    With the busy club environment and wearing many hats ABC's technical and client management team makes the member management tasks easy.

    Pros

    The learning tools and resources for navigating the software makes training new staff effortless! As the business has evolved we have been able to configure the software to support our growing offerings.

    Cons

    In comparison to other platforms we have used we have yet to be disappointed in the capabilities of Datatrak.

    Overall they were a B+. Stable software, great up-time and availability, good reporting. For our single gym the price was pretty steep and when we renewed they did not have any options. Ultimately we found a system that met our needs at a much lower cost for the software and CC fees.

    Pros

    It is a very stable platform with great reporting capabilities. It manages members and payments seamlessly. Although it should since it is the bread and butter of the software.

    Customer support was 24-7 and fantastic. Very quick to respond and very knowledgeable.

    Cons

    The stable platform is based on an older technology so customizations or changes are very difficult. Upgrades were promised based on a new browser based system but they were delayed endlessly. The browser is just a "skin" over the legacy system.
    It worked for our small 24-7 so this is not really a criticism, just a fact if you are looking for cutting edge technology.
    The monthly fees were high and they had add on fees for processing and "system maintenance" fees

    Utilized DataTrak in health club setting for membership base.

    Reviewed on 11/10/2017

    Pros

    DataTrak is extremely reliable program, there has never been a loss of data and you are informed in advance of any down time for maintenance, which is rare. The software is a bit dated aesthetically, but it functions very well. Their customer service is great. I managed a 24 hour facility and members would swipe in with their keytag. When our door stopped functioning, support was on the issue right away and extremely helpful. I've called multiple times about member issues and every time the customer service team responds quickly and always has a positive attitude.

    Cons

    The only time this software is difficult is when you're dealing with reporting. Creating or editing reports can be time consuming and is not user friendly.

    it's okay- i am not sure if there is a better/ faster platform out there but if there was, i would love to try it out!

    Pros

    I like that it is able to hold all of the information from our members for all of our gyms. We have a lot of locations and you are able to locate any member from any location

    Cons

    it is super slow!!! i know it is usally processing a million things at once but we constantly have it freeze up on us when we are in the middle of something. also, when it freezes we are unable to basically anything since all of our business goes through there
