### "Wonderful Software"

September 24, 2020

5.0

Overall this program has met all of our needs for running an afterschool tutoring program at several different facilities. I am able to manage all of our tutoring sites efficiently and effectively without having to be in several places at once.

Pros

Tutor Bird allows us to schedule, bill, collect payments, record lesson notes that the parents are also able to view, and attach any documents we need to have on hand for each student in one place. The fact that you can do all of this from the palm of your hand has made expanding our program so much easier.

Cons

It would be nice if you were able to itemize month end reports more than you are able to at the present moment. We have run into a few issues on the accounting side due to not being able to adjust the reports accordingly.

Reason for choosing TutorBird

We chose TutorBird because it included everything we needed to run an effective tutoring program without an astronomical price tag.

### "Tutor Bird Efficiency "

September 14, 2020

5.0

Tutor Bird saves me so much time, stress, and chaos. It has made my business organized and flow with ease.

Pros

Tutor Bird made my business more efficient by providing online scheduling of clients, invoicing, payments, keeping records, and tracking business income/expenses. Everything I need for running the business is in one place, completely organized. Tutor Bird also provides me with a business website.

Cons

The only item I would change in having "make-up credit" just be "credit". This term is more conducive to prepaid services that are being scheduled later by the client.

### "TutorBird frees keeps me organized and frees up my time"

September 14, 2020

5.0

Overall, TutorBird keeps me organized and frees up time that I'd otherwise spend managing multiple organizational or spreadsheets. I hesitated using a pay-by-the-month system at first, but soon found it was totally worth it.

Pros

I especially like that TutorBird allows me to schedule students, track attendence, expenses & revenue, as well as materials on loan to students all in once place. The app lets me see my daily schedule at a glance, as well as log payments when I am away from my computer. The color-coded event options make the calendar even more user friendly.

Cons

I sometimes struggle to locate certain pages or functions, such as a student's home address, however the help feature is quite good at getting me un-stuck.

### "Tutorbird changed my business for the better!"

September 7, 2023

5.0

Tutorbird was a game-changer for me. I run my business solo and therefore do all the scheduling, invoicing, and sending reports to families among many other things. I am able to do all of this in one place. I couldn't live without Tutorbird!

Pros

I love that I have access to so many features! Scheduling, invoicing, expenses etc.

Cons

Not sure these are cons, but just areas I haven't used; the website feature and new and blogs.

### "Complete product for my Business :)"

September 14, 2020

4.0

TutorBird is the lifeline and complete database for all my students. It is very efficient to send emails individually or in bulk straight from TutorBird. I am not sure if it can be integrated with Hubspot.

Pros

First time user - TutorBird is our Franchise choice. I like the home view which gives a clear indication of all our bookings for the day at a glance. Also the fact that we can view past attendance notes without going into individual account saves a lot of time.

Cons

Expenses and other revenue - we have team members / supervisors who run the class and access TutorBird for attendance and notes. They do not need access to this Expenses and other revenue tab. It would be good to have limited access to the rest of the team as we have casual and part time staff who need access to TutorBird for attendance and note taking.

### "Great Value for the Money"

September 24, 2020

5.0

Tutorbird allows us to keep track of hours tutored and the attendance of each student. We have also begun to use it to track tutor hours for payroll. It allows the tutoring end of our business to run rather smoothly with all of the student and family info in one place. Another benefit is having all of the tutor information accessible to all tutoring staff. It is efficient and helpful.

Pros

I love that this platform allows our company to store pertinent student and tutor information. It is a lifesaver to keep track of attendance and make-up credits

Cons

I would love to see a feature that allows us to upload a file to notes to share with parents. It would also be helpful to have a place for tutors to enter hours worked.

### "Good Value and Works for My Simple Needs"

June 30, 2022

4.0

Pros

This works well for my simple one-person tutoring business.

Cons

It's relatively attractive, though some UI issues like small hard to read fonts and a slightly confusing CRM/organisational system. These are small points thoug. I switched from TutorCruncher which became way too expensive and was less attractive overall.

### "Easy admin and financial tracking"

September 23, 2020

5.0

A good experience, probably has more functions than I need or know about but it makes everything very very easy!

Pros

This is very user friendly, it’s easy to plan your calendar, send invoices, input mileage, link in expenses and payments

Cons

When you stop seeing a client it doesn’t take away their mileage and this is a royal pain in the bottom! Surely if the client ends and you Mark it this way their mileage should too?

### "Great website for Tutors"

September 7, 2023

5.0

So far it’s been great! I’m at the end of my free trial and I just signed up for my first month.

Pros

I like the ease of use and user interface. I also like that it shows me projections.

Cons

I would recommend to them that they explain the demo call you sign up for is for multiple people, not just a one on one. Also the make up credits are a bit difficult to understand.

### "Just what I needed"

September 23, 2020

5.0

TutorBird saved me admin time and my clients get a quality/professional experience in terms of payment system, lesson bookings and communications. I am happy with TutorBird and would recommend it for tutors.

Pros

Easy to add login button from my existing website to TutorBird. Good overview of revenue and expenses. Easy to send automated emails for invoices and lesson notes etc. Easy and quick to add payments received. Very customisable pricing options for individual students and tutors. Booking events in calendar is quick and easy to edit.

