Even though it's not on the list, I have to say that I really like MicroGrade.  The process of posting grades online is so simple and just requires the click on a button.
 
If you go with mygradebook.com, it also has a really nice feature.  When you take attendance, you can set it to automatically e-mail parents and/or students if a kid is absent, tardy, etc.  It cut way down on tardies and absences.  Once, I took attendance at the beginning of class and marked a student absent.  The parent called the kid's cell phone right away.  The kid said he was in class and the parent said "I know better."  A few minutes later, the kid showed up.
 
Whatever you go with, I recommend one with online grade capabilities.  I'll never go back.
 
Good luck!  --Debbie
