Accelerated Reader won two awards from TrustRadius last week

Bloomington, Minn. (Jan. 12, 2021) – Renaissance, the global leader in pre-K–12 education technology, is thrilled to announce that TrustRadius named Accelerated Reader Best Feature Set Winner and Best Customer Support Winner in their annual Best of Awards.

Both categories recognize products with outstanding features and companies that have gone above and beyond to provide their customers with outstanding customer service in 2020.

To be recognized, each product had to receive 10 TrustRadius reviews in 2020 that featured a specific mention of their product’s feature set. Winners also had to rank in the top three positions of their category in terms of what percentage of positive responses they earned this year. Additional vetting via textual review analysis was also performed by the TrustRadius research team.

Accelerated Reader is an independent reading practice program that helps K–12 students to become confident, lifelong readers. Supporting more than 200,000 fiction and nonfiction books and articles at a wide range of levels, Accelerated Reader gives students extensive choice in what they read—and keeps them engaged in independent reading practice as they work toward personalized goals. An article collection provides additional opportunities for daily nonfiction reading, while in-depth reporting supports regular teacher-student conversations about reading time, reading comprehension, and reading growth.

“I’m thrilled to see Accelerated Reader recognized,” said Cherie Glascock, Vice President of Customer Enablement at Renaissance. “From allowing at-home quizzing for Accelerated Reader to working with some of our larger customers to meet them where they’re at, our customer support team played an incredibly important role in ensuring educators and their students were set up for success.”
