Savvas RealizeReviews 342

I can't think of a time were I didn't go home and cry. My teacher teaches the topic great, but then Savvas just makes it ten times harder. Last night, I spent two hours crying because I couldn't understand how it was even remotely similar to what he taught me. Feeling very suicidal because of my grades dropping because of Savvas. 0/10 kill me pls

Literally the worst website to ever exist for students. Khan Academy was terrible for me, but in this case, I'd rather use it for the rest of my life than deal with this bull$#*! excuse of a 'learning program.'
Once I found out how much my school paid for it ($50 a student, per grade) I expect the structural upkeep and the purchase of new servers and better staff to be initialized. You can absolutely afford the beefiest servers available to handle all the clients you're scamming out of their money, instead of having them wait 15 seconds to load the simplest, underdone, $#*!ty HTML coding I have EVER seen, the site I'm writing this on is more developed. You can also hire better staff that don't have less IQ than a 2nd grader.
Staff is terrible. All of them. Customer service, refunds, even the higher up positions. They are ALL terrible people, and shouldn't be working there.
The answer system also pisses literally everyone off. My 8th grade math teacher would rather use IXL (still terrible) There is only one correct answer. If you write 2.25, it'll be like, no, it's 2 1/4, $#*! you. And if you write 4.5, it'll say you're wrong you stupid $#*!, it's 04.500.

Why is this $#*!ing app so stupid it's the worst app the questions have nothing to do about what they have been teaching us

I am a teacher of multiple math and science subjects. When I am trying to create a lesson plan and need to use the online textbook, I can count on it to be glitchy and show the spinning wheel of death. The practice problems they create for students (geometry especially) are horrible and 9 times out of 10, I wouldn't even think of assigning them to my students. I go online and find some other worksheet instead because their content is so awful. It's generic public school garbage but worse. I have to use these things embedded in Canvas and I don't wish that on anyone.

Savvas is one of the worst websites I have ever used. It causes an insane level of frustration. I have almost broken my computer because of savvas. It will make you lose points on a test because of its stupid grading technique. I have lost over 10 points because I forgot to add the 0 in 7.5 XD.

The questions period don't make sense. They are unclear and annoying- making kids dread schoolwork because of the site. ANYTHING would be better. It makes assignments that are meant to take 30 mins end up taking an hour and a half. Savvas sucks.

Savvas Realize is most likely the worst "learning" website I've ever come across and will ever come across as a middle school student. A truly bland and horrendous website with words smaller than a singular extra-fine grain of sand. I am sadly forced to use this monstrosity every day in my ELA class and I despise every nanosecond of it.

Savvas Realize is the worst rated math app for schools not only do my teachers hate using it, but also other friends of mine at other schools. Kids HATE using it!

This website is bull$#*! don't $#*!ing use it. It $#*!ing sucks. It's so laggy one time I posted a comment and it didn't load then deleted itself.
That's to the creators of this $#*!ty website.

My math teacher uses it, and it is very annoying to use. We never get explained how to do an assignment. We are told to figure things out with this website and it doesn't tell us how to do anything, and our teacher doesn't either.

Incredibly glitchy, constantly getting lagged out. GORE images? Children use this website and they're showing animals being ripped apart? Would not recommend. There's also for some reason a math version and a friend of mine who uses it HATES it! Teachers please heed my warning and don't let students suffer like I do! I'd like to add that it's also really boring and just a waste of time since I barely learn anything from it either. I'd rather be using a textbook because at least then you might get something out of it. (PLEASE DISREGARD THE ATTACHED PHOTO I DON'T WANT THE ALGORITHM TO IGNORE THIS POST!)

This website is terrible and unreliable. It deletes my progress when I'm not even done. I recommend to people to NOT take this website as their source for their work. #terrible

It is almost as bad as IXL. It gave us 20% on the exam while the teacher told us our actual score was 90%. You accidentally click on the space bar, your answer becomes incorrect. Sometimes when you click on the text box it puts it halfway above the screen. And worse of all, it takes all the lesson just loading and what you get is a scream from your teacher in your face. Trust me. Don't believe a parent saying it's good, they're probably the company owner's wife.

It is a awsome websight for my students here at school. I love theye way the "kids" help my students when they needed help.

My hatred towards this website is imesurable. Stupid ai can't distinguish 0.1 from 00.1. When they try to 'explain' how to do a problem its overcomplicated with extra steps. $#*! this stupid website. Edit: I THOUGHT IT CAN'T GET WORSE, BUT HERE WE ARE. THE $#*!ING INTERFACE WAS FINE BEFORE, THEY MADE THE TEXT SMALLER AND THE LOOKS UGLIER. IT WAS A LITTLE BETTER THAN AVERAGE BEFORE. IT LOOKS LIKE $#*!. $#*!ING $#*!. I HATE THIS STUPID WEBSITE. EVERYTHING ABOUT IT.

This website make me stupider. My school has used this for a year and I have forgotten how to do algebra. This website is designed for stupid people and never loads. The interactive exercises suck and I learnt more in 5th grade (NOT KIDDING).!@#$%^&* this website!

Saavas is the most $#*!ty website known to cause chlamydia in all who uses it. It should be banned EVERYWHERE. My nephew, Timothee was going out with his GOOD friend to do that $#*!ty science saavas with that GOOD friend and study some of his material... next thing i knew he has these groans like the walking dead zombies and hes CLEARLY in pain. When I asked him what is wrong little Timothee, he told me "thanks to savas... i have an std and its totally because of savas and nothing else..." I WAS SO ANGRY. MY NEPHEW HAS CHLAMIDA FROM THIS WEBSITE! I finally calmed myself down enough to write this very adamant review. NEVER EVER USE SAVAS UNLESS YOU WANT AN STD.

Savvas is $#*!. The site is so glitchy, constantly giving errors and logging me out in the middle of my work. This site should not be used for children, as I have seen seals being eaten and ripped to shreds by sharks pictured in this. The site has TRAUMATIZED me and should not be used. The imagery of graphic violence alongside the glitchiness and overall bad layout really makes a person think about if this site is good to teach children and if it should be put to rest and burned at the stake.

Savvas Realize is the clunkiest and most useless website ever. Content is not easy to find or use. The one useful thing is the lesson videos but there is not even a way to share just those with struggling students. You have to share the entire interactive student edition and then give it a due date. The platform is a major pain to use. You can't even see the title of the book you are selecting in realize reader. When you do get a page open the bars on the screen take up half the screen and you can't even see what you are looking at. Most useless tool ever that is meant to enhance learning.
