They have been so helpful with everything, including working with the credit card processors. I highly recommend esoft planner. They don't try to upsell or sell you something you don't need. They tailor it to you and your business needs. > > **Cons**: There are some nice to haves as far as functionality that I wouldn't mind being included in the eSoft system. But as far as value for the price, eSoft Planner is the way to go. They charge what they should for their product, not over priced, not under priced, but priced just right. > > I have nothing but great things to say about my experience. They have a great product for the price and I would urge anyone getting into the sports facility business to use them. ----- ### "Top Notch Software and Support" — 4.0/5 > **Brenton** | *February 17, 2020* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall, it is pretty easy to use. As someone that has never been tech-savvy, it is user-friendly and does not take long to learn how to use the software. Similarly, I can train staff members in a short period of time on how to use the software, which allows me to focus much of their training on other important areas that come with the job description at our facility. I like the ability to input only a few items on a users profile for quick setup purposes as well. I rarely fill in the other areas in the profile setup but do like the option of filling it out or not. Additionally, I love being able to reserve multiple facility locations and dates instead of going day by day to do it. > > **Cons**: Prior to working with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] on the issue, it was particularly frustrating dealing with different package types, but I later learned that a lot of that was set up incorrectly and it was unnecessary. The package types only applied to specific clients depending on which packages they purchased. She helped me change things around on our back end and set it up correctly. I really don't have any complaints about the software. As mentioned, it is fairly easy to use and does not present any issues for me. > > Experience has been great. I have been able to utilize financial reports to highlight how the business is growing and marketing reports to send camp and clinic information to clients in our software. I am still learning every day, but like utilizing the software to grow the buesiness. ----- ### "Helpful review" — 3.0/5 > **Todd** | *April 3, 2024* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Good product for the money. Helps with tax info also > > **Cons**: Not very user friendly. Users have trouble navigating the site initially > > Serves the purpose for my business. Both in scheduling and in bookkeeping. ----- ### "eSoft Planner is a TEN out of TEN\!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Amy** | *February 25, 2024* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: \[sensitive content hidden\] \!\!\! \[sensitive content hidden\] is hands down the most professional, knowledgeable, helpful, efficient, effective, swift, prompt, pleasant, wicked-smaht, etc etc customer support agent alive\!\!\! He makes navigating eSoft Planner seamless\!\! He is available 24/7/365 and responds immediately to texts even\!\! The information he provides has alleviated any and all "self-induced-stress" due to "user-error" every single time\!\!\! The software has taken even our business's complicated scheduling debacle and made it user-friendly and workable\! It is with zero reservation that we recommend eSoft Planner to Power Your Passion\!\! > > **Cons**: ....I am a busy business owner and I do not have time to sit and THINK up an answer for this one\!\!\! I love eSoft Planner\!\! > > I would describe my overall experience with eSoft Planner as a 10/10\!\! IMPECCABLE\!\! ----- ### "Excellent software for multifunctional facilities" — 5.0/5 > **Julie** | *March 22, 2019* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a side job, I helped schedule appointments using esoft for a sport facility, and I loved how simple and easy it was to use. I liked the way the software notified our customers to inform them of their upcoming appointments. I also liked the way customers could book their own appointments in the system without having to call the establishment. Customers can easily add money to their account using a credit card. It's that simple\! > > **Cons**: What I liked least about the software was that our trainers had to block off a cage in order to put in their availability. I wish the trainers could have their availability posted without having it take up several blocks of time. I'd like to have multiple trainers available at a certain time, but if I do that, then each trainer would have to be booked in their own cage, and that just doesn't seem efficient. > > My overall experience with eSoft has been wonderful. I like the way eSoft keeps track of our customers yearly memberships and prepaid rentals. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2070035/esoft-planner?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2070035/esoft-planner) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
