### "Infinite Campus Gets the Job Done"

December 10, 2019

4.0

Overall, my experience with Infinite Campus has been very positive. Like any major system, there are going to be positives and negatives. Fortunately, with Infinite Campus, the things that it does well are the things that you are interacting with the most.

Pros

What I like most about Infinite Campus is the ease of use for the things I use daily. The lunch and attendance is easy to input. Also, the student contact information is very thorough and set up nicely with all of the information in one easy to access spot. The grading features are also simple and easy for even teachers who struggle with technology.

Cons

The grading features in Infinite Campus are easy to use. However, they can be more time consuming than necessary. Each different subject area is on a different page so it can be time consuming as a teacher with many classes to go through all of them. Another area of need, is the help features. The help features are fairly limited and it ends up being easier to ask a colleague, which adds more time to the process.

### "Infinite Campus"

November 28, 2024

4.0

Great! However, it times out after several minutes and I have to log in many times during the day.

Pros

Infinite Campus is easy to use and find information.

Cons

I cannot think of any drawbacks to this system.

### "User Experience: Have you heard of it?!"

April 1, 2025

1.0

This is a far more difficult system than is ever needed, for anything.

Pros

Parents can use it, and we can share things easily with admin.

Cons

Poor design, difficult to use, too many steps to complete a single action.

### "Simple, Organized SIS"

May 15, 2024

4.0

Infinite Campus is one of those "what you see is what you get" kinds of software. Those looking for a simple means of getting the job done without a lot of bells and whistles, this is the product for you. This can be great, but it doesn't really incentivize exploration or further training beyond the basics. Plus, the very-limited customization options can feel really limiting, prohibiting users from setting the product up in a way that is more beneficial for them.

Pros

The best part of Infinite Campus is how clean and easy to navigate it is. The simple "Instruction" view provides a clear means of moving through the common areas that a user needs. While some SISs have complex, busy interfaces, Infinite Campus operates with a "less is more" approach, which is great for users who aren't is tech savvy or don't have the comfort to dig in and explore on their own.

Cons

Infinite Campus's biggest strength can also be its biggest weakness. While it is great for users who aren't strong with technology, it can leave a lot to be desired for those who want a little more in their SIS. There isn't a lot of customization available, nor are there many lesser-known features that self-driven, curious users can discover.

### "Too expensive; Pop-up fees everywhere - Not for smaller districts"

May 31, 2021

3.0

I think their conversion and onbaording team is top-notch-- Extremely helpful and communication is fast and to the point. I just don't know that they're worth all the money. I think we'll be looking to switch to a more modern and cost-effective system like Alma once our contract is up.

Pros

\-The onboarding team is excellent. They include technical experts to try to find solutions when the sales team promises the world and then you find out everything is an extra charge. -The product is robust and is well connected to the requirements of various states. -It allows direct access to the db and is fairly easy to use once you get used to the interface.

Cons

\-Cost! Everything is a nickel and dime fee for various modules. And of course, to do feature A you need to buy a premium module with A-Z features (B-Z you'll never use). - Their sales process promises all the features you need but then you find out the core features are extremely limited. After signing-on, it feels like a bait and switch. - It ends up being an incredibly expensive product for a smaller school or a school with simpler needs. However they seem only concerned with the needs of big-dollar districts and are unreceptive to small districts. I want my district to get the best value for it's dollar and benefit our students and parents. - The sales team is unhelpful and full of excuses and seems more concerned with closing deals than actually helping customers.

### "Infinite Campus, and education management system with infinite possibilities!"

February 17, 2021

5.0

We have used it for about eight years, and every few weeks I learn about a new function that makes student data easier to manage and access.

Pros

I like the fact that student attendance, behavior, schedules, parent contacts, grade books, communication tools, and final grades are in one place and can be cross-referenced as necessary. I absolutely love the digital behavior referrals, that are instant and digital.

Cons

It was slightly complicated to navigate at first and to access its infinite functions.

### "Infinite Campus"

September 29, 2019

3.0

I have used Infinite Campus as a teacher for six years. While it does a great job of allowing access for parents and students to view their grades, it is clunky and difficult to navigate as a user.

Pros

Can easily enter grades for students for them to be able to see the instant that their score is entered. There is an app for both parents and students to help monitor their grades throughout the year.

Cons

The staff at our school has renamed this program to infinite clicks. It takes a huge amount of clicks with your mouse to get any task done. The interface is not user friendly and many staff members at our school have a difficult time using it.

