FAQ
We have selected some common questions from our School clients below, for a more complete list of FAQ click here
Can the system help you to manage all of your student activities?
If you are going to invest in a tool to provide you with efficiency and control benefits it makes sense that it covers as many aspects of your daily operations as possible.
Reach provides 15+ powerful modules that help you consolidate your student life activities into one single system. Running separate systems for different functions can fracture your record keeping procedures and create additional work for you to maintain data and reports from multiple recording systems.
Can the system provide single sign-on with your school systems?
Reach is able to integrate with your existing school protocols and provide a single-sign-on capability. This means your staff, parents and students can use their existing school login/password details. This simplifies the management of your system for both users and administrators.
The most common help request for practically all software with large user populations is for username and passwords. Keeping them aligned with your school sign-on details will ensure that parent and student user help requests are reduced to a minimum.
Does Reach have location tracking for students – in terms of live GPS of the device?
We are rolling out our new Emergency Management System in Q1 of 2023 and we have baked this feature into the system, identifying the GPS location of a student during an emergency on/off campus.
Can Reach customize the system to suit your campus ?
Every campus is different so it is important for you to be able to customize and configure the settings and workflows to suit your campus.
Reach provides you with the flexibility to configure your system to fit in with your campus. You can set your own protocols and processes to suit your campus workflows. This makes implementation easier and ensures that there is minimal disruption for your staff, student and parent communities.
How does Reach secure our data?
Reach used the Google Cloud Platform to host your data. We have company wide policies and restrictions about who can access your data and this data does not leave your country. There are redundant data centers setup throughout the world and we use various industry standard protocols and encryption to store and protect your information.
