### "Clever Review"

February 10, 2022

5.0

I am thrilled that students use Clever every day. They are able to access educational apps all on Clever. It makes it easy for students to access and navigate.

Pros

I love how easy it is to use Clever. It is by far one of the best programs that students use. Teachers are able to link apps to Clever making it easy to navigate and find apps within Clever.

Cons

There are no issues that I have found with Clever! It is an amazing app!

### "Cleverly Clever Application :)"

April 30, 2026

5.0

my overall experience with Clever is very good, I like how great it is and how well it works for my children.

Pros

My favorite thing about Clever is how it will allow me to go back to my previous question and adjust my answer before submitting

Cons

My least favorite thing about Clever it, once the "due date" expires, you can't go back into it, UNLESS the teacher gives you a "special code"

### "Total waste of time - unfair to use as a requirement for students."

October 9, 2025

1.0

Frustrating and resulting in a dead end - can not get it to operate on any of the 7 platforms we tried.

Pros

nothing - we were never able to get this to work at all on any piece of equipment that we own - both my daughter and I had to give up on it. ridiculous

Cons

We have tired it on Amazon Fire tablet, IPad tablet, Lenovo computer, New Iphone - this software isn't compatible with anything except maybe a Chromebook and if you don't have one of those it most certainly isn't worth it to have to buy a tablet for this one program - total waste of time.

October 21, 2024

4.0

I love the ease of signing on! So simple for my 1st graders.

Pros

I like the single sign on ability for multiple apps.

Cons

I don't like how it doesn't keep the students signed in on their device.

### "Essential tool for every educational setting "

May 15, 2022

5.0

I will recommend CLEVER to all my contacts who have not already discovered how quickly and effectively you can roster, maintain and deploy your SSO for your entire district

Pros

Clever is the most effective method for SSO that allows for custom dashboards. Teachers have classroom level control of the learning resources while district level supervisors can monitor usage, deployment and rostering

Cons

As CLEVER continues to grow and develop, any deficiencies seem to be addressed and improved. Great development team

### "Organize Class chaos "

September 14, 2023

4.0

Easy way to keep learning programming together in an organized fashion Not all programs are available, and some that use clever to Sign in are unreachable if clever is down

Pros

This helps organize so many different websites that would be hard to keep track of otherwise

Cons

Some Programs a that use clever to sign in are unreachable if clever is down, which happens often enough to make it a concern.

### "A Teacher's Necessity"

December 16, 2021

5.0

I use Clever daily in order to both communicate with my students and oversee their Internet activity. It is very impressive that Clever has so many platforms that can be accessed with a click of a button. If I need the students to go to Kahoot, they can click the icon option within Clever instead of having to search it by name on Google. I also enjoy that I can post holiday-specific polls or surveys and then read their answers.

Pros

Clever has many features that allow teachers to collect data, share materials with students and parents, and also monitor and control Internet usage by the students.

Cons

There are not any features from this software that are displeasing.

### "Education Organization Tool"

November 30, 2023

5.0

As noted, great organizational tool to sync multiple educational software and other tools.

Pros

Very helpful organizational tool for teachers and students. Our school uses Clever to organize textbook links, benchmark tests, and other management resources.

Cons

None to report at the moment. Our tech. department does a wonderful job of organizing this software.

### "Clever is a Time-Saver"

February 25, 2022

5.0

With students working online so much more, my overall experience in this platform to help my students get where they need to go is wonderful!

Pros

What I like most about this software is that it gives one location for students to find the applications they need to use. It alleviates the problem of students struggling to go to the correct website.

Cons

The only con I have about this software is that sometimes the ease of automatically uploading my classes into each platform is not always seamless.

### "Can't Live Without It"

August 5, 2022

5.0

Fantastic--both product and support.

Pros

I don't know what we would do without Clever. Our students only need to remember a single username and password, and when the occasional login issue pops up, Clever has support and troubleshooting tools to easily remedy the problem.

Cons

The only con I can think of is that more educational software develops don't support Clever--especially rostering through Clever.

### "Digital Resource Management"

May 5, 2023

5.0

Overall, Clever is a valuable tool for teachers and helps them manage their digital resources in a central location. It's easy-to-use interface and integration of many different resources makes it a worthwhile investment.

Pros

Clever is very easy to use for teachers and students. The interface is simple and students can easily see their digital resources. I also love that everything is centrally located and organized. It saves a lot of time that I would normally spend pulling different resources and creating student accounts.

Cons

Although Clever integrates with a lot of digital resources, there are still a few that are not available on the platform.

### "Better for language skill development than similar products"

June 24, 2021

4.0

Children who otherwise struggle with instructional learning are comfortable with these game-like educational tools.

Pros

This product was designed to be engaging to the student user while also having enhancements for students that struggle to master a skill. I like that it does not force all students to learn at the same pace.

Cons

I would prefer there be more flexibility in the progression of the lessons. There is an established path that cannot be deviated from and this is problematic when a more advanced skill needs to be introduced with a less advanced skill.

### "Clever"

October 27, 2020

5.0

Overall, Clever has helped me keep my sanity in the classroom because the students know where to go and how to access all of the sites that we use. This is great for virtual learning too.

Pros

Clever is an amazing website that keeps track of all of the websites that my students use. This helps them to easily access the accounts without having to remember where to go or several different username and passwords.

Cons

I wish that a few other programs that I use were available to link to my Clever account.

June 27, 2021

5.0

I used Clever in my elementary classroom and I used it with my middle school students. My virtual students were also able to use clever.

Pros

I like using Clever in the classroom because I can add websites and apps for the students to visit for assignments.

Cons

I do not have any cons for this software so far because it does what I need it to do and the students are able to use it.

### "Clever"

October 19, 2020

5.0

I love the simplicity of Clever. Students know exactly where to find whatever they need for their learning.

Pros

I love how Clever allows you to organize all of the apps and programs that you use into one place. This cuts down on the number of logins that students have to remember.

Cons

I wish that it had more apps available to choose from. Some of the apps that I use are not listed there.

### "Simple clean interface"

September 9, 2020

5.0

My overall experience with Clever has been positive. It is a clean and ready to use program, great for using with a young child.

Pros

My experience with Clever is using it with/for my elementary school aged child. It makes keeping track of a zillion apps and log in information for a young kid so much easier.

Cons

I can't say that I have any dislikes for the app so far, I haven't run into anything that stands out as an obvious flaw.
