The system is very intuitive and our staff and parents love the ease of use and the wide breadth of functionality available. > > **Cons**: No complaints\! Customer service has been spot on whenever I’ve had any questions and I’ve had no concerns thus far. ----- ### "CareDay is the future of childcare software\!" — 5.0/5 > **Laura** | *20 October 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: CareDay is an all in one stop shop where others do not have all features available and require the use to go through various apps or softwares. The biggest feature is having billing included in the app where we can process tuition but parents/customers can review their billings directly. > > **Cons**: When adding tuition to rooms, it would be helpful to allow the admins to edit pricing for the room rather than deleting all pricing for the room and adding again. > > Overall, the experience with CareDay has been great\! Having everything in one place is so easy and efficient\! Teachers really love how easy it is to use compared to other apps. ----- ### "BFA Gahanna Review" — 4.0/5 > **Ehryah** | *10 November 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is a wonderful app\!

It is very efficient and provides exactly what we need\! ----- ### "If you are looking for a great software to manage your childcare, CareDay is what you need\!" — 5.0/5 > **Annie** | *9 January 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: CareDay helps me stay on top of all childcare management tasks\! I am able to keep track of enrollment, parent/child data, and communicate with my staff and families\! It really helps to ensure that the children and families are receiving the best care possible. > > **Cons**: I wish it were easier to distinguish schedule changes from transitions on the schedule feature. Also, I wish there was an easier way to see if a classroom has an available space in their room for the day (child on vaca, etc.) > > Overall, I am VERY pleased with my CareDay experience\! It has been such a wonderful software to use at our center to store data and communicate. Out of all the childcare software I have used in the past, CareDay is hands down the BEST\! ----- ### "CareDay is Essential to our Success\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sarah** | *1 August 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the extensive features CareDay has for our team as well as for our families. Prior to using CareDay, we were using 4 softwares to accomplish all the tasks we are able to use by switching to CareDay. On the parent side, CareDay handles everything from the time a family is touring until their child graduates from our school\! Parents can easily access all their child's daily activities, communicate with the teachers, and see all the events happening at the center. From an administrative side, my team and I are seeing 4x the amount of productivity within our daily operations, and this efficiency (that has also eliminated an abundance of human error) is priceless\! > > **Cons**: There are no features is dislike when it comes to CareDay. If anything, every time I reach out to the CareDay team with ideas for feature enhancement, they are eager to jump on the task and are able to recreate our vision with more capabilities than we proposed\! > > If you are looking for childcare management system that can truly revolutionize your business, you haveto look at CareDay. We looked at Brightwheel and Procare pretty heavily, but neither of those productsallowed us to maximize our enrollment. Our full-time children, called FTCs in CareDay, went from about72% full to around 98% in about 6 months’ time.CareDay also does a really good job of allowing me look across many centers at once to understandwhere I need to focus my time. The analytics are amazing and allowed me for the first time to makedata informed decisions.In addition to all of this, CareDay allows parents to buy unused days right from the app, has a vendorportal that allows parents to buy additional services for their children, and has a babysitting module thatallows parents to buy sitting services from our staff on nights and weekends.When you add this all up, CareDay helps me realize a significant financial reward for my non-stopworkday\! ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/412526/careday?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/412526/careday) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
