Compatibility
Focus provides a single location for all of the critical information that educators need to provide the best education possible for every student, while also complying with regulatory mandates. Focus can be integrated with any software package and has existing integrations with leading cafeteria, transportation, accounting, finance, HR, special education and elearning programs. No piece of data ever needs to be entered more than once, as the integrations are real-time and event-driven. Instead, users can manage every piece of data seamlessly within a single application.

Adaptability
While many programs meet your needs presently, Focus student information system is the only program that can guarantee that our program will meet your needs in the future. The Focus student information system allows schools and districts to create, edit and delete data fields at any time with the appropriate permissions. In addition, Focus School Software provides the source code for the application. Not only does owning the source code prolong the product lifecycle and save money, but Focus clients can take advantage of new features created by other educational institutions.

Affordability
Because Focus eliminates the need to license multiple systems, it represents a highly affordable system for managing student information. Focus is the most technologically advanced product on the market and this efficiency allows us to keep costs low while offering functionality other programs cannot match. We pass our cost savings on to our customers, while providing comprehensive implementation support, training and customer service. Further, Focus School Software is a fiscally conservative company that owns Focus student information system. As a client, your licensing fees will go toward product improvements and support, not debt service payments and shareholder dividends.

Usability
A highly intuitive interface, customized to meet our clients’ needs, ensures that anyone can begin using Focus within minutes—and that information is readily available to all stakeholders, from parents to support staff to faculty and administrators. Fine-grained permissions ensure secure access to data. And full integration with elearning systems, like Moodle, ensures that teachers can manage courses, assignments, and grades without ever leaving Focus. Of course, administrators and support staff can customize Focus to accommodate student and campus needs as they develop.
