What do you like best about SchoolMessenger School Notification?

All calls go out with great reporting. They roll the calls out in blocks in order to not overload the system, but they will guarantee all calls are out within a set amount of time. The reporting is excellent. You can find out how many people never answered, hung up, listened to part of the message, or listened to the entire message. It numbers are busy, it will call them back. We have not experienced any outages. We place roughly 100 calls a year using this system from the admin level. We place thousands of calls a month when tied into the lunch money balance system to notify families of low balances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SchoolMessenger School Notification?

It's a bit expensive. It does a great job of being usable for even the less tech savvy folks in my district. The admin side is not too difficult to deal with, but finding the path to block numbers or even unblock them is clunky. It is not user friendly in that regard. You need to do that blocking when parents are either not honest about their phone number or they change numbers and never tell you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SchoolMessenger School Notification?

I like that this program creates an anonymous way for the staff to send in tips or a notification to school officials. This is important so that school communities remain safe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SchoolMessenger School Notification?

There's nothing I dislike. This program is very straight forward to use. However, I would hope staff or students would contact the right people themselves instead of depending on this system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Software Used weekly!"

This software allows school personnel to send out a weekly blast to parents and staff reviewing the week and providing important announcements to people’s cell phones! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SchoolMessenger School Notification?

The process to which you must deactivate your phone to go straight to voicemail instead of always ringing when an announcement is being blasted out is difficult and confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
