CivicPlus Recreation Management 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

It allows us to keep track of our building and pavilion rentals, register our sports programs, keep track of our concessions, and many other things.

We needed PCI compliant and got stuck with this platform that may be good for larger cities but not good for small entities.

We are able to easily complete our programming and registration tasks within a resource that all of our staff have access to. The information we provide our citizens is consistent. We utilize CivicRec for programming, registrations, facility reservation management, point of sale operations and reporting. It is a comprehensive management system. Participants young and old use the system daily and with ease to check-in to their classes and programs!

We are a city organization in Idaho and we've been working with Rec1 for about a year now and our experience has been excellent. The software had a few small bugs and didn't do 100% of what we wanted when we signed up but that quickly changed. Rec1 worked though every "demand" we had and were very pleasant and knowledgeable with all that their software can do. They never remove features or functionality but are continuing to grow and expand their accounting, user interface, and POS management and to this day accomplishes everything we want in a recreation/POS/facility software. Accounting is also streamlined and easy to use. A cool feature is the customer roadmap where you can submit or vote on ideas for further development. There were even times they developed new parts of the software simply because we asked. For the cost of 1% of our revenue, this service it's absolutely worth every penny! Our only complaint when compared with other software companies comes from the lack of phone support. They do have an emergency line but generally, correspondence is done through email. Having the ability to pick up a phone and immediately talk with an expert would be nice rather than the unknown timeframe of email (although still fairly quick). Overall I'd give this software 4.8/5 stars

It has improved the quality of customer services by: making scheduling of reservations quicker and easier, allows for online customer rentals and availabilities, decreasing double bookings, increasing sales totals, improving tracking of rentals and allows for ease of tracking reservation and accounts receivable by the reporting features.

The problems with Civic.rec are abrupt and numerous. Unreliable software filled with glitches and poor website formatting and management. Poor customer service filled with no answers but work arounds to the problems. When discovering that Civic.rec could not communicate with Yahoo emails we were told to create a VPN instead of the website doing the obvious thing and working to find a solution with Yahoo. They were not up front with just how poorly their tech support is run or the existing issues with the software.

CivicRec has been a much needed upgrade in registration and reservation software for our department. Support from CivicRec has been good.

My experience with CivicRec has been overall positive, yet I would still cautiously recommend the product.

Implementation was very smooth and the product has met most of our needs. We hope that as CR grows so does its ability to create new requsted features at a much more rapid rate.
