Their customer service is excellent. They help you to cater your needs and modify templates and features.

Pros

Knewton, like any online tool, takes some time to adjust to. More than a years our school has been using Knewton, we have been able to tweak it to fit our needs in terms of report cards or grading, attendance and biometric also.

Cons

comparison to other online school management systems, we have had the most flexibility and ease of use with Knewton.

I managed my school's financial data easily with international and modern accounting standards and get reports of student i can say after this for parent no child left behind. i am able to monitor student progress by top 10 and weak 10 as attendance and marks. i am also satisfied with its KEEC which is knewton entry exit control system. with this i can monitor and record the visitors and parent can get sms alert of student when he/she reached and left from the school. One word is that its Complete School management system and Software.

Pros

Well organised and commented code, easy to follow through ad make just about any customisation you need. Good stuff! Nice design Awesome development and Easy to Use, i also asked the team for customization when i was buying this. team did not charged me for this even after purchasing the life time version still they are giving me updates. very good thing is that the Support is live on its client panel. its awesome.
