Tuio has been a fantastic tool to move our school into online payments and invoice management.
Tuio allowed us to streamline our enrolment and tuition payment processes. We are moving away from handling post-dated cheques to online direct payments. This is both a better user experience for our parents as well as saving time and generating efficiencies in the administration. It really is a Win Win!
PROSWhat I like most about Tuio is that it is built from the ground up as a payment software, instead of an added-on after thought. The system is intuitive and simple to navigate while being powerful on the backend to support our needs. Our parents have had nothing but good things to say about how much they like the system.
CONSThere are a few features which would be nice to have such as the ability to modify the payment amounts once an invoice has been issued; however, Tuio has been very responsive to suggestions and is continually publishing new features/functionality.
Vendor Response
Hi Glenn, Thank you for the great feedback, which we are taking into account for the next release phases.

Keeping accounts up to date and transparent!
TUIO has made administrative processes much easier. In addition to the payment processing options, TUIO has helped to create online registration forms and links. There is an increased level of organization and efficient procedures. The tech support and immediate response when we need help is amazing. Again this has added to the experience.
PROSTUIO has made our payment processing procedures so much easier from the Administration end; payments are made easily and are trackable. Families are able to keep their accounts up to date and check their accounts easily. The automated messaging and reminders of withdrawals, missed payments, new charges etc., keeps the client families aware. All payments are traceable and can easily be tracked. The technical support that TUIO provides is wonderful as well. They are easy to reach and respond with solutions that work.
CONSI can not comment on this. Anytime there was an issue or help was needed, TUIO responded.

They have always responded quickly to any questions or concerns that I may have had.
PROSThere customer service and response time is outstanding. I have always heard from them when I have a question that needs answering.
CONSThe forms feature is not the easiest to work with. Cannot format them how I would like.
Reasons for switching to TUIO
Because of the forms feature they showed in the demo looked amazing and wanted everything in one place.

Thank you for your review, Laurie. The form PDF formatting will be updated soon as a result of your prior feedback, so stay tuned for that!

Overall is good. It is a time-saving but needs some improvements.
PROSI like Ease of use and availability of data.
CONSTUIO charges which make things difficult to reconcile accounts (revenue & receivables)
Vendor Response
Thank you for your review, Nauman. Regarding the charges, the reports on TUIO are customizable based on the selected filters, so it should be possible to reconcile the accounts accordingly without difficulty. Stay tuned for our next release update which will be coming shortly. You will be able to create custom templates for more convenient reporting, and there will also be a component for GL account mapping of revenue and expense items, which will help you with efficiency of reconciliation.

We love TUIO!
Apart from the initial learning curve (it was my first time using this kind of program) it has been great. We had a manual spreadsheet system prior and TUIO has saved tons of time.
PROSThe website is quick, easy to use and the customer service is excellent.

Reasonable Tuition Payment Platform
The setup process was relatively easy and the customer support is great.
PROSI like the invoicing, payment options and discount options. I feel they have really thought of every option needed to process payment for Tuition and Registration Fees.
CONSI was very excited to offer our parents a place to pay their tuition and enroll, all in one place. When I created the enrollment forms, I was very disappointed with the lack to customize and making the forms look beautiful. It seems like they forgot that schools might need a different way to handle field trips. There is also little customization when it comes to automating messages after a form is completed.
Reason for choosing TUIO
Tuio was by far the most reasonable product. I was quoted over 10k for our school by other tuition/enrolment platforms.
Reasons for switching to TUIO
I wanted everything in one place.
Vendor Response
Hi Shari, thank you for the helpful review. This week we added a new custom field that should give you more flexibility to present information on the form and add various elements that should come in handy. The field is called 'Content', please give it a try or reach out to support@tuiopay.com for more info. Our forms can be used for field trips, I would love to hear more and will contact you on that piece. You can customize the message sent out when reviewing the registrations after a form is completed, but I'll see what we can add for the automated element as well!

