Looking up attendance, updating memberships and checking payment details takes only a few clicks. It has definitely made our routine work faster. > > **Cons**: Sometimes I wish there were more customization options for reports because every academy tracks things a little differently. Apart from that I haven't faced any major issues while using the software on a regular basis. > > The software has been a nice addition to our workflow. It isn't overloaded with unnecessary features and covers the things we actually need. There are still a few improvements I'd like to see, but overall it has worked well for us. ----- ### "Turnkey solution for your academy" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *23 July 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The easiness you can handle payments collection for your memberships through Stripe. What I love about MatGoat is the smoothness in which you can operate your academy. And their customer support is first class. > > **Cons**: If I had to choose one it would be that managing day-to-day admin work on the phone is always difficult compared to desktop, but with MatGoat you can still do quick checks and actions because it is responsive. > > I got my academy up and running in a few minutes. It’s amazing how easy is. And the fact that your can set it up with a tablet was a gamer changer for me. Definitely recommended. It’s one of the best turnkey solutions I’ve tested so far. ----- ### "Simple software that saves us time every day" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *22 August 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked the most is that the software doesn't feel complicated. We started using it without much training and everyone got comfortable pretty quickly. The attendance and membership management features save us time during busy class hours. > > **Cons**: The mobile version could be a little smoother in my opinion. I also felt that some advanced options are not immediately obvious, so a few more help guides inside the platform would make the learning process easier. > > We've had a good experience using MatGoat so far. It has helped us keep student information organized and reduced the need to maintain separate spreadsheets. Its been reliable for our daily operations. ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/537547/MatGoat) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
