Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The versatility and customization of this system have been particularly impressive. The adaptability of the platform allows it to cater to our specific needs, unlike many other rigid systems out there. Its flexible nature lets us modify and adapt the system based on our evolving requirements. Whether it's the implementation of a new policy or accommodating a change in the curriculum, the system has always been up to the task.
  • PCR Educator has exceeded our expectations as an exceptional partner. Their commitment and flexibility during implementation catered to our complex requirements. As a technology enthusiast, I'm truly impressed by their innovative approach. What sets PCR Educator apart is their unparalleled level of personalized service. The support team has been attentive, responsive, and understanding, ensuring our institution receives the assistance it needs. Their cutting-edge technology and forward-thinking product roadmap showcase their commitment to staying on the cutting edge. PCR Educator's agility in implementing new features and embracing emerging trends is remarkable, enhancing our institution's operations. Overall, PCR Educator has earned my admiration and trust. Their comprehensive solutions, personalized service, and dedication to progress make them an invaluable partner. I wholeheartedly recommend PCR Educator to any educational institution seeking a visionary, technology-driven solution.
  • Having used both PCR Educator and Blackbaud as a customer, I cannot stress enough the exceptional functionality and service offered by PCR Educator. The implementation of Blackbaud left me extremely frustrated as it lacked the ability to perform basic tasks that PCR Educator effortlessly handled. Furthermore, my experience with customer service at Blackbaud was negatively affected by frequent staff turnover, resulting in new support personnel who were unfamiliar with the system. It is astonishing that Blackbaud required an additional $20k for an account consultant to address these issues. In contrast, PCR Educator's system has consistently proven to be reliable, user-friendly, and cost-effective. Their support team is outstanding, always ready to assist and possessing in-depth knowledge of their system. It is evident to me that PCR Educator is the superior option for schools aiming to streamline their operations effectively and efficiently.

Cons

  • The DAT reports are difficult to maneuver until you learn the various tables of how everything is connected.
  • High prices on annual fees (but totally worth it). However, their annual fee is all-inclusive, so we get unlimited users/training/support/project management.
  • It is disappointing that they do not provide a library system within the PCR Educator ecosystem. It would be greatly beneficial if we could have our library integrated in PCR Educator database.
