"The Helix app has truly become indispensable in our family’s daily routine. From seamless messaging with teachers to receiving important updates instantly, it keeps us genuinely connected to my child’s school life. I love how intuitive and user-friendly the interface is, and I appreciate how reliable notifications ensure we never miss anything important—be it assignments, announcements, or event reminders. I wholeheartedly recommend Helix to any parent looking for a smart, efficient, and dependable way to stay engaged with your child’s education!"

"Transitioning from our existing SMS was always going to be challenging. The Helix support team worked tirelessly to ensure that this transition was as smooth as possible. Whenever an issue presented itself they were always available to assist. Sometimes immediate solutions were not possible but their desire to problem solve was evident at all times. Helix is a fully web-based SMS and this has been very positive for the College from both a technical and from an ease of use perspective. The quality and amount of training provided to our teaching staff was excellent. Teachers were able to carry out their core jobs easily and effectively. The quality of the Helix app has made a very real difference to our community. Parents and students have enjoyed up to date data that is easy to find and use. Our teachers have found the app extremely helpful in their day to day duties. From being able to mark the roll quickly to checking student records; the app has been a very positive aspect of our move to Helix."

"Helix has been a fantastic addition to our school! It’s super easy to use for managing student info, keeping track of attendance, and monitoring student progress. The app is incredibly informative, providing valuable insights that are also shared with caregivers (whānau), helping them stay updated on their tamariki's achievements and any important updates. The support team is amazing—always quick to respond and really helpful. I highly recommend it to any school looking to streamline their processes and keep everyone well-informed! Ka pai Helix!"
