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.
PROSI 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.
CONSWould 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.
PROSEase 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.
CONSSome 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.
Reason 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.

Only one video file per story (Terrible)
I don't really like Educa. But our daycare uses it. It's better than nothing.
CONSOnly maximum on one video file per child story. Story editor is terrible when it comes to placement of media (video & picture)
Reasons for switching to Educa
Change of daycare.

Beneficial for Educators and Families
Overall, I am very excited with this EDUCA. I feel this will be very beneficial for our school!
PROSI love how I can capture the special moments of a child through these learning stories. Adding pictures to this is a plus. Parents can have a better understanding of how their child is learning and experiencing at school.
CONSI am still learning how to operate this software using my phone and computer. It will take some time.

A good way to keep track of your kids documentation!
Incredible documentation software that helps parents and teachers keep track of their kids any time, everywhere you go, saving parents and teachers a lot of time and facilitating the communication between them, HIGHLY recommended.
PROSHow easy it is for you to check what your kids have been doing lately in their respective classes, ask the teacher and clear your doubts right away and even see photos of excursions or just class activities, all in the same place, which also is very organized and intuitive.
CONSI really don't think this software has badly implemented features, but sometimes it gets a little bit slow, but really it is not a problem that concerns me or affects the experience with Educa.

Professional, interactive & inspiring
We have been using Educa for a few months now and are thrilled with it! Our educators are inspired everyday to share moments & stories with families so easily. Our families are absolutely loving the program and seeing what their children are doing each day, sometimes live! The connection between educator, child & family ( even extended family ) is brilliant - our family involvement has gone through the roof! Most importantly educators have more time with the children as they are not spending hours & hours writing observations and learning stories. We cannot recommend Educa enough - best decision we ever made.

Great tool for Educators, excellent system for parent to be connected and very easy to use
There are no cons really on my experience as an Educator, Centre Manager and a Parent it has only been positive, it is a much easier, less time consuming tool to document children's learning, all families loved it, especially grandparents that live overseas or in different states, they loved having the opportunity to be close to they grandchildren and be part of their day to day life. And as a parent I loved that I'll have my children stories and memories of their early years of learning for the rest of their life and that one day they may show it to their own children.

easy to use and access required information
An accessible menu, easy to follow time line. I appreciate how simple it is to find the information and updates I am after.
CONSThe 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?

Great product
We have been using EDUCA since the beginning of 2016. I don't have a negative thing to say about the product. EDUCA is easy to use, you get great customer service, great online training options and great reporting functions. My educators love it, because they are getting the most feedback and involvement from families ever and it is easy to use! As I Director one of the many things I love about it is the REPORTING! Knowing that families are reading the learning, tracking my educators learning stories and seeing the families comments are amazing benefits!

It has been great. There were times that the system is down but I received notification so it's ok.
Learn how to use.
PROSIt's great for parents/whanau who will be able to see their children's learning and preschool will be able to send information faster.
CONSSome families do not have computer or smartphones that allows them to view learning stories. Some have limited access on the internet so it can affect some families.
