Excellent and friendly system for everyone!

Easy to use even for beginners! Contains all necessary information No training needed

Everything looks perfect for me! No cons!

I highly recommend Our School Hangout. It has made my life as an administrator so much easier. Our team has embraced the use of the app 100% - even my senior teachers use it and love it. The parents like it.

[sensitive content hidden] provides the best customer service I have ever experienced. She is always available and open to suggestions. She assisted me through the entire transition to this platform and was so patient and listened without interruptions. This was been the best experience. I love that I can message or call parents from the app. We had a tornado and had to go to our shelter. I was able to call the parent so she knew we were safe and for her to get to a safe place. That ability to communicate with parents is a fabulous feature for me.

I really cannot think of anything negative to say about Our School Hangout. It is a different mind set than our previous program. Once I let that go, it has been wonderful. This program works very well with Apple products, there have been a few challenges with Android products. Once this was brought up however, it was addressed immediately and fixes were made.

It’s been great.

We have shopped around for many different programs and none could deliver on the flexibility, versatility and responsiveness of OSH.

I want more powerful reporting at my fingertips. They’re always ready to pull any report I need, but more extensive reporting options are (hopefully) coming.

First, I will say that customer service is top-notch and by the far the best I have encountered. Whether it's user error on our part or a process in the software, [sensitive content hidden] and her team are very quick to respond and to resolve the issue. Implementation was easy. [sensitive content hidden] met with us to understand our needs, helped us set up the program, and trained our staff in the way we could use the software program. Things flowed seamlessly once we implemented the software on the back end. Parents are happy to have an app to get updates about class happenings and to pay electronically. We highly recommend this software!

We implemented Our School Hangout at the start of this school year, and it has been a game-changer! Parents are able to easily access the site to see class updates and pay fees online.

There were a few glitches as we rolled out the product, but [sensitive content hidden] and her team were quick to fully resolve the issues. So, we have no complaints!

I have been very happy with Our School Hangout. It has saved me so much time because everything is automated. It has everything the parents need in one place, and it is easy to use. I would recommend Our School Hangout to any church preschool, small school, or daycare!

The software is easy to use and has everything I was looking for. Parents can pay their tuition, view preschool updates and resources. There is a directory so the parents can look up other families at the preschool and connect. Recently, we started using the teacher check in/out system and works great!

I always let the developer know if there are improvements they can make, and she tries her best to make those improvements.

The personal attention to detail of our school's needs has been so appreciated. Most school administrators don't have time to be website geniuses! Since the website is so user friendly, we can make changes and additions to what we offer at our preschool and our community is easily informed.

In the past, we shunned the purchase of school management software because of the price. The features of products were far more than we needed for our small half-day preschool. When the developer contacted us, we shared this hesitancy to invest. The completely customizable features of the website made it so user friendly, we were immediately interested. Once the price of the use of the website was shown to be in relation to the size of the school, we were sold!

We haven't really worked out if there are cons to this website. Being one of the first users of this product, there were some questions that needed a quick answer. The developer was very quick to solve the issue or to give a date of when the issue would be resolved. Our School Hangout has ongoing improvements and updates that we haven't even started to use.

Learning a new software program in the middle of a school year was a bit of a challenge, but [SENSITIVE CONTENT] was there every step of the way to help us. She is hands on and wants to be sure OSH is helping us. If we have an issue, we can reach out to her and she responds promptly!

The ease of use. It is extremely easy for parents to set up an account and register their child for our programs. When I need to send out communications, I can send out an email blast to all parents within minutes, no looking up email addresses! Billing and payments are well organized and reports are easy to generate.

There really isn't anything. If we run into issues, they are resolved quickly.

The product works exceptionally well and provides solutions for so many challenges that go along with administrating a school, such as registration, billing, and scheduling. [sensitive content hidden] and her team also have amazing and responsive customer service and are always willing to help or even develop solutions to problems you may have.

Sometimes, the system could be clunky when I tried to use it as a solution for things outside of the recommended use case. That being said, OSH was always helpful in trying to come up with solutions and workarounds.

They are extremely responsive and quick to help out. The system allows us to incorporate many important areas of school operations into one program including parent/ teacher communication.

I have not experience a negative experiences yet.

Useful product backed by excellent support.

I used the Our School Hangout app at my child's co-op. The app made reviewing class choices, registering and paying so easy and all in one spot. The few times I did have questions, the customer support was quick, friendly and professional. You can tell the [sensitive content hidden]takes great pride in her product and is committed to customer service.

I don't really have any cons to report about this product.

One of the things I like most about my experience with OSH was the customer support that I am given on a consistent basis. Whenever I have any issue at all, or just need help learning something new, I get answers and guidance right away.

Our School Hangout offers our company a portal for parents to view a calendar of classes, receive emails, notifications, blog postings, and other information that keeps them "in the know" regarding the various offerings we have for their registered students. They receive notifications from us for snow closures or delays based on their transportation group and attendance days. They can sign up for classes or camps, and pay for the class fee all on one convenient portal. For us, the reporting and payment management features were key. Being able to communicate with families based on their attendance days and transportation groups was key for us, as well as processing payments and connecting the accounting to our bank. OSH has been a game-changer.

I would like to have a "help" function where I could search a database for helpful instructions, "how-to's", and other tutorial type information. Also, I'm really looking forward to the new app!

