We use Tuition Express to process our weekly income and love it!

PROS

Tuition Express saves time and man hours. It is flawless in helping us acquire payment from each of our families. The creators and software managers at T.E. really know the world of Learning Centers and have created and maintain an effective tool for helping us charge for enrollment, registration, weekly tuition and other miscellaneous charges in a manner that is time effective and thorough. The customer service is top notch!

CONS

The turnover time involved in notifying us of a decline could be more immediate. We are not notified until two days after posting.

Vendor Response

Lori - We're glad to hear that Tuition Express saves you so much time and that working with our customer service has been such a positive experience for you. As to notifications on declined payments, it depends on the type of payment and the bank. With credit cards, you are notified immediately for Point of Sale transactions and same day for failed batch payments; however, for ACH transactions some banks report more quickly than others. You are notified about declines as soon as we receive a confirmation from the parent¿s bank. Also, sometimes the notifications are sent to the owner of the center, rather than the person who is responsible for making sure everything is reconciled--that¿s something we can easily remedy.

Customer Service is horrible.

Tuition Express was okay for what is worth. The customer service is horrible. When asked the agent his last name, I was told I don’t need it. Then I asked for a supervisor, and was told no, and hung up on me. The agent name was [SENSITIVE CONTENT]. I will never do business with Tuition Express again, and I advise others to find different software company’s.

PROS

The software is simple, but took months to be trained on. I’ve been paying for this software since March 2022, just able to use Nov 2022

CONS

The training time to receive a call to train on how to use software.

Great Software, very difficult to get customer support

Over all, I will continue to use Tuition Express.

PROS

Tuition Express provides seamless interaction between Procare and billing. The system is easy for my staff and our parents to use. As a business owner, it is great to be able to access the software remotely via the cloud. In addition, the reports are easy to pull and easy to understand.

CONS

I don't have a con about the software. However, it is nearly impossible to get customer support. There are always long wait times on the phone and when you opt to leave a message for an agent to call you back it is typically and hour or more before someone returns your call.

Vendor Response

Jennifer - We're glad to hear how easy Tuition Express is for your staff and parents to use. We're sorry you've found it challenging to reach support. Hold times do vary and it can often be easier to get through early in the morning or later in the afternoon. Tuition Express Support is available from 6:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Pacific. If your question is Procare-related you also have the option of calling our main Tech Support number or submitting a question online. Hope that helps.

Valuable tool for payment processing

It isn't the cheapest but it makes up for the cost in the time you save by not having to manually input payments to the ProCare accounts. You can only book out charges two weeks in advance which is good and bad. I have no plans on ever switching as we are huge fans of ProCare and Tuition Express is a valuable feature that supports that program.

PROS

This software keeps us organized with payments and integrates with ProCare software so payments get posted directly into the parent accounts. If you have the ProCare software then Tuition Express is a must. It is a huge time saver.

CONS

It isn't easy to refund families if an overcharge occurs. We find it easer to just write them a check or post a credit to their account. This hasn't been too problematic but is a feature I would like addressed some day.

Reason for choosing Tuition Express

It is a huge time saver and helps us have reliable payment income.

Reasons for switching to Tuition Express

The integration feature and ease of use.

Fast, Professional, Easy-to-Understand

Wonderful experience with my customer service representative- or should I say expert. My questions were addressed with ease and I was even given tips and advice to make my navigation with the software even easier than it was before.

PROS

I love that Tuition Express is overall self-explanatory and easy to get used to. It’s a plus that their customer service is excellent and makes me feel confident that any issues or questions our center comes upon will be solved almost immediately.

CONS

If I had to choose anything to not love about the software is the small hiccups our center comes across when we need to update the system. Sometimes the “Update” button pops up even after we have updated already. It’s a simple click to get it to go away and thankfully it does not interrupt the program or any tasks we have to complete.

Vendor Response

Jessie - We're glad you've had such a wonderful experience both in using Tuition Express and with the team that supports it and offers advice. The issue with the "Update" button coming up on screen was a very short-term event and has been resolved. Thanks for letting us know.

