### "If you have a CMS - YOU NEED to look at this software"

September 16, 2022

5.0

These guys are amazing! They have an awesome vision, fully support the product. the new features are just BRILLIANT! It's what you get when you work with forward thinking people who have multi layered industry experience.

Pros

Activity Messenger is so much more than communication. We chose it because if looked like it would fully support our mobile strategy, we quickly learned it allowed us to do so much more. What is best is it was so easy to set up and start using, my last system took hours and multiple calls with "Specialists", I did this in 20 minutes and only had 2 questions which were answered in minutes.

Cons

Nothing really, everything in Activity Messenger helped me grow, the only thing I would like to see for my business is just being able to create an invoice would be great, but this is a single use.

### "Highly recommend"

April 9, 2022

5.0

Overall I find this product fantastic! I use it daily and I am always discovering new features that it offers. I also really like how easy it is to use and that you can customize it to suit your specific needs.

Pros

The pros of this software are that it is easy to use, extremely customizable and compliments any other software/websites you are using. I also enjoy the communication component as I find you can really connect with you clients using Activity Messenger.

Cons

The only con would be that for someone who is not tech-savvy the learning curve may be a bit longer however it is very easy to use once they learn the software and the functions available.

### "Gymnastique Québec"

May 24, 2023

4.0

Ce que je préfère avec Activity Messenger, c'est que l'équipe est très disponible. En plus de répondre à nos questions, ils sont prêts à tout pour trouver des solutions à nos problèmes et de nous aider à mieux faire notre travail.

Pros

Nous avons opté pour Activity messenger, car c'est une solution tout en un. Nous utilisons autant les formulaires pour l'inscription à des évènements, pour des rapports d'accident, des sondages, etc. Nous utilisons aussi la plateforme pour nos infolettres et la vente de billets pour nos compétitions.

Cons

Actuellement, il n'est pas possible de modifier le type de question une fois qu'elle ait créée dans la fonction Formulaire. Cela peut-être "tannant" lorsque la question est très longue et qu'il faut choisir un autre type.

Alternatives considered

[Mailchimp](https://www.capterra.com/p/110228/MailChimp/)

Reason for choosing Activity Messenger

Activity Messenger permettait d'utiliser une seule plateforme pour plusieurs utilités. De plus, le coût était moins élevé, comme la tarification de Mailchimp prend en compte le nombre d'abonnés et le nombre d'envoi par année.

### "Very happy with Activity Messenger!"

June 3, 2021

5.0

The biggest problem Activity Messenger has solved for us is electronic waivers. We only had a PDF version before which was very difficult for families. The automated tasks and integration with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] saves me so much time. I also like that I can reach out to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] if I have any issues, questions or feature suggestions and they respond right away.

Pros

We started using Activity Messenger for the ability to send our waivers electronically to our members. We had been looking for a way to do this, and having it link directly to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]is incredibly helpful. It is so much easier now to get waivers back quickly from families. We now love it for even more features; we can have our COVID daily questionnaires automatically sent to participants before their program by text, email or both; we set up automatic reminders for the start of programs; we have automatic happy birthday emails sent out to every member; and we can send and receive texts from families for immediate communications. Activity Messenger has made communicating with our members so much easier!

Cons

Right now, would just like a better way to view 2-way communications via text with members and receive notifications when we receive a text from a member. Would also like to be able to add more than one program to the automated tasks.

### "Staying in contact just got that much easier!"

April 13, 2022

5.0

When we found Activity Messenger they were still in the developing stages of their product. They were so open to diversifying their product to our needs that we fell in love with not just the product but the customer support from the team. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] regularly touched base to see how they could improve on the product to help us meet our specific needs as a non profit sports program. As time moved on, we had digital waivers, fundraising initiatives, qwerty codes for easy customer access and so much more!

Pros

This software is so affordable. As a non-profit, we are always wanting to be conscious of where we are putting out money. Activity Messenger offered so many features that integrated with other content management and creative software that we saved money by moving our forms, communications and waivers over to Activity Messenger.

Cons

At this point, I do not have anything to say about negative aspects of the software. There are none!

### "A solution for the smaller players"

April 28, 2022

4.0

This product is great and the support is wonderful. I have been nothing but pleased with the rollout of enhancements and the continued effort to make it better unlike some softwares.

Pros

It has almost if not all the functionality of programs like Amelia or Jackrabbit but with more flexibility on pricing.

Cons

It is still in development and at time clunky but the customer service is so fast that it makes up for it tenfold.

Reason for choosing Activity Messenger

The other two charge based on how many clients you have in the system. As a business that only teaches 2-5 year olds most of my clients are not lifetime customers so I would have to manually remove clients that are still interested in my information to pass on to other mommies but are no longer providing income to the business. Also, these others are not available to pause in your off season if you run a seasonal program like swimming or baseball.

### "A great alternative to Constant Contact"

November 27, 2021

5.0

Great. No need to look elsewhere. We use Smart Rec by Amilia and it has great synchronization, though it could be better, but it is ever evolving.

Pros

Cheaper than other big name software. The company is newer, and smaller. A rep is easily emailed with quick responses often with the answer or an update or added feature to fix or alleviate a problem. There are 3 useful pricing structure tiers great for several different sized organizations or business. It allows you to integrate with Canva.com and Pixel, both of which can be free.

Cons

The top tier pricing structure has all the best features. When customers reply to a text message I don't get great notifications. I wish they would actually reply to my phone instead.

Reason for choosing Activity Messenger

It has great synchronization We use Smart Rec by Amilia and the price compared to Constant Contact is better for smaller organizations.