### "Overall great, even with small annoyances"

April 10, 2025

4.0

Overall I am very happy that this exists because it makes my life easier, once I knew where to go to accomplish my tasks.

Pros

It is so nice to be able to handle all of my kids school updates, from adding money to their lunch account and calling them out of school due to sickness or doctor's appointments.

Cons

It is not as intuitive as I would like. There are fees in multiple locations, attendance things in multiple locations, etc. I also find it tends to log me out often, so that is a small annoyance.

### "Infinite Campus is Informative"

September 16, 2019

5.0

Overall my experience with Infinite Campus has been long term and positive. I used it as a student myself for my entire academic career, several times a week, and I absolutely loved that every single assignment or exam grade gets inputted and updated as soon as the teacher logs it in. It was an exciting (and nerve wracking!) time as a student but I remember as soon as the teacher would announce that grades were up, that the energy in the room would change and everyone would go home and log into Infinite Campus and then call each other (back before the days of cell phones and texting that is!). I know that Infinite Campus can bring families together and is a platform where students and families can log in together and figure out what is best for the student. I am happy to see that the students I teach now are having similar experiences and that parents are still involved in checking grades even today, because this is what is best for the child so that they can get any help or motivation that they need before the semester keeps moving along.

Pros

I used infinite campus for many years as a student and I always liked the layout and how my classes were lined up like my schedule so I could go through and check my progress in each one. I loved how the grades were already separated into formative and summative sections, reflecting the way the school graded us. As a very involved and "nerdy" student, I was constantly checking infinite campus and my grades. I liked that I could log in and keep track of my progress as a student any time of the day or night, and that it was always available for me even when I was up late studying and remembered I had a new grade in and was able to check it. I also really liked that this software helps families stay connected. My parents would log in at times to check in on me and I think this software really helps to keep parents in the loop because students at times get scared and avoid looking, or lie about their grades to their parents. Parents having the ability to log in allows for them to keep track of their child's grades and progress in every class and this allows them to support them and provide them with help before it is too late in the semester, and this has ample positive ripple affects.

Cons

What I liked least about this software was the layout. I have seen younger students get overwhelmed even though they are eager to check their grades. There are a lot of words on the screen at any time and it can be difficult for a younger student to figure out where to "go" on the page. Older students and perhaps parents/guardians who are not computer savvy may feel overwhelmed by the business of the screen at all times. The software itself is extremely useful but is a bit crowded in terms of user friendliness and the layout. As a tutor I have logged into Infinite Campus with my students and their parents and as a computer savvy person it still takes me a minute to adjust to everything going on the screen. I have had to teach parents and students where to go once I figured it out, and this is what I like least about the software because not everyone is that accustomed to navigating busy and crowded websites.

### "Easy and Effective Student Data System"

August 2, 2022

5.0

Pros

Infinite Campus has all the necessary components of educational monitoring. The entire user interface is easy to use and navigate. The home screen of the "Instruction" section is the control center, where daily data can be found. This is where you can see the students and classes you have that day, take attendance, and see what assignments are due or need to be graded. From there, it is easy to navigate to resources like rosters, gradebooks, messages, attendance logs, reports, student data, and more. I appreciate the ease of recording data, creating assignments, inputting grades, and accessing student information. The system also only allows you to access data for students rostered to you, so it does not compromise the privacy of other students in the school. The "Campus Tools" section contains useful tools such as reports, behavior monitoring and logs, messaging, and student data. I appreciate that when logging behavior reports in this section, they are automatically sent to my administration for review and follow up, so my admin is immediately aware of issues as they arise.

Cons

It would be useful to add in a feature that allows automatic communication with parents of students in each class so teachers can send emails, texts, or phone messages out to parents regarding student or class wide updates. Currently, Infinite Campus does not have a parent communication feature, so any contact made with parents has to be done and logged separately. With all the duties teachers are responsible for, it would be nice to have this all in one place and not need to use another system.

### "A+ for Infinite Campus"

October 22, 2019

5.0

My experience with Infinite Campus has been very positive. It is very easy for users to work from any location. The software is easy to use, even for new users. Confidential information has remained confidential. Parents and students use the app to keep up with grades

Pros

Infinite Campus allows me to view and input student information and records remotely. I can work from home, or when traveling to various locations on campus. The software is very easy to use. It also allows parents to access information in real time. Information can easily be transferred from district to district within the state, and from school to school within the district.

