Why Schools Choose Classroom Walkthroughs

Key advantages over enterprise HR suite solutions like Frontline

No Suite Required

Get just what you need for teacher evaluation. No need to purchase an entire HR suite just to do classroom observations.

True Mobile Experience

Conduct evaluations from any device with offline capability. Frontline's mobile experience is limited compared to our mobile-first design.

Built-in PD Tracking

Track professional development compliance alongside evaluations at no extra cost. Frontline charges separately for PD management.

When Frontline Education Might Be Better

We believe in honest comparisons. Here's when Frontline could be the right choice.

If you need recruiting, substitute management, and absence tracking alongside evaluations.

Large district with dedicated HR team

If you have staff to manage complex implementations and ongoing system administration.

Already using Frontline products
