Had the application configured in minutes with the help of some minor issues. Great time saver for student and teacher management.
Pros: Ease of use and Customer support. Web user interface was very easy to navigate through the setup and import process.
Cons: Nothing so far, great value for the money. Trying to connect it with our SSO and LMS accounts was a little difficult at the time.
Kevin R. · Support · Education Management · April 3, 2026
I would describe my overall experience as a 9 out of 10. It creates a high level of transparency for our class placement process to allow for our values to shine through. By removing hidden aspects of the process, our staff trust our placement process.
Pros: Class Solver is incredibly easy to use, it shows a great visuals that communicate the placement rules and characterstics in a easy to use manner. I also love that tactile aspect of it with the "name cards"
Cons: Currently, I would love to see SIS integration. Having the data automatcally update on nightly basis would improve the overall expeirence to reduce import/export issues.

I find it very easy to use. I would use it again. Everything i had to do took about 5 minutes to do
Pros: The website is very user friendly. It all works very quickly. I feel it took the stress of teachers and other staff
Cons: Everyone should be on board to take full advantage of the product. It would be pointless if not all staff members agree to use the product
Patricia Narducci P. · School Secretary · Education Management · August 21, 2025
Excellent! Their support and customer service is top notch! I loved it and quickly urged the rest of our district to adopt its use!
Pros: Classolver is the easiest system to use for creating class lists! I can easily create lists, move students, record notes about individual students and keep information from year to year! Great tool that saves me many hours of time!
Cons: Setting up class parameters can be tricky if there are multiple types of classes. We had a variety of classes where some were special education, some were for students who were English Learners, and others with students on 504 plans.
Holly H. · Principal · Education Management · May 30, 2025
Overall, Class Solver has helped streamline what used to be a time-consuming task, turning it into a smooth and efficient process. Highly recommend!
Pros: Using Class Solver this year has been a game changer when it comes to building balanced class lists. The program is intuitive and makes the process of organizing students for the upcoming school year significantly easier. It takes into account key factors like academic needs, behavior, and social dynamics, helping to ensure that classes are well-balanced from the start. One of the standout aspects of Class Solver is the company's communication. I received a call within 10 minutes of signing up on the website checking in to see if I have any question. Their team has continued to be incredibly responsive and supportive throughout the process. Any questions or concerns were addressed quickly, and they provided clear guidance every step of the way.
Cons: Teachers taking a long time to put in their student's information and we want to run the lists sooner! LOL!
Chareen L. · School Secretary · Education Management · April 22, 2025
Practical and easy to use system that does away with the need for manual spreadsheets/
Pros: Storage of data in a centralised place that enables the streamlined ability to make informed decisions about class placements. Oh, and the very fast turn around time from the helpdesk.
Cons: Nothing at this stage. Last year I requested several upgrades, all of these have occurred. Although the ability to embed student photos might be the next step (especially for the sociogram). I work MS/SS but the JS still love to have photos of students.
Chris M. · Head of School · Education Management · November 27, 2024
I enjoyed Class Solver very much and my experiences with Class Solver has allowed me to maximize my time during the summer specifically when preparing for the following school year.
Pros: I enjoyed the different characteristics and ability to keep track of total amount of students per class and as a whole.
Cons: Connectivity issues- sometimes connecting takes awhile
Clinford A. · School Counselor · Higher Education · September 30, 2024
Class Solver is a wonderful program that helped our building become more efficient with student classroom placement.
Pros: The efficiently and organization of class lists.
Cons: Though Class Solver is a wonderful program and there are not many things I don't like about the program, two characteristics I would change are the loading process and how student information is exited.
Alexa B. · School Counselor · Education Management · September 30, 2024
My staff was excited about the end product and the ease of using Class Solver. We look forward to building upon the data we have already entered to create even better cohorts in the future.
