Estefan J
Academy Owner
5.0

Estefan J.: My name is Estefan. I'm actually the owner of my academy and I give Martial Arts on Rails five stars. If you want to see more reviews like this, click the link below. So I actually never used a different software before. I mean, there were different options out there, like Zen Planner and different sort of yoga studio ones, but to be honest, I came across it on an ad, saw the interface, and I was pretty much just hooked right away. So to be honest, I was a bit familiar with Zen Planner before because it was using at the last academy I was working at, but the problem I found was it was just so bulky and clunky and it didn't really move. It wasn't optimized right. And so once I went to Martial Arts on Rails, I found that the interface was really nice. It looked very modern, up to date, and it was very fast and very responsive, which was a big deal for us. To be honest, it was really... It was very nice and easy. So we pretty much put it on all our devices. I have it on my phone, on our laptop, and our tablet. And in terms of actually getting the whole thing going, it really was super smooth. I mean, every time we emailed, we had a very quick response. I'm talking within half an hour and it was... We asked a lot of questions, but it was within half an hour we'd get something back. Oh, how does this work? How does that work? It was smooth sailing. Well, to be honest, I would just say if you've had a different one before, give this one a try. Believe me, it is a lot more simple and it just gets a lot of details done right. And with it being smooth and optimized, less headaches, it's just... It's a... Just give it a try. You got nothing to lose.
