There may be situational needs or customization requests that can change the timeline but our goal is that you feel comfortable and ready to announce to your clients and begin portal orientation by that time.
Yes.
There are 3 surveys included in the app. And you can choose to add custom forms.
Before inviting a student to their portal, you have the option to turn 'On' assessments. The student will be greeted by the surveys when entering the student portal for the first time.
If you prefer to use surveys later in the intake process, they can be found in the Biographical Banners. The Counselor always maintains control.
If your practice needs further surveys customization services beyond what is included, such as custom-assessments, custom intake forms, or 3rd party assessment tools - these customized software development services are available.
Contact support@counselmore.com to discuss your specific needs. Our custom software development projects are built in direct collaboration with our customers, keeping their budget in focus.
You clients will never come to you for tech support. They have a Help button in theri app to reach us directly.
We have peer-colleagues who have volunteered their stories of how they chose to transition clients in the Knowledge Base library. You can read those. Some choose to announce with a Broadcast Message and onboarding each student during a meetings. Others chose to have students and parents join a webinar for orientation. In your free trial you will find a sample Assignment introducing CounselMore to a Parent-client.

Call us for the pricing for the Multi Counselor manager's platform.
A Multi Counselor account with less than 5 Counselors: Each Counselor account within the Multi Counselor account is a Professional plan reduced from $176 to only $45 per month per counselor.
Company's with more than 5 counselor seats have a reduced rate per counselor, after the 5th seat.
Multi Counselor collectives with multiple independent contractors practicing under one umbrella are best served by CounselMore's pricing because their account is reduced to $45.
Partnership practices with no intention of expanding would be best served by the Single Counselor Professional plan. With that plan, one additional counselor may be added to the account for $45. In the event that you did grow, the upgrade transition is seamless and hardly noticable, accept for lots of new tools to play with.
No.
The Service Account, which is the Admin role determines who is a Superuser.
A Superuser has almost the same access as the Admin.
Everyone else is a Counselor role. A Counselor role cannot see other Counselors or Students not assigned to them.
In each Counselor account the Admin can decide what access each Counselor role has to Accounting.
An Admin could also determine that every Counselor role is a Superuser. Making all Counselor and Student accounts visible to all Counselor roles. This is of particular advantage in a flat hierarchy. The Admin can still set Accounting privledges per Superuser.

We've been down this road several times, we know the hidden curves and blind drives, we can confidently show you the way.
It is because we understand how you are feeling that we set up the transition and implementation program this way.
Two meetings:
1) Questions with a Specialist
2) Homework of what to gather
3) Implementation meeting where we work through it with you.
If explaining your process doesn't feel natural - no worries because you aren't talking to tech people! You are speaking to colleagues who understand the ecosystem of educational services.
We will make this easy by asking you to pretend your Implementation manager is one of your student-cleints and walk us through your process in that way. As you move through your practice, we will work with you to reflect the functionality within the CounselMore account.
Yes! Absolutely - your practice is unique but CounselMore performed 2 years of observational research, sitting at the elbow of our colleagues as they administered services. That was for the purpose of mapping out organically constructed educational service delivery practices. We them built the software around those findings.

That makes our team the best people to help you document your process within CounselMore.
