So intuitive and user friendly!!
Date: Oct 04 2024SummaryWe love Procare and will continue to use it even with slick sales calls from other vendors! It does everything we need and is easy to use.
PositiveThe app and website are both intuitive and easy to navigate, even for our more technology challenged parents. We can easily send pictures, videos, and messages as well as keep up with attendance records.
NegativeThere seem to be frequent bugs that hinder the use of the email feature when we need to add pictures. It requires using a different browser or clearing the cache and restarting the program. In the busyness of a preschool day, no one has time for that.

Procare Review
Date: Oct 04 2024SummaryIt's a great program for organizing student data. I also wish there was a way to customize a registration for that families could enter their information directly into Procare as they register for various programs.
PositiveBeing able to house all student data in one space is helpful. Messaging systems are also beneficial for program/home communication.
NegativeStudent data is not easily searched when they are classified as inactive. We have students who enter and exit various programs across the Museum. Because some inactive students are sometimes missed, we end up with duplicates. We are not able to delete or merge the duplicate entries.

Would like students to be able to be part of different classrooms and not just moved or transferred. Some of our students do half days, some full and some do extra programming. I would like to have communities for all of those but it seems we can only keep a student in one spot. -
