Analytics & Insights: Notable Gaps

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

Cost Savings

Where Analytics & Insights falls short:

Analytics & Insights 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 Analytics & Insights, 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.

Family Engagement

Where Analytics & Insights falls short:

Both Analytics & Insights and Abre streamline data collection, but Analytics & Insights isn’t designed to engage students and families. Limited access to data makes it harder for them to see what the district sees and understand their role.

How Abre engages families:

Abre helps turn families into partners with timely transparency into their child’s success and the ability to take action to improve outcomes.

Early Warning Intervention

Where Analytics & Insights falls short:

Analytics & Insights can identify struggling students early using its data dashboards, but it lacks the ability to trigger streamlined interventions, requiring additional PowerSchool licenses and tools to act effectively.

How Abre empowers interventions:

Unlike Analytics & Insights, Abre provides streamlined tools to not only identify struggling students but also create, assign, and track intervention plans, engaging relevant staff and stakeholders for more effective and collaborative student support. This all-in-one approach eliminates the need for additional tools or licenses to take immediate action.

Strategic Planning

Where Analytics & Insights falls short:

Analytics & Insights offers limited customizability, making it hard for districts to align data with their unique goals. It also lacks built-in tools for executing strategic goals, such as assessment creators, curriculum, and classroom management tools.

How Abre helps you achieve your strategic plan:

Abre not only builds 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 Analytics & Insights can’t neatly meet your district goals:

Analytics & Insights 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:

No district is the same, so Abre’s K-12 dashboards are completely customizable to your needs. 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.
