### "Infinite Campus Gets the Job Done"

December 8, 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.

March 31, 2025

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 13, 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 28, 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 16, 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 24, 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 7, 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 Easy with Awesome Support"

December 4, 2018

5.0

I do like this software. The company is very accommodating. They work hard to customize the software for your school. I can't say enough good about the support, which is huge when you are using a software of this complexity.

Pros

The easy of use has got to be my number one. The look of the software is comfortable. Learning curve is slight. If you know student record keeping, you will have no trouble in this software. The user setup is a big plus. You can setup user groups then add the users to that group. No individual settings have to be made. Each user has access to only what their position requires. No worries that someone will mess with areas they are not trained in. The rights setup allows you to choose who can Read Only and who has Write or Delete access. I like the fact that you have the option to have an onsite software administrator. Most of the users never need to contact Infinite Campus support as their issues are resolved locally. Exporting data could not be easier. You can create custom reports and choose to export them into several formats. A BIG pro is the support. Infinite Campus has a support group that will stick with you until your problem is resolved. Their Campus Community link is right in the software, so, if a phone call is not what you want to do, submit a case online or you have access to endless learning documents, videos, or tutorials. If you need more than that, they will come onsite or you can utilize their training center in MN. With so many components in the software, it would take a book to report on it all. This software will meet your needs.

Cons

Reports are always an issue. There is a bit more of a learning curve here than in the other parts of the software. Although, I have used other student records software, IC reporting is probably the easiest to use, but still tedious.

### "A+ for Infinite Campus"

October 19, 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.

### "Infinite Campus "

April 23, 2019

4.0

Pros

I like that my grade-book, attendance, and behavior management are all in one place. It is easy to run reports many ways and gives you an option to color code grades.

Cons

Sometimes the program can be glitchy. I do not like that I cannot add an assignment to all of my classes at once; I have to add the assignment for each class individually. I wish there were more options to color code the grade book further.

### "Great way to communicate"

February 5, 2020

5.0

Overall, Infinite Campus has been a great tool for communicating with students and caregivers. The ease of use for both the teacher updating grades and information as well as the ease of use for the students and caregivers to access is very helpful.

Pros

With Infinite Campus, parents and caregivers have update access to their child/s grades, lunch account balance, schedule, documents that need to be filed, and many other tools that are helpful. Infinite Campus allows teachers to update grades, flag them as late or missing, and make notes if needed.

Cons

At this current time, I do not feel there are any cons to this software, however, I often feel that a section in which parents can comment or mark that they acknowledged a grade of some sort.

### "Great for teacher reviews and grading"

October 22, 2019

5.0

I love the way that parents are able to see the progress of their students and be able to be informed at their children's progress. This makes it easy for them to communicate with teachers in knowing how to help students be successful at school.

Pros

Easy to communicate with parents how their children are performing in school. Easy way to add grades and give semester averages for students Follows the children's progress through all grades

Cons

Parents sometimes have trouble understanding how the program works The login process can be confusing to parents who have not used the software before

### "Infinite Campus Review"

May 25, 2021

4.0

Overall, I have had a good experience with Infinite Campus. I have used it for 11 years now and it is very beneficial to me as a teacher.

Pros

I really like the organizational features the best. I also like the different options that Infinite Campus allows me to have for seeing grades and attendance of my students. Infinite Campus also makes it very easy to enter new grading tasks.

Cons

I would like to have more customizable reports. Sometimes it is hard to manipulate the reports to be exactly what I would like. Hopefully, creating reports will become easier in the near future.

### "Good for tracking and storing info"

December 5, 2019

5.0

It is easy, easy to update info on profiles, can use it got many other things that are needed for school. Bus schedules etc

Pros

I like that this software is easy to use once you got the hang of it. Profiles could be linked between school and parents. So multiple kids have one parent and they all connected and showed up on their profiles.

Cons

It crashed a lot and everything was online so we always had to have a back up profile printed Incase of it crashing.

Pros

Updates in the past few years have improved functionality greatly. Student information is organized simply and is easily accessible. Student/Parent portal displays information in an easy to read format.

Cons

Some functions such as the parent messenger are not intuitive and can be difficult to use. Adapting the gradebook to meet the needs of Standards-Based Learning and Assessment may be difficult depending on how the district wants grades displayed.

### "Infinite Campus Use"

October 12, 2019

4.0

This database is a great tool to track students and their progress. We can also look at grades, transcripts, attendance, gpa's. This database is a one stop shop for a student's overall progress and the parent portal is a great tool for parents.

Pros

What I like about this software is its ability to create great reports. It also gives you the ability to store photos on the records. Software is made specifically for educational institutions.

Cons

Navigating can be a bit confusing at times. There are a lot of windows to click on and if you don't write down directions, you will be stuck trying to remember how to get to a particular window.

May 7, 2017

5.0

Pros

I liked how easy it was to use and transfer grade-book settings from year to year as well as the customized grade reporting. While almost every program used for grading or attendance has these features, this system was the most straightforward and intuitive I've used.

Cons

It's gotten better in terms of student/parent interface over the past few years, although I sometimes get frustrated as setting up online assignments from class to class can be tedious. Also, it seems to work better with some web browsers(IE) than others(Chrome).

Infinite Campus is a great attendance tool. It is very easy to use for that function. It also has a grade book and messenger tools.

4.0

Pros

You can check in on student behavior and attendance and have an easy way to communicate with parents.

Cons

There are too many ways to do the same thing and this program is not the most user-friendly. It needs a major update, but if you have no other option, this can get the job done.

### "Great Software for Educational Needs"

July 25, 2019

5.0

Pros

This software is user friendly, and has an endless amount of features to track, report, and collect data for students in our districts. It connects through the district through other schools, and has numerous capabilities other, similar, software programs do not. One of the features we like most about this product is that we can get very detailed with the emergency and guardian contacts within each student.

Cons

The price point is not as comparable to other software programs who offer similar accessibility and features.
