The Camp Brain staff is always friendly and very willing to help with any issues. Pros We are a long-time user of Camp Brain because we find it easy to use for both our staff and for parents/guests. We really like the fact that it functions as unified database, no need to input household information into multiple platforms! Their customer support is friendly, listens well, is helpful, and is easy to reach! We also love the that they offer their own payment processing and their rates are very affordable! They also are very responsive to suggestions on ways to improve Camp Brain. Highly recommend! 5 stars! Cons Hmmm . . . not sure what we like the least . . . we do wish that it offered NCOA processing to update mailing addresses against the USPS address database.

This is by far one of the better programs I have used in my 40 years in the hospitality business. Pros I am a Venue Rentals Manager. I like the ease of use in entering Venue Renters their room needs and all the details that help with ensuring all facets of the event go smoothly. Cons The only real con I have is the process of having to rebook meetings for a year span and having to the tedious rebook each.

Great Customer service!" 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 October 3, 2025 In addition to CampBrain being a great product, the online support materials and webinars are fantastic! They make things very easy to understand and provide answers to lots of questions. The support staff is phenomenal! They're are very responsive and most times have the answer immediately. On those very rare occasions when they don't, they do some research and get an answer to you very quickly. They are always very professional and courteous and it's always a pleasure talking to them! Pros \- CampBrain makes both camper registration and hiring staff very easy. - It's easy to use and navigation is very intuitive. - Cloning previous seasons makes setting up new seasons easier. - Establishing and modifying Payment Plans is very easy. - Families can upload required documents and the reporting and emailing functions make it easy to review status and email families needing reminders. - Doing both universal and selective email blasts are easy and I love being able to set it up to be sent out on future days and knowing it's going to happen. - The support library is very helpful. I can easily learn to do new things and get questions answered. - The Support Staff is fantastic! They're knowledgeable, very responsive, professional and courteous! - Love the user conference! I learn a lot from the sessions, chatting with the staff and meeting other users. There's a lot of flexibility in how to use CampBrain and it's always interesting to learn from others on their creative use of features. Cons \- There's a bit of a learning curve in mastering the use of report filters to get the information I wanted and learning to use the Ad Hoc report function.

Office Manager Child Day Care Services ### "CampBrain is Lit!" 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 October 1, 2025 We've been using CampBrain for 4 years, and we like it more with each iteration. Each year, we have different needs as we try to streamline our process, and they're always able to meet our needs. Pros CampBrain's customer support is outstanding, and the product itself is very nimble. Definitely worth the price. Cons Because of the superior customer support, there's actually nothing I dislike about it. There are a lot of options we don't use, but that's what makes it so nimble for any organization. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 6, 2025 Thanks for the kind words, Michelle! We're glad that CampBrain has the flexibility to meet your needs. And of course, the customer support. We take a lot of pride in that. Thank you for being a customer! AC Alison C. Camp Administrator Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Software that supports camps with team that suports their users" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 1, 2025 Overall very positive. Whenever I hit a snag with CampBrain, customer support has my back. Custom reporting is very handy, I found it easy to use, and a couple new reports significantly upgraded my camp's first aid management. Pros Customer support is extremely helpful and accessible. No question is too small. The webinars cover anything I would ever need and have very clear explanations and demonstrations. Cons My greatest issue is that emails I sent via CampBrain consistently went to the junk boxes of most recipients. Important information was being missed. I then opted to use an ad-hoc report (which was easy to make) to send mass emails manually. Frustrating but it worked. I am hoping this can be improved. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 6, 2025 Thanks for the review and feedback Alison! We're always glad to hear that customers find value in the reporting and that customer support is there when you need it. We're always working hard to improve - thanks for being a customer! JC Jim C. Executive Director Hospitality ### "You get whats promised." 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 October 1, 2025 Excellent experience. When we call or email with an issue it's followed up on quickly. We use it extensively as we create our financial budgets for the new year. Pros It performs as advertised, and the response to any issues we have are quick and friendly. Running reports and creating new reports has been a very valuable tool. Cons Like any complex tool, teaching new people is not always easy. Once you catch on it becomes easy, but new people struggle.

