eduCLIMBER: Notable Gaps

Both Abre and eduCLIMBER are centralized hubs for K-12 data — so what can Abre do that eduCLIMBER can’t?

Cost Savings

Where eduCLIMBER falls short:

eduCLIMBER gives K-12 leaders dashboards for insights into the effectiveness of spending and investments across districts, but still requires numerous extra licenses for assessments, curriculum, classroom management, career & technical education and more.

How Abre saves costs:

Abre handles K-12 data dashboards and analytics like eduCLIMBER, but with 10+ additional features such as assessments, curriculum, classroom management, career & technical education progress tracking. Schools that switch to Abre report saving over $300k annually by canceling extra licenses.

Community Support

Where eduCLIMBER falls short:

eduCLIMBER and Abre both streamline data collection and analysis, but eduCLIMBER isn’t built with the community in mind, making it difficult to share relevant data with community partners and support organizations like counseling, tutoring, and physical health support.

How Abre engages the community:

Abre knows it takes a community to educate a child, so the platform is built with community organizations in mind. K-12 admins and families can easily give a community partner such as a counselor or tutor access to secure student data so that they have the right information and tools to support the child.

Career and Technical Education

Where eduCLIMBER falls short:

eduCLIMBER’s limited access for community organizations means it’s difficult to track and benchmark student progress with work-based learning partners.

How Abre empowers CTE education:

With Abre, districts can see the full picture of a CTE program and student progress through student portfolios. Portfolios are central to our Student Success (sometimes called “Portrait of a Graduate”) framework. District leaders can also create CTE specific plans to help students achieve their goals and graduate with the tools necessary for CTE programs.

Strategic Planning

Where edCLIMBER falls short:

eduCLIMBER allows districts to build dashboards for strategic goals and track progress, but offers few added tools to execute strategic goals such as assessment creators, curriculum tools, and classroom management tools.

How Abre helps you achieve your strategic plan

Abre not only gives K-12 leaders custom strategic dashboards to create and monitor progress towards district goals, but a suite of features for streamlined execution such as curriculum management, student performance tracking, classroom management, and more.

Customization

Why eduCLIMBER can’t neatly meet your district goals

eduCLIMBER is designed to be a comprehensive tool for K-12 data analytics, but it’s limited customization means that districts can’t set their own parameters or see data presented in a specific way.

How Abre meets your community where it’s at

Abre’s K-12 dashboards are completely customizable to your district. Abre’s dedicated support staff will build your school’s dashboards to your exact specifications, and continue to help you see data in the way you need it to make the best decisions for your community.
