narnia Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 We went to a presentation yesterday about the Superfox record-keeping system. Our county has bought it and every setting will be given it to use, free of charge. It looked very simple and easy to use. I think it's going to be very useful for us, but wondered if anyone else is using it and if so, what do you think of it? Any extra-special good points? any glitches/pitfalls?we get our disc next week, as there was a fault on the batch the presenter brought with him ( Nice chap, looked like Philip Schofield........................I kep expecting to be asked to challenge the cube!) and then we get a newer, updated version in March, with regular updates, for ever. Anything that makes life easier for us has to be a bonus! Quote
HappyMaz Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 Have you done a forum search, narnia? I'm sure this has been discussed before when people were asking for advice about nursery manaement packaes. Quote
Panders Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 haven't used it yet Narnia, went on training on Wednesday, must say I was quite impressed and it has been developed by people in the business of childcare and any updates are through suggestions from people in the childcare business. Will be playing about with it over the next week or two to get used to it and probably "go live" at Easter. Quote
Guest Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 Hi, me and my admin ass went on training last june and had the system up and running for this sep. I love it and my aa reckons it saves hours and hours of time. It has taken a bit of getting used to, just like anything else, but as she uses it every day she is now a pro and gets a good few calls from colleagues of mine when they have problems! I'd say run superfox and your old system side by side for a month or two until your confident but deffinately go for it! I've had to adjust a few things from my side of the desk to fit in with what it does but has been well worth it x Good Luck! Quote
Pimms o'clock? Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 Defo a Superfox fan, best thing to do is make sure you allow plenty of time to set it up with details of your setting, staff and families. ...and do it in the order Keith tells you too! otherwise things don't link in. Good luck, won't be long before the whole country is "Superfoxing" BMG Quote
