Hi All,
I need a nice catchy name for a school software I have done. The program handles pupil profiling, absenteeism, sports team lists and a bunch of other stuff. However, finding a name is more difficult than I thought.
Please guys suggest something.:wave:

If this is something you intend to market commerically you could set it up so that each school that purchases your product has the ability to give it their own, individual, name.
Yes, where I used to work they had a proprietary HR software package that we sold to school districts. It had that ability plus customizable reporting and templates etc. Each school could customize it highly for their individual needs. But with HR stuff there are allot of rules and regulations that it needs to adhere too.

I've had to work on HR apps before....I try to avoid them like the plague because of all the rules and regulations that need to be adhered to.Quote:

Still, I think a configurable app that allows the user to make the call would be a very nice feature.
Yes, I worked with HIPPA standards and rules too. It stinks :sick:
How about naming it after the school and adding "Manager" or "Student Manager/Tracker"
"My School Student Manager"?

I much prefer a unique and non-institutional name that has a bit of wit to it, because people will remember the name, and most will get a laugh out of it. And for those who don't? Try to poison their water, it's the only humane thing to do.
This is twisted, but how about "LaFave" or "Rogers?" ;)

Kidding! Just kidding!
How about
S.O.S - Students Organizing System
or
S.T.S - Students Tracking System
... boring but can also be "catchy" ...
Chav Tracker =]
I think only English people understand the word chav though ><
So what does Chav mean?
It is typically used to refer to people with dubious taste in clothing and/or lacking in morals/intelligence (usually teenagers): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav
As this is a tracking program for a school, I'm guessing with that name it probably won't go over big in England.
After reading that, I came up with "Get 'em in. Get 'em up. Move 'em out. - Rawhide"Quote:

Sarbanes/Oxley ... named after Senators Sarbanes and Senator Okley (I think I have the spellings right) - legislation passed by congress in the wake of the Enron debacle to make people accountable for getting the data right.... it went a little too far in my opinion.
Fortunately most of our clients are privetly held, so they don't fall under SOX jurisdiction ,but we do have a couple that are publicly traded, and so do fall under it....

I just had to memorialize that, since you went to the length of pointing out the spellings and still spelled them differently:wave: . I believe you are correct with the first spelling, but frankly I have never heard of either of those two other than this bill.Quote:
