I would consider..

Alliance Core is an experience! I am so happy that I am able to be apart of it. The program itself is rich, full of benefits I know that have yet to tapped into!

PROS

What I like most about the software is that you can play around/search for things and you will be able to find what you are looking for. If all that doesn’t work the staff is always willing to help you!!

CONS

One of my cons for the program is and this may sound silly but.. I am not correct type of typer where the time has to look right for the block to be ok (ex 7:38am) l like to just be able to get in and be able to do it and the block know what I mean like (ex 738am) it to me will save time when adding numbers in a space. Also I still have to print paperwork to send to CCCP.. wish that can be eliminated.

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

It was offered to me as a trail for free☺️ However, this program is something I consider for purchasing.

Great Reports

We have had great experience, there has been time of frustration learning the system as it changed over the years. They are always upgrade and adding to make it an easier system with more option to use.

PROS

That you can useful information in a short time, I use the system every day to check on attendance and then can follow up with parents if there is an issue that we can help with. Licensing reports help me stay on track with staff trainings, I do my food reports, there is so many useful reports at my fingertips.

CONS

That there is no payroll feature, I had always done my payroll in procare so when we dropped it I had to go to a payroll service for director payroll, but 7 employees do not have account, so I am now doing them by hand.

Reasons for switching to Alliance CORE

I partnered with Early Head Start and the system they asked us to use.

Review

They are very helpful if you call and ask questions. They do not make much effort to change.

PROS

The system is an all in one platform for everything I need. I can manage billing, attendance, staff, payroll, and access this from anywhere.

CONS

The reports offered are not user friendly or customizable. There are many opportunities for streamlines reporting that are not available through this system. We often find that we have to use two septate reports to cover everything that we need access to. I have contacted the company a few times with no response about the verbiage they use for families. They use primary parent and secondary parent, which is absurd to think that a child should have a primary or secondary. We have also expressed concern for the verbiage concerning gender. You either have to choose Female or Male or choose not to answer. The question here is why do families need to fit into one of two boxes or not get to answer. I know many people that are proud of their gender fluidity and its frustrating that they are making no effort to fix it.

Reasons for switching to Alliance CORE

We had a shift in administration and this program was supported by the third party we are using for our accounts receivable.

Rural small preschool

I love it for attendance and ATS. Still learning some functionality and looking forward to using the tuition payment option (maybe( in the summer.

PROS

We use this feature becuase it collects attendance and it automatically connects it to the ATS for CCAP. This is a HUGE help. The barcode for easy check in is amazing.

CONS

doing staff files on line. It is incredibly time consuming to scan in each this, especially because we have to have a paper file anyway. I tried to utilize this feature and it wasn't necessary.

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

its ability to feed attendance to the state for CCAP

A wonderful tool

Overall, I have been very impressed. They are always willing to help and have been patient if I have had to ask more than once. I think it covers each facet needed for the business.

PROS

This program has been easy to learn and has helped immensely with the efficient running of the school.

CONS

Not sure as I am still learning about all the features. I do wish there was more hands on training when I purchased it. Having said that, the support I have received from the company has been outstanding. They are always willing to help, usually in a timely manner.

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

Because they are a company located in Denver, they can work directly with licensing in the state and they are always available to lend support.

Core

I absolutely love it, I just wish I knew more about it. I wish I knew enough to utilize everything that it offers because it offers so much. It is such an incredible program

PROS

I like the fact that I can Track attendance and attendance for staff as well. I like how it keeps all the files in one place so I don’t have to keep paper files so I Licensing comes it’s a fast trip. One thing I didn’t like about this survey he did not have my industry so I picked arts and crafts with actually I’m a child care provider

CONS

Actually there’s nothing about the software I don’t like

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

It was provided to my child care from Early Learning Ventures at a very discounted rate

Loving Hands Childcare Review

My overall experience has been very pleasant and anytime I have had an issue or simply needed help I got an immediate response from customer service.

PROS

I love the billing aspect of the system. It bills automatically and the parents are able to pay weekly via the app and communicate with the school. I love the report system, makes for less paperwork for me.

CONS

in the billing system, I whish when a parent inquires late fee that it shows up the next day instead of later in the week. So the late fee can be paid the week of being late verses paying it on the next payment.

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

I ultimately chose it because it was a promotion that was gifted to us as family care worker as well as testing it to see if it meets the needs of my business. And it meets my needs and I have no desire to go elsewhere. The product is great, the customer service is awesome, and the price is just right!

Fantastic Purchase

Amazing! It has changed the way we do business.

PROS

The customer service is incredible and they take into account your needs and work to resolve any issues as well as customize reports to fit your needs. It is simple, effective, and easy to use!

CONS

Would like to see more administrative access to what teachers are logging and communicating with parents. Would like staff to be able to communicate with each other, and admin to be able to view it. Would also like more one page tutorials with less color that we can print to assist families in using the parent portal and features.

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

The customer services was the top reason.

CORE - All records in one program

I can send information to our partners easily.

PROS

CORE keeps our records all in one place. We have several financial partners as we are in an economically challenged community. Having pertinent information all together and easy to access is crucial.

CONS

Once I learned to use the program (I am a bit tech challenged) I have found it easy to use and have no problems at this time.

Preschool Benefits from using Alliance CORE

Online enrollment and records being kept safely off site have been huge positives for using Alliance CORE, we have greatly cutback on the amount of paper and ink being used for our enrollment process, which is helpful with time, economy and environmentally.

PROS

One of the main features that made me choose Alliance CORE was the fact that it could be linked to the CCCAP attendance tracking system and report the attendance of students. One less chore for me. We also have had great customer support in setting up the system and using it.

CONS

The software has been playing catch up to other systems, with parent/teacher communication, etc. I would also like to be able to add reports that our helpful to just our center.

Reason for choosing Alliance CORE

Alliance CORE offered a great deal for the first year to get started and have kept their costs lower than some other software companies. One of the main features that made me choose Alliance CORE was the fact that it could be linked to the CCCAP attendance tracking system and report the attendance of students.

Great value for the price a must have

The experience has been very positive! the response is personal and quick.

PROS

How easy it is to operate. Tracking of attendance and enrollment is the best and very important to our operations. The fact that it integrated with the CCAP system is a must. Our families do not have to use two systems. The Core system and ATS system "talk" to each other.

CONS

Love the product, Love the people, and even have ongoing trainings!

PROS

Interface with the State and rate of pay from CCCAP is much faster making it a one time sign in for parents.

CONS

Wish it would intergrate with the CIIS also so we could just download the shot records with no mistakes instead of just looking at them in their database.

KidKare does not connect with the state and does not include shot records.

Easy decision to go with ELV.

After using other similar products, Alliance CORE is the easy choice. All features work well, customer service is unbeatable, and it is everything we need without unnecessary, confusing additional features.

PROS

I like that the features work well with other systems (CCAP, CACFP, Accounting software, etc.). Also tracking attendance for both students and staff with one kiosk is so simple.

CONS

I would like to be able to add CCAP payments to the CCAP Ledger, it does not always reflect what we have received.

Reasons for switching to Alliance CORE

It aligns with the Colorado CCAP system so seamlessly.
