All bias aside, SchoolBlocks is the best because of its winning combination of G-Suite integration, price and fantastic support.
We shoulder the responsibility of content migration, review navigation best practices and provide a custom milestone-based timeline. In other words, we shoulder nearly everything!

Possibly the most common mistake a school makes is to have two solutions for a single challenge. For example, most website solutions offer the ability to create an event in their software. This causes some events to be stored on the website and some to be stored in Google Calendar. Causing both calendars to be less valuable. SchoolBlocks carefully avoids causing schools to have overlapping solutions.
