I like that gym assistant is affordable. Their customer service is great and it’s an easy system to use that allows you to be hands off.
Just shy of 1 year later, the 2 gyms were linked, and we have had nothing but problems. We have called and emailed with no reply back.
We are very pleased with Gym Assistant. We have found it to be a very supportive system that is accommodating and flexible with our ever evolving and growing programs.
The only pain point I have experienced was related to the 24/7 access part of this software, specifically the installation of the maglock/ control unit.
I love the ease of use with gym assistant. M someone who learns as they go and with gym assistant, it has been a great journey with [sensitive content hidden] and the teams help along the way.
I also have a lot of issues with the member picture. It's possible it's just my computer, but half the time I go to take the picture the software will crash.
I could allow my members to customize their payment plans, and most payment methods were accepted via the software. I also liked how competitive, yet affordable the pricing for the software was.
I don't like that when my computer resets or updates, often times the software doesn't reopen doorkeeper as its supposed to and my door system fails to open for customers who have keys.
I like the general structure of how it works and the ease in which the system seems to outline your products. I like the ability to customize it to suit your needs.
Just a terrible overall experience and product. Also, there is no phone support at all.
I love how "lightweight" this software is. If you're looking to create a course, but don't want quizzes and bunch of the overhead that comes with a full LMS, RCP is a great solution.
My only criticism is the limited layout of sign up forms... they could potentially add easier options for styling and customisation. I've had to bring in a dev to code these.
I am happy with my purchase and hope they stay current and competitive with other membership plugins.
It's been a disappointing process, to say the least and Avalara acknowledged there weren't even one dozen users of the combo.
I love the ability to easily create a variety of membership levels as well as different discount codes. I also love the variety of add-ons that give additional functionality.
We had an issue with the first site we used RCP on where it did not smoothly integrate with some custom aspects of our site's theme, and it was difficult to pin down where the issue was.
Katie R.: Hello, my name is Katie. I'm an owner of a gym. I would rate Gym Assistant as a five out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. So I was actually very fortunate that Gym Assistant was the first company that I had ever used. I did research tons of different ones trying to figure out what would be the easiest. And we really just hands down thought Gym Assistant looked the best and most cost-effective over everything we had researched. So we ultimately opened up our gym using Gym Assistant. And we've been using it for about, I would say, eight years now I think we are going on, eight years now, and it's been nothing but great. We chose Gym Assistant just because it was simplistic. We could easily just skim the manual and just get up and running. And that's really what we needed. We didn't have a lot of time for everything that we were doing because we had so many different business endeavors at one time, but the gym was one of our priorities, and we found Gym Assistant. Just with their tech support, they walked us through getting it all installed, and actually, even hooking up our gym doors so that it connects to the gym door. And so people can scan a fob and it links to the software. And they just were fantastic all around. And it just made it super easy. We could walk right up to the software. We loaded our first person in and we were up and running just as simple as that. It was really simple to onboard and incorporate it into our business. I mean, it really makes our business what it is, just all the simplistic features in it. I shouldn't say there's simplistic features. It's simplistic in use, but the features really go in depth. And I feel like every year I think, "Oh, I wish maybe the software did this," and I'll call them and they'd be like, "Well, we actually just added that." And they're continually upgrading, and there's even a ton of features that we haven't even started using yet just because we're not there yet, but it's very in depth in what you actually can use it for. I would definitely recommend you use Gym Assistant. I mean, you could do all your research on all the other companies just to feel as secure in what you're choosing, but hands down, Gym Assistant's going to be your software for your member management, for tracking all the funds, for running all your funds for all your gym members. It runs the gym. Without that our gym would not be running. I say chuckling that our gym is self-run and it's really because of Gym Assistant. It eases my life so much.
Simon: My name's Simon. I work as a director for a nonprofit company, and I give Restrict Content Pro a star rating of four out of five. We use Restrict Content Pro, RCP software, and we weren't using any software befor.e we began a membership subscription website. But we looked at a variety of WordPress plugins that would give us the functionality, but RCP stood out head and shoulders above the rest in terms of functionality and add ins. RCP offered us a variety of functions, such as discount codes, which are really important, offer promotions for the membership website. Also able to offer different types of membership and to look at customers and all of the products that they had bought using the software. Those functionalities were what made us choose RCP. RCP came with lots of documentation that enabled us to start using it very quickly. And there's also an intuitive feel to the software, which meant that reference to documentation didn't need to take place for a lot of the functionality, which just seemed very intuitive. The Restrict Content Pro software comes with a number of different purchase levels. We bought at a single website usage, but then realized we needed to use it on a number of websites and were able to upgrade. That was one of the things that means that I would recommend people to use this. It's able to grow with your organization and your level of usage.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
