### "My view"

February 5, 2019

4.0

It's been wonderful actually.

Pros

It's user friendly with diverse ways to operate, search, input of almost anything concerning the school, from student's records & result to admininstrative features, to account features etc

Cons

To be sincere, the database needs to be properly worked on. There should be consistency in delivery of your service so as not to lose customers. I'm saying this because of the experience we had in the school i work with the use of the software. There was a time that everything i was uploading were just bouncing. i will upload today, i will find it missing tomorrow, before you worked on it. The security of the software should be tighter, so that you won't have to use MySQL to check somethings when your customers are defaulting in one way or the other. Thanks.

### "SAF, the best software among the rest for school management"

January 29, 2019

3.0

In my school, we used it to tackle the problem of result uploading issues that arises as a result of the previous cheap software we are using, to which most of our students left our school for a more better managed school, but with the introduction of SAF, more students are now aware of the kind of software we are using, so majority of our displaced students and even other students are now in our school because of the new software we are using.

Pros

It is highly user friendly, it also requires little or small technical know how to operate it efficiently.

Cons

I like least the fact that even with little mega bytes, you can be able to use the software efficiently.

April 5, 2016

5.0

As shared above in the quick summary, the software is just cute for our educational system. The only challenge i can pick out for now is the computer literacy level of some of the teachers and majorly the parents. But that notwithstanding can not be compared with the enormous benefit and sigh of relief it has given majority of our teachers in collation and compilation of their work.

### "One of the best School Management Solutions"

April 25, 2016

5.0

I have worked as an Admin in a few schools and most of them use different School Management Solutions. We find ourselves adjusting our systems & processes to fit these solutions, but FlexiSAF is so flexible that it fits exactly how you want it. The setting up process was a nightmare and I was worried if I would ever figure it out, but now I can't even believe how much work I can get done from my phone, on my couch, at home!

April 28, 2016

I think SAFSMS reduces ones workload, it is designed with the difficulties faced by school administrators in mind. The web interface is good but I believe there's still room for improvement in terms of automating most processes and reducing time spent configuring.

The management of SAFSMS did well by introducing this software to NPF schools and I wish they will introduce it as well to more schools in our country. It is reliable and highly technical. And the software is somehow flexible.

May 5, 2016

The templates are a bit rigid and difficult to go around, but beyond that I find that it makes work easy. I think its a very good tool to use in a school, especially how it takes care of the result at the end of each term.

### "Work Simplified"

July 8, 2019

4.0

Saf School Management Software helps my school to solve the problem of spending time on students continuous assessment booklets and result sheet and also to save time and reduce stress in preparing comprehensive record sheets and carrying booklets about.

Pros

Saf School Management Software is uniquely different and easy to use. I like its simplicity, customer service feedback and it saving mode, that is saving without internet to save later when connected is a good one. My record as a teacher has been simplified, thanks to Saf.

Cons

The software is very nice and easy to use but I don't like when someone would need to make corrections on student's record in a previous term he/she will need to inform the school Admin. to take it back to the term you want to make corrections on.

### "SAFSMS THE BEST SCHOOL MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE EVER"

January 29, 2019

4.0

With SAFSMS we were able to resolve the problems of calculation errors in result sheets and the delay of its issuance to learners. Another big challenge solved was the repeated errors in the Account records; with SAFSMS we were able to have excellent and up to date fees records. With this software, our staff have realized a tremendous experience in the ICT. BRAVO! Flexisaf, keep us updated always!

Pros

What I like most about SAFSMS is its simplicity and being user friendly, also its time and energy saving.

Cons

What I like least about this software is the unavailability of a chat button for the software users.

January 29, 2019

Enrollment of students, time frame settings, examination verification, approval and comments, allocation of subjects to teachers etc.

Pros

The comprehensiveness for school management

Cons

The slowness when login in which I think might be due to traffic.

### "AMAZING SOFTWARE FULL OF DYNAMISM "

April 6, 2016

5.0

Pros: (1) It facilitates speed and accuracy (2) Its flexibility and synchronization with any electronic gadget is highly commendable (3) It is invulnerable irrespective of the thousands of users (4) You stay at home and do your office work (5) Using SAFSMS, loss of information like school results is completely avoided. The pros is endless. Cons: (1) Downloading empty score sheets subject by subject for a class takes time. I suggest an option for downloading empty score sheets for a class at once into a single PDF document (2) There is need for software update: E.g. We in Police Secondary School, Ukana want SAFSMS to show "WITHDRAWAL" instead of "Repeat" for a student who happens to repeat a particular class twice. (3) No template for uploading parent. (4) List of students report (Statistics) has too much column headings. Example, Class and Arm column headings are not important for they reduce Student ID column making students' registration numbers not visible.
