The support service is terrific\! > > **Cons**: We have no complaints and no plans to discontinue our use of this product. > > We have been happy Option C users from the beginning. We have no plans to change this system since it answers all our needs. We love the Catholic nature of it as well\! ----- ### "An essential component for elementary Catholic Education" — 5.0/5 > **Kellie** | *15 December 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: OptionC is extremely simple and intuitive to implement and utilize on a daily basis. When compared to competitors in the SIS field, OptionC's functionality makes everyone's lives easier from teacher to administration. Customer service is responsive and consistent in their responses and their documentation for support easy to use and share. The ability to infuse Catholicism into our SIS has always been a happy bonus during accreditation and the Catholic resources provided within the system are enjoyed by the teachers. > > **Cons**: I don't think it is currently built to serve a high school. ----- ### "Elementary School" — 3.0/5 > **MARGARET** | *16 August 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I am the admin here at St Margaret School. Option C is user friendly. I like the data entry, alerts and emails. I like the breakdown it gives you when entering a new student with all the necessary options. One of the greatest parts of Option C is the training and support\! That for me is a plus plus plus. > > **Cons**: I get constant complaints from the teachers that they can't do a mass email thru Option C to all their class parents. They are not interesting in using the private messaging. Hoping this will be available soon\! ----- ### "Good Product--Lousy customer Loyalty" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *21 September 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are a lot of features that I have found to be easy, there's a lot to the program. There's a learning curve, but once you have it, you're golden. > > **Cons**: They charge us for the enrollment we had at the end of the year. Of course, our enrollment went down. They will not adjust our bill to reflect 41 students less than last year. Our required State reports do not process at all. We were told the report would be accessible but it does not work. > > At first, the support was great, but now their support is not timely at all. Their billing department is closed in the middle of the day. ----- ### "The Price was Right with Option-C" — 4.0/5 > **Jackie** | *18 January 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Having the capability to observe educators' entries, I can assist, observe, modify, investigate, and review at any geographical location, especially at the comfort of my home. Computer or cell phone provide this convenience for all users. > > **Cons**: I wish there was a way to eliminate reports that are not being used by my school office management. Some categories appear repetitive. > > Option-C customer service representatives always treated me with support and with respect whenever I had a problem or question. With over 10 year experience I appreciate the classroom management and school management procedures. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/56570/optionc?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/56570/optionc) ## 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
