My overall experience with Child Care Seer has been very positive. It has streamlined scheduling, billing, and student tracking, making daily operations much smoother. While there is a small learning curve, the efficiency and time saved make it well worth it.

Pros

The system is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. I like how it streamlines scheduling and keeps everything organized. It makes staff communication and family engagement much smoother. The automation saves time on billing, attendance, and record-keeping. I appreciate the transparency it gives both parents and staff.

Cons

Some features take a little time to learn at first. Occasional glitches or slow load times can be frustrating. A few reports could be more customizable for specific needs.

Pros

As a childcare center director, I am so glad I have a one-stop shop for managing ratios, billing, waiting lists, and staff. I love that my dashboard on Childcare Seer will notify me when a classroom is out of ratio, which has made my job so much easier!

Cons

As a user who came into the company early, some bugs and glitches needed to be fixed, and they were! My feedback mattered, making the issues not as big of a deal in the end.

Pros

The daily updates and ability to pay for care via wallet are really nice. The overall layout of the website makes it easy to find things and look up information.

Cons

The paid vs not paid function is not working on the site. It doesn't allow check in/check out of kids even though the week has been paid for. It would be nice to pay monthly instead of every week. The money section of the site credits/debits can be confusing. I find myself running a tax report to confirm what was actually charged to our account.

We don not use it for any business application, only for our childcare needs and find it easy to use.

Pros

The platform is easy to use and has lot of options. Also easy to edit or update information about children.

Cons

We did not have any cons about the Seer platform.

Pros

As a parent of a young child, I like knowing that you have to have a personalized pin number to check her in and out. My husband and I also appreciate the daily reports we receive as they give us insight as to how her day went. Overall, I like Child Care Seer much better than what was previously used.

Cons

The only con is that if the internet is down at the child care facility, the staff has to manually check our children in and out.

Switched from

[ProCARE Portal](https://www.capterra.com/p/140862/ProCARE-Portal/)

The childcare facility chose to switch as they had better features with Child Care Seer, and the cost was better.

I wish we could see what teacher is with the child that day with a picture and a profile that we could click on to learn more about them.

Pros

I am a parent user of the software. I like that I can see what activities my child does as well as pictures. I also like that there is a messaging capability so we can communicate directly with his teacher.

Cons

It's a little clunky. Sometimes messages go through and sometimes they don't. Autocorrect doesn't work in the app. This isn't a big deal but different than what people have become used to.

Thank you for taking the time to review Child Care Seer. We're so glad you are enjoying our Daily Journals with photos and detailed activities for your child! We love the idea of Teacher profiles for parents, and we'll consider adding this as a feature. We're sorry you've had some trouble sending messages. If you find this to be an ongoing problem, we are happy to assist if you reach out to us via the Seer help button.

Nothing- this program is garbage. May as well not have it

Cons

This doesn't work for shared parenting. Each parent should have their own account instead of this mess! Also the fees to use a card are ridiculous!

Response from Vendor

March 7, 2023

Thank you for taking the time to leave an honest review. We're sorry you've found use of the app disappointing. In order to support many different family situations, each parent does have their own account which allows both individual messaging and payments to the center. If you'd like to reach out to us at via the Seer help button or email seer\_support@childcareseer.com, we'd be happy to work with you and the center to help improve the experience you're having. As far as fees for using cards, electronic payment processing always involves a cost. We provide a choice to the schools using the software of how they'd like to handle those fees. Some schools prefer to have some (or all) of the fees passed along to the parents, and others build it into their price. Either way, the fees are unfortunately part of accepting electronic payments.