Cons

Information does not transfer as easily when students move from another state. There are occassional "glitches" but problems are solved quickly and confidential information has never been compromised.

### "Great way to keep up"

October 1, 2019

5.0

Once it is set up, everything is automatic. I can log in, get my children’s grades and schedule and upcoming events in a matter of minutes and but up-to-date. It’s been a great way for me to stay connected with my children’s education.

Pros

I am able to see what assignments my children have turned in, the grades they are receiving, their schedules and even keep up with their school events through the message center. My children can even log in using their login to see messages from teachers and see what is on the calendar and their grades. We can send and receive messages from their teachers.

Cons

You cannot see the student’s grades more than maybe two weeks in the past. So if you miss checking a week or so, you cannot see grades that could be negatively affecting their overall grades.

### "Infinite Campus Food Service"

July 17, 2017

5.0

We used another system but it never worked with our Student Information System. The numbers of our free/reduced students never matched and we spent hours looking for the problem.

Pros

Interacts with all parts of our Student Information System. User friendly and easy to navigate. Excellent support from the company. Each student has a unique number that is used whenever they come through the line. No one can tell what pay source a student is so it reduces the stigma of being a "free" student.

Cons

Cashiers hit the wrong keys sometimes but this can happen with any system. Students complain because they forget their PIN and it slows down the line.

### "Works for my school"

October 7, 2019

4.0

Overall, it's getting the job done for my daily needs as a teacher. I think parts of it could be more efficient.

Pros

As a teacher, I use Infinite Campus every day. I use the basic features it provides, such as signing myself in and taking my students' attendance. I also use it to access my special education caseload as well as general student information. I like that all of the student information is in one place and that it shows important information, such as student allergies or health conditions, clearly at the top of their profile.

Cons

Some of the features are not intuitive. For example, when I first log in, I'm under "campus tools," and I see "attendence" in a sidebar. However, that is not where I take attendance -- I have to click through to another area and then click on attendance in the sidebar. This isn't immediately obvious and not very efficient.

### "Teen Son Using Infinite Campus "

September 11, 2019

4.0

I have this app on my phone so I know if there's anything going on with my son's academics, and I do receive alerts. But I can only access the grade book on a desktop computer.

Pros

Infinite Campus sends me alerts whenever my son is late to class or misses an assignment. I can visit grade books for each class and see what homework he's missing and what he still needs to turn in.

Cons

The gradebook is hard to navigate and many teachers don't input the assignments or update the grade book. Sometimes I receive irrelevant push notifications.

### "Amazing upgrade to our SIS, easy to use and always available"

July 11, 2018

4.0

Easy to use, extremely powerful product. Able to combine all of our campus programs into this one piece of software.

Pros

We recently changed from Schoolmaster, which was old and archaic. Infinite campus makes everything extremely easy to find, and combines all aspects of our campus in one easy to use program. This was a familiar product in some aspects as the state uses it already

Cons

This was a huge change from our last SIS, so the training was quite intensive, as was the exporting and importing of data to the new database.

I love the way that I can look at all kinds kinds student data with just a few clicks!

Pros

With Infinite campus, all of our student info is in one place. I never have to search for IEPS, medical info o allergies, or previous grades. It's all there. I can put in multiple grades at one time, and it's sup easy!

Cons

I wish that I could see student grades for a previous semester on the same page a curren grades. That would enable m to see I their grades are improving or not.

### "Infinite Campus"

November 5, 2018

4.0

The program allows information to be available to anyone with access to find information about students that is needed quickly and easily.

Pros

It is easy to use. New employees are able to start using it immediately because it is user friendly. Very helpful to use a program that is web based so work can be done from anywhere. It seems to be a program that can be customized for different school districts' needs.

Cons

There have been times when multiple people are adding information to a document and one person's information is not saved. There's no indication of this until you reopen it later and your stuff is just not there. This may have been fixed as I have not had this happen in a long time. The only other problem is that if I have access to a student for special education, I only have access to their special ed documents, not their schedule or attendance. This could be a feature that my district does though.

November 20, 2019

4.0

Overall it’s a great system. With a few tweaks it could easily be one of the best systems around.

Pros

This program can be customized to fit school or campus needs. Communication logs, data, and grades can all be stored. It’s also compatible with other programs for uploading students.

Cons

Many of the reports you need are not easily accessible. Somethings require you to go in student by student to check. This is often time consuming.
