Worthwhile App

Pros

Video uploads and customization of entries are 2 great features

Cons

Price changed to pay per child, so it is no longer a competitive price. Also the mobile version needs improvement. And parents want the option to download photos from the webpage, not just the app.

Designed for simplicity

As a preschool director, I can confidently say that Daily Connect has been an invaluable tool for daily communication with parents. Our families love the app, and it simplifies the process for teachers to share updates about each student effortlessly.

Pros

The app is incredibly user-friendly and easy to navigate. I also appreciate how it continues to improve with new features that are just as intuitive to use.

Cons

Nothing really comes to mind. Maybe when adding a new student if everything could be on one page and not in different tabs.

Great for some things, needs improvement in a lot of ways

I’m not 100% satisfied with it. Like I said I think it could be more user friendly on the admin side as well. There seems to be a lot of things that you have to jump through hoops to get a task down.

Pros

I like that it has so many features and it makes assessments and portfolios easy.

Cons

It is not super user friendly. I am constantly having to email asking questions. I think aesthetically it could look more simple from the parent app and teachers iPad, it confusing for a lot of my families.

Super Helpful!

Helpful, streamlined, and supportive! The staff behind DC are very knowledgable and kind.

Pros

Its organization and processes for attendance are incredibly helpful for my day to day work. It allows me to feel safe in knowing which children I have on campus and the ability to easily track them.

Cons

I wish there were more options for attendance view, for example, if there were a way to pull up individual students attendance and process an excel/pdf of that on my end. Additionally, and easier way to edit the sign in/sign out times from the attendance report section would be helpful.

Personal and functional!

Overall, the experience is easy to use, fluid, and personal allowing me to keep up to date with my child's day while I'm away. I feel satisfied that teachers are able to share information pertinent to my child and class without sharing information about other students.

Pros

Daily Connect provides an easily organized view with access to important information like meals, diapering needs, and activities.

Cons

Some descriptions are vague when describing parts of the day such as meals (i.e. 'most' can imply many different values'.).

Excellent. When teachers/caregivers utilize it the way it should be, it’s the best communication and connection platform for parents.

The ease of communication between our teachers/caregivers and us as parents. We can send messages back and forth, not just teachers to us.

Whether you're new to it or experienced, the intuitive interface guarantees a seamless and straightforward interaction that anyone can navigate with confidence.

Its great! its really easy to use. You will not be disappointed.

Pros

Its a great parent tool, that gives piece of mind through the day and follows the child's journey from room to room, Easy to use for staff and parents.
Packed with features like attendance tracking, daily reports, photo sharing, and messaging.
Our parents absolutely love this app because its so easy to use and its affordable for the nursery's/day care providers
We have used this app for 10 years and never looked back.

Cons

We don't really have many problems at all, if we do have any query's we send an email to try and find a solution, this can take a little while as they are based in America and we are in the UK.
Every now and again it can be a little slow and lag but not frequently.

Functional and Quick Communication Tool

Pros

The available options lay out a great array of communication tools between teachers and parents. It’s a pretty quick learning curve. Overall attractive appearance.

Cons

It doesn’t always sync and timers often don’t align between users. If you switch portals (phone vs web browser vs computer), the appearance and function are different. Some widgets are more useful than others depending on the portal. Lesson planning and observation notes can be tedious to input initially.

A review of daily connect

My overall experience is a good one. Again it's been easy to use and catch on to. The app is good and once you've used it a few times everything makes sense.

Pros

I like the ease of use and the many different categories. It's very user friendly and it didn't take much time to understand how to use the app. I really like how you can review all of the photos as if it were an album on your phone.

Cons

The thing I would change is how the communication works. It currently comes up like it's an activity or how anything else would come up. I would prefer it was it's own entity like how the photos are where I could go into the messaging category and treat it like an email or text separate from the activity feed. Once you send a message you have to go back to the activity feed to see what you saved instead of it populating where it was sent from.

Positive experience

Our teachers, admin, and families have all had very positive experiences. It is user friendly and simple to use.

Pros

Their responsiveness to questions, ideas, and personalized needs. This has made our experience extremely positive and successful.

Cons

Honestly, any barriers we've come across we've been able to get support with and improvements have been made to address our unique needs.

You no longer offer the option to create end of year memory book with photos

I tried another app, and went straight back to Daily connect

I love how I stay in contact with the parents all day. It is also comforting knowing the parents know the last thing their kiddo was involved in.

Pros

The thing I liked most was the nap feature and activity feature. I used another app for a little while and immediately went back to daily connect.

Cons

Nothing! That’s just it, I can’t find one thing I would change about this app!

Good not great

Forced to pay for the app by our child care center.

Pros

It’s ability to connect parents to child care givers.

Cons

It’s really buggy and it’s display changes randomly and the app doesn’t work with the apple watch and it’s geared for caregivers to use but not for parents at all.

Daily Connect Review _ 5 Starts _ Excellent

Excellent! I'm grateful for Daily Connect as it improves many aspects of my job.

Pros

Daily Connect is easy to use, simple to understand and yet provides everything I need in regards to communication, charting, and documentation for the child care facility I work at.

Cons

There's really not many negatives to speak of other than sometimes accessing children in other rooms or switching them rooms allowing me to access their chart can be challenging, but I believe it could be more of a facility issue than a Daily Connect issue, I'm unsure.

Great daycare app!

I like it, it’s easy to access, and I feel great about my child’s daycare communication from it!

Pros

The ability to see what my child is up to, see pictures, access daycare handbook easily and more! The ability to comment on pictures and messages is nice too!

Cons

I don’t currently have any cons about it, maybe if it could be organized by day rather than a long continuous feed?

It’s been great and I am so thankful my daycare uses it!

Pros

I love getting updates about how my daughter is doing at daycare. It’s intuitive and easy to use!

I think the user interface could be improved to be more visually appealing.

daily connect

I like it, just wish we could upload videos for parents

Pros

I love that it is easy to communicate with the parents/families of the children throughout the day by uploading pictures and more! It is also easy to find all of the parent/family information on the child’s profile.

Cons

I wish there was a way for us to upload videos of the children. Working with the younger kids (age 10-24 months) I see a lot of them taking their first steps or saying first words, and i wish we could share that with the parents

So Glad I Switched To Daily Connect

Overall, my experience has been great. I switched from a different app that glitched frequently but have been very satisfied with Daily Connect.

Pros

I enjoy how easy the app is to use. I love being able to quickly update parents on their child's day.

Cons

I'm not a fan of the timeline feed and would prefer to see different categories of activities together. For example all meals to be listed together, diaper changes etc.

Alternatives Considered

Procare Solutions, Playground and brightwheel

Reasons for Choosing Daily Connect

The app I previously used for daily reports would often glitch and not allow me to upload photos and other key information.

Switched From

Tadpoles

Reasons for Switching to Daily Connect

I liked the price of Daily Connect as well as the set up of the app.
