The staff are always quick to respond and thorough in providing us service. > > **Cons**: My least favorite part of CampWise is switching between all the platforms to access what I need in that moment. ----- ### "Friendly & Knowledgeable Staff" — 4.0/5 > **Janelle** | *21 November 2023* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Campwise Team is very friendly and knowledgeable. They will help you out with most everything that you throw at them. > > **Cons**: The reports and parameters for the report can be very confusing. > > With not having training in Campwise when I started my job, the Campwise Team has made it very easy to understand. They have been more than willing to talk me through situations, showing me how to use modules and just teach me how to use Campwise to make my life and co-workers lives easier. ----- ### "NEEDLESSLY complex" — 1.0/5 > **David** | *4 May 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I can't even say that it saves administrative staff any work, because it seems to create even more for them\! > > **Cons**: EVERYTHING\! Twenty years from now, we may be wondering about this or that camp, why registration declined and they had to close down. The reason will be: they switched to CampWise and people decided it wasn't worth wading through so much UX crap, both front-end and back-end, just to get into the camp's front gate. There may not have been ANY thought put into streamlining how a typical user would work their way through registration. Everything you've ever heard bad about government websites is embodied here - I'm renewing my family's passports right now, and CampWise makes that process seem like a breeze. Be nice to your campers and especially their parents: stay AWAY from CampWise\! > > Increased awareness of horrible products. ----- ### "I've tried many. This is the best\!" — 5.0/5 > **Lori** | *28 May 2020* | Museums & Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to automate the process and ensure that customers and our company receives the information we need when we need it, sets CampWise well above the competition. CampWise allows us to provide the customer service we have always desired to provide, even in the midst of our busy summer season. Our families are notified when its time to make payments, when they need to complete forms, they receive their packing list, medication packaging instruction, drop off instructions all automatically, at the times set by us. They also receive pick up reminders and a thank you note automatically. Even more important are the automatic generation of daily, weekly and monthly reports for our company. One week prior to the start of each session I simply open a folder in my G-Drive and print all my opening day paperwork including our camp rosters, medication administration records, cabin assignments and about 10 other reports. CampWise is HUGE time saver. We also have reports showing us what past families have not enrolled, and even have automatic lead generation from within the registration processes. > > **Cons**: Setting up this system takes time. They provide great customer service and a one-on-one consultant to walk with you through every step of the processes and will even do most of the work for you. But we wanted to do the work in order to really learn the system. To use CampWise to its fullest capacity you should consider each e-mail, each needed report well in advance. Once the system is up and running, CampWise utilizes an email support system. While they usually have an answer to your questions the same day or by the next day, I would prefer being able to pick up the phone and get an answer to my question right away. I guess I am just old school and don't mind waiting in queue for the next tech person. > > GREAT\!\! Our company has tried CampBrain, CampDoc and CampWise, looking for a camp management software that addresses all of our needs. CampWise provides it all and provides it better than the competition. This first year we have seen a 20% increase in camper registrations and I attribute much of that it to CampWise. ----- ### "Made for Camps" — 5.0/5 > **Tina** | *27 May 2020* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's hard to say what I like most because I have several favorites\! I love that it puts everything in one place, all our contacts were imported so I can pull them up and share between both our camp locations, but still have separate calendars and reporting for each camp event. I love the reporting, it is quick and easy to pull reports, or if you need more custom reports you can go in deep and pull any data you need and customize it. I love the set up, we were able to explain our business to the project managers at Campwise and they helped me build exactly what we needed. The outcome could not have been better and it fits our needs to the letter since we built it that way. > > **Cons**: We are used to using a color coding for our events on the calendars and I don't have that, (yet). I have asked and they said they can do that in the future, as they take feedback and are always improving. > > We went from using gmail, google sheets and docs, Quickbooks and Salesforce to this one system. It saves us so much time, money and energy that we wasted by updating several apps manually. Everything is in one place now. Our staff, CEO, accountant, and board members are all on the same page, there are no surprises and we can all contribute and stay informed. The set up is easier than other programs I have set up and Campwise was there every step of the way. We did weekly Zoom meetings to get all the details added so it didn't seem so daunting because we did it in steps and I learned as we went. Campwise staff is the best I have ever encountered, they are very responsive and made me feel like I was their only priority, and part of their family. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/272768/campwise?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/272768/campwise) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
