    Great for Parent Communication

    Date: Mar 10 2025
    Summary

    Procare is a great platform, and I'd recommend it to any childcare center looking for an efficient way to stay connected with families.

    Positive

    We use Procare to communicate with parents, and it has been a fantastic tool! The ability to send messages, pictures, and videos makes it easy to keep parents updated throughout the day. The interface is user-friendly, and it really helps streamline communication between staff and families.

    Negative

    As admins, we can't edit messages once they're sent. If a correction is needed, we have to delete the message and ask the teacher to resend it, which can be inconvenient. Adding an edit feature for admins or teachers would make the system even better!

    Security is the best part of Procare

    Date: Mar 09 2025
    Summary

    If we found another software that offered the biometric check in and out, we would switch products.

    Positive

    We are dependent on the biometric security portion of the Procare platform. This is excellent in ensuring the security of checking clients in and out of the center.

    Negative

    Poor customer service, frequent glitches, frequent updates, frequent crashes. I get tired of parents and teachers texting me or showing up in my office to tell me that Procare isn't working again.

    Procare Solution Review

    Date: Feb 10 2025
    Summary

    Overall it is easy to use and run a variety of reports. However, we wish there was an easier way to communicate with parents.

    Positive

    We use Procare on a daily basis and it organizes children's records which makes it easy to run reports to communicate with the parents about upcoming record due dates.

    Negative

    Emailing parents is difficult from the desk top version. we have explored moving to the cloud version but the way our school is set up, parents can not open the door until they have used their fingerprint to check in their child.

    Negative

    Having so many different capabilities across the different platforms and websites is confusing to parents. Wish everything was located in one place
