Not flexible, very fidgety to format, and no granular control of permissions—people can either see the page, or not. And, the most annoying thing (to me) is that you have to build out fields for all possible data points—if your students might have 10 schools in their academic history, you have to have fields set up for schools 1-10, and for most students most of the data fields will be blank, but they still have to be there.
