No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    Just about what i needed for my LMS courses. It lets the admin and other roles assigned by the admin to add gradebooks for the courses they created. Big ups for the additional assignment feature too!

    This plugin is in my eyes the simplest way to add a free gradebook to your wordpress website. I had some troubles to get it working, but the developer offered amazing support to get my gradebook operational. My students and I are extremely happy with Aori his efforts.

    Super easy setup. Students see only their own grades, so it’s private. Just getting started…more to explore!

    I have a simple site for my students to check their homework. Some requested a way to view their grades online and with this plugin it took me no time at all to do so. I really think the description of this plugin doesn’t do it justice. With this plugin you can use WordPress Subscriber logins to allow students to login to their own dashboard and view their grades, compare their grades with the class (anonymously) and see stats. I’m really impressed with the simplicity of this plugin and if it was a paid plugin I would’ve paid any price.

    The Author is extremely helpful, quick and responsive. The plugin has progressed a great deal over the past month, and it is slowly turning into an awesome plugin. im going to stick with it and see where it goes. the author listens to users and has been implementing their suggestions.

    I have wanted a plugin like this for a while now. I’m running WP on a Network installation and have experienced no serious problems. This is still a basic gradebook, but the author has updated considerably since I last reviewed the plugin. In fact, he has implemented a number of suggestions I made when I last reviewed the plugin. The author is enormously helpful and responsive. For example, I have experienced two occasions when he has helped to address an issue within hours of learning about it. His approach embodies all that is great about open source. For those WordPress-using instructors looking for a relatively straightforward way to enable students to see their grades without having to run across multiple LMS interfaces, this plugin is more than proof of concept. It is functional and worth a look.

    AN_Gradebook plugin helped me much in my MIS thesis (Online Registration and Enrollment System). The Author, Aori Nevo, is very helpful. He answers all queries fast. Updates are done quickly too! Kuddos, Aori! Keep up!
