    It can't be that bad, is it, if you don't do invoicing or anything else on it, except enter the foods/children?

    Same here

    I finally made the switch a couple days ago.

    I don't use it for invoicing or payment.
    Only for menus, recording meals and submitting claims.

    So far, no issues.

      I don't like it at all. I am coping, but I don't like it. Easy to figure out, but much less offered and less useful to me.
      1. It takes 5X as long to enter meals/attendance.
      2. The printout forms look amateur/cheap/ugly other than the W-10 which I greatly appreciate they left alone.
      3. The sign in sheets are useless with one page per day in micro-print. Has to be stored for 2 yrs, impractical AH.
      4. I am still waiting on auto-pay approval which is the main reason I moved over to begin with; continuity.
      5. There are no curriculum planning, daily sheets, certificates or charts.


      We are paying more for less. Probably not for long, though.

        I think I am going to switch to submitting paper menus. KidKare is glitching somehow and deleting in/out times for me. I can add them over and over, and they still disappear. It takes me hours longer each month to enter my meals, and I have had 5 open tickets with KidKare for 2 months with no response. I thought MM was primitive and could use some upgrades, but KK is not a step up, IMO.

          No matter how many times I save my hours of operations in my business detail, it will not record.

          I have filled in all 5 days, 10 lines of time data per day, hit save each and every time. Still nothing but wasted time.

          This means I can't print out my Time/Space form based on hours of operation.

            I have noticed the same thing.... it takes more time to enter things and I can't "customize" the list of kids in the manner I want to list them.

            I am muddling along like everyone else but I do.not.like. this new program. Grrr!

              Sorry, 2 lines of data (open/close), per day, for a total of 10 lines.

                    I'm still using MMK. And won't be switching over till they force me! I was told that since I'm not on any food program, and only use MMK for the money and attendance parts of it, that it will still be around for another year or so. So until they literally take it from me, it is where I will stay

                      Where is that info?? I got a message in my MMKPro saying the same thing last year. Mine still says it is gone Mid-Oct.

                      Non-compete clause, I think.

                      All my attendance and menus from yesterday are gone. Again. So frustrated

                        I haven't been having that problem at all. I'd ask them to switch your account to a different server.

                          Ugh-so sick of that! And, no response from my ticket opened on 9/5/17 about that same issue! Has anyone heard back from KK about these things disappearing?

                            After not even being able to log-in on Monday, I was already discouraged and felt completely stupid. So I sent an email off to my sponsor and she got me in within half an hour. I didn't go back til just now to do anything but was able to enter everything in okay. It's going to take a bit before it looks normal to me because some things are different.
                            Now if things start disappearing on me.....
