FaithfulScouter Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 If you could start over, which Troop management software would you pick? Our Troop has never had a website and in developing a new one we would like to incorporate other functionality into it as well. We currently have an email group platform for communication, polls, document storage, and photo storage. The Troop currently uses TroopMaster for advancement tracking, but not to its fullest potential. We are considering the following: Trooptrack, TroopWebHost, Scoutmanager, Troopkit, SOAR, ScoutTrack. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred8033 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Divide what you are trying to do into categories to see if you have coverage. You could even look at the features of the above tools to create categories. Here are some common categories Communication ... Email, Texting, Calendar management ... Printable, subscribe-able, etc Document storage .. Forms, Pictures, Other Social media Advancement ... purchase orders, awards, rank Membership Finances ... Budget, dues, accounting This is what we use Scoutbook ... Default for all units ... Advancement, roster ... it's the official BSA data. Anything else is double work. Facebook ... Default for all units ... social media SOAR ... communication, email, document management Google documents / spreadsheets ... finances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
