Parents enjoy options to maintain separate communications with teachers and staff. In addition to the communication features, payment is also easy to set up. Staff likes the ease of us especially at times when lots of data needs to be entered ex: meal times, attendance on playground, etc. > > **Cons**: It is more expensive than competitors but our staff really likes it's ease of use especially during busy times. > > We transitioned after the pandemic and now feel that we could help a parent troubleshoot anything they have experience but we also love the support procare provides. ----- ### "THANK YOU PROCARE\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jennifer Ledezma** | *20 October 2025* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I truly appreciate how supportive the team has been. From the very beginning, their kindness, patience, and willingness to help have made a meaningful difference. Whether it's answering questions, resolving concerns, or simply offering reassurance, their support has consistently exceeded my expectations. It’s clear that they genuinely care about the people they serve, and that level of dedication doesn’t go unnoticed. I feel valued, heard, and encouraged — and that’s something I’m deeply grateful for. Thank you for being such a reliable and compassionate presence. Your support means the world\! > > **Cons**: One area I feel could be improved is the process for handling urgent matters. While I appreciate the overall support and responsiveness, there are times when pressing issues require quicker attention or clearer escalation steps. Having a more streamlined system for identifying and resolving time-sensitive concerns would make a meaningful difference — especially when it comes to ensuring smooth communication and minimizing disruptions. I truly value the effort and dedication of the team, and I share this feedback with the hope of strengthening our experience even further. Thank you again for all that you do\! > > I truly enjoy using Procare and want to express my sincere appreciation for all the support that has been given. From the moment I started using the platform, I’ve found it to be incredibly user-friendly, efficient, and thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of both educators and families. It has made communication so much smoother and has helped me stay organized with daily updates, attendance tracking, and important reminders. What I appreciate most is the level of support and responsiveness from the Procare team. Anytime I’ve had a question or needed assistance, the help has been prompt, professional, and genuinely kind. It’s clear that the team behind Procare truly cares about creating a positive experience for users. Procare has become an essential part of our school routine — it keeps everything connected and helps build stronger relationships between staff and families. I feel more informed, more supported, and more confident knowing that we have a reliable system in place. Thank you, Procare, for your continued dedication and for making such a meaningful difference in our day-to-day operations. I’m grateful for all that you do\! ----- ### "Still satisfied." — 5.0/5 > **Bridget** | *19 May 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like Procare Solutions' ease of use. My staff and my clients are able to utilize the software with minimal assistance. > > **Cons**: My staff and I are not able to verify if the recipient(s) have received their messages. This is particularly important if the messages are urgent. > > I have been using Procare for many years now and am quite satisfied. Additionally, if the clients are coming from a location that also used the software, then they are able to just change locations and not have to create another account. ----- ### "ProCare is Pro-Parent" — 4.0/5 > **Danielle** | *29 April 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: VALUE FOR MONEY. Our families and I love that it's an all-in-one system. From payments, to newsletters and quick parent communication. > > **Cons**: CUSTOMER SUPPORT. It has been really hard to get ahold anyone anytime that we've had an issue, problem or question. I'm still waiting to hear back about an issue I asked long ago. > > The onboarding experience was really nice. However, it's been hard to contact anyone since then. I do worry about how I'm supposed to resolve these issues when I can't contact anyone about them. ----- ### "ProCare helps Child Care Programs Communicate with Families, Friends and Staff with the push of a button" — 5.0/5 > **Janice** | *20 October 2025* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall, we truly value ProCare as it is multifaceted through allowing us to reach out to families to share messages, emails, or photos of their children during the day to let them know how they are doing. It is also transparent in that all staff are able to see the messages that go back and forth on this platform. It also has afforded us the ability to know where each child in our program is every second of the day, which is great as we have well over 200 children who are constantly moving from one room to another, going outside or a bus line, wherever they are in the building we know at all times from the minute they walk in, until the minute they leave, > > **Cons**: At this time, I do not have any cons that I can think of. We have used ProCare for several years at this point, and I think my entire staff likes using it and finds it to be a better system than Tadpoles, which is what we used in the past. > > Our experience has been very positive, we have not had any negative interactions to this point, which always makes us happy. The ease of use for staff and families is always a plus, as we have some staff who are older and may be a bit more technologically challenged than others, but they have mastered ProCare, which is great for our programs as we mandate it's use for all staff, ----- Page: 1 / 114\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/119363/procare?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/119363/procare) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
