Pros The system is so robust to ensure there is a complete touchpoint process for leads coming in. The whole process to bring a family in and track all of the tasks needed through the process to start the family is great. We use the communication tool as our main way to communicate with families. Cons We would like some more options to customize certain categories and a PCI compliance for data/forms.

Director Child Day Care Services ### "Good Basic CRM for Child Care" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 June 6, 2024 This was a great system to help us keep track of our leads. The company is growing in directions that we don't need. If we were a start-up, we might consider more of the new features. Pros Easy to set up with decent customer support. Cons I am not a fan of the new interface and I don't use the new features that have been developed. Reasons for choosing LineLeader by ChildcareCRM At the time, this was the best available that did the job we needed.

Director Education Management ### "Childcare Software for Waitlist" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 1/10 September 6, 2022 Although I was very excited to have this software - my google spreadsheets seemed easier to use. They difficulty and clutter of the tasks and different explanations of stages made it extremely hard to navigate. The software was supposed (and advertised) to be compatible with the parent communication app we used - but unfortunately, the flaws in the system made it impossible to connect the two. Pros The idea of the software is great and HIGHLY needed in Childcare settings. Cons The features are great on paper. Unfortunately, the execution of the features are flawed. It is too hard to move individuals from stage to stage in the enrollment process.

Executive Director Education Management ### "I'm sure it works for some but not me" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 2.0 2.0 Likelihood to Recommend 4/10 February 25, 2021 We were really excited to implement but the customer service experience left some to be desired. We wanted a more personal interaction rather than "watch the help videos", at least to get us up and running. Pros The features appeared to be what we needed, multiple ways to communicate with portential clients, automation appeared to be facilitated Cons The software is difficult to understand, the flow is tedious and does not automate everything I wanted it to Alternatives considered [IntelliKid Systems](https://www.capterra.com/p/193374/IntelliKid-Systems/) Reasons for choosing LineLeader by ChildcareCRM We thought it would serve us best with all of its features Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Director Education Management ### "Childcare CRM to track leads" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 17, 2020 Overall, I have had excellent experiences with the professionals that work in the customer service department and check to make sure that I am continuing to do well while operating the software. Pros I love that this software takes our extensive waitlist and makes it manageable to keep up with correspondence and questions so that those on the waitlist feel like we forgot about them or lost their information. The templates speed up the email process and with it being automated I don't really have to think about it. Cons I have had a few struggles with the app connection when trying to use the Childcare CRM app on my phone/iPad. I have had some difficulty with bringing up my to-do list for follow up while working remotely. I can easily remedy this by logging into the full website though. Switched from [School CRM](https://www.capterra.com/p/136081/School-CRM/) The School CRM program made it harder for us to get up and going. There was a lot of groundwork to get the templates set up and programmed. The program was a little hard to get to fit our waitlist needs. Reasons for choosing LineLeader by ChildcareCRM The reviews for Childcare CRM drew us in to investigate but the demos at conference were what really sealed the deal for us. It met all our needs and even prioritized our waitlist to accommodate our siblings, parishioners, and then general applicants.

Getting better all the time. Support is always awesome when I have questions. Pros I love the information that is automatically sent to our Procare reporting. Cons It does not always communicate properly with procare. I would like to be able to attached documents to send to families also. Reasons for choosing LineLeader by ChildcareCRM It was Childrens Lighthouse home office that chose it.
