Before our school district purchased ERO, registrations for teacher workshops were a nightmare. Everything was done by hand and entrance was based solely on which letters I opened first. Now, with Ero, the teachers are finally back in control. ERO grants them the ability to register anytime from virtually anywhere. Instead of chaos, everything is automated, fair, and honest – making my life much simpler.
