## Reviews

### "Have Yet to Find a Better Option :)" — 4.0/5

> **Jessica** | *24 October 2025* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Procare Solutions provides our school with the best software option we have found. Every other year or so we shop around to see what newly exists or has been updated that might better accommodate; we have yet to find a competing software that does anywhere near what Procare accomplishes for anywhere near the price point.
> 
> **Cons**: Our school's enrollment and schedule structure (where students enroll in multiple classes and different programs through the year) requires several workarounds/nonintuitive uses of Procare Desktop's tracking \&amp; tags, as the generic options do not accommodate our schedule structure. Additionally, there are a handful of features in Procare Online/Procare App that we would prefer more flexibility/options for.
> 
> Procare Solution's support help and tech help are generally very responsive; the software options provide a decent (though not perfect) fit for our needs; the systems/technology generally functions as intended (with occasional tech glitches/system-wide issues).

### "Procare for your care" — 5.0/5

> **Michelle** | *09 April 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It’s so easy to keep parents up to date in real time\! The parents love that they can see how their child is doing, while they’re at work.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes it kicks families out. I have to take time to explain how to log back in/change their password
> 
> I have been using procare for 4 years and wouldn’t change it\! I love the ease of pushing a button to update eating, sleeping, and toileting

### "Promises Support, Delivers Silence" — 1.0/5

> **Kaitlyn** | *11 March 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I will say signing up was quick and easy, and communication during the sales process was fast and helpful. Unfortunately, that changed immediately after we became customers.
> 
> **Cons**: The biggest issue is customer support — or the complete lack of it. Before purchasing, support was responsive and helpful. After signing up, it has been nearly impossible to get ahold of anyone. Calls go unanswered, and emails often receive no response at all. In our case, we have never received a response back to emails asking for help. When you rely on software to manage payments and child care operations, not being able to reach support is unacceptable.
> 
> We chose Procare hoping it would make things easier for our staff and families. Instead, it has created constant stress. &#10;&#10;Another major concern is billing. Rates that were discussed and promised during the sales process are not what we are being charged. When questions come up about these discrepancies, there is no one available to resolve them. When money is involved, the inability to get answers is extremely concerning.&#10;&#10;We’ve also experienced software issues that affect daily operations, but again, there is no support available to help troubleshoot or fix them.&#10;&#10;This program is advertised as something that should make life easier for child care providers and staff who are already working hard to care for children. Instead, it has done the opposite. It adds frustration, confusion, and unnecessary stress to an already busy environment.&#10;&#10;For a company serving child care providers, reliable support should be the bare minimum. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience with Procare.

### "Procare is a plus" — 5.0/5

> **Beth** | *09 April 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to maneuver around, I like to be able to edit also. Easy to post pics and keep track of everything
> 
> **Cons**: Not being able to “react” to parents messages. Sometimes instead of having to actually respond back to a message it would e nice if we could just do a heart or thumbs up.
> 
> Overall it’s a great app. It’s very easy to use. Uploading pics is so easy as well. Being able to go in detail is nice

### "Good program\!" — 4.0/5

> **Amy** | *09 April 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We love all the features of Procare\! Check in/check out, invoices, and messages get used the most. It helps with our day to day.
> 
> **Cons**: Parents and teachers tend to get kicked out and have to reset their passwords more often than we feel is necessary.
> 
> Overall we have enjoyed using Procare. Most parents like the different features, especially being able to check on their children throughout the day.
