KidKare

Avantages

I love the ease and availability on different devices to record my meals and attendance.

Inconvénients

Customer service is very slow when you do need help...it takes days and sometimes weeks to get no answer most times. Very frustrating to say the least.

Avantages

Easy to use, convenient, stores all kids that have been enrolled, report features are nice.

Inconvénients

The main one for me in the invoicing. I do not send invoices to my parents or have any need to. I would love to have the option of just recording the payments. I hate creating invoices only to record a payment and the feature of reoccurring invoices is great if you receive the same amount from a parent every month which I don't

Avantages

Web based application you can access from any device, simple data entry Nothing else to say good about this product, however, there aren't enough characters in the con category

Inconvénients

Providers were forced to switch to this new program no later than October 2017. Once switched you quickly find that multiple features we had access to in Minute Menu were no longer available. On top of that, not all the reports work correctly, payments are not processing on time, not all invoices generate appropriately, parents have been double invoiced, parents were sent invoices from providers in other states with other children's names, child care rate, the providers name, address, and EIN number. There's also been instances of data being dropped out of the program that had been previously saved by the provider. The customer service is best described as non existent. It may take MONTHS for them to respond to a help ticket, that is if they respond at all. You will also find that your help tickets will get "closed" with zero communication and without the issue being resolved. We have been assured that the issues would get better, but in fact, the issues seem to be coming more and more regularly. This company absolutely does not provide what they promised or what we are paying for. IF you choose to use this program you will find yourself spending extra time re-entering information you've already input, calming parents down about double bills, and most likely experience getting your money late on a regular basis. There are other programs out there, I would suggest you find them because you will find nothing but frustration with KidKare.

Avantages

As a user, the interface is so simple and makes each section readily available for use. I really enjoy the colors in the software as well.

Inconvénients

Reviewing information can be confusing at times due to the fact that some of that information isn't updated.

Avantages

The menu planning is great and has all of the options needed. Even someone who lacks food planning knowledge can find this software appealing.

Inconvénients

Not having the option to print all reports in color if desired. Have the ability for color in the reports allows for distinguishing different categories of information.
