14. Why is it important? What problem are we solving or challenge we're battling?
Problem- we need to make our educators more informed. They are operating in the dark, they lack information, and its akin to being blindfolded. We need to enable our educators.
The biggest problem we solve is consolidating multiple, disparate data systems. Imagine a teacher’s computer monitor, and all around it, like a neon pink halo, are sticky notes, each with a different username and password to a different system that holds different data for different programs. Schoolnet puts all that in one place (and puts the sticky notes in the trash).
When you have different systems like that it becomes very time consuming to gather the different data you need in order to get a holistic picture of student performance or educator development.
It takes a long time, is a huge hassle, and even when you get the data you want you have to put it into excel in order to run a comprehensive report and start to see the trends that will drive meaningful instruction.

15. Once you find what you’re looking for, acting on the data goes through the same process. Your lesson plans are in one place, your assessment engine in another, your instructional planner in a third, professional development in yet another place. You’re still hopping around from system to system to try and get things done, to manage your different assets and put that insight to work.
At a financial and administrative level this is very costly. They are managing multiple systems with multiple vendors, likely paying for a lot of overlapping functionality. If they are trying to get those systems to talk to one another they are paying for integration services and maintenance. And the time spent by staff (especially teachers) jumping around systems is time that could be spent really planning and teaching. Most just get discouraged and use the programs very little if at all so there is a big loss in ROI simply due to poor accessibility.

16. What makes us different. Why are we so special
What makes us different? Why are we so special? What will differentiate us from our competition?
That whole painful and lengthy process of gathering and reporting on data is reduced to a few clicks of the mouse and a few minutes.
And it does that for everyone- teachers, principals, counselors, parents, district administrators. So everyone’s looking at the same data through the same lens.
