Using Youth Center in a small department

We are a small juvenile probation department with a small budget. Youth Center has given us an excellent tool to manage cases, maintain records, and storage for documents. It is so helpful for every worker to have access to the same information when covering for someone else is needed. We use the system daily and it has streamlined our business in a lot of ways.

PROS

All data companies are helpful in the sales and onboarding stages, Youth Center included. Where Youth Center shines is the follow up support. Years after purchase we are still getting support and assistance whenever it is needed. Youth Center is regularly updated and we are clearly informed what changes we can expect to see from the update. We are regularly asked for our input when the system is making changes that are most helpful to the actual users.

CONS

Some things may be easier with the system when they finally merge their old and new systems. But we have been given a lot of support on how to use the system as it currently functions.

Reason for choosing YouthCenter

Youth Center was more economical and the onboarding staff was extremely helpful.

Reasons for switching to YouthCenter

Youth Center is far more economical than Ritetrack and the follow up support from Youth Center far surpasses anything we received from Handel.

Vendor Response

Great asset for any detention facility

My overall experience has been wonderful. Whenever assistance is needed we get it quickly. Customer service has been above and beyond expectations!

PROS

Ease of use especially when searching for specific events as well as creating reports with all different types of data points.

CONS

Does not connect with other Facilities in order to help other Counties/Facilities to see info prior to Clients arriving.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review! We work hard to provide fast customer support and continue to build on our feature set based on input from users like yourself. We do have in our backlog a feature that will allow a jurisdiction to push client data into YouthCenter (if both are using YC). Data-sharing agreements will need to be in place between jurisdictions to allow for this. Hopefully, this feature will help reduce the time it takes to intake a client and provide some additional insight into a juvenile prior to intake. We're always looking for suggestions to improve our software. Feel free to fill out the form at https://www.youthcenter.net/contact to submit your suggestions.

A must for youth case management

I have found the overall experience with YouthCenter to be a game changer for managing cases. Prior to this system, we either took hand notes or created a work document. This has made our jobs much more efficient, productive, has improved communication and documentation, and the ability to receive data from cases.

PROS

Customer Support Case Management features Mobile Access Inter office communication

CONS

Entering offenses Pages are usually not printer friendly when printed (Ex: program placement)
