I've been using the for software for 19 years and have a great relationship with the customer support and sales teams.

Pros

The ability to create custom reports and have those reports run emailed to the person directly. The ability to create profiles for the different users and user groups.

Cons

There are not enough hours in the day to use all the features of the software. Having used the software for so long, I would love to see more information as it relates to specific modules.

Overwhelmed at first, but now comfortable with using it. I find it easy to use and also to explain how to use it

Pros

The almost unlimited ability to get any report and ask it to conform to what we need. Once I started working with it the easier it became.

Cons

The Help section is hard to use. It is confusing and often does not pertain to what I want. If it does not help me I send in a ticket.

Very positive--the few times we have had glitches with it, support has been very quick to help fix it.

Pros

It's a great way to set up programming for a park district. It's great for programming, memberships, punch passes, and POS. It keeps things organized within our budget as well. It's the best program I have worked with--though it does require a steep learning curve.

Cons

Sometimes their updates will cause glitches--some minor, and some are major. Usually it's not an issue--but when it is, it affects all of our programming and membership.

Overall it's a great system. Whenever there is a problem, I can count on Winfield Reichert to help me out !

Pros

How easy it is to use. I love the fact that I can use different screens for tee times and green fees.

Cons

There are so many different options, that it is sometimes difficult to navigate. A good problem to have !

I have been using it for 25 years now. While it has been frustrating trying to learn how to program over the years, the customer support has come a long way. Dedicated employees to maintaining and programming Rec Trac are very necessary.

Pros

The customer support system has improved greatly over the last 20 years.

Cons

There is a whole lot to learn on the IT side and programming side of things.

Between the costliness to add the online features and the difficulty with navigating we determined that RecTrac was no longer the best fit for our company moving forward.

Pros

The best feature of RecTrac is that the user has the ability to quickly clone activities to save time when creating recurring programs or activities.

Cons

The RecTrac program is not user-friendly. It is difficult to navigate and even more difficult to train new staff to use. We also discovered that with ever-changing technology we needed to add the online check-out option. However, it was unreasonably expensive.

Overall management, especially facilities is great with Rectrac. The time needed to train staff to use the program and the software not being intuitive is the biggest drawback.

Pros

Rectrac is a nice system to use if you have a large program with multiple facilities. Good to use for something like a Parks & Rec program. It has great software for multi-facility management and booking. Registration for programs can also be used on a large scale. Payment processing is simple.

Cons

The system is not user friendly. Staff must be well trained in order to use the programs especially for registration, loading classes, and running reports. When selections are incorrectly selected, there are no clues given on how to get the report you need.

Reasons for choosing RecTrac

In my new program, I have switched over to Jackrabbit since my program is now smaller and the Jackrabbit is much more user friendly.

I have never been so frustrated with almost every aspect of a software.

Pros

Although there are a lot of features included they are not easy to use AT ALL.

Cons

Customer service is absolute trash, when they finally respond it's as if they are learning the software while trying to be the expert at the same time. Software is not intuitive at all. Constant issues with connection, reports running late, information not being updated, too many back-end manual work. Nothing is simple or easy. There are so many steps to complete one single task.

Pros

This software has the potential to do many things in certain recreational settings.

Cons

Since moving to the 3.1 we have had so many issues, far more than is acceptable with any software. The integration program was a connectivity issue for years. We weren't getting waivers with online registrations for months and only found out about it by accident. The separate steps and screens you must visit to set up anything in the software is too many and easily missed. After 4 years of having the 3.1 only one team member is able to do 90% of the software operation and the rest of the staff struggles with just running reports. We are not able to use many of the features in RecTrac due to requirements we cannot follow, such as drop in classes, daycare classes, invoicing, there is always a stipulation in the programming that hinders us from being able to use it as we need to use it. Example: billing or invoicing, a service item cannot be invoiced. We must include a service item in 90% of invoices. We also receive complaints from patrons about the on-line registration and it's confusing layout. We are currently having issues with the online site not working properly ( we are hosted online) and not knowing there is an issue till a patron calls to inform us.