### "Gymnastics BC Review of Activity Messenger"

October 12, 2021

5.0

It has been very positive. We are slowly transitioning form other platforms and making sure that our community is still receiving the support they need in the process. We are genuinely excited to continue exploring this partnership.

Pros

The adaptability of the form system allows us to manage registration information, convert legal documents to online formats, and to manage all of the completed documents in a database. With this system also facilitating an excel export function, it made Activity Messenger very appealing to use as a tool that takes in data that we need to safely store, analyze, and access in the future.

Cons

There are some gaps with specific features (e.g., specific question options on forms or features on the communication settings). However, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] have been extremely prompt, understanding and excited to help fill in the gaps. They have already addressed 8-10 specific gaps that we have experienced and developed features that were exactly what we were looking for.

### "Easy to use and fantasic customer service"

June 7, 2021

5.0

We have been able to streamline and enhance our communication with families and automate our attendance tracking. We also plan to move our covid health screening to Activity Manager, saving us the cost of a separate online system that we have been using for the past year.

Pros

Our three favorite features are the automated (scheduled) messages, ability to easily create custom forms, and the new attendance feature.

Cons

We would like more reporting, especially around attendance.

Reason for choosing Activity Messenger

Activity Messenger is integrated with our Registration Management System (with zero effort on our part) and addressed a number of business issues, not just our messaging.

### "Plateforme essentielle pour le développement et les communications de votre organisation"

April 29, 2023

4.0

J'apprécie vraiment la plateforme puisqu'elle permet de rassembler plusieurs fonctionnalités très importantes pour une organisation surtout en lien avec la gestion du personnel et les communications ainsi que la personnalisation des messages. De plus, elle nous permet également de générer des carnets numériques et des certificats sous format PDF pour nos cours de natation!

Pros

Très simple d'utilisation! Le micro-site est intéressant et permet de donner accès aux participants et aux instructeurs divers documents. L'onglet communication permet d'envoyer courriel et SMS et les possibilités sont élevées

Cons

Malgré le fait que la plateforme fonctionne sur tous les appareils fixes et mobiles, il serait intéressant de développer une application pour ceux et celles qui utilisent un téléphone cellulaire ou une tablette afin de rendre le tout plus accessible et facilité d'utilisation.

Reason for choosing Activity Messenger

Les nombreuses fonctionnalités, la facilité d'utilisation, l'équipe toujours présente pour répondre à nos questions et poursuivre le développement de la plateforme en prenant en considération nos besoins.

### "Activity Messenger "

September 16, 2022

5.0

Activity Messenger has allowed me and the team to stay organized by creating 3 different sections for each of the regions we are coordinating. It also simplifies the task when we are recruiting as our applicants fill out the forms according to their region and book their interviews based on the days and times we added on the calendar. Being able to communicate with the coaches and applicants through text message and email is also an aspect that was well thought out and is used often when communicating with them.

Pros

The way of communication and ease of scheduling interviews.

Cons

When we would like to permanently edit a workers information (phone number or email), we end up with the same employee twice.

### "A total game changer for us!"

October 6, 2020

5.0

Pros

Finally an app geared for sports and recreation . This has simplified and streamlined our communications while reducing administrative time by a lot. Since it also replaces mailchimp, we are actually saving money every month! The features activity messenger offers have become integral parts of our business especially during covid-19. We us it to quickly text/email a class cancellation, and have parents sign online waivers. We also use it to integrate our zoom online classes! If you are in the recreation and sports business, this is a no-brainer!

Cons

Honestly, I have not found anything yet when I compare to other products out there. This is such an upgrade from mailchimp because it's really geared for sports activities.

### "Useful and user-friendly"

November 3, 2020

4.0

As mentioned earlier, I would highly recommend this software. It is VERY easy to use (there are even reminders to save after making changes) and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] is always willing to help and is extremely responsive. It has moved us from administratively paper based, to virtual, very rapidly and during a time when it was extremely necessary. The fact that it has a direct link to Amelia is fantastic.

Pros

This software is extremely user friendly and very well suited for the administration of our gymnastics club. With the ever changing COVID-19 policies and procedures at the moment, Activity Messenger has has been invaluable due to it's ease of use, adaptability and low cost.

Cons

While using this software there have been times where we were looking for a function that was not currently included in the program. We contacted \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and every time he was either able to help us find the solution, or he very quickly created a solution.

### "Activity Messenger : a great partner in business "

May 4, 2022

5.0

Pros

The customisation that we can do and the true collaboration with Activity Messenger's team. The integration with our business processes is also great.

Cons

Nothing really, at Sports Montreal, we enjoy using this software. Maybe it would be great to be able to help new employees using it quickly by some videos or training in the software.

Reason for choosing Activity Messenger

For their ability to customize their software to our needs and for their effectiveness in general

September 10, 2021

5.0

We started using Activity Messenger in hopes it would be a time saver and it has been! We've been able to automate a handful of processes and ease up our class sign-in process with the forms and class reminder feature.

Pros

The Amilia integration is a huge pro for us when it comes to communicating with our class registrants and also for our digital class sign-in process. The set-up was extremely easy and, if we ever have questions and requests, customer service has responded almost immediately.

Cons

More template features would be helpful, especially for SMS.

Cons

Certains petits détails concernant des heures d'arrivées et de sorties multiples pour le camp de jour, mais rien de dramatique Sinon très ouvert à l'amélioration des produits avec ce que nous apportons comme suggestions

Activity Messenger makes communicating with your customer base a breeze while also making your customer feel like they are getting a communication that was uniquely made for them. It is easy to create and manage class lists.

Pros

Easy of use. Ability to use personalized placeholders. Ability to email and SMS simultaneously. Tracking and ability to resend to users who have not opened.

Cons

A test preview of email with placeholders activated before sending would be nice but isn't essential
