In their own words
Primero
Primero is an open-source information management platform for protection-related data. Its use cases include child protection and gender-based violence case management, incident monitoring, and family tracing and reunification. Case workflows span identification, registration, assessment, planning, referrals and transfers, and closure, with supervision, notifications and tasking tools. The platform lists CPIMS+, GBVIMS+ and MRMIMS+ modules, along with intake forms, custom fields, audit trails and reporting dashboards. Teams can configure forms, roles, lookups, reports, languages, logos and locations through a self-service interface. Primero is available in more than 40 languages. Its v2 progressive web app works online and offline in modern browsers on mobile devices, tablets and laptops, though offline use is limited to creating cases and editing records already accessed in the session; changes submit after reconnection. A free DIY tier requires implementers to manage infrastructure and support. Full Service SaaS costs $8,250 a year, while Hybrid deployment costs $25,000 a year for the first year and decreases to the Tier 3 cost in year two and thereafter.
ShareVision
ShareVision is a cloud-based nonprofit CRM and case-management platform for direct-service organizations. It brings client records, service activity, goals, outcomes, staff workflows, and reporting into one system. Teams can maintain client profiles, case notes, documents, service enrollment histories, and waitlists, while tracking program and individual goals, assessments, indicators, and pre- and post-service surveys. Editable electronic forms and configurable fields let organizations adapt forms to their processes. Alerts can arrive in the app, by email, or by SMS; SMS requires a Twilio account. Calendar connections are available for Google and Microsoft. The responsive web platform works on mobile devices without an app. ShareVision lists encryption, configurable access, permissions, multi-factor authentication, and automated daily backups. It says customer data is held in Canada. Plans start with Simply 10 at $160 a month under an annual commitment, covering 1–10 users, 10 GB of built-in document storage, and unlimited clients and services. A free trial is available, but there is no free plan.
