The time that has been provided to us, to ensure success has been very appreciated. ----- ### "Initial use and overall impression of Crafts and their client support" — 5.0/5 > **Richard** | *March 4, 2024* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The process for billing, tracking and processing payments, and the underlying encryption and security of the information in our portfolio . Additionally, the process in managing our families and enrolments is intuitive and robust. There are still many new things I am discovering daily, but overall I am very happy with the software. It is stressful when switching over to new management software, but the support we received from \[sensitive content hidden\] and his team during our set up phase (we actually just starting using Crafts March 1st 2024 after initial training and rollout) was above and beyond my expectations. They are very responsive to any queries, and their support training videos are great reference resources during the initial start up phase. I would recommend their product without reservation\! > > **Cons**: None so far, meets our needs, has flexibility, and great support > > Overall, we are very pleased with Crafts, and although we have only been using it for a short period of time, we really like it's design and flexibility. ----- ### "CRAFTS is Just what we were Looking for" — 4.0/5 > **Virginia** | *January 4, 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We were looking for a way to move our daycare reporting and attendance and communication with parents online as well as making billing a simpler process and CRAFTS is just what we were looking for. > > **Cons**: Some of the features have taken some time to get used to and doing so much online takes some adjustments ----- ### "CRAFTS is a fabulous program" — 5.0/5 > **Shannon** | *November 27, 2024* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to use and staff are wonderful to deal with. > > **Cons**: Notifications need to slow down a bit but other than that it is a great program. > > Excellent program with supreme efficiency and easy to maneuver through different functions. ----- ### "Great software\!" — 5.0/5 > **Gabrielle** | *July 16, 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Looked at a few different platforms, but CRAFTS made the most sense for our needs and specifications\! The customer service team is very responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. The team was able to fulfill a lot of our specific requests and tweaks, and they are very quick to respond to questions. > > **Cons**: Although CRAFTS does have an email option, there is no current option to have a sort of inbox (or see past sent emails). You send off an email, and that's it; parents and staff must respond to YOUR work email, so it takes the communication off crafts and onto another platform. We are still working out our messaging/communication functions and seeing what works best for our team\! > > Overall I really like CRAFTS, and how easy it is to use. As an Admin, I need to be familiar will all current aspects of our software package, and CRAFTS is great to answer all questions, and apply tweaks when possible. Our facility has never used a software for childcare management, so we of course had a lot of questions, however CRAFTS was able to develop something for us that suits a lot of our needs. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/130287/crafts?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/130287/crafts) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
