"Simple and easy to use Music app"

Pros: Easy to use and tack student progress with this music application.

"Review"

Overall: It’s a fun complementary tool that I sometimes use.

Pros: That it works on different levels. You can slow down the speed. It’s usually easy to follow for the students.

Cons: It’s sometimes lagging a bit when slowing down the speed. The selection of songs. The students often ask for songs not available.

"Such an amazing tool for our students!"

Pros: The Solfeg.io system is incredible! I love the ability to modify settings to include or remove parts, rhythms, instruments, etc. I have used this in my classes so far this year as a tool for sight reading multiple parts at one time. The students LOVE that they use current songs and that they get to learn more about reading from a whole score, rather than just seeing their part. I love the tempo fluctuation, the ability to scroll, and the feature of the QR code for easy access!

Cons: MY district has not allowed for a subscription of this service yet, so that's my only con! This is an amazing educational tool!

"Kids really liked it"

Pros: My students had to work on music at home due to COVID-19. I assigned them music from two different websites and Solfe.io was the program they enjoyed the most. It was much easier to use and had fun music.

Cons: I think it would be great if the songs that have harmony have the part notated so students can sing duets. Also, maybe a way they could record themselves.

Reasons for Choosing Solfeg.io: I thought the students would like it better.
Reasons for Switching to Solfeg.io: The program was difficult to use and the music was not fun.

Vendor Response

By Solfeg.io on October 23, 2022
Thank you for your review, Carolie! I will forward the suggestion on harmony notation for duets to our technical team! We are always happy to get suggestions from teachers! :) Have a great day!

"Give it a try!"

Overall: Mostly positive, except that my school has no budget for additional software, so I am limited to the free songs.

Pros: Ease of use. I prefer to not be told how many characters to use - that's bogus.

Cons: Loading time Use screen was confusing and busy for students

"A solid product for what it is"

Pros: The relevance of the music. Students appreciated it! I also appreciate how, as a company, they are constantly looking to improve and add more features.

Cons: I don't have any huge cons to mention. It hasn't quite lined up with my classroom needs once we returned from virtual school, so I have not used it much since.

"Not bad, but I don't have a need for it"

Overall: It was ok, but when you have multiple classes, and a large quantity of students, it makes it harder to justify when I already things in place. Not willing to start over.

Pros: The student tracking is helpful for sure, but I already have other ways of doing this that are frankly, free.

Cons: I wish there was a better pricing option.
