A small nonprofit team.
A bigger program offering.

Susan’s team was managing camp and class registrations in Excel. With Cogran, registration and payment collection became part of one workflow, supported by personal, one-to-one training.

Her review describes greater efficiency and accuracy—and the capacity to add more camps and classes. For a lean team, that meant more room to serve its community.
