Kangarootime vs Our School Hangout: Which is a better fit?

KangarooTime helps us communicate effectively with our parents, and organize our tuition and paperwork. We love the checking in and out feature.

The amount of work to do one entry is ridiculous. I can't stand the fact that if I have one simple question, I have to schedule an apt and it is usually 4 or 5 days out.

The parents love the real time updates and the staff loves the visual cues and intuitive use. I love that parents can pay online and I now receive over 90% of tuition in the first week of each month.

Software does not allow admin to restrict staff to a certain IP address, meaning staff are clocking in/out from anywhere (potential for abuse if staff are clocking in from the parking lot, etc.).

I am very happy with the decision to stay with Kangarootime - we did research other child care management software when taking over this facility and felt that this one best suited our needs.

Errors occurring but I know the system updates a lot.

I LOVE That this program is easy to access and that the staff at Kangarootime are so available to help and assist with any questions, concerns or suggestions that you may have.

The app does not notify families when a photo has been sent and our teachers find it difficult to manage the "rooming" feature.

I was able to call the parent so she knew we were safe and for her to get to a safe place. That ability to communicate with parents is a fabulous feature for me.

I don't feel there is anything missing from the site.

An amazing experience overall. The implementation was seamless, and the 1:1 training was perfectly tailored to our needs.

As a parent, I don't even think twice about paying preschool tuition each month. Our School Hangout offers auto pay and again takes one more thing off my to-do list.

First off the product creator is super helpful and provides her time and resources to learn how to navigate the software- helping you identify how it can be most useful to your specific program.

I really cannot think of anything negative to say about Our School Hangout. It is a different mind set than our previous program.

My experience with Our School Hangout has been amazing. I could not ask for a better program or management to work with us during this transition.

We use this app as a one stop shop for our school. Payment, class happenings and attendance.
