“CommCare is hands-down the most versatile & user-friendly digital health platform for practitioners and educators. I have embraced CommCare to facilitate group exercises for university learners ranging from undergraduate business students learning about mobile technology and social impact, to graduate public-health students with global health specializations. Dimagi has a wealth of tutorials and guides, and their product team is incredibly responsive and supportive to educators.”
“It was a pleasure and privilege to host Dev More from Dimagi to talk about CommCare in my ‘Health Communication’ course held at Habib University during spring semester 2022 in Pakistan. The country is facing a myriad of health issues and CommCare’s technological infrastructure and user-friendly design can be significantly instrumental in reducing the gap between healthcare providers and communities. I highly recommend CommCare for wide scale use in Pakistan!”
