The communication is documented with a date stamp and time. The communication can be sent to an individual or a group. Attachments can be added. It will send a text to your phone if you received a message. > > **Cons**: The only con was that I didn't initially know I could receive a text. This was a quick click of a button. If a parent clicks the individual button rather than group button, a person does not know if the message was just sent to you or a rather a group of individuals/teachers. > > I have had great expereince with parent square and I have used a variety of apps to cummunicate with parents. I love that it is contained within our school district. It has supported my needs to document communications with parents and teachers. ----- ### "Review on PS" — 5.0/5 > **Nicoleq** | *March 12, 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how it is accessible for parents and staff members where it is a space to communicate. > > **Cons**: Nothing really, everything is great with it\! > > I have a good experience with Parent Square. ----- ### "Happy As Can Be\!" — 5.0/5 > **Taylor** | *May 8, 2024* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have never felt so comfortable \& so involved with what my little one is doing at school. The teacher is able to post pictures throughout the day of their activities, post updates for the parents, send reminders about upcoming events - the parent-teacher communication abilities are endless here\! > > **Cons**: I still have not found other kid's parent's contact information, but that may be a separate feature that the teacher has not enabled. ----- ### "Easy to use communication tool with educators and parents" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *May 19, 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that I'm easily able to write messages to the parents of our students. Each week we send an update of what is going on in class, share photos, send any important reminders, and highlights of the week. Parents can "appreciate" or "like", comment, and message us through it as well. We can also share links to important events as well. We have it set up so we can choose grade levels, teachers, etc. who we want to send the message. We can also change settings so it is pushed out right away or for parents to get notifications at their preferred time. All school announcements are also used on it. Our health screening survey during COVID was also done on ParentSquare so it was multifuncitonal. > > **Cons**: I dislike that it is not user-friendly to add attachments and photos, this really could be improved to make it easier. It also takes photos a long time to upload. I've had the app crash when downloading a few times. The app allows me to add photos from my phone or iPad, but it is confusing how to select them and doesn't always work. > > Overall, it is a great tool and I enjoy using it. I like that they have an app or can use it on my computer. I just hope they make the photo feature easier to use and less clunky\! ----- ### "ParentSquare is Great for Schools - if you can get it set up." — 5.0/5 > **Sheryl** | *October 20, 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: ParentSquare is almost everything we have ever wanted in a program. It stores parent phone numbers and emails, communicates with them in their preferred method, and is easy to navigate. It really is a great program\! > > **Cons**: The program was a beast to get started and implemented. They put out papers that are supposed to explain how to set it up but even our tech company had trouble understanding what needed to be done. I really struggled to set it up. I told them if I had known how hard the set-up would be, I'm not sure I would have purchased it. That said, once it is set up, it's a great program. > > Overall it is a fabulous program once it is set up. There are a couple of tech things that could be easier but overall it is a very easy program to navigate, post, and share with a wide audience. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/198436/parentsquare?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/198436/parentsquare) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | it | | ----- ## Structured Data
