## Reviews

### "Lifesaver\!  Must Have\!\!" — 5.0/5

> **Makenzie** | *September 3, 2016* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Even though I am not at all technologically savvy I feel like a strong business person when I can email and print out professional documents and have everything for my dance parents at the touch of a button.
> 
> **Cons**: well... it's not really a con in the long run  but this system does a LOT more than I think I need for my small studio but the more I use the program the more I utilize it's functions.
> 
> I started my dance business without the The Studio Director and thought I could do everything on my own...I WAS WRONG\!   In only a few short months of struggling and feeling overwhelmed I purchased The Studio Director and everything fell into place.  I immediately shared this program with our sister studio and even though they have been in business over 25 years they started using it and love it too.

### "Hands down, best customer service\!" — 5.0/5

> **Renee** | *July 16, 2016* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The class schedule is displayed beautifully, I have easy access to all kinds of reports, my teachers can input their attendance and costume measurements directly onto the system, and the system will calculate costume sizes according to the vendor size charts. I can then run a report of what costumes in what sizes and quantities that I'm ordering from each vendor. This is just a very small sampling of what the program can do to simplify my work. There are also many checks and balances on the program so that, for instance, costumes are not ordered for a student who is taking class but not performing.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like how I have to enter a character for all the prospect info such as address and phone if I don't have it. But this is a very minor issue. The only other "con" I have is that if you sign up for the 2 week trial, you're just going to have to have it\! It's just that awesome\!
> 
> I researched several dance studio software programs, and this one was the most comprehensive AND user-friendly. I received amazing customer service both before and after my purchase. Not only was I walked through my specific questions, but when I explained some of my studio needs, the rep I spoke with, Peggy, came up with a custom-made solution to my wishes. She knew the business well and was able to give me great advise and walk through the pros and cons of different ways to set up the software for my specific business needs. Her help was above and beyond what was to be expected.

### "Full functional, but not easy to use" — 4.0/5

> **Casey** | *November 1, 2017* | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Awesome range of features, from class scheduling to automatic billing. Recital planning features are a bonus, too. Plus online registering is a needed feature in this day and age when parents want to be able to do everything online.
> 
> **Cons**: More expensive than other similar programs.&#10;Hard to learn/use - very cumbersome with multiple steps for each task.

-----

### "Good experience" — 4.0/5

> **Rachel** | *November 2, 2017* | Fine Art | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is easy to use. My customers can enroll and pay online at anytime. I like the reports for business.
> 
> **Cons**: Not enough options for credit card processing. It is too expensive especially when charged extra by the Studio Director. Wish there was also a way to set up two seasons differently at the same time. Really wish you could put in a minimum credit payment for it to process.
> 
> Keeps my classes and enrollments organized and customers can access at anytime and pay

### "My overall experience with The Studio Director has been very positive\!" — 5.0/5

> **Keara** | *August 10, 2017*
> 
> **Pros**: The most outstanding thing about The Studio Director is their customer service. They are thorough, polite, helpful, and knowledgable. I get an email response typically within just a few minutes of asking my questions and the response includes step by step instructions on how to proceed. Their advice is invaluable.
> 
> **Cons**: Being a performing arts studio that offers both group classes and private lessons, my main complaint would be that I have to create 2 different seasons for both. Because of this, I have to do a little extra work when I want to send a group email or offer discounts to students who take classes in both seasons.
