We have enjoyed working with the KT team and look forward to our continued partnership. The platform is simple to use for the end user. The apps work great and the reporting is better than any we have seen. > > **Cons**: There have been some hiccups as we work on making the system work for us. However, KT's customer support has worked with us nonstop on addressing any concerns we have. ----- ### "All You Need in One\!" — 5.0/5 > **Daria** | *14 February 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how Kangarootime is a multi-functioning app\!

It gave us a way to communicate with our parents efficiently and effectively. The parents are able to see how their child's day has been as it's happening in the classroom. Collecting payments from parents has become easier since everything is done through the app and they receive invoices daily. As a administrator of three sites I like being able to see what is happening at all three locations while not having to be on site. > > **Cons**: While in the rooming setting it is often hard to see the child's pictures in each classroom. It would be nice to have those enlarged. We would also like to have the guardians face flashing on the child instead of the bouncing kangaroo so we know exactly who is picking up the child without having to take a couple extra steps. > > This is a great product that has helped make communication with the parents much easier through the messaging app. Parents have also been paying at a faster rate due to being able to pay without having to be on site. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/63873/kangarootime?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/63873/kangarootime) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
