"Now we are able to have everything in one place, saving us loads of time and headaches. For example, the Skyward Health Module does away with the cost and support of our previous third-party health office system."

"We needed buy-in from our families, That’s why creating opportunities for students and parents to communicate better with the school district was not only an investment financially, but also an investment in the importance of the experience."

"Had I have known the time that it would save me each year in setting up contracts and pay records for the staff I would have begun using it much sooner. I wholeheartedly recommend this product."

"I can’t wait for the second-year version of this story, We are going to see all the benefits and reasons we converted this next year and in year three we are convinced it’s going to be even better. Skyward is the perfect software to grow with us and that feels really good."

"Thanks to HBR 429’s partnership with Skyward and their use of the School Business Suite since 2013, McGuire’s team knew just where to start in their search for a more future-ready SIS. “We were very happy with our experiences on the financial side and were confident that a newer technology like Skyward’s Qmlativ® platform would alleviate some of the pains we had with our previous SIS."

"I would not be making it through the 1095c process if it wasn't for the great people at Skyward. The instructions and trainings have been vital to me. Thank you again!"

"We’re not going to have the errors on timesheets – before a person could put down ‘8 a.m. to 4 p.m.’ and say that was 10 hours, There are not those kinds of addition errors or calculating errors on both the employees’ part and the people who process payroll. When you’ve got that many manual timesheets to go through to check and approve, and only a certain amount of time to do it in, there’s a chance for errors."

"True Time is part of the culture here. It’s like using email now. It’s just something they do, and it’s easy for them to do. It’s so convenient."

"We were excited from the beginning about our move to Skyward, and our district staff had many cheerleaders helping us move through the implementation, The Skyward staff was outstanding in answering our every question and keeping us on task. I am still amazed at what was accomplished in such a short period of time. It was a very positive process and a great move to Skyward."

“After seeing what Qmlativ offered, from the SQL database to the flexible interface, we recognized that it fit in line with our vision for the future. It contained the most important qualities we look for in education technology: accessibility, attentiveness to district needs, in tune with national, state, and local changes, instant support, and a continuously evolving product.”

"There is a strong and growing network of Skyward districts in Michigan, and many of those have been instrumental in getting the data hub up and running because of Skyward's willingness to invest time and effort into compliance."

"They see it as very simple for them to use – it’s pretty intuitive, and I think they feel comfortable using it, We don’t get a lot of questions on ‘how do I do this’ or ‘how do I do that’ – they can easily log in, and with the options for them to choose from, the system is not overwhelming."

"We are very happy with the Skyward Special Ed Module. I find myself using it not just for writing IEP's, but for broader data collection features as well. I love it!"

"Many have been at the district for a number of years, and so they were averse to change from the start, But every week I hear from one of them how great Skyward is and how it’s made their life easier. So as the comfort level grows, the confidence starts to come."

"One of the things that attracted us most to Skyward was the fact that it was web-based. It was very important to us because we want teachers to have access to their gradebook, their online lesson plans, and so forth, at home."
