About Class Manager

Class Manager is a cloud-based class administration solution designed to help dance studios, gymnasiums and swimming, martial arts and tennis clubs streamline processes related to billing, invoicing, email tracking, online registration and more. Administrators can configure access permissions for staff members, view class schedules on a calendar and accept payments via credit/debit cards, cheques, bank transfers and cash.

Class Manager allows dance studios to communicate with clients via text messages or email and maintain a record of class attendance by adding custom absence reasons. The online portal enables customers to manage data, payments history, billing and online registrations on a unified platform. Additionally, swimming clubs can create customizable invoices with brand logos and send them to clients.

Class Manager helps organizations to store data about pools, customers, staff, competitions and more in a centralized repository. It is available on monthly subscriptions and support is extended via live chat, knowledgebase, phone and email.

Pros:

The customer service! The team at MCM are always so quick to respond if I have a question about a feature or need assistance. I love that they are also always reaching out to ask us studio owners what we would like to see in the next update. Feels like we are a part of a team, not just a customer. Our internal admin staff, teachers and clients have all said that MCM is by far the best software we have used. They all love how user friendly it is.

Cons:

It is hard to think of one really... perhaps being able to edit an invoice after it has been sent without the need to create a new one.

Class Manager Review

Extremely positive. The system is easy to use, the initial online training is fabulous. When I have had issues, usually due to my non tech background, the chat facility has been brilliant at dealing with my issues. They are always super quick at responding. They also take on board any suggestions I have had to make the software even better from a user perspective.

Pros:

I love the integrated Stripe payments, and the registration options. The system is very easy to use, the apps are great for my teachers to upload information off site. It has cut down my admin time by days!!! I used to spend hours on a daily basis updating spreadsheets and reconciling bank statements. I am still in awe at the amount of time this system frees up for me to do other things. The registration process has been brilliant during lockdown, and face to face, ensuring that any child that jumps into another class is billed for that lesson - no more inadvertent freebies due to my bad admin skills. Love it.

Cons:

Students aren't automatically in alphabetical order, but I can change this whenever I go into a register.

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

More UK Centric, also dealt specifically with dance as opposed to a lot of other software providers which were sports orientated rather than dance specific.

Pros:

Covers the essentials required for the administration of a dance studio - invoicing, timetabling, contact info and email messaging. Its very well priced compared to other software that offers similar functions.

Cons:

The platform is still developing with new features being added all the time. Navigating the software can be cumbersome at times - shortcuts would help with some aspects. However the developers are happy to listen to suggestions and improvements are being made all the time

Pros:

I signed up to classmanager early on from its release and have been impressed with it from the start. It has developed quickly as we have gone on, but the team are great at communicating new features and how to use them. The are also really receptive to new ideas from their customers. All queries have been dealt with quickly, professionally and thoroughly. It’s a great way to database your students and is easy to use. It has made invoicing much quicker and therefore less accounting admin time is needed.

Cons:

I haven’t really found fault with the system any difficulty I have had in using has been due to me not knowing how to do something which has been quickly fixed with a look at the helpful guides or a quick message with one of the team who are always keen to hear about ideas for development.

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

At the time the product was much simpler which helped me to ease into it. I also much preferred the fixed low price.

Pros:

Class Manager listens to their users’ suggestion and the service keeps getting better. Before trying out class manager, I’ve tried other managing softwares and they are not as user friendly as CM

Cons:

I actually liked everything about it!!!!

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

I didn’t think about any product anymore. Other than jack rabbit I tried RADar foR RAD Teachers. Even other brands they are way too pricey and as the number of students increase the price goes up too. Unlike with CM it maintains the price. It’s a helpful software for new businesses.

Reasons for switching to Class Manager

The previous software is too complicated. First, I did Class Manager trial for a month and from then on I signed-up for subscription because I find it more beneficial for me.

Pros:

It met all the requirements we needed, students and parent database, easy to use. Even better that the parents/customers find it great to use too, not just us the administrators.

Cons:

Just the feature of being able to take card payments through the system, but I have been told this is coming soon. They have produced changes already that enhance the system in the short time we have been with them.

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

The team were helpful and friendly. The trial was well thought out and very accommodating. All the set up and transferring over from our old software was well explained.

Reasons for switching to Class Manager

Most of their system we never used and it was just too complicated.

Pros:

The customer service is amazing. Really helpful and quick to reply. As it is still relatively new they are constantly evolving and improving and take on board suggestions and want to work with the customers to make it the best platform possible. It has made invoicing and chasing invoices up SO much easier. Massive time saver and now you can add products onto orders=even better

Cons:

Eg if I was looking at 100 invoices and I got half way through the list and went on one to look at it, if I then clicked back it would take me to the beginning of the list again which can be frustrating!

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

Price. Included everything . Dance teachers earn a minimal amount so we don't want to spend a huge chunk on admin software and I feel the price point is just right in that respect.

Pros:

Class Manager is perfect for our growing dance school, we have no pressure of paying extra as our school grows. Any suggestions that are made are completely took on board and considered. The layout of class manager is great. It's easy to navigate and the fact that parents have their own portal is a bonus as it keeps them on track!

Cons:

Anything that we have suggested so far about parts that we were not happy with have been improved. So, as of now class manager has no negatives.

Reasons for switching to Class Manager

Class Manager is specifically for dance schools so it has all the features that we wanted to be included.

I am a technical dummy but this software is brilliant

Since I started using Class Manager, more and more facilities have been added so I can now invoice for merchandise and apply various discounts for things such multiple classes and sibling discounts. As I said, I'm a bit of a dummy when it comes to technology but the friendly and extremely patient Class Manager support team are always there to talk me through and make everything work seamlessly.

Pros:

I was looking for a way to better organise and reduce the administration for my ballet school and honestly, I tried Class Manager because it was the most affordable option for my smallish ballet school. Since I have been using the software, not only has it made my invoicing and accounting infinitely more efficient but it has made my business look much more professional.

Cons:

It took me quite a long time to input the data first time around but now it'a all in place, it's a doddle. Well worth the initial work and very simple to run.

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

Mainly affordability but also because the system is specifically designed for dance schools such as mine. I particularly like that the system allows for the expansion of my growing business without increasing the price.

Class manager organisation

The online chat help has really been useful for me because whenever I’ve got stuck someone has always been there to advise! I just kept asking until I knew what I was doing and it took about a week or so to get totally used to it, but once you know what you’re doing it’s amazing! I also think it’s important that everyone goes through the getting started steps!

Pros:

I love that I can send invoices and reminders without having to send individual and personal messages to my customers. The messaging system is brilliant too as it is now saving on texting and organising groups on my phone.

Cons:

There are some things I can’t do like give a child a holiday allowance of their own so we have had to change the way we work to keep it it more simple.

Reasons for choosing Class Manager

Because the price was the same no matter how many students you have! It seems crazy to me that your success of getting more students means you have to pay more! I wouldn’t be doing anything different with a few extra students so why should the price change! That was a massive thing for me when choosing a software and class manager is the only one who does that!
