Thanks for building this great tool. I use it almost everyday in my business. Review Source Response from Uplifter October 17, 2024 Thank you for your feedback! We're glad that Uplifter has been an essential tool for your business. If you need any further assistance, feel free to reach out! SW Steve W. Registrar Music Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Well Satisfied " October 22, 2025 5.0 Very satisfied. Their support response is outstanding in terms of quality, timeliness and completeness. The person who gave me the initial on line demo of their app’s capabilities understood their system and had a decent grasp of our requirements and limitations (Other possible providers seemed to deliver a more canned demo catering to a “model” client) The ability to automatically manage wait lists fits our needs to a T.(Some programs fill in a day or two when registration opens in December- camp week is mid-July). There was a bit of a learning curve - in part aligning terminology to our usage - but not a big deal. The ability to modify terms as they appear in forms and reports is a plus. Pros Value for $. We are a single annual event non-profit music camp run by a volunteer board. We have experienced significant growth post-Covid and Uplifter’s pricing structure and database setup fits our needs and capabilities very well Cons Limitations on customizing reports. Although the report suite is comprehensive and does provide some predetermined filtering that can be saved, I periodically need to download multiple report datasets and combine in a standalone DBMS to get the reports I really need. I do appreciate that there is an absolute need by Uplifter to ensure the integrity of their reporting suite as it is too easy to inadvertently create misleading reports if one does not have a solid grounding in database structures. I’ve seen far too much of this in my career.

The Google forms-based setup was an emergency fill-in which required constant monitoring. Review Source KF Kimberly F. Executive Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A Season of Disappointment" June 5, 2025 3.0 We were very satisfied with Uplifter up until this past year. Key priority issues were felt handled poorly on urgent concerns affecting payments. Issues become a reflection of our business if the experience is not positive one for our clients. Pros Registration programming was user friendly and customer communication via emails was great for sending out information. Cons Lack of priority for fixing key issues involving payments through installment plans, updating credit cards and previous issues with waiver forms. Alternatives considered [iClassPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/127097/iClassPro/) Reason for choosing Uplifter We choose Uplifter because it is a Canadian company Switched from [SmartRec](https://www.capterra.com/p/198905/SmartRec/) More flexibility and price point as well as intigration with membership management with our governing body Review Source Response from Uplifter June 6, 2025 Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We're really sorry to hear this past season didn’t meet expectations, especially after previously being satisfied with Uplifter. We understand how frustrating issues with payments and waivers can be, and how they impact your client relationships. Please know your feedback is being taken seriously. We're actively working to improve how we handle urgent support and third-party integrations. We truly value your business and hope we can regain your confidence moving forward. LK Laurie K.

It has excellent capabilites and intuitive function, with excellent support. We are going into our second year and the transfer between seasons was easy, allowing us more time to explore other capabilities the system offers. The different modules and permission settings have been very helpful in allowing different board members to take ownership of their tasks and reduce administrative burden. Pros Uplifter has many useful features. You can start with very functional basics and expand into using enhanced features as you get comfortable with the system. Uplifter reduces administrative burden, making it easy to onboard new staff. Support is very responsive, and the online FAQ is comprehensive. Cons The value is good, but the price can still be a considerable expense for a small club with 150 members. More options in lower tiers? Switched from [SportsEngine](https://www.capterra.com/p/134125/SportsEngine/) Uplifter was set up for skating clubs. Sportheadz was set up for hockey or baseball. It did not meet our needs.

Club Administrator Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Uplifter is Amazing" June 9, 2025 5.0 We are a not-for-profit sports organization and we love all things Uplifter. The program has everything we need to organize and support our club and make our programs run smoothly. We have over 1400 members a year and over 6000 members in the database and our experience is excellent. We have been with Uplifter since 2015 and we recommend them to everyone. The price of the program is competitive and a great value. The customer service is second to none. We are extremely please. Pros The customer service is excellent. Uplifter is always improving their platform and adding new features to simplify the experience. Cons The formatting of the web page can be difficult to line up columns at times. It may look straight and then when I save it the information shifts. Reason for choosing Uplifter It seemed to be geared more towards our sport and it seems to offer more versatility for what were were able to do with the platform. Review Source YH Yves H. Business owner Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent online registration and management system for sports clubs" June 9, 2025 5.0 5 stars tells you all! Beside the discount set up that I feel complicated, I love all the rest of the platform. Pros 1\. The customer service is excellent and quick. 2. They allow us to use multiple vendors and venues. 3. The platform is really versatile. 4. To my point of view it is quite easy to use. 5. It is a Canadian Company! Cons Basicaly not too much. I love the customer service but do not like that it is only by email... Also I do not like how discount works. I feel it complicated! Alternatives considered [iClassPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/127097/iClassPro/) Reason for choosing Uplifter Was looking better, was recommended by AGF. It was a Canadian Company and was allowing me to use multiple locations Switched from [SmartRec](https://www.capterra.com/p/198905/SmartRec/) Alberta Gymnastics Recommendation (AGF). Review Source Response from Uplifter June 13, 2025 Thank you for the glowing review, 5 stars means a lot! We're so happy Uplifter’s flexibility, vendor and venue support, and overall ease of use are working well for your club. Being a Canadian company, we're proud to support organizations like yours. We appreciate the feedback on discounts and support channels, both are areas we're actively working to improve. Thanks again for your trust and for being part of the Uplifter community! DM Deb M. Operations Manager Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Product at a Great Price" June 9, 2025 4.0 Great! The sofware is very robust and a great value at an affordable price. The customization options allow ua to easily brand our club and market our offering easily. Our families love having one spot to get all the information they need on what is offered, simple registering, and paying all in one location Pros I love the flexibility and high quality of the product. Our website has never looked better or more professional. I love the ease of creating programs, our families are able to register with little to no training and we can collect payments for almost everything we do easily and in one spot. Cons The reporting is very flexible, but it's also hard to learn, and I often have to create more than one report to gather all the information our board requests. I wish it was more user-friendly and all options were available on all report types so I could get the info I need in one report. I would prefer a report included in each program so you can easily download all the information collected for the program you are working with rather than having to go to the reports to create a report to gather what is needed.

