CHARMS™ Customer Testimonial: Fostering UK
News ID: 552
‘The CHARMS database is a fantastic tool for all fostering agencies. We have had the system installed from day one, which sets the foundations with regards to data protection, compliance, security and usability of all of the information that one uses when running a fostering agency. From a managers perspective, I cannot fault the system and I can honestly say having CHARMS in place has significantly contributed to our company gaining a ‘good’ rating from Ofsted in our first inspection. The support provide by CHARMS support team is second to none and nothing is too much trouble, for my staff and my foster carers. I would highly recommend for any fostering agency to use CHARMS as the main part of their recording and data protection structures and for new fostering agencies, using CHARMS from day one as we have, will help you get the Ofsted rating you require’

CHARMS™ Pay - Customer Testimonial: BSN Social Care
News ID: 547
"Having used Charms Online and Charms Pay together for around 8 years now I can honestly say the products work really well together and everything comes through from Charms Online into Charms Pay to allow the finance staff to process the payments and invoicing efficiently.
Having the systems in place together makes our jobs a lot easier and saves time for processing both payments and invoicing, it makes everything more efficient and the reports make everything easier to see/check for any errors that may have been entered onto the system. The integration with accounts packages is also very good, I have worked with 2 different interfaces and the integration has worked well with both.
I will also add the support that is given by SCN is second to none and they are always on hand to help with any issues that may arise or any data requests required."
