BusBoss and the Benefits of our Seamless Integration with PowerSchool

PowerSchool is probably the most popular Student Information System (SIS) in the country, known for its ease of use and robust features for tracking necessary data on your students and their families. Chances are good your district is already using it.

But what if you need to add a separate system which isn't handled by PowerSchool, such as bus routing and tracking? This can be a significant challenge, and not every bus management software suite can handle it. You don't want to be in a situation where basic data, such as student addresses, have to be entered multiple times. That creates far too many opportunities for errors to sneak into your database.

However, this isn't a problem for BusBoss. Thanks to our LiveSYNC system, BusBoss can integrate directly with PowerSchool.

BusBoss proudly partners with PowerSchool to ensure that our systems are fully integrated with theirs. This makes BusBoss the best solution for PowerSchool schools looking to invest in better bus management systems.

• Easy setup. BusBoss can import most of the data it needs directly from PowerSchool, so all of your students, addresses, etc, will transfer over quickly and easily. Rollout can be significantly sped up this way.
• Two-way data sharing. LiveSYNC isn't a one-way system. Changes made to either PowerSchool or BusBoss will quickly move over into the other system as well.
• Monitoring for empty fields. If data is altered and an important field is empty in one data set, it can automatically sync with the other set.

• Fast data updates. If information changes, such a new student moving in, and you enter that information into PowerSchool, the data can easily be transferred over to BusBoss so it's ready for you to update your routes.
• Support for unusual situations. The system can support an unlimited number of student addresses, as well as situations such as shared custody split between different days. Once the information is entered, the routes are ready to be updated.

Plus, BusBoss offers robust low-cost support for installation, onboarding, and ongoing technical issues. No other bus management software on the market makes it so easy to work directly with PowerSchool.

If your school needs new bus management software that plays well with your SIS, BusBoss is your best option. Contact us to learn more.
