## Reviews

### "Moving to RecDesk immediately improved customer usage." — 4.0/5

> **Pam** | *12 September 2022* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The product was easy to use for staff who must create the forms, registration options, and update back-end requirements while the product was easy to use for the customer.  We have grown to appreciate this software even more as upgrades have been made and new features added.
> 
> **Cons**: The only module that didn't fulfill our needs fully was the league module.  We have shared our needs with RecDesk on this module, especially for double-header scheduling and allowing more parameters for team needs to help generate the schedule.
> 
> Very good.  Our customer satisfaction and retention is much higher.  We're able to collect back-end data that helps to formulate our marketing tasks.  Control for registration openings/closings is in place  Customer service has been extremely reliable and quick to solve any issues.

### "Easy yet Precise\!" — 5.0/5

> **Kristie** | *25 May 2023* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy, Easy, Easy\! Everything is easy once set up it established. Learning the system is literally a breeze. I love the 'Resources' (how-to lookup) tab which is always visible when using RecDesk. Customer Service is AMAZING\! Everyone is super friendly and everyone is willing to share all their knowledge.
> 
> **Cons**: Setting up Bulk Email Campaigns is easy; however, you have to enter a different 'campaign' every time you'd like to send an email. You can schedule ahead, but, I do hope a 'copy' function is added in this module to easily re-announce the programs (i.e.: registration ends soon, registration ends tomorrow, etc.).
> 
> Phenomenal\! Thank you for the kindness and the fabulous product\!

> 
> **Cons**: While RecDesk will be there for you every step of the way to help you learn the in's and out's of their system, it might prove difficult for some to brave the learning curve the software asks for to fully take advantage of everyhting it has to offer.

### "West Hartford" — 5.0/5

> **Jaime** | *10 May 2022* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software is by far the easiest software for new staff to learn quickly. With so many part timers, and a high level of seasonal and part time turnover, its important that the basic functions be easy to learn and figure out. Its the most intuitive software to use on an admin level, and our customers also find it to be easy to figure out. The basics are basic enough for new staff to figure out.
> 
> **Cons**: Once you become proficent in the basics, the more advanced functions are convoluted and could be cleaner.  &#10;We dislike the Export to Excel, would prefer a report that generates a PDF. In the export, it creates a list and you have to remove categories in excel, instead of being able to toggle the desired categories in the system before generating the report.&#10;When data entering programs, we would like a report to confirm what was inputted instead of having to go through each tab individually. &#10;When creating programs, its frustrating to have to keep saving on every tab and also every individual date that it added.&#10;We want to do payment plans but it doesn't let you mass enroll into a payment plan, you have to individually set it up for each registration.&#10;Once parents put in their own emergency forms, they cannot go back in and update the information without registering for another program.
> 
> Overall, its a great system for registrations and scheduling. The customers find it very easy to use.

### "Ease of Use\!" — 4.0/5

> **Jessica** | *24 January 2024* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to use and the customer service is prompt
> 
> **Cons**: How coupons and discounts are applied to accounts
> 
> It has been a lifesaver having an online registration system in place when you are a department of 1 full time staff providing programs for over 1500\!
