We have been able to efficiently complete required paperwork that used to take hours\! > > **Cons**: I am eager to see the progression of the reports and accounting end. Playground reps are so open minded and willing to listen to what improvements we recommend. > > LOVE their customer service\!\! They are always there to listen and guide to ensure we're doing everything the best we can. ----- ### "Overhyped but Underachieved" — 2.0/5 > **Jermaine** | *17 December 2024* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the idea of it being an all inclusive platform for the childcare industry. > > **Cons**: The intuitiveness of the platform is subpar compared to Procare. The interface is lacking in esthetics and its just not a very comprehensive system to use. Expense feature is able to deliver on syncing my bank transactions. > > So far it has been marginal at best, but it has a lot of features that are good ideas but not well thought out or executed. Playground is on the right track but needs to partner with high quality early learning centers that really use technology to operate their programs and would be able to give more insight on how they could potentially improve the platform. Children of Joy would love to do it because I see the potential in Playground and that's why I made the switch from a 30+ year established system and brand like Procare to a brand new company, relative to Procare, like Playground. I believe over time Playground will make the necessary adjustments that will put them in the lead as the number 1 recommended CCMS platform. ----- ### "Peace of mind in one place" — 5.0/5 > **Britney** | *21 February 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that the platform can manage my business tracking and childcare needs in one place. Their customer service is quick and helpful. I couldn't recommend Playground more\! > > **Cons**: So far no issues after a year of being with them. They have solved and worked me through any issues or limitations I've had ----- ### "Extremely happy with my switch to Playground\!" — 5.0/5 > **Vanessa** | *19 February 2026* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I love the most about Playground is the enrollment component. It is a wonderful tool for a new and growing childcare center\! > > **Cons**: I do not like the activity listing part of the platform, however, I am sure there are tons of improvements underway to make the system so much better. > > My overall experience has been extremely wonderful\! Everyone had been super helpful. They literally took me by the hand and assisted me with everything\! ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ae/software/2053512/playground?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ae/software/2053512/playground) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
