# SOFOS Reviews **Vendor:** OBTO **Category:** [Student Information Systems (SIS)](https://www.g2.com/categories/student-information-systems-sis) **Average Rating:** 4.8/5.0 **Total Reviews:** 2 ## About SOFOS Use Data Management and Real-Time Collaboration for Adaptive Learning in the Classroom We’ve interviewed teachers across the country, and we’ve heard a common story: that truly advanced and effective digital learning solutions are not for general education. “They cost too much” “They intimidate teachers” “They don’t fit the needs of my school or my students” Here’s the reality: No matter if you’re teaching in a flagship university or a small K-12 school system, student and learning management is a must. SOFOS addresses this need by providing an affordable, scalable, and tailored student management system built from the ground up with students in mind. ## SOFOS Reviews ### 1. Useful for IT with Universities **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gabriella W. | Certified Peer Recovery Coach, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 29, 2021 **What do you like best about SOFOS?** I love the ability to separate appropriate areas and it already has LAN, WAN, and DMZ populated. It makes it easy to ensure you can separate areas of the university. It allows us to put all of the universities together. We can put grades, payments, access, etc... together. We are able to include parents in the process if the student allows it. We can run analytic reports and are able to cut cost by reducing the time it takes to troubleshoot. **What do you dislike about SOFOS?** Nothing. I like using SOFOS to ensure all of the technical issues are taken care of. It is easy to navigate and ensures the necessary functions are up and running. **Recommendations to others considering SOFOS:** Start the installation early. You will find some quicks and kinks that you can easily call IT to help with but, it takes some time. Getting all of your systems integrated should be done during breaks not during school sessions. It makes it too difficult to do when you have all of the students and parents logging in at the same time. **What problems is SOFOS solving and how is that benefiting you?** The only struggle is the initial setup. It does take some time but, overall the benefits allow our university to function smoothly. ### 2.