Cons

Took some time to get to know all the features. Initially I didn’t like emails etc being sent out from TutorBird rather than my own brand. However invoices are customisable and the TutorBird brand/name fits ok for my business.

### "Best Decision"

September 21, 2020

5.0

I am so grateful that Tutor Bird was recommended to me by a colleague. It is the best decision I could have made. I love having Stripe integrated and being able to offer the acceptance of credit cards to pay invoices. The program in intuitive and easy to use. SOOOO many options.

Pros

Being able to invoice automatically and allow clients to autopay. Seeing each of my tutors schedules at once. Clients able to view their accounts at any time. Being able to use it on multiple platforms. Being able to pass the cost of Stripe on the the client.

Cons

I am having a hard time thinking of any type of con. Yep, no cons!

### "Everything at my fingertips!!"

September 23, 2020

5.0

I love using Tutorbird! It has really helped to streamline my administration and is easy to use - both for myself, tutors, parents & students

Pros

I love the fact that I have been able to get all of my management tools consolidated into one piece of software by using Tutorbird!

Cons

The only downside for me is that I couldn't integrate the accounting software I was already using - Xero

Reason for choosing TutorBird

I liked that fact that with TutorBird I pay per tutor so that as my business changes I can afford to continue using the programme regardless of how many tutors I have. I also liked the features that TutorBird offers

### "I No Longer Ponder If My Business Is Organized!!!"

September 11, 2023

5.0

My organizational skills have improved by purchasing TutorBird's services.

Pros

What I noticed in the tutoring session I attended sold me on the online management program, so I'm thrilled with what was presented by the Tutorbird representative!

Cons

I would like to get another opportunity in a private session with the presenter.

### "Tutoring Business Review"

September 15, 2020

5.0

It's been great! Customer service was more responsive and more helpful when TutorBird first started than it is now, but we understand that comes with growth.

Pros

The scheduling component to this feature is incredible. It does exactly what we need it to. If I could be picky, I'd like for it to show me a list of available sessions.

Cons

The invoicing system is not clear. Clients are often confused and since their bill changes frequently, it causes even more confusion.

May 12, 2022

I am very confident in the interface I have with parents through TutorBird emails, invoicing, and calendar. I appreciate the convenience for parents of entering the zoom lesson from the student portal.

Pros

Scheduling and invoice management are easy and reliable.

Cons

It is not always reliable on mobile phone.

### "Awesome For Tutors"

September 15, 2019

5.0

It works with my academic coaching business. I use it to keep track of my students, parents can log on and run reports.

Pros

It syncs with Paypal and you can get paid instantly. Also, it is very easy to get started and they will answer your questions instantly. I like how I can send parents notes right after the session. Also, user-friendly. Everything about it is awesome.

Cons

Being able to have different scheduling enrollment forms.

### "Excellent Software!"

July 27, 2021

5.0

Excellent experience- Tutorbird does all the back work and admin for my business enabling me to spend more time tutoring and growing my business. I couldn't operate nor would I have the client base that I do now without it!

Pros

I love how easy it is to enter Student information, schedule lessons and send invoices. Tutorbird has saved me so much time in regards to admin and enabled me to grow my business as I can spend more time actually tutoring!

Cons

Sometimes the invoicing has a few glitches. The formatting of lesson notes is sometimes difficult after copying and pasting from word or google docs.

### "Makes daily organisation a breeze! "

September 23, 2020

5.0

Excellent t!

Pros

Used intensively daily and it’s an excellent way to organise my busy tuition Centre. Sessions are students are easily arranged and clear to see who is going where.

Cons

I’d like to be able to assign catch up sessions to every tutor instead of changing allocation every time I arrange a catch up session.

### "I couldn't run my business without TutorBird!"

September 14, 2020

5.0

TutorBird saves me time with scheduling and invoicing!

Pros

I researched several calendar/invoicing software programs. TutorBird is by far the easiest program to use! It creates professional invoices for my clients. My tutors can easily manage their own schedules with the calendar features. I couldn't run my business without it!

Cons

When my tutors email their clients, the sending address is mine. So when parents reply, I receive every single reply. I'd rather the reply goes to the tutor's email address.

September 7, 2023

I used it in the past but cancelled because I wasn't finding it as useful at that point in my career.Having come back to it several years later I am completely hooked, it makes my life so, so much easier in terms of admin and tutee management

Pros

It's easy to manage my admin quickly and for parents to check their accounts

Cons

Sometimes finding the right page can be difficult, for example trying to get to the parents details to update things leads me back to students

### "Thank you Tutor Bird"

September 30, 2020

5.0

Tutor Bird has helped my new business tremendously. Before Tutor Bird I was using my email calendar and a notebook to track my appointments and payments. Each week I'm expanding my usage by creating email templates, experiment with the student portal and signing up for the free Paypal Pro. In the coming weeks I plan on integrating my website (once it is up and running) on to Tutor Bird as well. The fact that this is a Canadian company make me even happier!

Pros

What I love most about Tutor Bird is the organization of the platform. As a new user it was easy to input information about my student's, business expenses and teaching schedule.

Cons

For billing purposes, I would like to be able to separate invoices on family accounts. All the payments are amalgamated together in the family account. Sometimes I get confused as to which family member is up to date or not based on the balance on the account (especially when different rates for each student is applied). The option to lump the students/payments together or separate them on the Family Invoices section, would be helpful.
