What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They implemented clear and accessible reporting tools that improved visibility into financial and administrative data. During the initial term of use, the school was provided with dedicated support to assist with onboarding, training, and system adoption. The team also offer ongoing maintenance and 24/7 technical support, ensuring that any issues are addressed promptly and that the system continues to operate reliably.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Scedar Technologies Co could have done differently?

Overall, the project was implemented successfully and met our expectations. The only downside was that additional features were introduced incrementally over time. This meant that some features were added after the initial training period. If more of these features had been available from the start, they could have been included in the initial training sessions, which would have made early adoption even smoother for staff.