Our School Hangout has saved me so much time as both a mom of a preschooler and as a director of a Parents' Morning Out program. As a director, it makes it simple to create classes, set up payments, and then just sit back as Our School Hangout takes it from there. Previously, I was sending parent payment emails and following up multiple times throughout the month with multiple families to collect each month's tuition. That task is now taken off my to-do list. Is there anything better than being given extra time in your day? As a parent, I don't even think twice about paying preschool tuition each month. Our School Hangout offers auto pay and again takes one more thing off my to-do list. Our School Hangout is efficient, user friendly, and an incredible time saver. The customer support Sarai offers whenever a question comes up is incredibly fast, professional, and helpful. Our School Hangout is an administrative and parental game changer.

Both as a parent and as an administrator, Our School Hangout makes both of my jobs easy. As a parent, Our School Hangout eliminated the need to get out my checkbook and write (literally) my only check each month. Our School Hangout offers auto pay for parents to pay the monthly tuition and sends an email that it's been paid. It could not be easier for parents! As a Parents' Morning Out administrator, Our School Hangout provides a convenient method that I can offer parents to register their child and then pay for our program from their phone. This is a must! Our School Hangout also does the administrative dirty work of sending tuition payment reminders and late fee notices to parents, which allows me to have a much more positive relationship with the parents. Our School Hangout is a game changer as a parent and as an administrator.

There's nothing that I don't like about Our School Hangout. If I have a question about anything at all, Sarai is so quick to respond and answer my question.

[sensitive content hidden] and the customer service is excellent. She is always welcoming feedback and willing to fix or upgrade any issues or try her best to create whatever it is that we need.

It's still in the younger stage as a program, so there can be bugs or things to be added/edited/adjusted, etc. but [sensitive content hidden] is always making changes and keeping us in the loop to make sure we are happy with the product and its functionality.

From implementation to customer service, Our School Hangout has been a game changer for our preschool. The people at Our School Hangout are very responsive and ready to help whenever you need it.

This product makes monthly tuition payments, summer camp payments, and all other fees extremely easy to administer and keep track of. This product allows parents to register their own children, but gives us the capability to make changes and customize the registration to what we need.

At first there was not a App for this product, but it is being rolled out this summer so it will make it easier to use for parents and teachers.

I love that we have everything in one place now…attendance, info, communication and registration info. It’s a great way to share what’s going on in our classroom with our families including photos and videos. It’s wonderful to have everything in one place. I also love how responsive the company has been to new ideas and suggestions for making the product even better.

I wish there was a section to be able to create signups for things like parties or mystery reader.

Hands down one of the best small business owners I know! Great product! Highly recommend!

First off the product creator is super helpful and provides her time and resources to learn how to navigate the software- helping you identify how it can be most useful to your specific program. It is easy to use and easy for the parents as well.

Would like to see an app for the software.

We use this app as a one stop shop for our school. Payment, class happenings and attendance. It has made life a bit easier in the hectic chaos of the school day.

It is very user friendly! The customer support is fantastic.

Anytime I think of something that could be better, I reach out to the developer and she makes it happen!

I use the accounting and reporting in Our School Hangout at least weekly if not daily and they are exactly what I need. That's because their customer service is top tier, and their training is great. Any report that doesn't exist or that I need changed takes one phone call to start customization.

Some app functionality is still being improved but the team is working hard to address all concerns and roll updates accordingly.

My experience with Our School Hangout has been amazing. I could not ask for a better program or management to work with us during this transition.

I loved the support of the wonderful lady behind this program, [sensitive content hidden]. She helped support me in changing from hard copy of everything and turning it into digital. She has been very responsive to my continuous questions and concerns. I sat through numerous demos, and some who would not even talk with me until I sat through a demo. Our School Hangout tailor-made for preschools like ours.

I can not say anything negative about Our School Hangout!

Our School Hangout was a game changer when communicating with our parents and being able to send mass emails all at once. As our program got bigger a system like this became necessary. We have loved this software and the ease of use.

For the needs of our program, this software hits all the marks!

As a preschool teacher, I love how easy it is to upload photos, videos, and information I need the parents to be aware of. My parents LOVE the daily pictures and getting a look at their children's day at school.

I was having issues with my pictures being sideways but the customer service is amazing and the issue has been fixed.

Our overall experience with Our School Hangout has been wonderful!

We appreciate the ease of use and the number of helpful options included in the app. Class lists, Lesson plans, Photos, Important reminders, Private messages, Signs ups, Calendars, etc. There are so many different options and they are all easily accessible and easy to operate. It has made our classroom management so much easier.

I haven’t found any cons yet. I had a few issues upon setting up the app, but that turned out to be user error. I sent a message for help one evening and was surprised to have the solution emailed back to me literally within minutes. Absolutely zero concerns or complaints!

Very Positive

I love the ease of use and how responsive the IT team is to always be trying to improve and add new features.

There have been some glitches but they are always fixed correctly.

From an accounting standpoint, I was a bit skeptical at first when the [sensitive content hidden] of our Preschool approached me about Our School Hangout since we already had a premier church software package but I agreed to view the product since I knew our existing software although adequate for accounting needs, did not have all of the capabilities and bells and whistles the Preschool needed like interacting with the parents, being able to post newsletters, storing records and documents, etc. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Our School Hangout not only had everything the Preschool was looking for it also had all the accounting reports that I would need along with the capability to interface with our ledger. In fact, I have access to more reports now than I did before which makes it easier to reconcile payments every month. The owner/developer has also always been good to check in and to make sure I am satisfied and getting everything I need to do my job. All in all, I am very happy with the product and I know the Preschool is as well. No regrets in switching over.

Do not have any issues or complaints at this time.

Wonderful!

I love how easy to use. It is easy to navigate even if you have never been on there before.

I honestly don't believe there is anything that I do not like about it.
