Custody X Change vs KidsFirst

Custody X Change helps users create custody schedules and parenting plans, calculate parenting time, and keep co-parenting information organized. Its calendar accommodates regular, seasonal, holiday, and one-time changes, with calculations based on hours or overnights. The parenting-plan template has 144 provisions, and users can add their own. Other tools include a private journal, actual parenting-time tracker, expense tracking, child information, activities, and co-parent messaging. Messages can be printed with read receipts, and the messaging system detects hostile language. Calendars can sync with services such as Google Calendar or Outlook. The service also sends children's names, birth dates, and parenting-time totals to the cloud version of Family Law Software for child-support calculations. A limited free version restricts scheduling to five holidays and does not allow printing. The Parent plan starts at $6 a month, billed annually. The maker says data is encrypted in its database and in transit, but its terms do not guarantee court acceptance of a schedule or plan.
