MusicBiz is an excellent product making management seamless

MusicBiz has an Australian technical team, who are available to work through any problems with us. This is such a distinct advantage of the software.

PROS

This database is the only one we need to manage our database of over 800 students and 25 music teachers. We can schedule lessons, track attendance, send emails and texts, create and send bulk invoices and manage enrolments. MusicBiz is intuitive and easy to use and integrates with other software packages such as Xero and other direct debit companies.

CONS

MusicBiz has provided the ability to store links to online meeting software, which has helped us transition online for the COVID-19 Pandemic. It would be great if ThinkSmart could create their own online meeting platform that is tailor made for the music lesson industry.

Melton Music Musicbiz review

*admin takes less than half the time it used to before using musicbiz. *accounting is seamlessly integrated so come BAS time there is less admin to do. * updates since we first started using Musicbiz have vastly improved and continue to improve the functionality and usability of the product.

PROS

*Intergration with accounting software and direct debit soulutions *All-in-one solution for enrollments, bookings, staff worked hours, invoicing. *Customer portal with remote lessons option *Notifications

CONS

*needs the Ability to send digital certificates to customers when a skill level is completed *Text messaging - needs ability to purchase in block packs rather than per text to reduce per text cost. eg 100 text $10.00 or 500 texts $25.00 etc. *needs a student portal where teachers can send through pdf files, mp3s, midi files etc. to encourage students to practice more often and guide their practice. One way might be integration with "Musicate" app or similar features as "Musico.io" *ability to delete invoices in Xero when deleted in Musicbiz *simplified way to setup subscription enrollment options, for parents who don't want to enrol term by term. Perhaps a recurring enrollment option (2 lessons or 4 lessons at a time) that we switch off if and when the student cancels. This should be setup with automatic Direct debit payments.

Reason for choosing MusicBiz

While My Music staff is better setup for interactions between teachers and students, Musicbiz is far superior on the admin side of things such as invoicing, timetable, works staff hours etc and at the end of the day that is more important for smooth Music school operation than the latter.

Business Critical Software

We could not function without Musicbiz. Out of all the offerings for management systems for Music Schools, MusicBiz is far superior.

PROS

The integrated nature of MusicBiz means that it is a one-stop shop for all our needs. We don't need a suite of lots of different software - from our customer database, to invoicing, to scheduling, it's all in one offering.

CONS

Anytime we have needed any adjustments to the program, the developers have been more than accomodating. So, any deficits in the program have always been rectified.

Reason for choosing MusicBiz

A cloud-based but not WEB based software was a must for me.

Reasons for switching to MusicBiz

former software was too limited.

Tailored for the Music Industry

Overall, this makes admin work feel like a walk in the park, which allows more time to focus on other things. This is really a game changer and I can't wait to see more features from this because it is so intuitive and is packed with all the things that you need.

PROS

Musicbiz makes booking appointment, scheduling of activities, sorting students and their information along with it, payments and all tedious admin work feel like a breeze. And although this is packed with great features I didn't notice any lag. The best part is that these features are easily accessible with its very intuitive interface. Although, I love navigating and exploring anything when I encounter a new software or tool, it pays to have a very simple and intuitive one as it makes learning faster.

CONS

So far I don't see any integration for sharing dropbox and google drive. It would be awesome to have this because the teacher can easily share material to the student. Another great feature would be to have like a dedicated portal for teacher and student which has tablatures or sheet music, so it would be nice to access a "library" of materials that the student use for learning. This would be a great alternative to just sharing pdfs or other document formats when giving learning materials. I know this software is instead to facilitate admin functions but since it is tailored to the music genre, it would be awesome to have such features.

Transforming the management of my music school

From the moment I started using this software, it has significantly simplified and improved the administration of my music school.

PROS

The ease of use and the sheer number of features it offers is great. The software is very intuitive and has allowed me to automate many tasks that used to take a lot of time. From scheduling to invoice generation, everything is done quickly and efficiently.

CONS

One aspect that has caused me some frustration is the lack of customization options in the software. Although the interface is easy to use, I would like more flexibility to tailor the system to the specific needs of my music school.

MusicBiz: a mandatory application for music teachers

PROS

The most interesting thing about MusicBiz is that it allows you to organize the students in an organized and schematic way. It has different tables to organize the students and their personal data, their monthly payments and their calendar of activities. The design is simple, this is very good because it allows you to write, edit and control information quickly and intuitively.

CONS

Something negative of Music Biz is the null relation with other applications that could be useful, like Dropbox or Google Drive, for the management of files with the students

One of the most adgirdable and accountable app

My overall aspect about this app, is that it has very good functions and is very adaptable and efficient.

PROS

What I love most about MusivBiz is the multi functional ability to have both its administrative and accounting aspect of the app. It saves time and money, its a one stop shop. I also love the fact that without Internet this app can also work, which is a plus.

CONS

Certification is one of the issue I have had thus for based on using this app. All in all its a good app.

Good option to manage your music lessons

I used it for a long time when I was taking a lot of classes and it helped me a lot

PROS

Allow me to participate in different classes with different teachers, one for each different instrument I was trying to learn. Very easy and practical to use. Very easy to schedule missed classes

CONS

I believe it could have more integrations with other apps

Ottimo programma per scuole di musica

Utilizzo questo software da poco tempo ma per adesso mi ha decisamente convinto.

PROS

Ottimo software che grazie alla sua semplicità di utilizzo e tutti i suoi tool a disposizione è in grado di facilitare notevolmente tutti i noiosi compiti di uno studio di registrazione, facendo quindi risparmiare un sacco di tempo.

CONS

Per adesso non ho riscontrato nulla in particolare
