From the beginning, one of our top goals was to offer a product that was affordable for all teachers and schools. Even as we have evolved from a simple online gradebook to a sophisticated and comprehensive online student information management system, we have remained true to that goal.

We have been around since 2011 and plan to be around for many more years. In that time our service has been available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, with only two service disruptions which were due to widespread power outages caused by major weather events. One of which was Super Storm Sandy.

iGradePlus is a web-based application that can be accessed from any computer or device with an Internet connection. It is compatible with Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Chrome web browsers on the Windows, Mac OS-X , and Linux operating systems. All data is stored on our servers.

We obsess over the design of our user interface trying to provide a highly customizable set of features in an easy-to-use, efficient, and intuitive design. Our interface has evolved quite a bit since our first release in 2011 as we are constantly trying to improve our product by incorporating as many user suggestions as we can for new features and improvements that make iGradePlus easier to use and to understand.

iGradePlus is a web-based application that can be accessed from any computer or device with an Internet connection. It is compatible with Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Vivaldi, Safari, Edge, and Internet Explorer web browsers on the Windows, Mac OS-X , and Linux operating systems.

While originally designed for K-12 teachers, iGradePlus's highly customizable nature allows it to be used by those who teach at other institutions as well. Many of our users are college professors, trade school teachers, and nursing school teachers who provide us with valuable feedback for features that make iGradePlus beneficial to a broad group of educators.

iGradePlus operates in accordance with The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). FERPA is a federal regulation that protects the privacy of the education records of students. iGradePlus enables customers to comply with their FERPA obligations when using our services. Please see our Privacy Policy for more information.

iGradePlus provides extensive printing options for all your gradebook data. Each page that contains data in your gradebook has a customizable printing function that allows teachers to select the data that they would like to print and to customize its format.

Use your data anyway you want. Export any and all gradebook data to text-based files for personal backups, to share with others, or to analyze using other software.

iGradePlus does not restrict an account to a certain number of gradebooks, classes, assignments, or students.

As intuitive as we try to make our interface, some things still need explaining; therefore, iGradePlus provides a comprehensive set of online help documentation that includes tutorials, key concept discussion, answers to frequently asked questions, and an individual help page for almost every page of our interface. All just a click away.

Our customer service is constantly being praised by our users for its responsiveness and helpfulness. No out-sourced call centers with inadequately trained personnel. All customer support emails are fielded by one of our team members who know the product inside-out.

iGradePlus uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to transfer data between your web browser and our server.

Possibly sensitive student profile data is encrypted before being stored in our database and only decrypted when retrieved from the database through your account.

We understand how valuable your data is and perform nightly data backups to local and remote data servers to be sure your data is never at risk of being lost even in the event of a catastrophic event at our facility.

We also preserve the nightly data backups for the past 30 days. If the unfortunate event occurs where you permanently delete something from your account by accident, we can restore your data from the previous day or as far back as 30 days.

All iGradePlus accounts keep a 30 day log of any activity occuring within your account including logins and any activity that modifies your account data. This allows you to see when data was modified if you suspect that your account might have been compromised.

If someone fails to successfully login to your account after a specific number of times your account will become suspended and can only be unlocked using the email address used to setup your account. This protects your account from brute force attacks where someone or something tries to guess the password to your account over and over.

While not required, we encourage all users to provide a valid email address as a means to protect their account using identify verification. Since email addresses are unique, assuming you do not share your email address with another person, using an email address to verify your identity to reset passwords or to unlock suspended accounts ensures that no one else can impersonate you and gain unwanted access to your account.

Like most other websites, iGradePlus will automatically log you out of your account if it doesn't detect any user activity after a specific amount of time.

Teachers and administrators can export account data to text-based files which can be stored on their own computers for additional peace of mind.

Assignment statuses are used to provide further detail about a student's performance on a particular assignment and finer level of control on how the assignment effects a student's overall grade.For example, an assignment status defined as Excused can be defined to not count an assignment score of zero against a student's overall grade.