All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 7, 2025 Hey Jim, thanks for the review! We're glad you've had an excellent experience, that CampBrain performs up to your expectations, and you find value in the reports. Thanks for being a customer! KN Kristin N. Senior Director Religious Institutions ### "Happy customer!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 September 30, 2025 We've been with CampBrain since 2012 and it's been great! They're always working towards improvements and have great customer service. Pros CampBrain is extremely user friendly for camp, conference, and donor modules. It has great value and I'm thankful we don't have to pay per registration. Customer Support is great and always responds in a timely manner. I love the custom reports / Ad-Hoc capabilities. Super happy with the products! Cons \- MUST improve that staff application custom questions with more formatting capabilities and clickable hyperlinks. Also wish we could select certain custom questions to be on the person level (and not seasonal) so volunteers wouldn't have to fill out EVERYTHING each summer (just reconfirm it). - I wish the auto-emailer was available in the conference module (without having to do the work around in the donor portal). - REALLY need a notification/email or had a dashboard for on-line group payments in the conference module. Also need the ability to automatically add a credit card processing fee to those payments in the group payment portal. - I've requested this a number of times, but it would be extremely helpful to be able to view the actual attachments in the contact log (not just the doc name). - The speed has improved since this summer's debacle, but it's still not as fast as it once was. - I wish we could text message group/conference leaders and volunteers (not just camper parents). - Still anxiously waiting for the rental interest form that automatically creates an inquiry in CB and NOTIFIES us / need dashboard. - I also would love to be able to manually adjust the order on a camper waitlist. Switched from [CampDoc](https://www.capterra.com/p/119061/CampDoc-com/) We came from CampTrak (not listed) - We needed more capabilities and a more user-friendly product for part-time staff. Alternatives considered [CampWise](https://www.capterra.com/p/79178/CampWise/) Reasons for choosing CampBrain We chose CampBrain for the great price and ease of use.

We're glad that you find it user-friendly, appreciate the support, and find value in the reports. Add thanks for the great feedback! That honesty is one (really just another) thing we love about our customers and campers. Thanks for being candid and a customer for more than a decade! EJ Emily J.

Pros CampBrain is awesome for camp and program management including registration, payment processing and email communication. Their customer support is amazing and I always get my questions answered quickly. Cons Sometimes I am challenged to search for the correct report as requested by the accounting department but once I have called Customer Service and found it. I can easily replicate it next time.

Thanks for being a great customer! SW Stephanie W. Guest Services and Office Specialist Hospitality ### "We Love CampBrain!!" 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 September 26, 2025 Excellent! We started off with the desktop version and used that for a very long time. We switched to the online based version in 2020 and love it! Pros It is very user friendly, each to teach/learn and covers 95% of our needs. Any time we've had an issue, they promptly assist us. Their turn around time for custom reports is great. The user facing side is easy to use as well and our parents have loved the online registration. The introduction of the retreat booking portal was a game changer! Being able to send emails from the system on both sides has been great as it creates a record that everyone can see. All these features have streamlined so many processes for us and freed up time that we can use elsewhere. Cons There's no app for phones/tablets. A lot of reports don't run on phones/tablets, so that has made it hard to use on the go. A little more customization would be great. On the retreat side, when searching for groups, if there is a group that has been with you a long time, it's a long list of them and you have to search for the group you are looking for because it will only color code by Booking Stage and not Booking Status. If it could color code by Booking Status, I could easily create a file closed status and then I could quickly find current bookings while searching.

Also, we were already using the desktop version so the transition was much smoother.

We have a very strong Campbrain user as our administrative coordinator and it has kept everything very organized. Pros Does almost everything we need to run camp, bookings, registration, financials, etc. It's organized very well and our staff all love using it. Cons Perhaps that we aren't fully utilizing all the features and everything it can do. We are sending a staff member to the CB conference to learn even more.
