About

Jupiter is a Learning Management System (LMS) and Student Information System (SIS) for K-12, scalable from the smallest charter schools to districts with 100,000’s of students. The gradebook teachers love! Flexible. Intuitive shortcuts. Homework online. Tests online. Essays online. Lessons online. Simplify scheduling, attendance, referrals, and record-keeping. Turn big data into decisions! Jupiter is the innovation leader in ed tech. We were the first to develop an all-in-one LMS and SIS, which we built from the ground up as a web-hosted service back when most competitors were retrofitting their old standalone software. We developed nearly all our features in-house, not acquired from third parties, so we have the most integrated solution available. Founded in 2004 and now with employees in 7 states, we serve a total of 4 million students in all 50 states.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I like the "help" support; I don't think I've ever had to ask anyone else to support me because of the accessible information. Great that teachers can edit the contact information and add/delete students from classes. Also, options to weight graders, record extra credit and edit codes such as "incomplete", etc.
  • I love Jupiter Grades and have used it for 15 years. It is very user-friendly for both teachers and families. When our district began to use another grading program, the teachers were so angry we paid for it out of our own pockets, the district agreed to pay for us to continue to use it for 2 more years. Unfortunately, we can not use it anymore and we have had to use another inferior program. I liked that students and parents had easy access to their grades without having to go through our district to get a password. You can print progress reports easily for parent signatures for those parents who do not check their child's grades or email. It is easy to make seating charts. It is a well-thought-out grading program.
  • The responsiveness of the Help team has always been timely and detailed. The whole format is useful.

Cons

  • I don't think there are any cons. I and my families use JupiterEd more frequently than Aeries, our district database and parent portal, due to how easy it is for parents and guardians to access the app and communicate directly with teachers.
  • I can honestly say I can not think of anything I didn't like.
  • Beginning of the year, it's always a struggle to figure out how to start new gradebooks.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • There was a help function on the assignments that was appreciated. Getting marks back instantly was a pro.
  • Pearson feels a little bare bones compared to some of the other textbook giants, and their textbooks are just as poorly written, but on the software end, I've actually had the least amount of issues with them out of the big companies. They're simple and don't look quite as modern, but it gets the job done well enough. The etextbooks need work, but they're acceptable.

Cons

  • Program was always slow to load and not as easy to use as other programs. My biggest complaint is the amount of errors in the text book and on the assignments and exams. It took me quite awhile to try to find a number and get through to support to be told that they don't take corrections from students. Which is probably why there continues to be so many errors.
  • The content of the etextbooks is the biggest con. Like all the other textbooks giants, they're badly written and often have issues. At best the material is suitable for intro classes, but certainly not for higher levels of study. Often the etextbook by itself costs the same as the physical book and the etextbook combined, which makes no sense to me.
