Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • CounselMore is a modern, customizable college planning software that brings efficiency and organization to my counseling workflow. The College List Builder, Routine Assignments, App Tracker, Broadcast Station and Student Portal make managing students seamless, while integrations like Google Drive and Calendly keep everything connected. I especially love the sense of community—I have met many counselors willing to share and help through the Friday Study Halls and Mentorship Circle. I now have a trusted source of professionals who make my work life easier. Plus the free tools available under Settings > Toolbox add real value.
  • As an independent educational consultant, I initially chose CounselMore several years ago as the college planning software to power my business. After evaluating several tools, I selected it for its incredible open integration with Google Drive and because it seemed to cover “all the bases” like an automated college list builder to help me curate college lists for families and an organized student portal for keeping track of assignments and communicating with families. It literally saves me hours and hours each week. But what I could never have fully understood at the time was just how powerful it is for these three main reasons: * Scalability - CounselMore was immensely valuable when I used it for five families. But as my business has grown exponentially, I’ve watched this platform increase my productivity every step of the way as we’ve grown to dozens of students at a time, to multiple employees, etc. It truly is a platform that easily scales as your business grows (and their pricing model scales easily as well!). You will not only find value if you are just getting started with a few students. but CounselMore will scale with you every step of the way. * Configurable and Customizable - I appreciate that the “out of the box” defaults are an intuitive way to get started. And as you get comfortable with it and learn and iterate on your business processes and how you like to work with clients, CounselMore can be configured to exactly match your processes, helping you to improve your productivity and workflow in a very agile way. * Collaborative Community – The CounselMore community is seriously the most collaborative group of people I have ever come into contact with. Users are always willing to share their college research, their best practices and show how they are using the product. And the CounselMore Support and Development teams are super responsive. They respond to questions quickly, they take feedback openly and are quick to help users understand best practices.
  • As an independent education consultant, I’m impressed by CounselMore’s modern, customizable platform, which saves hours through automation features like the College List Builder and seamless Google Drive Integration. The Application Tracker and Admissions Calculator empower data-driven decisions that I can help the families I work with, and the Student Portal empowers the student to become more organized and motivated to finish their applications well ahead of schedule. The free tools in Settings > Toolbox, such as ready-to-use college lists, are a great bonus for streamlining planning.
  • Modern and customizable college planning software with excellent tools like the College List Builder, Campus Fit Report, Admissions Calculator, Google Drive integration, and a clear, student-friendly portal. Huge time-saver.
  • What do we love best? The repeatable process. From the List Builder to the App Tracker (my personal favorite), we’re able to deliver consistent, high-quality advising with a click. It’s customizable, intuitive, and actually built for how families and consultants work today. The benefits are real. CounselMore helps us counsel more students, without burnout. The Google Drive integration, college readiness curriculum, student portal, and built-in messaging make it easy to stay connected with students and parents. Everything lives in one place—assignments, deadlines, supplemental essays, transcripts, and more. It’s modern college planning software that actually works. We also love how easy it is to plug in our own materials—like the College Sharks Essay Video Series—into the platform. Automation and integrations make it simple to support families on their own schedule. Bonus win? The free tools in Settings > Toolbox are gold. Little things like that show the team behind CounselMore truly understands what we need to do our job well. — Lee Norwood Founder, College Sharks Annapolis College Consulting

Cons

  • The system has numerous features that new users may need some time to explore and fully personalize. In year 2, I'm still learning how to use all the features and reports.
  • Because the tool can be adapted to fit so many ways that consultants like to work, it might seem a bit overwhelming to get started. But because each element of the platform adds value on its own, I learned to take it one step at a time and adopt more functionality as I went. And the help files, support team, and community are there to help you, so don't be afraid to jump in.
  • Because it is feature-rich, the platform may initially overwhelm new users, especially solo consultants navigating its extensive integrations. But the weekly community of other real users and plethora of training videos really help to discover all the ways it can help my business.
  • Takes a bit of time to learn, but the free tools in Settings > Toolbox and helpful community make it easier.
  • If I had to name a downside? Nothing major—though it’s worth noting that students and parents have the info at their fingertips…and still don’t always use it! But that's human nature, not software.
