The reports feature is very helpful and exporting the data is also very easy and useful. It is very hard to accidentally lose data, which makes using this software a bit dummy-proof. > > **Cons**: My biggest con is on the side of the device user. When answers are ready to be submitted, the process is not always consistent. Sometimes the device says that the question list is completed, sometimes it does not. Although this is easy to move through with some instruction, it can be very confusing for the user. > > Overall, great. I use it to administer tests and questionnaires to students. It helps prevent cheating and it makes data collection and analysis much smoother. ----- ### "TP for webinars falls short" — 5.0/5 > **Stephen** | *26 January 2021* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Familiar with the software and its addition to PP > > **Cons**: Using TP for webinars requires the use of a second system to accommodate audio and video This is problematic for less technical participants. I could have used Zoom with polling for a lot less $$$$ and a lot less trouble. > > Frustrating ----- ### "Easy way ensure class participation" — 3.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *1 August 2019* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Turning point is used in my med school as a way to measure class attendance and performance. It is super easy to use. One thing that is great is once you are set to a channel on your remote for that class you won’t need to change it as long as the receiver’s channel doesn’t get changed. It makes it easy to pull out your remote and click-in to questions without having to worry about setting up your remote every time you use it. > > **Cons**: I’m not sure if it is just a problem with my med school or the internet connectivity but the receiver crashes or malfunctions in some way at least once a month. I think that it can be confusing for professors to use especially if they aren’t particularly tech-savvy, usually, when there is a problem here they have to call in one of the tech specialists to fix the program and/or receiver and get it going again. ----- ### "5\* for Echo360\!" — 5.0/5 > **Caleb** | *3 November 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Firstly I'd like to note that Echo Support is fantastic. Of all the systems I've used in my work and personal life, Echo has the best support team by a country mile. Support is swift to respond to tickets and their responses are thorough and take our institution and how we use the system into context. EchoVideo is the system we use offered by Echo360. EchoVideo is straightforward but extremely effective and as a result, allows our teachers and students to engage with and make the most of Echo360 without feeling overwhelmed. Its ability to integrate with other key tools in the teaching and learning space is important and seamless for not only administrators but also end users. A special note is that accessibility is their highest priority when developing new content - something many systems often forget about, or don't prioritise appropriately. > > **Cons**: The only thing that immediately comes to mind is the restrictedness surrounding user role modification. There is plenty of functionality within Echo360 (EchoVideo in this instance), but the ability to modify user roles against these varying functionalities is quite restrictive. > > Nothing short of exceptional. I think the few pros I've outlined give an answer for this section\! ----- ### "Great product for our needs with new features coming online frequently" — 5.0/5 > **Martin** | *5 February 2025* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great product for classroom capture across our entire campus. Robust system that handles thousands of recordings with quick processing turnaround each semester. > > **Cons**: Sometimes will get logged out or switch roles (admin/instructor) in some browsers if not using incognito window. > > Have been using Echo360 for several years to capture and manage classroom recordings across entire campus of a private university. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/204820/turningpoint?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/204820/turningpoint) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
