    Procare Software- Great Customer Service

    Date: Aug 25 2025
    Summary

    I really enjoy Procare. There are so many valuable functions. It might be a little difficult to find exactly what you are looking for, but customer service is great for getting help.

    Positive

    I love the functions, the syncing to the parent engagement app, and the customer service is Chik-fil-A adjacent!

    Negative

    On the parent side, if a parent has students at more than one campus (like we have) under the same parent company I think the sign in pins should be the same for the person regardless of which campus they are at.

    Thoughts on Procare Solutions

    Date: Jul 09 2025
    Summary

    We have used Procare Desktop for over 15 years, and it has served us well. We are poised to move to the cloud version this month and are looking forward to it. Procare Solutions has provided the management features we need to run a successful child care business.

    Positive

    Procare Solutions has been easy to learn, easy to use. I've been especially please with the integration of billing with payments through Tuition Express. There are many training videos available. For the few instances something has gone awry, support has been able to get us back on track.

    Negative

    We are switching to the cloud version soon, so I am hoping the overall appearances improves. Though our need to call support has been fairly minimal, the wait time on hold could be better.

    Summary

    Overall Procare is an amazing tool that the Daycare Center I work for utilizes every single day, as well as all of our parents.

    Positive

    Procare is easy to use, makes communication with parents flawless and allows us to keep in contact with parents regularly, makes billing easier, and is a great resource to help our Center and business.

    I would like a feature to track a child's activities through the day and give a report to parents at pickup instead of sending updates throughout the day.

    Highly recommend Procare

    Date: Oct 20 2025
    Summary

    We love Procare and would highly recommend it! The price is great. The parents find it easy. Procare helps keep track of ratios and makes it easy to transfer students from one room to another.

    Positive

    We use Procare on the daily. It is user friendly for both staff and parents. We love how the cost is compared to what we were using. They offer a lot of parent connection activities such as note, pictures, video, ouch report, meal, diapering, mood, and more. These are all such great features that we love the options. We notice Procare does to updates. We love seeing the new features they offer.

    Negative

    When changing tuition, which we do annually, it is extra steps and more than work than we would like to. There are occasionally bugs, which makes it harder to sign-in/out and message families.

    Procare is supportive

    Date: Apr 22 2025
    Summary

    We are happy and working on learning how to use the system to its full potential. We look forward to the trainings that we will be setting up and utilizing Procare to the best of it's abilities.

    Positive

    Being able to get most of my business functions taken care of in one spot. This program has supported us in learning how to manage everything and the care team is very supportive. We recently reached out about trainings and they were very supportive and helpful!

    Negative

    We would like to see better organization from Procare. We can't upload our incident/accident reports, because they would get scrambled with the important documents that we load. then it would become a hassle to find anything. We would also love to have categories for our communications, because not all communications are flagged important and some are mainly for curriculum with teachers. So being able to separate would be helpful.

    Date: May 23 2025
    Summary

    Procare is fantastic, especially if there are any issues. They have done a great job at helping with implementation and answering any and all questions. I *never* feel like a bother when I am asking for support and I feel like concerns and additions are valued by the company.

    Positive

    Easy to use, customer support is great, parents are happy with updates! Overall, Procare is a great system. The Billing is integrated so easily with other programs and there are few outages.

    Negative

    It’s hard to get new programs going. Desktop and online versions don’t always talk to each other and things need to be updated on both sometimes.

    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!
