KT has provided a streamlined service for almost everything that we do including invoicing, payment collection, and daily reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Kangarootime? The billing cycles are a little confusing. It is hard to enter in a manual line item without it affecting the automatic withdrawal. Would love to see more report options and also some alignment with state standards, developmental milestones. Would be great to do the lesson plans within KT also...and have the parents be able to see it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Kangarootime solving and how is that benefiting you? Love the automation with billing and late fees. Also love the daily reports that are emailed to parents nightly.

All of the features! They continue to improve, from billing to meal counts. Our families love the updated parent app. They also recently added employee scheduling, menus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Kangarootime? The messaging. In my opinion it’s the base of parent communication and it takes extra steps that are outside of the admin control to make sure parents get their messages because the notifications are sent via push notifications instead of text message. I wish they had text message capability. The push notifications aren’t as efficient for us because we’ve had to try to stop every parent and help them turn their notifications to persistent, we’ve posted flyers and sent home how to’s in every cubby as well as started doing enrollment meetings before students start to tackle setting Kangarootime up correctly etc however I still get families that aren’t getting messages because when they change phones, reset or update their phones it seems like it defaults back to temporary notifications. I’ve been asking about texting since we signed up a few years ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Kangarootime: It’s a true all in one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Kangarootime solving and how is that benefiting you? The ability to truly manage my schools in one place. I eliminated the use of about 4 other systems and programs because KT had it all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