Pros: Class Solver saved myself and my staff hours of time. It used the data we entered to make well-balanced cohorts in a matter of seconds. In the past, we spent hours studying various spreadsheets and moving names from cohort to cohort trying to create class lists that would set students and teachers up for success.
Cons: There are no cons necessarily. Learning a new platform always has a learning curve.
Jill J. · Principal · Education Management · September 26, 2024
Class Solver was a huge time saver for us. The best thing about Class Solver was that it could tell us at any point which criteria were met and which weren't. That gave the administrators the confidence to be able to report back that all students were placed with at least one friend and to be able to answer to parents as to which requests were met or not met. It also enabled us to see when conflicting requests made it impossible to be able to meet all criteria, which saved us a lot of time spinning our wheels. The school administrators who were responsible for the class shuffling felt like they had been given their summer back.
Pros: Once we put in all of the criteria, Class Solver provided a solution in seconds. We were able to clearly see which criteria were met and which weren't and the boost feature let us tweak the results. Class Solver is extremely flexible and we loved the way it let us set up our own characteristics to use to form the classes.
Cons: As with any powerful software, there is a learning curve, but it really took us a very reasonable amount of time to be up and running.
Elyse D. · Systems Administrator · Education Management · September 25, 2024
Very positive. Has changed how we do class placement for the better and is a great product for the price.
Pros: Simple to use, saves time for teachers and administrators.
Cons: A couple of editing pieces take a few clicks.
Anonymous User · Principal · Education Management · September 24, 2024
Very positive, it saved me so much time!
Pros: How easy it was to use, especially for teachers. If it was not friendly user for teachers, it would not have worked because I would have faced resistance among the staff. I loved that we took decisions with data/evidences.
Cons: The email was sent to teachers in English, and there is no option to use it entirely in French. Additionally, I really wish I could export the sociogram. Another feature that could be adjustable is the 'weight' of characteristics in the puzzle. At times, I wish certain characteristics would all end up in the same group, while at other times, I prefer to balance them among the groups.
Elyse B. · Principal of Elementary · Primary/Secondary Education · September 24, 2024
Overall, Class Solver was a game changer. Being able to see and sort each class list on all the attributes that we've loaded into the system has been great, and the integration with Powerschool was very handy. I especially loved the Boost feature, where it would adjust class lists one swap at a time, and the fact that it flags conflicts when admin moves a student helps everyone make the best decisions for students. Loved it!
Pros: It saved countless hours for teachers, and gave them peace of mind that any last minute changes over the summer wouldn't destroy the carefully crafted class lists they'd created.
Cons: Occasionally the website would be a bit slow to load. It also took a bit of setup the first time, especially training teachers on how to use it (it's very user friendly but teachers are busy people), but it will get easier every year. And it still saved tons of time.
Thomas S. · Teacher · Education Management · September 17, 2024
Absolutely love it. Teachers, admin and secretaries all love it. Has saved countless hours of debate on which student should go into which class.
Pros: Class solver is easy to use, a huge time saver, balances classes in many ways with just the click of a button and makes it super easy to export class lists to then upload into PowerSchool or any other system.
Cons: Wish it allowed us to keep the lists in the system all year.
Rosanne J. · School Secretary · Education Management · September 16, 2024
Extremely positive The response time is good when we have asked questions All staff have been helpful and easy to talk with
Pros: The ease of inputting information. The sorting seemed to be very accurate.
Cons: Duplicate names in classrooms inputting parent requests and informaitn
Denise E. · Principal · Education Management · September 16, 2024
Overall experience has been fantastic! Teachers have shared that using Class Solver is much better than creating class lists by hand. You can personalize the data you collect from teachers to created balanced classes. If/when you need to make changes, the "Boost" button makes it EASY!
Pros: Class Solver saves time and creates balanced classes without much work. Set up the questions you want to ask teachers, the data you want to collect, and allow teachers to input students who should/should NOT be paired together and then let the software work its magic! If you feel like something is sub-optimal, or you need to make a change, click the "Boost" button to create the change without having to manually check to see if the change will throw something else out of whack.
