They posted inappropriate content and the intent was lost within two weeks, Pros I could see the good intentions behind the designers, and the administrators who put Minga into effect at our school. Cons Giving students the ability to post on a school-wide stream is dangerous.

Response from Vendor November 23, 2021 Hey Jeff, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about Minga. We are sorry to hear that your schools intentions with Minga did not quite come to fruition, launching Minga can be a delicate process at certain schools and needs to have some serious goals and tangible efforts behind the launch, above all we are sorry we didn't provide you with the tools you needed to effectively launch. We agree that sometimes students should not have full freedom to post on the main school feed which is why we offer role based restrictions (teachers/staff, SL, students). Minga recommends that posting is limited to teachers during the first few weeks of implementation. For help please check out this link:https://minga.helpdocs.com/managecontent/managing-posting-permissions. We would love to talk to you and your school about how we can rewind the clock. Please contact us at support@minga.io so we can create the community experience that minga was meant to have. - Jovana from Minga EW Em W. Teacher Education Management ### "Fun engagement tool" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 November 15, 2021 This is a really fun tool- I tell my students it is like Harry Potter Hogwart Classes but for our school Pros This app makes it fun and easy for students to participate more in the school community, and keeps them better informed of events happening Cons It is hard to schedule events in club sections, and the club events don't show up to all students Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor November 23, 2021 Hey Em! It's so great to hear from you, and we are super grateful for the amazing review! We love the Harry Potter House comparison, it's a perfect way to introduce students to Minga! Thanks for sharing your disappointment about scheduling events in club sections and calendar functionality. When creating an event in a club it only shows up in the school calendar for members of that club, as to keep things organized for the students. If you would like to invite nonmembers to a club event, you can create a general event and mark it as "Hosted" by the club of your choice. If you come across more issues please feel free to email us your questions at support@minga.io. We are happy to let you know that we are coming out with an updated launch this upcoming week that should make creating events in clubs even easier, but for good measure here is a link that should clear things up: https://minga.helpdocs.com/managecontent/adding-an-event. Thank you again for your review! - Jovana from Minga AM Amy M. Technology Integrator Education Management ### "Minga as Community Builder in Elementary School" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 November 12, 2021 Overall I am pleased with the response from families - they seem to enjoy the social media format of the classroom updates. I love that we have been able to open up our classrooms to each other, and the admin have commented about how nice it is to see more of the amazing things happening around the building. I am SO impressed with the help and response from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and her team. When I have a question (often) she gets back to me right away. When issues arise they are addressed before the day is out. Best of all, they always listen to our ideas or suggestions for ways to make Minga better and in some cases our suggestions have been implemented. Pros The software is easy to use, and easy to implement across a wide range of abilities. Managing users is straightforward and the dashboard tools for doing so are very helpful. Teachers find it very easy to use and engagement across the school on what kids are doing has skyrocketed. Cons We are using it slightly differently than most - no students yet, just for school to home communication. So the cons would be that much of the existing knowledge base is for grades 6-12 with many of the features geared toward an interactive social media format. Also it does not (yet!) sync with google calendar or with our SIS. But we are hopeful this is coming soon.

Response from Vendor November 23, 2021 Wow, thank you so much for your review Amy, this was super helpful and Minga appreciates you and your time greatly! We love hearing about all the different ways the Minga app is used and personalized! At the end of the day, our goal is to help get students involved so to hear that "engagement across the school has skyrocketed" is some of the best feedback we've ever received. We are also pleased to hear that our customer service and feature implementation is going above and beyond for you, and we can assure you that calendar sync is on our Minga RoadMap for the future. Thanks again! - Jovana from Minga. NG Nicole G. Middle School Teacher, Grade 6/Spanish E-Learning ### "Minga brings the school community together!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 12, 2021 Teachers can easily create clubs, homeroom groups, etc. Students feel more connected and excited to be a part of our school because it offers this chance to be a part of something larger. Minga does a good job of emphasizing and enabling the fun and social side of school and extends it to the home learning environment. Pros It is easy to use - students, parents, and teachers can quickly get comfortable using Minga to connect with others in our school community which is especially important when we learn from home! Cons I haven't yet found anything glaringly wrong with it - it is pretty intuitive and does a good job at what we use it for. If it had more features maybe that would be nice but I also wouldn't want to complicate it too much. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor November 23, 2021 Thank you so much for your review Nicole! We are super delighted to hear that Minga is bringing your school community together and that you consider us an important part of your school culture. Minga is also happy to hear that Minga is functioning intuitively and is not complicated to learn or use. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review and are overjoyed knowing we helped provide your school with a feeling of connectedness and fun. - Jovana from Minga SR Shari R. CEO Marketing and Advertising ### "Minga is excellent for student engagement!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 3, 2021 Overall, Minga is great for increasing student involvement and communication! Pros What I like most about this software is that it boosts engagement amongst students by encouraging them to take surveys/polls and participate in challenges for incentives! For challenges and contests, you can group students and staff into teams and build excitement through the leaderboard! Students are able to stay up-to-date on everything that is going on with notifications, messages and announcements. Students can also have their ID’s saved into the platform as Digital Student IDs for easy access; also saving schools time and money. I would highly recommend schools to take advantage of Minga, as it is an amazing software for building school spirit! Cons There is nothing that I like least about Minga. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor November 23, 2021 WOW! Thank you so much for this thoughtful and detailed review!

Nothing makes us more excited than hearing that the use of our polls, challenges, leaderboard, and more are helping build your student engagement to the highest levels ever!
