### "The best registration site around"

September 10, 2024

5.0

My company moved over to RaceEntry a few years ago from another platform and haven't looked back I continue to tell others about the site for their events and plan to do so far into the future.

Pros

Ease of use from both race director and registrant Support The ability to so much from one central location visuals of the page is professional and makes the process of registering straight forward.

Cons

The only real issue I have with the site is that there are some things that can get set up on the page and if you copy it to the next year it has required me to request assistance to remove it.

### "\[sensitive content hidden\] at RaceEntry has top notch customer service (rate him 12 out of 10)"

February 27, 2024

5.0

The system is easy to use and \[sensitive content hidden\] is a wonderful rep for Race Entry

Pros

Even someone like myself that isn’t very tech savvy can navigate through and figure out how to set up my various registration sites. If I’m not sure how to do something; \[sensitive content hidden\] is always there to help. He even answered an emergency call from me on Father’s Day from the top of a mountain when I accidentally did something that shut down my registration.

Cons

What’s not to like?! If I have to pick something, it is hard to edit pricing.

Reason for choosing Race Entry

N/A already answered this question. There is nothing else to say here

The auto fill did not find the 2 products I used before Event Brite had terrible customer serve for both the participants and myself. I like that I can “hide” a few extra dollars in the processing fees for my company because your fees are reasonable from the start. I like that the sign up looks just like my website and not a third party vendor Active.com gave me very bad advertising advice so they could fill their own pockets. They had me advertise 8 months prior to a fun run event when we should have waited until more like 6 weeks prior

August 23, 2023

5.0

I enjoy working with \[sensitive content hidden\] even though he is an avid hunter and enjoys shooting fuzzy animals. In Disney's world, he would be a villain. In my world, he's a rockstar!

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] is highly responsive to customer service needs and tries to find a solution to any problem you have.

Cons

Some of the platform programming has limitations. Customization can take time.

### "Great Service"

January 28, 2020

5.0

Pros

The staff at Race Entry always provides great service and are always looking for ways to help out.

Cons

I would like it better if the user could upload lists of people rather than having to get their staff to do it for us which creates an extra step.

Review Source

Response from Race Registration Online

February 5, 2020

Thanks for the review. We actually use to allow event organizers to upload their own participants, but we found that the complication of the feature lead to frustration. Historically it has been faster for us to do this for our customers than to teach all the possible weird file issues that may need to be addressed depending on where your file came from. We just did not want users to be frustrated with how hard it is to upload if it is due to a file issue that might get blamed mistakenly on our software. We would rather us get frustrated by a bad file than our customers. This may be to sweeping of a policy, but we will take your feedback into consideration. Thanks for the review!

Overall, I really enjoy using race entry. It has been a big benefit for my company.

Pros

### "Best customer service"

September 7, 2018

5.0

The marketing tools are impressive - the referral system and the fundraising options really help attract participants. Most importantly, the customer service is five star. I think I am a mess to deal with, but Customer service agent is persistent and patient. he is quick to respond and resolve. You can't get that kind of personal attention from other sites.

Pros

This is by far the most attractive system out there. The registration site is bright and attractive as well as being user friendly. The reports are easy to pull us, the options for marketing and fundraising are the best I have seen on the market.

Cons

Can't think of any. I have not found anything I don't like. I am not kidding.

November 13, 2023

Great experience because of \[sensitive content hidden\]. He will continue to make it a great system for us.

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] is always available and has a ton of patience with me!

### "Exceptionally great customer service"

March 17, 2020

5.0

Superior service. They make it easy for me.

Pros

The fee is lower and the service is way better than Active.com. Emailed questions and requests are addressed immediately.

Cons

I have an idea for a feature: For annual races such as the LL, create standings with course records and division records. I am sure fast runners would like to see their name on top of the list.

Reason for choosing Race Entry

Response from Race Registration Online

March 24, 2020

Thanks for the great review, and for the idea. I agree that people would love to see course records. It probably would require event directors to put a little extra effort in adjusting records, because we would only know fastest times for what was uploaded into our system. There may be past race results outside the system. I do like the idea, and we may implement this in the future.

### "Race Entry ease of use"

September 4, 2018

5.0

Pros

Race Entry is very easy to use. It is extremely easy to use year over year, I love the fact that i can just copy last years race entry, registration and marketing pages and just update them to this years information. The graphs that they have that show timelines from previous years of when people signed up are very helpful in our e-mail marketing campaigns.