Cons: Nothing! Everything in Class Solver is great!
Jeff B. · Assistant Principal · Education Management · September 16, 2024
Class Solver has saved us hours creating classes. It is very easy to use from the teacher and from the administrative side of things. I feel confident that the classes that are created are balanced with consideration to ability, friendships, etc.
Pros: It is very user-friendly and it has saved so much time creating classlists. There are so many characteristics that can be used for each student to help place them in the ideal class grouping.
Cons: I haven't found anything in Class Solver that was not useful for this work.
Jenny D. · Lower School Division Head · Primary/Secondary Education · September 16, 2024
Efficient, professional and exceptional.
Pros: I really love the customer service. They are quick to reply and help with even the small stuff.
Cons: I don't have one - and that is genuine.
Nic B. · Head of Junior School · Education Management · February 7, 2024
I have used Class Solver at two different schools and at both, it was a success. I will never again ask teachers to work through creating classes without this program again!
Pros: Class Solver is easy to use and implement. It speaks with the other programs used by schools, which makes the process from beginning to end seamless. The algorithm allows teachers to balance the nuance of student characteristics and needs, which was never possible with the old pencil and sticky note method. I recommend this program to anyone wanting something that reduce workload and increases the likelihood of creating well-formed, considered and balanced classrooms.
Cons: The videos are great and help a lot to work through the process. It would be great if the company added an additional check list document to support the process as well.
Brett B. · Head of Student Wellbeing · Education Management · February 1, 2024
My overall experience has been a positive one - the people who work for Class Solver are fantastic, friendly, helpful and could not be more generous with their time and assistance, if required. Customer service is second-to-none.
Pros: What I like most about Class Solver is the time it saves me in creating new classes at the start of the school year. I also like that I can use Class Solver to easily manage cabin allocations for camp.
Cons: There is honestly nothing that I don't like about it. If my school didn't pay for it - I would pay for it myself as it is such a time-saving program.
JILL G. · Head of Junior School · Education Management · January 16, 2024
I have appreciated how easy it is to use, but that if there are questions, that they are so easy to reach and help answer questions.
Pros: I love how easy it is to use, and how adaptable it is to our needs, and how much time it saves our teachers.
Cons: I would like to see it work with Skyward more seamlessly, but that being said, it only took a few minutes to upload the necessary information. It has been great for our school.
Ryan R. · Principal · Education Management · September 15, 2023
The thing I like most about Class Solver is not only the product but the customer service that comes with it. The team at Class Solver are quick to respond to any questions or queries we have. It's easy to navigate and very reasonably priced.
Pros: The product is easy to use. It's a great time saver and does most of the work for you as long as you input as much information as possible. It's great to have a record of all the selections that have been made by students, also great for anyone to pick up. Doesn't rely on "a keeper of information", the product is the keeper.
Cons: We can't fault the product, it has been a perfect for our team!
Dina O. · Deputy Principal Student Wellbeing · Education Management · November 14, 2022
Pros: The software offers our school a simple solution to gaining an important overview of our classes needs, ensuring no one class is impacted more than an another by students with higher learning needs. It also allows us to ensure students are placed with friends and away from distractions.
Cons: Sometimes the imports can be time consuming/confusing to import and see when data has been accurately input.
Aaron Q. · Learning Technologies Coordinator · Education Management · November 13, 2022
Pros: I found that inputting student data was very easy. It is very intuitive and makes planning very easy. Having the opportunity to create your own categories encourages the team to have discussions about the criteria for placing students in classes.
Cons: Honestly, it works so well, I have nothing else to add.
Anonymous User · Principal · Education Management · November 12, 2022
Pros: The software is very easy to use and the customer support from Class Solver is unmatched.
Cons: I did not find any cons and any time I needed support the company was quick to respond.