Great value, very user friendly
Overall it has provided a fast, easy way to organize and charge for our enrolments in various programs.
PROSAs enrolment and payment processing software it's very user friendly and when needed, the customer service is fast and helpful. It is easy to manage and change invoices and refund full or partial invoices. The way registrations are set up is flexible with multiple options.
CONSAs an SIS it is not fully developed. There are issues with enrolments in different programs causing duplicate students. Each enrolment is linked only to the parent who pays the invoice.
Reasons for switching to TUIO
Blackbaud didn't provide payment processing built in (in Canada), was not as user friendly on the back end, and was far more expensive. We didn't use it to the fullest of its capacity and just needed a simpler solution.
Vendor Response
Thank you for the helpful review! Be on the lookout for other SIS features in the near future.

Survey Feedback
Nice!
PROSIts UI/UX and ease of use in general, and the filtering options
CONSthe fact that i cannot tell how much money we received in our bank deposited per month, unless i download the forms and calculate it somehow myself (it also gives me the perception that tuio wants to hide the fees that it charges parents or us for us not to see)
Reasons for switching to TUIO
TUIO is more tailored towards Ed specifically
Vendor Response
Thanks for the review Endrit! You can absolutely easily see how much you've received, as the deposit payout amounts are shown on the invoice export (with the corresponding invoices for reconciliation purposes), as well as the applicable fees. We are transparent about the processing fees involved with online payments and we have columns for them on the export for calculating your expenses. I'll have support reach out to you to spotlight how easy it is to reconcile your payments. Even big 3rd party auditors have given us unsolicited feedback of how easy the TUIO export made their life during a school audit compared to previous systems the school used.

TUIO Changed My Life
TUIO has saved me countless hours on accounting and now I have more free time to hang out with the kiddos - which is what I love to do! I also love that TUIO doesn't cost me an arm and a leg - I am a small business and the cost of the software was a big factor for me. TUIO charges me $1.50 per invoice processed (this can be passed on to the person paying the invoice if you choose). TUIO charges my families $0 if they pay via checking account and standard credit card fees if they pay via credit card. After using TUIO for nearly a year, I feel this is an exceptional value. I highly recommend!!
PROSTUIO has changed my life! I have a small after school child care business and I also offer summer camps. Previous to TUIO, I was emailing an invoice every month and families were submitting payment via Venmo. I was spending many hours a month on invoicing and was tracking everything manually for end of year reporting. I recently expanded my child care business and I needed a simple way to set up monthly invoicing with an auto pay option for my enrolled families. TUIO has been the perfect solution. The software is easy to use, offers intuitive enrollment set up and there are many reports that you can pull for more detailed data analysis. With TUIO, I enroll a family one time in my program and set up their payment plan for the year. The system sends an email to the parent to set up their payment information that authorizes all invoices for the year. Every month when the payment is processed, it is automatically deposited into my business account and the parents receive an email receipt. TUIO is so easy to use for this purpose. I can't say enough good things about it!
CONSTUIO is an accounting system for childcare services. It doesn't have all the extra bells and whistles of check in/out, messaging services and in depth student profiles that some software has. I didn't want or need those extra features for an after school program -- TUIO does exactly what I was looking for. Setting up new "Program" can be tricky. I have only done it twice - once for the school year enrollment and once for summer camp enrollment. Since I don't do it often, I set up a video chat with TUIO customer service and they have helped me both times. TUIO customer service is AMAZING by the way. They are responsive and available.

Great customer support
The software is easy to use and intuitive. Customer support is very accessible and typically has answers to questions in a timely manner. I've often used the chat when needing support and almost always I get the answer that is needed and when it is not I usually get a follow up when issues are identified.
CONSIntegration was not difficult at all and someone was always available if I had any difficulty. Perhaps a more comprehensive account interface might be a little easier. For example: Parent as the account holder and children listed under each parent instead of each child has their own account and is associated with each parent. I can describe it more if you wish to contact me.
Reason for choosing TUIO
TUIO seemed like a young organization with a good understanding of how streamlining certain processes is important.
Reasons for switching to TUIO
For ease of use for families to make online payments.
Vendor Response
Thank you for the review Ethel. What you described in terms of the interface is already native in the software by using the 'Parents' tab you can view the parent account holder and all associated students that they have. You can even use the 3 vertical dot menu to view the related students and enrollments. Enrollments on TUIO are always a student enrolled in a program. Please contact support@tuiopay.com if you want to schedule a meeting to chat on the use case.

