Scout SIS

As an instructor and parent, I’m actually loving Scout. I accept that they are a new company and appreciate that when an issue arises, they immediately work to fix it. They listen to what our needs are and create things where needed. My paperwork time has decreased significantly and as soon as all of the bugs are removed, I’m sure I’ll be able to give it 5 stars.

It is about as bad as it could be at recognizing written text. Just disable it already. My 5th grader could design a more intuitive and user friendly app. This is really bad. I wish our school would find a different tool for work samples and attendance. Hope they’re not paying a lot for this dumpster fire of an application.

My children’s charter school uses this program to take attendance and upload work samples. This app is extremely slow, it takes me forever to mark my children’s attendance (many times the buttons are unresponsive as well). Also, it automatically logs all of my daughter’s activity from her online math program. When I go in to log her other subjects it doesn’t allow me to keep the page scrolled down so I cannot click on the “add more engagement” button.
