### "Asset to our service"

April 2, 2019

5.0

Storypark is a beneficial software as it allows the early learning centre that I work at to communicate with families with ease and in a timely manner. The customer support team is very prompt and so helpful.

Pros

Storypark is an asset to my service as it has boosted family involvement, supported our sustainability journey in the reduction of paper that we use and it also allows us to communicate with families with ease.

Cons

The only issue I have is when there are too many people using the software it can sometimes become slow or crash but it always fixed quickly.

April 3, 2019

5.0

I love using storypark and the pros definitely outweigh the cons. It’s accessible and convenient for all stakeholders.

Pros

This software allows you to share information with parents instantly and in this busy world it is ideal. Parents can also share their thoughts and aspirations for their children sharing in their child’s learning.

Cons

I found the planning programme difficult to understand.

### "Easy to use "

April 3, 2019

5.0

Much better and easier communication with families and other educators within the centre as we can share quite all the information required and easily accessible as well.

Pros

All staff have been able to use this software even educators who are normally computer illiterate. Very functional and has a multitude of uses

Cons

Haven’t found any faults as yet, and I have been using Storypark for over 3 years

### "Storypark "

April 3, 2019

5.0

Linking individual learning plans is an exciting new discovery.

Pros

Versatility. I keep discovering more possibilities within the program. I love the tracking feature so that I can monitor the children I am following, the interactions and engagement with families and the ability to link in with framework, QIP referencing etc. it is time saving and efficient.

Cons

I do wish that the app contained all of the features that the on line choice gives. Program planning is thorough but not attractive for families. It informs them well.

### "Story Park Review"

April 2, 2019

4.0

Great tool in putting all planning cycles QIP and practices in the Centre in one

Pros

Effective, simple to use, linking educators families and children's voices

Cons

Report - When Centre started planning we created own group and individual planning formats but only children's notes showing in reports, so it's harder for Admins to have incite in what is achieved per groups.

### "Our experience with Storypark."

April 3, 2019

5.0

We can quickly link to all aspects of our paperwork. Makes it easy to professionally comment of each other stories and planning, promotes collaboration and encourages parent input.

Pros

This software allows us to incorporate all aspects of our programme and curriculum in one place, we can use it for planning, evaluation, curriculum, teacher registration, staff appraisals and it is stored digitally, meaning less paper. Forms can be customised to suit your own situation.

Cons

The hardest thing is having enough time to fully explore all options.

### "Storypark is AMAZING"

April 13, 2019

5.0

Overall it is amazing, I can access it any time, anywhere I want. Our families love it too! They are very involved.

Pros

I like it very much because it was simple to use. It is very accessible to all.

Cons

The only fault about the storypark is the limited options colours for the background story. And maybe the story for all the previous children should be available to revisit

### "Storypark; our park."

April 12, 2019

5.0

We have been using Story park for just over a year and it has made a remarkable improvement to the educators documentation. We are seeing a lot of collaboration with families. Our previous software company didn't allow the educators to see when families were looking at their stories. Now the educators can see how many views a story is receiving. Even if the family isn't commenting, the educators know that someone is looking at what they are doing and it is not a waste of anyone's time.

Pros

This software is very user friendly and allows the users to customise the features to best suit the needs of the service.

Cons

The planning features are not available for families through the app which make it harder to get input from families using the planning features.

April 3, 2019

5.0

Community involvement and parent communication are the things that we are trying to make it happen in our Centre. With Storypark, we can update families with children's learning very easy, form partnership, ask for program input and alert everyone for any announcement. A very handy and helpful app.

Pros

Very user-friendly and easy to self-navigate.

Cons

Nothing really. It works perfectly for me and suits our needs.

Amazing! I love the program, the new features that come all the time, the ease of use, the reason the software was developed, how it links educators and families through the open exchange of information and the quality of images etc that you can share with families.

Pros

At all information is stored and accessed in the one spot for families and educators.

Cons

That I can’t link conversations to plans.

### "Story Park"

April 12, 2019

5.0

Pros

I like the quickness and the easiness of uploading photographs. I enjoy being able to connect instantly with whanau during a kindergarten session.

Cons

I wish I could make the templates look prettier for printing but in saying that I am discovering it is better to use fewer photographs and fewer words especially for printing purposes.

### "My thoughts on Storypark"

It is the most amazing way to have parent and whanau involvement, especially for the extended whanau who do not live close by, through Storypark they can be involved. Love the reports too, very helpful to see growth in parent involvement for example

Pros

The ease of use, especially for those who are not IT natives

Cons

Spell check and grammar check would be useful English spelling not American

### "Review of StoryPark functionality"

April 16, 2019

4.0

Overall this is a positive experience with flow of information and accessibility with family and the teaching team.

Pros

Connectivity with parents and extended family

Cons

Some of the functionality when printing is not great. Especially in the planning section as it misses out lines between each page, even if you convert it into PDF the lines remain missing

### "User friendliness "

April 3, 2019

5.0

Over all experience is good

Pros

The software is easy to use as we can use the application on the phone and then the extended family can use the app with a little knowledge about the technology.

Cons

Nothing I can think of the only con would be that sometimes when you do stories on phone they are not saved while you scroll up and down.

### "Android App"

April 3, 2019

5.0

I love Storypark and so do my families. I take heaps of photos and knowing that they will be on there for when the child is older is really great.It’s great for overseas relatives who can see weekly development of the child.

Pros

I love using Storypark with my phone as I collate all the photos that I want then I can upload them onto a story, it’s so quick and easy and I can do it during my quiet moments which means I can do my journaling during the day and families get to see their child’s learning.

Cons

The thing I find most frustrating is that it won’t load all the photos I choose, so then I have to go into my gallery and edit them before I can upload them, it’s so time consuming and I’m in a hurry to get it done.

I love storypark it is a great tool to use each day in showing the childrebs learning.

How everything is accessible and easy to use.
