The ofCourse History

“I have used ofCourse for 3 years. I love this product! It is powerful, has lots of tools with many good uses, and is very easy to use. The conflict checker, schedule reports, and public views that allow you to look at the data in many ways, allow me to use the product all year long. The customer support (Troy DeArmitt) is exceptional. Troy gives you as much time as you need to get the best performance from the software. I highly recommend ofCourse!”

“Before ofCourse I used poster board and sticky notes to map out the schedule. That could easily turn into a nightmare if one fell off. And getting it from the poster board to online was time consuming. With ofCourse, I actually look forward to making the schedule! Troy was so patient during the training process. He’ll walk you through each step and is always there to review the steps if needed. The process is smooth. Once done it can be easily exported. The ofCourse team is always looking for ways to improve the product and annually solicit suggestions. I can’t say enough good about it!”

“ofCourse manages the most complicated aspects of scheduling (including avoiding room, time, subject area, and faculty conflicts) in a fraction of the time that it took for us to do it manually. The software is intuitive, and the schedules are consistently better for students and faculty than our old schedules. When we have had questions, Troy is quick to respond to our inquiries. When we need to make a change, it is reflected on the published schedule in real time. After using the software for two years, I cannot imagine going back to manual scheduling.”

“This was our first time using ofCourse and our experience has been great! Troy walked us through each step of the process in detail and promptly answered the many questions we had as we went along. We were impressed by the amazing service Troy provided, as well as the many helpful features ofCourse has available. In particular, we found it very useful to have the ability to categorize all our courses into their subject matter groups and, at a glance, ensure courses in the same group did not conflict. We also found the schedule reports and various charts, readily available for download, to be great visual aids when we started presenting the schedule to our various stakeholders. Thank you, ofCourse!”

“ofCourse has made our class scheduling so much more efficient! Rather than months of back and forth with faculty to finalize a class schedule, the entire process to finalize a schedule and release to students takes only a matter of weeks. Faculty love the ease of entering teaching preferences while knowing that those preferences will be adhered to. ofCourse is incredibly user friendly and Troy and his team offer incredible support and guidance if needed. The ease of entering data, gathering faculty preference and generating a class schedule has never been easier. I actually look forward to the scheduling process each semester! All of us at UCI Law who have scheduling responsibility could not be more pleased!”

“I cannot imagine putting together a schedule without ofCourse and its amazing, intuitive technology. Troy and the ofCourse staff were always there to help and advise me, brainstorm with me, and troubleshoot any problems. The academic dean’s job is now a lot easier.”
