Once I learned how to navigate both online and desktop features, I felt more in control of what was going in my classroom and with my own children. I like the fact it was secure and that it made it easy to manage grades for both teachers and students. > > **Cons**: From the use of it as a teacher and parent, I honestly don't have any complaints at this time. Like any software, it's great until it's not, or if there are technological glitches, which, thank goodness, I haven't experienced to date. > > Overall, I really enjoyed learning how to use this tool and even showing parents and students how to use to stay on top of their grades, advocating for themselves and parents to stay in the know. ----- ### "The Skyward Student Management Suite is the best solution for SIS in K-12" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *27 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Skyward Student Management Suite is the best available SIS/BIS for K-12. The product is 100% web based, all Windows integrated software with IIS and MSSQL, is fast, efficient, and the best database table layout of any product we have every used. 10/10 > > **Cons**: The only real improvement I would like to see with the Skyward Student Management Suite would be the ability to easily identify and kill long and expensive reports that can slow down the system. > > The Skyward Student Management Suite has been a major improvement over the past two SIS/BIS systems we have used with the ISD. Support has been excellent, it easily integrates with ClassLink and MFA, and the system has been extremely easy to maintain and upgrade. ----- ### "User Experience... have you heard of it?" — 1.0/5 > **Kimberly** | *2 October 2025* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Skyward is a fairly complex and comprehensive system with plenty of options for employees to use at work, and decent privacy systems. > > **Cons**: We recently had to switch over to Skyward because the state required it. It's been an utter nightmare. We've had more problems with expense reimbursement and student and teacher management than we've ever had. > > Honestly, it's an outdated system with a terribly overcomplicated setup, and the worst setup ever. If I could, I'd stick with a better option. ----- ### "Skyward better than anything" — 5.0/5 > **Austin** | *10 June 2026* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It really helps with managing grades to see if you need help of to improve and it is really fun to go on to compete with who has the best grades > > **Cons**: P.S. I use it for Marysville Middle School and it is amazing to use for your grade and if you get ungrounded ----- ### "CRAPPY APP - DO BETTER" — 1.0/5 > **Amanda** | *6 September 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Can see the kids grades and that's about it. I don't like much else about the app. It's not user friendly > > **Cons**: Customer support SUCKS. Can't log in half the time because the website/app forgets your password. Says you will get an email soon but never sends one. App is not user friendly. Every time I try to log in it forgets my password and I have to contact I.T. for a reset and even if I remember my password it will still not let me log in if I log out after that. Absolutely ridiculous. > > CRAPPY. I've had this app for 5-6 years now and I've only ever been able to log into it 3 times. I hate that. It's really annoying ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/2185/skyward-school-management?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/2185/skyward-school-management) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
