## CampWise Reviews
  ### 1. TERRIFIC support and customer service!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cheri S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2020

**What do you like best about CampWise?**

After unexpectedly finding myself in a position to need to take over for our office manager, I was terribly anxious about all the things I didn't know and hadn't previously had to worry about in our camp office. What I have found in the past six months is that CampWise is EXCELLENT about responding promptly to inquiries! I have lost count of the support calls and emails that the CampWise team has had with me as I was attempting to navigate so many different functions for the first time. They equipped me with knowledge that I was then able to share with our team so that we didn't have only one person in our office acquainted with the most-used components of the software. I am so grateful to each CW team member who has spent time on the phone, in particular after we decided to cancel summer camp. I can't say enough about their pleasant and swift responsiveness - A++!!

**What do you dislike about CampWise?**

Once I get better acquainted with all aspects of the software, I'll be interested in exploring the user-friendliness of the 'parent' side of registration with the CW team. Wasn't always a fan as a parent before I became employed by the camp, and now that I am employed by the camp I hear this feedback from our external users from time to time.

**Recommendations to others considering CampWise:**

Interact with their support team - you'll find them to be friendly and so helpful!

**What problems is CampWise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Building camp sessions, camp registration, donor management, mailing lists, reports, payment terminal, etc.

  ### 2. Best management software I could find

**What problems is CampWise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our systems run better. We saved money with staffing and cost of the product. Our customers are better served.

  ### 3. Large range of uses

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** hannah D. | Registar, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2018

**What do you like best about CampWise?**

Campwise is a wide-range tool that can be used in many different ways for many different uses. That can be good or bad. What I like best is the "Phonebook" feel of it, being able to add people to the system and also add relationships between people an organizations.

**What do you dislike about CampWise?**

Finding support can be cumbersome. You have to sign on to the help section, find the article you're looking for and dig for the answer. I wish they had a live chat option at least during business hours.

**Recommendations to others considering CampWise:**

Take a look at the system, it is powerful, but it could be too tailored for your specific needs.

**What problems is CampWise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Campwise to collect data on organizations, people, businesses and churches. It's fairly neatly stored as well. This is a powerful system.

  ### 4. Campwise

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lauri S. | Executive Director, Non-Profit Organization Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2016

**What do you like best about CampWise?**

The best thing about Campwise is that you can keep all of your donor, summer camp, and conference center information all in one place with the ability to cross-reference.

**What do you dislike about CampWise?**

There have been updates over the past couple of year, and while I am excited about the new features, it is taking a long time to roll them all out. We also have not found a good way to register families for our family camp program and keep a proper count. I'd also like to see any easier way to migrate people who end up being entered more than once.

**What problems is CampWise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Communication with donors and conference guests is easier with Campwise.

  ### 5. Great software for a camp organization  

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 07, 2016

**What do you like best about CampWise?**

Campwise has a lot of different features to help any organization. When you purchase this, you are able to get as much training as possible so you and anyone using it, can gain a full experience of the software. You are able to get free upgrades, as long as you are a member. You have the opportunity to pay a one time fee, so you wont have up charge any "camper". 

**What do you dislike about CampWise?**

I did not find anything i disliked in this software. 

**What problems is CampWise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Has automated housing chart, will schedule activities, and has real time credit processing.
