“I have been using ofCourse for two years and I cannot think of making a schedule without it. The system is incredibly user friendly—it really does create a basic schedule with the click of a button. But the system is flexible as well, giving the user the ability to customize and improve on that basic schedule. Not only is it easier for me, students and faculty love the schedules I’ve been able to create. Students report far fewer conflicts and faculty get their day and time preferences most of the time.”Michael A. Perino

“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

“ofCourse does it all — from gathering faculty preferences, to policing conflicts among classes, to maximizing the efficiency of classroom use — and it does it in a very flexible, user-friendly way.”Jim Gibson

“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.”S. Todd Brown

“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

“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!”Alice B. Isley
