### "We have been using this software for 5+ years. We couldn't stay in business without it."

July 26, 2018

5.0

Time savings, cost savings. Can use anywhere I have an Internet connection. Frees up time from our offices having to schedule over the phone and we can spend more time with prospective customers.

Pros

We used a scheduling only software at one time, but quickly outgrew it. Driving School Software was only slightly more cost but does so much more! We needed an all in one software in order to open additional locations and be able to run all locations from any office. We register, receive payment, track classroom hours, track BTW hours, track State Testing, and final underage Certification. All tracking keeps us compliant with State requirements. Scheduling students is FAST! Creating open appointments and changing them is a breeze. Looking up students and and using quickviews for a brief overview is a real time saver. Automated e-mails and sms, plus we can send single sms directly to student and/or parents.

Cons

Although it's fast, moving through different screens for student accounts, i.e., billing on one screen, enrollment on another, general information on another; can be cumbersome, but not a real Con, just could be better. The developers are addressing these issues at this time and we are eagerly looking forward to the enhancements.

### "Likely to Recommend "

October 23, 2024

5.0

Overall great so far, Specially want to mention about fast service when you need tech/problem/task support from team and if not for some reason Anatolji is highly responsive and will resolve any issue.

Pros

The software is covering all our driving school needs, clients going all digital that saves a lot of time and giving opportunity to deal with business development rather paper hassle. Like full client management software, marketing and financial reports.

Cons

I found that some feathers in the old admin are just more convenient rather than in the new admin. Perhaps, in Old Admin "web enrolments" and "Task" interface are bold once you logged into the software, so you see that new registered, task, messages, uploaded files right away rather in the new admin you need particularly navigate to. That's my least favorite and I am confident that other long time clients experience the same. I hope developers will listen and will work on the interface change as described.

### "A Game-Changer for My Driving School"

April 12, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Driving School Software has been very positive. It’s streamlined my day-to-day operations, saved me a significant amount of time, and allowed me to focus more on my students. The system is easy to use, and the support team has been responsive and helpful whenever I’ve needed it.

Pros

Easy to use, saves a ton of time on registrations and communication, and lets me focus on my students instead of paperwork.

Cons

So far, I haven’t run into any negatives. Anytime I’ve had a question or issue, DSS has been quick to help find a solution.

### "Thank you \[sensitive content hidden\] & DSS!"

September 23, 2024

5.0

\[sensitive content hidden\] not only catered to my schedule and business needs but also played a key role in streamlining our operations to better serve both our customers and employees. Her responsiveness and dedication, particularly when my secretary and I encountered challenges, were truly impressive. Thanks to her swift assistance, we were able to resolve issues quickly and maintain smooth business operations. I cannot overstate the impact that Driving School Software, combined with \[sensitive content hidden\] expertise, has had on our business growth. We look forward to continuing our partnership and highly recommend both \[sensitive content hidden\] and the software to anyone looking to enhance their business processes.

Pros

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for \[sensitive content hidden\] and her exceptional support in helping me navigate and understand the comprehensive features of Driving School Software.

Cons

If there is something you don't like about the software they can likely change it to accommodate your business needs.

Saves time and money, what else could you ask for?

Cons

### "Best Website Support"

December 13, 2024

5.0

Their team of customer service is really the best of any company that I have worked with. I hope the owner knows and keeps it that way. I know of many other companies that got greedy and moved their customers service to Philippines or other countries only go to go bankrupt a year later. Parents who sign up for classes and we as owners don't have time to waste with untrained staff overseas that only make problems worst. So I hope this teams stays this way.

Pros

My name is Kam from The Hills Driving School LLC located here in Los Angeles. This company's customer service is unbelievably good. I want to thank \[sensitive content hidden\] they've been always so helpful and patience. I wish I had them work at my company. Their new portal is really nice and intuitive too.

Cons

I also work with another software company for my backup website but they don't even come close to DrivingSchool Software. So really I have nothing negative to say...which is rare these days.

Been with DSS since 2009. Excellent experience! Very helpful customer service. Couldn't do business without them.

Pros

It's very easy to use and always changing to adjust to new rules and regulations.

Cons

It takes a little getting used to but what software doesn't?!? Once you get to know it...you'll be glad you did!

September 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

As a driving student using this easy-to-use software it greatly helped my instructors keep tabs on my progress.

Cons

I feel like the main menu's layout could have been more intuitive in regards to what tabs need to be accessed most frequently.

December 4, 2020

5.0

Very knowledgeable about the driving school industry and knows what's needed. They will customize to meet your needs. I love that it keeps me organized with my customers' files and accounts.

Pros

Organizes my online sales and customer information, the help desk is quick and efficient, I have someone to rely on to help me with customized reports and settings. I'm not alone in trying to figure things out with the database.

Cons

I"m a graphic designer and I create websites using Wix.com. I like being able to design and update my own site at a moment's notice. This software is not as compatible with wix.

### "Danube Reveiw"

August 7, 2018

5.0

I have been running an auto school for well over a decade. The convenience, and ease of the Danube system has made my life SO MUCH EASIER! I would endorse this system to any auto school owner/manager looking to streamline operations.

Pros

The online scheduling for road and class time has taken hours of work time off of my office staff. At the same time provided a convenient scheduling option for our customers. The RMV reporting system is a game changer! Talk about saving hours of work time!!!! Great customer service and technical support as well!