CONSHave been giving feedback to the TUIO team re: make available enhanced ability to send emails to our clients directly. Currently using 'Mailchimp'. Other small features such as ability to 'Export' data from different tabs.
Vendor Response
Thank you for the review Harpinder. We added the export option on the student, parent, enrollment, and registration tabs in addition to the 'Invoices' tab export we had previously. So we took care of that for the most part. We are going to add a combined student/parent export as well going live this week! We will work on the second iteration of the conversations system to add the email and text message options. Hopefully when those are live we can get the "5 star" review!

Superior and Quick Customer Service
The overall experience on TUIO is superb, in particular, the customer service e-mail or telephone response is instantaneous in (real-time). I was astonishingly impressed with the way in which [sensitive content hidden] responded to our cirumstances.
PROSTUIO is extremely user friendly and interactive because it enables the end user to navigate throughout the site and pin point the precise area that needs pivotal attention or what needs to be addressed. Precisely because it is so (transparent) is what makes it a necessary platform to run a business successully!

A great system
The user interface is nice and clean. TUIO takes the hassle out of allowing parents to pay in instalments. Customer support has always been really fast and responsive, whether I've had a question about how something works or a feature request. And all payments have gone through as expected.
CONSThere are exceptional cases where things can be confusing, for example, parents receiving an invoice for zero dollars that has a due date. The data export process for invoices is great, but refunds issued aren't easy to track with the exported data.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the review Adina. Parents with an invoice discounted or credited to 0, you can use the 'Mark as Paid' feature so they are marked as paid at 0 amount before the due date. We have a component to do this automatically going live in the near future. Have a look at the 'Transactions' tab of the invoice export, which should make it a lot easier to see the refunds occurring on a given invoice. As you are aware an invoice can have multiple transaction so that is where the data is most visible! Always appreciate the feedback.

Simple tuition management service
Very quick onboarding and simple low pressure barrier to get started. Software itself is simple and cleanly designed and straightforward to use. We really liked the ability for families to manage their own payment methods and choosing a plan that suits them best. When they run into issues, they are able to reach out to TUIO's support directly which saves us a lot of overhead time. We are a learner-driven community and this allow us to live to that promise and not to need too many staffs to support the back office.

TUIO Review from CHMS
I think the team at TUIO has done a great job creating a user friendly and easy to use program, and their customer support is fantastic.
PROSIt is very user friendly and allows me the flexibility needed to provide a variety of payment options to our families.
CONSAfter the recent update I can no longer add two separate accounts for students whose parents require this option. I have found a way around it, but it just isn't as convenient.
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for the review Kayla! After the recent update you're now able to add a second parent to a student profile. Once that is done you can create a student enrolment for both parents if need be. It's for sure a new concept but it shouldn't be any less convenient then on the previous version of TUIO.

Good Bones, Needs Fleshing Out
Customer service was responsive and courteous.
CONSIt felt like there was six ways to do the same thing and only one way to get the information to present correctly. No ability to do partial payments on your own. Parent's need to approve when I make changes to their account... it was an uphill battle to learn the tips and tricks on how to work the system... should not feel that way.
Vendor Response
Thanks for taking the time to review Lauren. TUIO is an automated payment system, so partial payments of an invoice is not a native feature. School admin or TUIO support can accommodate partial payments if the parent ever needs by editing the invoice and adding an invoice for the remainder. TUIO automatically approves the invoice changes made after 5 days, so if the parent doesn't approve them it will get taken care of. TUIO is constantly acclaimed for our user friendliness and ease of use, so if you ever need help with the system, we are here to help!
