Twin Oaks Software
[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and tge twin oaks support team in general is absolutely amazing. They are quick to respond and help whenever I need it.
PROSThe software makes it easy for us to add and remove options to our Point of Sale System and it does a great job of providing us with a detailed sales analysis weekly, monthly and annually. It also is great for time keeping reports.
CONSOur Clock in scanner misfunctions often for employees who are trying to clock in with their badge. It also makes it difficult manually to clock in because the employees have to change their password so often that they forget it. The biggest complaint is the merchant card service charges. Please try to shop for a new company that doesn't charge as much for credit card transactions.
Reason for choosing Twin Oaks
[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] convinced us to purchase it when she demonstrated the product to use years ago.
Vendor Response
Thank you for providing this review Terrence. We will reach out to you and take a look at what you're currently being charged as perhaps something is misaligned. Typically the CC rates are very competitive across the industry.

Happy customer
We love them.
PROSFrom the beginning when we began extracting our data to the first monthly draft the Twin Oaks team was there guiding and assisting to make the process a success. We love the ongoing support and accessibility when we have question or need assistance.
CONSAt this time I don’t think we have any cons. The software is meeting our needs. We do like that they are always looking for ways to improve.
Reasons for switching to Twin Oaks
We felt very limited as well as it was hard to get the ongoing assistance needed. We also loved the dashboards.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the kind words Debbie. We're always striving to service & support our clients.

Desktop Version Review
The folks at Twin Oaks are all really great folks. The reps are helpful, the tech guys know their stuff, and the trainers are very well versed. We have the desktop version, which I am told is a very stripped-down version of their online version. We got the desktop version as we are not a large entity and wanted to try and maintain some control over our accounting and member management. It has turned out to be difficult to the point of us slowly turning over one function and another to them. The software is not intuitive or easy on the eye or to follow. The manuals are huge and difficult to follow, and some places don't seem to give correct directions. The software does just about anything you could want it to, but figuring out how to do it is as difficult as doing it once you do find out. That is not true for every function, but is for too many. The enterprise company has really nice rates, but is a pain to try to get through to someone if you have a problem. They are available for free training over the phone that you schedule with them. What is hard is getting that training for yourself or your personnel when you have to be using your computers on the job and can't tie them up to train.
PROSGreat personnel. Fair and upfront pricing. Office hours are generous, and a 24/7 line is made available for tech emergencies. Knowledgeable techs. A couple personnel are experience with Quick Books, so are great help if you have to transmit things to QB.
CONSInterface is not intuitive or easy to use. If you are not in their area, you must get training over the phone and remote computer, which can be difficult to schedule for employees. Manual is huge, hard to follow and sometimes inaccurate. Customizing modules or pages is mostly impossible, so you are often stuck with a bunch of stuff/clutter on a page that you don't use or need.

The only Pandemic "Plus"
In June of this year our fitness center migrated from the Twin Oaks Version 6 software to the new ADVANTAGE online system. What impressed me the most was the advance preparation and relatively seamless transition. We were able to customize our software to our industry and have been able to "tweak" it as we go. We have been able to customize reports to increase our sales by utilizing the sales breakdowns and targeting our advertising accordingly. Sales and Client Relations staff are readily available to answer any concerns or assist with formatting new reports or other requests as they occur.
CONSIntegrating with the new software was relatively seamless. As I stated we had an older Twin Oaks software product already in use. However, the change over occurred the end of June (Pandemic time) so we had trained our Front Desk staff and then there was constant change of personnel. Business was slower during this timeframe so there was not the normal frequency of using the system so the staff was constantly entering sales incorrectly (despite a handy "how-to" manual). I found I was spending a large portion of time correcting entries. This however may be more of a "pandemic" situation. The only other item to mention would be that I was used to the reports which were available on our older release and not on the Advantage system. However, the client relations staff (particularly [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]) were always available to assist me in creating /customizing the reports I needed.

Very Basic
It is very basic and might be something for a small gym definitely doesn't work well with bigger gyms.
PROSI liked the layout of the software. It was very easy to find most things. Response time from Twin Oaks was typically pretty quick.
CONSI don't like that it is hard to use a calendar on their software and that you can not sync their calendar to your phone. We literally had to use 3 different calendars to keep track of appointments. Billing was a hassle. We would have members not bill and some bill. Others would put in cancelationsand still get billed. I also don't like how once a member is created its almost impossible to delete them or merge them with a different account. Also when we switched from softwares we ended up finding out that twinoaks wasn't even redeeming sessions for the trainers so we had clients with 120 sessions when they should've only had like 20. It was a mess.

They are doing an Awesome Job
Over all the experience I have had with them has been great. The transition from desktop to online was a breeze, and the staff has been very helpful with all of my questions and training of my staff on the new software.
PROSI love the New App and the online access. We have used Twin Oaks for several years and the online system is much more user friendly!!! We are very happy so far with what they are doing!!!
CONSThe only thing I dislike about the new software is when down loading the app, on iPhone it is a little confusing, but I think that is an iPhone thing because it is super simple with an android.

Twin Oaks software does the job
Positive. Staff is willing to help when needed and provide solutions.
PROSWe use Twin Oaks for membership in our church recreation center, which uses paid memberships for members and non-members. The Twin Oaks software has the flexibility to handle a number of different customer categories, a strong accounting feature and numerous ways to retain members. The response from Twin Oaks customer support is very good as well.
CONSRenewing memberships before a member's expiration date can be confusing as well as shufflinf between different types of payments.

Thank you for taking the time to do a review Lance, we appreciate your input and feedback. Please let us know if we can help further and do some additional training for doing renewals.

Randi - STLFC
Our club has used Twin Oaks for 6+ years and are very happy with our experience. Tech support is available 24 hours with a call back feature, Carole in sales is amazing and so are most everyone I have worked with! Their historical tracking and business features make it possible to run our business the way we need to!
PROSThe sales and membership tracking make keeping up with our sales and growth super easy! The pricing has never changed or gone up at all, which is nice to know that that is set and not something we have to be concerned about.
CONSUntil you learn the software, it does not appear to be the most user friendly.

After almost 5 years with them ,they have been exceptional and professional to the max.
It simply allows our club to operate in a simple and effective manner. It provides the feedback and report metrics we need to improve our business.
PROSA club like ours needs the services this kind of software offers.The staff has always been kind and knowledgeable even when dealing with a novice like me. I have turned down a great many software marketing companies who call upon us promising the world of services. Simply put no reason to change horses with yours has no bad habits as does whatever task you ask.

It has been very good for us and the addition of Twin Oaks handling our credit card processing has been very smooth.
PROSThe software is easy to use and train new employees on.

Reason for choosing Twin Oaks
Ease of use and the guidance offered by [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was very beneficial.
Reasons for switching to Twin Oaks
Former system did not offer upgrades.
Vendor Response
