Technology is the key to accelerating social change. Rather than relying on dated systems like paper-based documentation and spreadsheets, social good organizations require powerful tools that can adapt to their needs and support their growing missions. Case management software is the most viable solution for keeping detailed records and managing workflow for many organizations.
In this guide, we’ll explain the importance of investing in a system that can handle your programs, cases, and projects with ease.
Review these common questions to discover what case management software is and how it can help your organization. With this foundational knowledge, your software search should be a breeze!
Case management software provides your organization with one central location to track and store client data, such as contact and billing information, case notes, appointment scheduling and history, and client communications.
There are three main functions of case management software:
From gathering information to streamlining your workflow, adopting a case management system will help grow your impact.
Case managers often work with dozens of clients and collect hundreds of data points. Keeping track of these interactions and metrics can be difficult without the help of a reliable tool like case management software.
A case management system stores your client information in one place, making it easy to do the following:
With case management software, you’ll spend less time keeping track of your tasks, lists, notes, and deadlines, and more time on building meaningful connections with your customers.
From customer service representatives to doctors’ offices, any organization looking to bring order to an otherwise complicated workflow can benefit from case management software. Law firms, for example, can use these platforms to automatically collect and keep client interactions organized in one central place, allowing for a comprehensive view of each partner’s record.
Human services and nonprofit organizations that still use paper as their primary method for recording client information can also benefit from case management software. Storing physical papers in filing cabinets can be time-consuming. Plus, you run the risk of damaging or even losing valuable files. With the right software, everything you need is available in a searchable database.
Organizations that work with outdated or unsupported systems, which provide them with only basic functionality, may not be able to produce the reports and insights they need. Employing a comprehensive software solution would allow these organizations to improve the accuracy of their data, ensuring that all staff has access to detailed and consistent client information.
The right case management system should meet the unique needs and processes of your organization. Keep these key features in mind when searching for the best solution:
These effective case management tools will help your team improve their workflow and ensure clients receive the best possible service.
With so many case management software options out there, it’s important to find one that meets your agency’s tracking, reporting, and communication needs. While features are important to look at when deciding which system to choose, there are also many other questions to consider, such as:
It may seem difficult to find a case management software provider that checks all of these boxes, but have hope—there is bound to be a solution that can maximize your impact.
Ask yourself if your current process, whether you’re using software or paper tracking, is meeting your needs. If not, it might be time for an upgrade. Change isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it, especially when the payoff is a case management system that improves your day-to-day operations.
