### Most mentioned pros

- It's tailored well to your club and its unique needs, while also allowing your team the ability to continue customizing it as time goes on.
- This quick process helps us to support the client immediately & this way we can resolve an issue in real time opposed to waiting a week.
- The platform is user-friendly and offers a comprehensive set of features that streamline operations. While there can be a learning curve and occasional glitches, the robust customer support helps address issues promptly.

### Most mentioned cons

- I work in a cafe, and our usage of CA can be cumbersome when ringing up customer, i.e., to many buttons to press, from having to login pin number for every transaction, to having to answer a prompt every time that a credit card is used ingenico cardpointe that the transaction is not a debit, even if it is.
- Billing is rigid and error-prone, reporting is unreliable and difficult to extract useful data from, and access control issues create unnecessary risk and member frustration.
- The interface is clunky and unintuitive, simple tasks take far too many steps, and even minor changes often require submitting support tickets instead of being self-managed.

The best part of Club Automation is how simple it is to initially operate. It’s helped our operation.

### Love Club Automations User Friendliness

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Kevin C.

My overall experience is positive. I would say that the value for the money of this platform is worth the cost. Our facility wouldn't operate with as smoothly without having this to streamline our process.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I like the ease of having everything that we need in one convenient location. We can book a tennis court in one moment & then register someone for a cooking class. Also, the ability to check eligibility status of a member is quick. This quick process helps us to support the client immediately & this way we can resolve an issue in real time opposed to waiting a week. The payment process is also simple to navigate, as well as sending emails to the member. The leaning curve is short & you can also customize the different department screens to fit your needs.

#### Cons

This is minor, but when booking court reservations the system reverts back to our 5am reservations after clicking on a current reservation. In a nut shell, it would be nice if the screen would stay at the hour that we're currently checking, instead of resetting back to the start of the day.

There are better features added in the last 6 months, but it's still not as seamless as it could be for our company

I like how it looks. It's aesthetically pleasing. I also like how we can now click and drag to make appointments.

I don't like that we can only schedule clients on the :15. Due to my class schedules, I often start clients at times like 1:10 or 2:05. But there's no way to enter that.

I've been using it off and on since it's inception at College Park. But even with my experience, when I started using it again recently, I had to re-familiarize myself with the operation. Somewhat of a frustrating process at first, but well worth it.

#### Pros

It can do everything: fully integrated...and once user is acclimated, makes job easier. The support team is great.

#### Cons

It takes some time to figure out, but you guys are always there for help. And cost: I have wanted to use CA at different facilities I've worked for and it's usually decided that it's too expensive. However, I personally think worth it.

### Perhaps the most frustrating software and customer support I've ever used.

- Overall rating: 1/5
- Reviewer: Mitch E.
- Verified reviewer: Yes

There are several days when I would rather go back to a pencil-and-paper accounting system than use Club Automation.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The software has a good concept: that it can be used via the web from anywhere, automatically takes care of many processes that should make running a club easier.

#### Cons

The software is -extremely- buggy. This causes a lot of frustration for our members and reflects poorly on the club. Support is sub-par. Wait times when contacting support via the phone can be 30 minutes or more. Submitting tickets by e-mail is pretty useless--it takes weeks to get a response. The system appears to be a tennis court reservation system that kept experiencing feature bloat, and has now gone beyond it's designed capabilities. I have a degree in computer engineering and ran my own software company so I recognize many of the challenges they are going through, but it is an unacceptable customer experience.

#### Reasons for choosing Club Automation

We didn't consider other products at the time. After 3 years of trying to make it work effectively, we are now considering other solutions.

#### Reasons for switching to Club Automation

They talked us into making the switch when CSI bought club automation.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

We use online court reservations, resources management and POS. We have been a user since 2013 and have been very happy with the services up until late 2021.

#### Cons

I did not like that our permissions have been changed substantially under the new [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and working on the third trouble ticket to hopefully get resolved. They keep closing the ticket saying resolved, but they must not test as the issues are still there. We cannot change a court reservation in the past. Building up a backlog of reservations adjustments and refunds that customers have been waiting for. Making us look sloppy to our customers.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

I love the ease of use and the capability that we have to go paper free. We are able to track everything in the system from camp registration, programs, membership, personal training, etc. I love the visibility that we have to track and stay on top of all scheduling for our trainers and massage therapy staff.

#### Cons

The only thing negative drawback about the software is that when you have multiple facilities on the software, you are only able to have one logo for all facilities and one address / name for all facilities, which makes it difficult for invoicing and contracts.

Our experience with Club Automation has been a nightmare and not something I would wish on anyone. There are much better options out there with companies that actually want to work with your business and care about you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 1/5
- Value for money: 1/5

#### Pros

Nothing. Everything seems perfect until you sign the contract.

#### Cons

I am not one to leave reviews anywhere but if I can help one small gym owner from making such a big mistake than it will be worth it. Club Automation is the most deceitful company you will find marketing software in our industry. After promises we’re made that the software could perform a task our prior software could not we signed a contract with them. Immediately after the contract was signed we quickly learned that their software could not perform what they had promised. Club Automation attempted various times to collect money and make us continue with a 5 year contract after we told them it could not do anything they said and we did not want to proceed. We never implemented their software and years later they are still trying to collect money for it. If you are thinking about going with Club Automation feel free to personally reach out to me. It has honestly been one of our biggest mistakes since being in business 18 years is attempting to even work with a company who doesn’t have the best interest of their customer in mind.

#### Reasons for choosing Club Automation

They said it could perform something that we later learned it could not.
