    Diamond Mind is made specifically for independent schools to use for a myriad of payment collecting situations. It is perfectly suited for our small independent school as we are able to easily roll this out for all parents. Because it is used campus-wide for many things, like adding money to a student account, paying for trips, and more, our parents and families are used to using this program to make payments to the school.

    Veracross is software that can be highly recommended to anyone in the education industry. Veracross offers a breadth of services varying from administration to student-parent communication. The unique abilities that Veracross offers such as email reminders, attendance management, billing, and payment processing, and attendance tracking have made my job as an administrative support manager so much easier and more productive here at Teachables.

    • Normally it has everything I need for my work, today I was able to make a video call and chat from my cell phone and this adds more positive points to Veracross.

    We will continue to use Veracross for the simple fact that we have one database across all of the departments in our school. Veracross continues to listen to customer feedback and improve and enhance the system.

    LOVE the Technical Response Team - the first line of help at Veracross. I can quickly submit a ticket and receive a response knowing that they have looked in our system and know what we are trying to do! Our account manager is also amazing! So nice to have a person within the company who knows our school and our needs!

    Veracross has better built-in integrations with other platforms/systems. IT is much simpler and easy to use. It keeps records in a much simpler way and can be accessed through different modes of reporting. It is very easy to keep track of the progress in any training, project, or assignment with Veracross.

    • We can easily collect money without losing checks in office drawers (this has happened).
    • Everyone gets a receipt of payment.
    • Customer support is worth the cost of using the program.

    • Not sure, but our school has been using it for years, so it must be worth it. Veracross is good about updating and adding features.
