About CampBrain
Campbrain is a cloud-based software that helps schools, conferences, agencies, and religious organizations, manage camp registrations and accommodation booking on a centralized platform. The platform provides reservations and accommodations calendar, allowing administrators to update monthly, weekly, or daily resource allocation based on registration numbers.
Campbrain enables team members to receive real-time booking status updates, such as on hold, awaiting confirmation, awaiting deposit, unsure about dates, and cancelled. The meal planning functionality lets camp coordinators automatically populate meal schedules, customize meal menus, and add participant specific dietary needs, one-off requests, or allergies. The financial management module allows supervisors to configure fixed or variable charges, taxes, accounting categories, and price lists.
Campbrain facilitates integration with third-party calendar tools, including iCal, MS Outlook, and Google Calendar. The built-in fundraising tool lets staff members create mailing lists, build and post landing pages for campaigns, and send receipts and acknowledgments. It also lets supervisors define usage and assign resources, such as climbing walls, ropes, meeting rooms, and projectors.

Overall, CampBrain is a great system and has a great team backing it. We would have stayed with it had the pricing been better.
Pros
Great look and user interface. Simple to use and understand with tweaks available to make some tasks easier. Customer service is phenomenal and they really work with you to accomplish your goals.
Cons
It was a bit pricey for what you get compared to other software. No (current) automation for reports or other tasks, everything seems to be built around look/functionality instead of user experience. No online integration for website on the conference side. Not able to separate package pricing into accounting codes with any ease.

CampBrain makes registering campers, and tracking all their information very simple and easy. It allows us to separate our variety of programs into different groupings so we can make things easier for both ourselves and clients. The inclusion of the health centre helps keep information together even once the child is at camp and keeps it recorded long term. Additionally the auto-emailer is an incredibly useful component that saves significant time for us.
Pros
CampBrain is the best registration software I have ever used. It is so intuitive for both the front and back end users that using it is quick and simple. The program is able to balance structure (to keep things simple and easy to repeat) with flexibility (so the program can perfectly suit your programs). Key features like cloning your seasons from year to year, excellent reporting features, and full integration of every thing you need to track in a registration program are just some of the reasons CampBrain is so wonderful. Additionally, the Conference Centre Module is the best rental system I have used. Lastly, the customer service/tech support from CampBrain is absolutely the best I have ever received. Accessible by email or phone the response time is always excellent, they are always super helpful and I have never left a phone call or email without some form of a solution to my issue, even temporary ones to tide me over until a larger fix can be completed (i.e. they got me the data I needed while they created a specific report etc).
Cons
The only feature CampBrain does not have that I would like is that they do not have an option for an agency to register multiple children on behalf of the parents. We would love to have the option for an agency to have a master account through which they register many children from multiple families so we can still collect full family information while making it very clear which agency/location the child is a part of. CampBrain has found multiple work arounds for us but does not actually have a "master account" feature.

We have found customer service to be top notch. They have been prompt with the setup and changes to our forms and reports through the years so long as you keep in mind there work load recommendations for scheduling. They do a great job.
Pros
Was fairly simple to transfer our existing data into the new format so as to not have to do a complete new program setup. The forms and program also has a rational flow for our users and families.
Cons
Our initial decision was based upon being able to get our retreats, summer camp and donor tracking into one database. Retreats and summer camp has been accomplished, but when the donor tracking came out our definitions for its functionality were different and we could not make that change. It will let you enter donors but not to the extent that we are accustomed making us drop to many features.

I have had a very positive working relationship with the Camp Brain software and the Camp Brain team.
Pros
The best aspect of Camp Brain is their fantastic support team. No software is perfect and no end-user is all-knowing. The ease of contacting their team with one phone call and getting help is priceless.
Cons
I have worked with Camp Brain software for 6+ years. In that time, there have been features that I needed/wanted that were not present. However, the development team at Camp Brain has worked and filled almost all the gaps I saw and others that I was not aware of. The primary element that I would like to see more development is a specific transportation module. The toll sexist to manage our transportation now, but they could be more straightforward.
