Everything is easy to use and once we got our heads around how the system worked, by trial and error we really do enjoy using the system.
Everything is on one site. Everything is very easy to understand and use. I like the overview page where I can see everything and I don't have to keep logging into seperate children, so I can get all of the information I need in one easy way. We have 11 rooms to monitor at our Nursery, so to get the information in one screen is perfect for us. We find sending messages to parents and staff very easy now, it is like a facebook page, but just for our parents and staff.
We would like to not send out all accident forms and meals straight away, we would like to only publish later on in the day, this is because parents disturb your busy day by ringing, everytime they get a message if they are a concerned parent. We would have preferred a trainer to help set us up, rather than the face to face online training we got.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! It's great to hear how easy it now is to monitor all 11 rooms, and that our communication tools are helping you strengthen bonds with parents and staff. Thank you for your feedback too - please do feel free to reach out with specific feature queries or suggestions to our customer team at support@famly.co. Your thoughts and questions are always welcome! And thanks for being part of the Famly community :) Warm regards, Bronagh from Famly

Very positive, they are quick to get in contact when requested, constantly receiving updates about new features and improvements and it has really streamlined our service, keeping everything we need in one place. Still don't think we have used it to its full potential as there is so much it can do.
Really easy to implement Famly into our business, allows quick and easy communication and information sharing for service users and staff.
Nothing really, they have a function where you can suggest new features that would be beneficial to your setting and see what is currently being developed which is great. Already we have had two suggestions developed and now in place within the system.
We're thrilled to hear how pleased you are with choosing Famly! It's fantastic that the implementation has been smooth and that our communication tools are making a positive impact. We're glad you find our feature suggestion system helpful, we pride ourselves on making it easy for our customers to add their input and see their ideas implemented. If you ever need assistance in exploring even more of Famly's potential, we're here to help. Thanks for being a part of our community. Best, Pernille from Famly

The team have been overwhelmingly supportive, helpful, solutions driven. They have also asked us for our input on possible changes, and how these would be implemented. As a whole team we are really pleased with Famly. As the leader I'm delighted - it does so much that we need, and it keeps getting better.
Famly was super easy to set up, and has been easy to adapt and change as we've gone along. The onboarding team were very helpful. As we've used it the main things I really value include - the invoices being simple, accurate, and easy to do; tracking children's progress is easy and has customisations that make it work for us; and the team find it easy to use - they have a variety of skills and competences as any team do but even the most techniphobic can sign in and out.
If I had to choose a niggle then - we run our nursery day quite differently, and I can't use the overview of bookings to see where we have spaces I can sell.
Thank you so much Hannah for the wonderful review. The team were so happy to hear what a difference Famly has made for you and your nursery :) We look forward to getting even better and providing even more value to you and your team in the future - Keri
