Educa is a cloud-based communications platform for child care centers, preschools and early learning programs. It enables teachers, parents and administrators to communicate and stay informed about student milestones, program goals and student information.

The planning and assessment module helps teachers set learning goals and share progress with parents.

Educa
Whenever I have a problem, which isn't very often, the staff are always very helpful and prompt in helping me out and they can always sort out my problem.
Pros
I really like the ease of Educa and how I can use it at work, at home or on my phone. It is a great resource for us to keep in touch with whanau - routines, messages, daily diary and learning stories. Parents are more likely to comment on learning stories as well as giving us stories from home.
Cons
Would like a few more borders, but it isn't a major issue for us.

Best Documentation Program I have Used
Incessant and time consuming paperwork and record keeping are dramatically and easily reduced. Staff are extremely helpful and pleasant.
Pros
Ease of use for documentation and sharing with parents and other educators. Integration with existing business methods was a non event because this easily replaced the numerous other things I was using.
Cons
Some of the things that this program does are not simple for me to understand. More because I am not computer literate enough rather than the program being at fault.
Reasons for Choosing Educa
Cost and ease of use as well as a more well rounded program for my needs
Reasons for Switching to Educa
Initially cost then ease of use once I trialled Educa.

easy to use and access required information
Pros
An accessible menu, easy to follow time line. I appreciate how simple it is to find the information and updates I am after.
Cons
The design/aesthetics, more specifically how photos appear. Feels a little cheesy and dated. Some of this may be to do with how it is used by the preschool staff?