Grear ROI

Overall, my experience with Tuition Express has been positive. The customer service has been excellent as well as the product and results.

PROS

Tuition Express is easy to use and provides a great ROI! It helped our early care and education centers ensure that tuition was billed on time, the correct tuition amount was billed, that tuition was collected on time, and that proper late fees and discounts were assessed. This made budgeting and auditing so much easier. Parents appreciated the convenience of being able to make tuition payments with a credit card and being able to pay remotely.

CONS

What I like least about Tuition Express is the credit card processing/service fees that we are charged because Tuition Express is proprietary; it is expensive! We are a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) and our board of directors and auditors closely watch how much money is spent on processing tuition payments. As a non-profit, our funds are limited and are service directed.

Easy to Use

We are still learning about Tuition Express with Credit Card Options and am sure are not using it to the fullest extent. So far it has been pretty easy to use and parents are overall satisfied. There do seem to be some kinks here and there, like one credit card kept getting billed months later even after the child had been changed to withdrawn and had no activities in the billing box. If those can get worked out, it would be wonderful!

PROS

Tuition Express is easy to use. It has been time saving in collecting payments.

CONS

We did not realize that our center would be charged 3-3.5% in Merchant Fees when average is about 2%. If Tuition Express had a way of estimating that better during the sales process, we would have better accounted for the cost increase.

Vendor Response

Veronica - We're glad you've found Tuition Express easy to use and a time-saver. As to rates, they vary based on the type of transaction (batch processing versus point-of-sale) and the types of cards people use. We'll have one of our consultants get in touch with you to consider the best strategies for your situation. And, regarding withdrawn children, as long as the family still owes you money batch payments will continue to be made; however, you may disable processing for that account if appropriate. You may also opt to allow the parent to pay on their own through MyProcare (the parent portal).

Tuition Express is very user friendly. My son's daycare uses tuition express as the platform to pay tuition weekly. As a user I have had to enter my banking information for auto debit as well as obtain payment records for Flex Spending reimbursement. Each of these tasks took no time at all to complete.

Overall great product

Generally a great tool. Wonderful for keeping track of students and staff.

PROS

It's relatively user friendly. The fingerprint log-in is great.

CONS

It has so many functions that it can get confusing or difficult to find things because they aren't in the user manual.

Vendor Response

Amy - We're glad you're so happy with the fingerprint check-in option for parents and staff. As to the many functions available in Procare, we do strive to make it fully featured while also keeping it easy to use. It's true the printed manual does not cover every possible topic (it's meant to help you get started), but you'll find every feature meticulously covered (often with a short video clip) at ProcareSupport.com. Just click the question mark on any Procare screen to go to the appropriate online article.

It has shortened my workday, reduced the amount of accts. receivable every week, eased payments for our parents. Love that the parents know the exact amount of their weekly fees at payment screen. Has almost eliminated those pesky "left over" fees (extra meals, field trips, etc.) that parent's can forget.

PROS

It is very user friendly. For parents and staff that are not computer comfortable, it is very non-threatening.

We have use Tuition Express monthly for processing payments for many years.

Ease in processing timely payments which provides financial stability.

PROS

As a Director of a multi-site Preschool and Childcare facility, Tuition Express allows a since of ease and security when processing multiple payments. I am able to process bulk payments at once or process one at a time set at preferred dates. I really appreciate the fact that parents can elect to participate in Tuition Express on a monthly basis, changing payment methods at any time without being penalized. This also helps to ensure timely tuition payments so that we can continuously meet our monthly expenses without the worry of not receiving enough revenue to sustain. Although we do not use the Credit Card processing regularly, we have used it on occasion in emergency situations. This also provides yet another flexible payment option that gives parents peace of mind.

CONS

The monthly cost, however with every service, there is a fee. So it is understandable and we are happy to pay the fees for the convenience this service provides.
