I'm easily able to toggle between my roles at the school and find the system to be seamless both as a parent and as an employee. > > **Cons**: I wish there were a way to merge the calendars I like onto my google calendar. Right now I am able to import everything into veracross easily but there's not a way to export calendars that others put in onto mine. > > I am an edtech who manages students, courses, grade levels, divisions and directories in veracross. We had an easy transition from our old SIS and the courses offered by veracross were helpful for training faculty. Parents find it easy to see student grades and news updates. ----- ### "Veracross has a clean look that is easy to navigate and combine many features." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *10 July 2018* | Education Management > > **Pros**: I like that everything is in one learning management system. Budgets, class lists, discipline forms, and the school calendar are all in one spot. I can easily email groups of parents with one click. I can see what my past report card comments have been and track student attendance. In the past we have used several learning management systems for all of the previously listed items and it was a lot to learn at once. This makes everything much smoother. > > **Cons**: I have multiple sections of the same course. I am unable to email them all at the same time, which is something I wish I could do. If I want to email all 4th grade parents it requires me sending several emails through veracross. Our previous learning management system let me check off which classes I wanted to email and I could send a bulk email to all of my courses. This is a small inconvenience in an otherwise great software. ----- ### "Veracross Review" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *04 September 2018* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: - Easy to use - Support various functions of school (Admission, Classes, Accounting, Billing...) - Many add-on modules available - Mobile-friendly - Tech Support > > **Cons**: - Limited customization, very fews things are automated (workaround mostly needed) - Two-factor costs extra ----- ### "Veracross - great for independent schools" — 5.0/5 > **Kathleen** | *05 April 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I am a true fan of Veracross, I've worked with a lot of accounting software in my 4 decades of work. And I found Veracross so user friendly. > > **Cons**: When we installed Veracross it was during COVID and I felt that the training was unreasonable timetable. It would great, if that was the only thing that you had to do was to train on this software, but we were working through COVID, the PPLoan and everything else. Then after the training, the trainers moved on if you had a question you had to reach out via email and wait for someone to respond. > > I would highly recommend Veracross, it is a great accounting software. The accounts payable system is pretty easy to use as well. The FA module works great too. And I've received great response help from the online help ticket system. Sometimes you need to wait a bit, but typically the help is very fast. ----- ### "Not very intuitive, but functional once you learn how to use it\!" — 4.0/5 > **Reanna** | *06 October 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like the Query feature. It's very usefull for generating reports based on specific criteria. As a school, we often need to pull a list of students based on certain things and this feature makes it easy to do so. I also love their Support team. I always get almost immediate answers to my support tickets. They provide screenshots and make it very easy to understand how to do something. I love the upload feature. Uploading Journals or even Student Charges make it much easier to do than doing it manually - very time saving. > > **Cons**: There is not a lot of room for error in this software, but that can be a good thing also. It is not as easy to edit transactions once something is posted... so you need to go through a few hoops in order to reverse and fix. It's extra work, but it forces you to really think before you post something, and is better for auditing purposes. I think fixing the way a payment is applied should be easier. Parents can often pay the wrong invoice by accident. Once a payment is applied, it's a bit difficult to reapply that payment to another invoice. > > When I first started using Veracross, I really did not like it. I thought it was one of the most difficult platforms I had ever used. My previous CRM was Netsuite, and this was like a night and day comparison in regards to userfriendlyness. However, after using Veracross for about a year, I can honestly say it has grown on me and learning how to do things on this software that was not possible or much more difficult on Netsuite, has somewhat changed my mind. This is my first experience at a school, so I'm not sure whether there are other software systems that are easier and better than Veracross - but so far I have really grown to like this one and their support team has made using and learning how to do things on the software very easy. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/20395/veracross?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/20395/veracross) ## 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 | | | ko | | ----- ## Structured Data
