[K12OSN] OT: billing software

[Huck]

It works swell..we actually ONLY use it for the attendance portion ;)
Which pisses the teachers off because they have to open one app to to 
attendance and another to do grading...and they want to only have to 
know ONE app!(understandably)
For us the cost was one and the same...our organization has endorsed the 
product and we get a package deal. The best part is if your elementary 
and secondary schools are both using School Minder..you can import the 
students moving up to secondary from the elementary.

Total install time took me less than 2 days...but getting the Samba 
rights appropriately assigned took me another day =)
