Three things that matter most.
Per ParentSquare's own announcements, Remind Hub customers are being moved toward ParentSquare. A forced migration is the lowest-cost moment a district will ever have to choose the best platform, not the nearest one.
Teachers loved Remind because it was effortless: text-first, instant, no phone numbers shared. Bloomz keeps that effortlessness and adds everything Remind never had: conferences, forms, PBIS, portfolios, newsletters, and district-grade administration.
Bloomz translates the entire app experience into 250+ languages with two-way translated SMS and email, so the families who relied on Remind's translated texts get a dramatically deeper level of access.
Keep what teachers loved.
Remind won teachers' hearts with zero-friction messaging. Bloomz is built the same way, message a class in seconds, keep your phone number private, reach families by app, SMS, or email automatically, and the AI assistant makes it even faster: type what you need, BLISS drafts it, you send, still one tap, still your message.
From a messaging app to a school OS.
Remind was a messaging tool. Districts need an engagement platform. Bloomz adds, natively: mass notifications and robocalls, conferences and volunteer sign-ups, forms and permission slips with e-signatures, calendars and RSVP, newsletters, PBIS and behavior, student portfolios, and a district analytics dashboard, in one app families actually keep.
Two-way conversations in every language.
Two-way translated conversations over SMS, email, and in-app chat, plus a fully translated UI in 250+ languages. Families don't just receive translated texts, they navigate, respond, sign forms, and book conferences in their own language.
A migration that pays for itself.
Consolidating Remind plus your separate forms tool, conference scheduler, newsletter tool, and behavior system into one Bloomz contract typically reduces total vendor spend, and we guarantee it: we'll beat any competitor's written quote by 10%, with your price locked for your full contract term.

When Remind may be the right fit.
Remind Chat remains a free, lightweight tool for individual teachers, and ParentSquare has published a supported transition path for Remind Hub customers. If your district is satisfied moving to ParentSquare, that path exists. But if you're going to retrain staff and re-onboard families anyway, the switching cost is identical, so compare destinations on capability, equity, and total cost. That comparison is exactly what this page (and a 30-minute Bloomz demo) is for.
Switching to Bloomz.
Easier than you think.
Purpose-built for districts leaving Remind: contact and group migration from your SIS, side-by-side feature mapping ('here's where your Remind workflow lives in Bloomz'), teacher quick-start training designed for Remind muscle memory, and multilingual family onboarding. Dedicated CSM, live in under 30 days.
Five commitments. In writing.
