It's good for monitoring and communication, but is very clunky when it comes to billing. It's nice that all messages for a student come up in the same conversation, but it would be nice if I could send message to only Administration or only room staff and also receive notification that my message has been read.

Workday
When staff were trained to use Workday Payroll and Workforce Management, we underwent thorough training sessions and received printed materials to follow along with on our desktops. The procedures were straightforward, making it easy to navigate the site, especially for supervisors. However, when the system was introduced for college students, it didn’t run as smoothly. Since students were primarily focused on their coursework, they occasionally needed assistance with using Workday Payroll and Workforce Management or had to be directed to the appropriate resource for support.

Workday Payroll and Workforce Management hasn't given me any issues. I love that you can customize your profile with icons, the color scheme, and etc. It makes it feel more personable. In addition, you can customize which icons that you use frequently to complete tasks. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a platform that has high usability and versatility.

We have used Sandbox, which was bought out by Procare and will become obsolete. The program had many good features, but in most ways we find that Procare has surpassed Sandbox. The interface as a staff person is very user-friendly, messages are more easily sent to parents, and parents have found this simple to navigate as well
