“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!”Brian Hansen

“We switched to ofCourse a year ago, and we are glad that we did. The software makes it very easy to enter courses and create schedules, and it can handle many complex edge cases, such as courses that meet at different days at different times. Our students greatly preferred the look of the new schedules to our old solution. The best thing about the software is that Troy DeArmitt provides outstanding customer support and can help with a number of scheduling challenges. He is constantly looking for ways to ensure that we do not have to endure manual tasks.”Michael Abramowicz

“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!”Pam Dirkse

“ofCourse has revolutionized our scheduling process! Since implementing this software, we've experienced a dramatic simplification in how we manage our course scheduling process. The export features are particularly impressive, producing sharp, professional-looking schedules that are easy to distribute and understand. Moreover, ofCourse excels at accommodating faculty preferences.
One of the standout aspects of ofCourse is the exceptional customer support, personified by Troy. His thorough training sessions ensure that we're utilizing the software to its full potential, and his ongoing availability for questions and assistance is invaluable.”Zoe E. Niesel
