I would highly recommend CHL and ASSET. The beauty of ASSET is that CHL have the ability to tailor the software to incorporate any ideas or suggestions you may have so it can be adjusted to exactly meet your requirements. ASSET is extremely user friendly and has a wealth of options to improve statistical reporting within an organisation. It has made the administration of our JC+ contract (Workstep) much simpler and we now find that the figures we are producing are reliable and consistent.
The support that CHL offer for ASSET is exceptional. They deal with any issues promptly and happily offer advice even if it is for something basic and just us being thick! I would recommend them without hesitation

When we were a small fostering agency, we tracked our placements manually, on spreadsheets. As our business grew, we realised we needed a more professional solution. We looked at other products, but CHARMS was the one that our staff got really excited about. It’s easy to use and has enabled us to replace our manual processes.