Towards the end of our time with them we started noticing payment errors and that was the last straw Review Source Response from Uplifter June 13, 2025 Thanks so much for the detailed and thoughtful review!

Owner Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An overall perfect solution for sports clubs" June 11, 2025 4.0 Generally, uplifter has been an amazing experience for us. I found that when the company was smaller, things were easier to get done. When I put in support tickets now it takes a lot longer than it did 3 years ago. Pros I like how easy to use the general back side of the website is. Most admin functions are easy to figure out. Cons POS & discounts are quite a bit more complicated than they need to be. therefore our online store takes a long time to get up and running. Switched from [SmartRec](https://www.capterra.com/p/198905/SmartRec/) Cost and a canadian/local company option was preferred. Review Source Response from Uplifter June 13, 2025 Thanks so much for the kind words! We're glad Uplifter has been a great fit for your club and that the admin tools have been easy to use. We appreciate your feedback on the POS and discount setup - making those areas more user-friendly is definitely on our radar.

Also, if you didn’t receive your gift card, please don’t hesitate to reach out and we’ll make sure it gets sorted right away! CV Carey V.

June 6, 2025 5.0 My overall experience has been great with Uplifter. One of the best aspects is their HELP section. The response time for questions is amazing. In addition, they will follow up on any difficulties/questions/suggestions that you might have. Pros It's one of the most comprehensive sport management system I have ever worked with. The ability to perform class management tasks along with financial record keeping allows so much versatility. Cons There's very little NOT to like about Uplifter. I would like to see the addition of SMS communication capabilities. Switched from [Amelia](https://www.capterra.com/p/180818/IPsof-Amelia/) In the beginning due to our PSO switching systems. But very glad I decided to switch over. Review Source Response from Uplifter June 13, 2025 Thanks for the fantastic review, we love the title! We're so glad you've found Uplifter comprehensive and versatile, especially with both class and financial management. Great to hear the Help section and support team have made a difference too.

President Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Use this for Sport Organization Registrations" June 7, 2025 4.0 Ease of setup including a customizable website and automatic payment taking with proration make this a great option for sport organizations of any type. Some key things need focus like the accounting concern I mentioned above however this is overall a good product. Pros Ease of reporting memberships to our National Sport Organization Skate Canada via the link for member reconciliation and automatic submission. Cons No simple way to integrate import into Quickbooks, depending on your accounting method this could mean dual entry. Switched from [Google Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/176571/Google-Forms/) More functionality for membership maintenance Review Source Response from Uplifter June 13, 2025 Thanks so much for your thoughtful review!

Pros Uplifter has great customer service. Creating programs is very easy to do. Cons Calendar is not easy to differentiate. Cannot cancel a single session. Switched from [Captyn](https://www.capterra.com/p/219862/Captyn/) We needed a software that integrated a website and registration all in one place. Review Source Response from Uplifter October 17, 2024 Thank you, Alexis, for your review! We're glad to hear you've had a good experience and found our customer service helpful.

Communications Chair Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Communication channges " June 13, 2025 4.0 Pros Clean design and easy to see what you are changing with the website being changed on the face instead of being “coded” to the changes. Cons \- more font options for site - being able to save drafts in communications - wish the registration portion reset each season rather than saving some things and not others - being able to add people to the communication after starting the email instead of having to start all over again - mass deleting old pictures - sorting pictures into folders for easy finding Review Source SC Shannon C. Treasurer Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Uplifter….meh" June 5, 2025 3.0 The faq section is extensive, but can be overwhelming. Sometimes if you are looking for a simple answer you have to review a lot of material. Pros To run registration and website from one application. Having it able to run the payments is also a benefit. Cons It’s clumsy, not intuitive to new users, and often is missing helpful functionality. People registering their kids often call frustrated. Review Source Response from Uplifter June 6, 2025 Thanks for the honest feedback. We’re glad the all-in-one setup has been useful, but we hear you on the usability challenges, especially for new users. Simplifying the experience and making support resources easier to navigate are priorities for us. Appreciate you sticking with us and helping us improve. CD Chelsea D. President of Board Sports Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great addition to our club!" June 5, 2025 4.0 Overall it has been a benefit to our club. It has allowed us to have an online registration which has made those who wish to register happy. People do not want to come to in-person registrations anymore. It also links to a he Skate Canada website itself and registers everyone on there as well which saves a lot of time! Pros I like that it is synced up to the Skate Canada website so we don’t have to double enter registrations. Cons Some of it is quite confusing for the technologically challenged, so I guess I wish it was more straightforward. Review Source Response from Uplifter June 6, 2025 Thanks for the kind words! We’re so happy Uplifter has made registration easier for your club and your members, and that the Skate Canada sync is saving you time. We totally get that it can be tricky for less tech-savvy users, and we’re always looking for ways to simplify. Appreciate you being part of the Uplifter community! JC Judith C.

Training and explanations are always easy to understand. Pros Uplifter is very user friendly and the on line support staff are amazing. The support staff are always able to assist, willing to do ZOOM calls where I can share the screen, and very helpful with setting up programs, policies and discounts. The easy training language supports volunteers who are just wanting to make their clubs better. I would very strongly recommend Uplifter for use by other organizations. Cons I really have nothing that I dislike about Uplifter. Review Source Response from Uplifter October 17, 2024 Thank you, Judith, for your review!