Cons

It was not as intuitive the first year i used it, there were too many options that were not spelled out clearly, but after just a little practice it became very easy to use. I am glad that I had a Sales/Customer Service person who walked me though all the features the first year.

### "Race Entry"

September 4, 2018

5.0

Experience has been amazing. In particular customer support has been exceptional from day one, as he even answered a late night text message on the eve of our race.

Pros

It just makes everything about the race so much easier to handle. Being able to use promo codes at various levels is a huge plus for us when working with our sponsorship packages. Being able to copy a race from one year to the next is also very convenient since very few things change for our race.

Cons

Haven’t found any issues. Some of the formatting on the registration page with background colors can look bad sometimes though.

January 24, 2023

5.0

I needed a decent amount of handholding last year and this year, getting braver to try new features. \[sensitive content hidden\] has been instrumental in helping me grow our features and is always available no matter how small the question is!

Pros

I had never planned a race until last year. Now I've more comfortable with it and its so simple!

Cons

I wish we could customize our URL. Maybe we can and I just don't know??

### "Software has been exceptionally easy to implement, administer, and user friendly on the front end. "

February 21, 2018

5.0

Pros

Our account manager, has been phenomenal in responding to our questions and assisting with any needs that we have with the software. His hospitality and willingness to assist at any time has elevated our experience with Race Entry. The platform is very user friendly on the front end for our participants and we have received very positive feedback in regards to Race Entry in comparison to the previous platform we used. The registration pricing is competitive and the donation fees are good. The software allows us to sale merchandise during the sign-up process which helped increase our overall merchandise sales for the year by 130%

Cons

Changes that can be made to the front end are quite basic; however, they fulfill every need we have and can still be influenced enough to present aesthetically to the customer. We saw our online donations go down when we began to use Race Entry due to a button that allows a participant to move through the donation page quickly without having to scroll through the page.

September 7, 2018

Jonathan thank you for your review. We use to not have the button at the top of the charitable donation page, but we had races complain that they wanted a quicker way for people to register that did not want to donate. Due to your feedback we have now made it so that you have a setting that you can pick if you want a continue button at the top or not. You can force people to scroll to the bottom as you desired now. Contact Jared and he can give you a quick demo of this.

### "Small Organization Fundraiser Use"

September 7, 2018

5.0

Love it! Would 100% use it again.

Pros

It was super helpful with organizing registrations and made keeping track of the registration funds so simple.

Cons

The only thing I would change about the software is to make the interface a bit more customizeable. We wanted to incorporate some student developed design in our portal but weren't able to.

Very quick to respond to needs, and support emails. We have been very pleased to use Race Entry for our needs.

Pros

Race Entry is intuitive. Features are easy to find and work the way you would expect them to work.

### "Race Entry review"

September 4, 2018

5.0

Pros

General ease of use and number of functions. The ability to create a race map (although not really possible for trail runs) is a nice feature

Cons

No option for secondary charges/changes after registration (i.e. letting a participant update their profile or change races if allowed. Sometimes these changes incur a fee and there is no way to let the participant make these changes or pay these fees within the platform. Changes can be made on the backend, but it would be very useful to allow participants to manage this themselves. Perhaps allowing them to set up “profiles” would allow this?

Review Source

Response from Race Registration Online

September 7, 2018

Ian- Thanks for the review. If I understand correctly you are wanting people to be able to switch between categories and charge the difference in price and possibly add a fee? If this is correct you can set that up in on the transfers page which can be found on your race dashboard. As far as the maps you can actually make maps for trail runs if you turn on the "off road" mode. This will let you draw your map on trails or even over water if you have a triathlon. If these solutions above don't resolve your concerns reach out to us with some more specifics at: support@raceentry.com

For a small non-profit race like ours, this platform has been the perfect solution.

Pros

The platform is easy to set up, very easy to use, it puts all of your information in one easy-to-access place, and it gives easy access to all of your timing people and other vendors. I wouldn't use anything else!

Cons

Cons

There was a racer who paid twice, and we tried to contact you but no one responded and we had to deal with refund including the money you received. I would like to be able to print off a list with the racer's name, age, shirt size, and race so we could highlight check ins.

Tabitha- Sorry you had a troublesome experience with the refunds. In the future if you need to do a refund that can be done easily by going to your view participants page, and then click the name of the runner. On that page there is a refund link right at the top of the page. You can pick the amount to refund. As far as the check in options we have a check in ap, we have a check in page on the site, and you can download and print your participants as you had wanted. It sounds like it may be a good idea for us to set up a quick call to show you how to do a few of the things you had wanted to do. We are happy to help.
