Executive Director Individual & Family Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Active Educate transformed our summer camp experience" October 26, 2018 5.0 We used Activate Educate for our summer camp enrollments and are so glad we did. Pros The Activate Educate software was so user-friendly, I was able to add sessions to our summer camp enrollment with ease, check on the status of campers, and have the registration fee transferred to our account automatically. Cons Nothing! It was well designed and user friendly. Review Source Response from Global Payments October 29, 2018 Thanks for leaving us a review Rebecca, awesome to hear that your summer camp registration has been going smoothly! LG Lynn G. Director of Student Enrichment and Community Engagement Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review for ACTIVE Camp and Class manager " October 20, 2018 5.0 My overall experience has been very strong. I have had very few problems throughout the seven years that I have worked with ACTIVE Network. The few problems that have occurred were solved quickly. I most definitely recommend ACTIVE systems for camp registration and management. Pros ACTIVE software is very easy to use, the platform is very user friendly and the customer interface is clean. Cons ACTIVE pricing is quite expensive. The per - registration pricing is significantly higher than the per season pricing models offered by camp registration system competitors. Review Source Response from Global Payments October 23, 2018 Thank you, Lynn, for taking the time to give us a review. It's great to hear that our support team was able to resolve your issues quickly! DG Darlenne G. Education and Outreach Coordinator Education Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Active Review" October 19, 2018 3.0 When it comes to reaching out, active is the way to go. Easy to maneuver and afficient when communicating to participates. Pros We enjoy the ability to email our contacts all from one site - their email features come in handy when trying to view who is opening and clicking the links. Cons Their Virtual IT department is lacking. We had issues in the past that they could not solve. Communicating with them was a hassle and unaffective. Review Source Response from Global Payments October 23, 2018 Thank you for your feedback, Darlenne, we will be sure to pass your comments to our customer support team for consideration. CM Cyndy M. Auxiliary Director Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Au" October 19, 2018 4.0 Pros I like I can compare year to year easily, I can set up new seasons and session, make changes and copy old ones with ease. Cons The add-on for Active insurance and other things. Its upset many of my parents and they are under the impression that I added it onto the order unfairly. I don't like when I call customer service and I have to repeat myself about 4 times as to who I am and where I'm from. Im upset that attendance has been down and I receive emails to use it. Review Source Response from Global Payments October 23, 2018 Thank you for your feedback Cyndy, we appreciate you taking the time to write a review. I'll be sure to pass your comments on to our customer service team for consideration. LH Lindsay H. COO Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Camp + Class manager is my right hand man, or woman." October 19, 2018 5.0 Pros I like that I can set it up myself. I have had such a great time being able to set it up and make changes on my own. Cons I dislike the financial reconciliation at the end of the year, but honestly it's probably user error. Review Source Response from Global Payments October 23, 2018 Thank you Lindsay for taking time out of your day to give us feedback, we appreciate the 5 stars! CS Charles S. Executive Director Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ACTIVE educate" October 30, 2018 5.0 Very positive Pros We have used Active software for many years and are very pleased with the performance, functionality, support and ease of use Cons It is complex and there is a learning curve. There are at times unexplained and / or unexplainable glitches at the user end, an effect I think of the size and complexity of the software and the general unpredictability of web-based performance Review Source LC Lauren C. Administrator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Summer camp registration" October 30, 2018 4.0 The product has allowed us to go from paper registrations to an automated registration platform. Pros Ability to run reports about campers and see trends. Cons Unable to use multiple coupons on a camper registration for discounts. Review Source Response from Global Payments November 8, 2018 Thank you for your feedback, Lauren - we'll be sure to pass on your comments about discounts to our product team. MG Malcolm G. Owner/Strength Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Ease of Use" October 23, 2018 5.0 My overall experience has been a good one. From first contact, to setup, to first registration. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an easy to use program for their registrations and management process. Pros The product is so easy to use. It has all of the features you could possibly want and it is so simple. And if you have a question the support is awesome and they can show you how to do things live by allowing you to watch a feed of their own computer screens. It’s fantastic. Cons There’s not much I didn’t like. The only thing I could say is that maybe some sort of Instant Deposit feature would be great. In a world where things happen so fast now, it’s just kind of tough sometimes when you have to wait to get paid out from your registrations on a bi-weekly paycycle. But again, that’s just trying to find something to say because mostly the product is great! Review Source Response from Global Payments October 26, 2018 Thank you for the 5-star review, Malcolm, we're incredibly flattered! We especially love hearing that it's been a smooth process from first contact to your first registration. BM Brett M.

This organization took away many headaches in the past when constructing our summer basketball camps. Pros The ease with which I can use the product as well as my customers. No complaints from anyone in year 1! Cons There was nothing to be honest. I was able to set up our page how I wanted to which helped in the end.