Cons

I have not run across many negative aspects to the program. As with any system, nothing is 100% perfect. But nothing jumps out as specific ongoing issue.

February 6, 2019

5.0

This software has allowed us to manage all of our students and give students The option of scheduling their own appointments online. We have already taken advantage of the plethora of reports available to help us increase our sales, and most of all they have excellent customer service! The training was quick and easy, but whenever we have a question Anatolij and his team are super quick to respond to our needs!

Pros

Ease of use Self scheduling for our student drivers. Great customer service.

Cons

We have implemented this system at the beginning of the year and we have yet to have any complaints. CSR is open to any suggestions that we have to Improve their product, which I really value.

From the moment we open the software makes our life easier. We see in one glance what everyone's day looks like on the calendar, we can see the upcoming classes, are they full, how many spaces are left, send a mass message to the class if needed, place a message on the webpage, just about every single function of our day...is done on the database.

Pros

It has made the over all task of running our company a smoother process because everything is in one central package and place now!

Cons

I have not found any feature that I don't like, and that is a honest statement.

### "Longtime User"

March 20, 2019

5.0

Our Driving School has been using this software for 10 years. We were a little hesitant at the start, as none of us had strong tech skills and we were a little afraid of everything being in the "cloud." Also, the program had so many components that it was a little overwhelming at the beginning. But our concerns did not last long, as we found out that we could limit our use to one component at a time and keep adding to our usage as we became more comfortable. We can't imagine surviving without this software. Every employee in our school from the instructors to the master schedule controller to the bookkeeper use this one software program on a daily basis. It is the "central core" that keeps us all together, even though we live miles apart and do not connect at a central office on a daily basis.

Pros

Our team highly values that the software is all-inclusive and everything that we used to do totally on a paper schedule/log book is incorporated in the program. We like that is is Driving School Specific and not just a general appointment scheduling software. We appreciate that the software has "grown" over the years, responding to recommendations from the Driving School Industry.

Cons

There is not much to dislike! In the early years, it took a few days to receive a response to a question/concern. But now, it is apparent that this problem has been addressed, as the response time from the Support team is very fast.

October 17, 2022

5.0

Pros

The customer service is always so helpful; they even offer live zoom call meetings to address any questions we have.

Cons

Honestly, any time we have mentioned an added feature we would like or a tweak to an existing feature, it is always passed along to the development team; a credit to their customer service.

### "The Best Driving School Software"

June 12, 2020

5.0

Increased revenue due to payment tracking, Students are able to read policies at the payment screen before signing up.

Pros

I am not sure about other software, but all I can say is I will never trade Danubenet for anything. Customer Service is excellent. They respond to issues in a timely manner. I could be anywhere in the US and still take care of student scheduling with no issues. I tried scheduling students using google calendar and spreadsheets. It was Headache. I could imagine countless amount of monies I lost through improper documentation of payments and transactions. With this software payment tracking, student alerts and appointment cancellations are easily done with the click of a button.

Cons

All I am waiting for is students can download the app on their phone, but with student log in at My schools website, there is no difference. This is the best by far.

Reason for choosing DrivingSchoolSoftware.com

Their customer service rep \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] was a sweet voice and patient to walk you through initial set up.

### "Have been using the program going on 3-years. Very easy to maneuver and great technical support."

July 20, 2018

5.0

Works good with my website. Calendar reminders, reports, managing accounts receivables and receipts, rosters, attendance and will be using drive time reports soon. Ease of doing business is great!

Pros

The support team is what makes this software. They are right there to assist and make the adjustments to the needs of the driving school. I had left Danube for another vendor's software and found out I made a mistake. The other software was the same for every school customer they had and if I needed something specific for my school, it could not be done as it would affect the program for all their customers. Danube is not limited and I was back to Danube within 2-months. " You don't know what you've got until it is gone". I can generate the data for my state's specific reports, I can create excel spreadsheets and have fields that assist me with proactive marketing. Emailing customers is easy and sorting out what receipts came in for specific locations is vital when having to do gross receipts tax with different tax rates.

Cons

Gross receipts don't match up monthly with that of the merchant account because they don't have the same dates when taken into our school.

### "Update to a past review - truly appreciate everyone at DSS."

January 27, 2022

5.0

I have grown to appreciate the staff and ownership of DSS. I will be honest, I have been a hard customer to work with, but through it all DSS has remain very professional and patient with me.

Pros

The staff goes above and beyond. New helpful features are being added to the software which makes life much easier. I look forward to the new features and developments that they have. Easy to use on the student side, instructors like it and administration couldn't live without it. I could not imagine our company without DDS. Highly recommend them! Keep up the good work.

Cons

Like every growing company comes with growing pains. I wish there were a dozen Jennifiers, Jenns, Clares, and Ashleys at DDS to meet the growing demand.

### "Great software"

June 7, 2019

5.0

You send executives an e mail and they respond very quickly.

Pros

Once you take the time to learn it it's so easy to use. There's nothing this software can't do to help you cut down on office man hours, paper, stamps. no more arguing with parents and students over no show, or late charges. the software will put the charge into there account if they cancel with in 24 hours. even if they don't cancel you can put the charge anyway. that's because students make there own lessons on line. schedules very easy to control you just print them out everyday and that's it. This software will make you'r school run so much smother. you should not be without it.

Cons

It's not what i liked least about it. I'ts more that we live in a {i wan't it right now world} you need to invest the time learning about it, to get the most out of it.
