## Reviews

### "GoGuardian Review" — 5.0/5

> **Daisy** | *10 February 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love everything about GoGuardian. I am able to aggressively monitor student academic growth through GoGuardian. I am also able to manage the websites that students use on a daily basis.
> 
> **Cons**: I do not have any feedback for growth\! GoGuardian is an amazing program. You will not regret it\!

### "Great Classroom Monitoring Tool" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *9 December 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is an easy to use intuitive tool that provides a lot of classroom functionality necessary to keep kids focused in a digital world.  Our teaching staff that use this product have nothing but good things to say about it.  They enjoy being able to lock screens, view what students are watching, and look through history as needed to verify what a child had been doing during class time.
> 
> **Cons**: The only con for us so far has been the price.  We looked at around 6 products prior to going with GoGuardian, and it was on the higher end.
> 
> Over the past 4 years our district has been phasing out its Windows PCs and have gone with Chromebooks for classroom use.  To date we have over 10,500 Chromebooks throughout the district with more than 9000 of those used daily.  Being able to monitor them within a classroom setting has become critical.  GoGuardian provided us with the tools necessary to make the PC to Chromebook switch successful.

### "violating our privacy rights and disabling my childs education and mental wellbeing" — 1.0/5

> **Leah** | *23 May 2020* | Writing & Editing | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing is good about this program or company
> 
> **Cons**: I dont appreciate being forced into educating my child via a laptop that has completely stopped him from all education. They have also given themselves the right to supersede my rights to control what my child views and how easily he does so. Hes blocked from teachers videos and links for classwork and gmail for account verifications or classwork docs. He cant print to an outside printer or send to outside printers. but he can watch mindnumbing violence provoking irrational anger creating minecraft videos on you tube. &#10;And did I say theyve stopped me from monitoring that activity as his mother?
> 
> They have already been sued by the aclu and others for privacy violations, they need to quit messing with our children.

### "GG Review" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *22 July 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ability to set up scenes that attempt to control the webpages that students have access to in the classroom. I also like the ability to screenshot what pages the students are engaged in if they are off-task.
> 
> **Cons**: I dislike the fact that there are too many work-arounds to where students can by-pass the GoGuardian protections. There are numerous videos on YouTube that show how to get around their software. I'm also not a fan of the "chat" feature in GoGuardian. Only being able to have canned responses is not effective when trying to communicate with a student subtly, in my opinion.
> 
> Overall, the product has been good. I'm not the district decision maker for purchases, so my input, even when asked, was never taken into consideration. I thought another product may have serviced our needs better.

### "A Must for One-to-One Schools" — 5.0/5

> **Kevin** | *1 May 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is always running, both at home and at school. It automatically sends alerts about any potentially harmful internet use. It allows teachers to help kids stay focused in class. It provides another way for teachers to show parents what their child is doing during class time.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish individual students could be put into different "scenes" at the same time, but that is just me wishing for an additional feature.
> 
> I cannot imagine how I would be an effective teacher without this (ever since we went one-to-one). In addition, their customer support has always been friendly and helpful.
