"Well, it was one year ago that I became reacquainted with Mark Mahoney and his Jackrabbit Class biz software. At the time, I was mildly reticent about the fact it was web-based, yet in August, Kids First decided to make the 'big switch' due largely to Mark's integrity and my 'gut feel' that Jackrabbit was going to the 'program of the future.' During the data transfer, things went seamlessly despite our large enrollment."
"Three months ago, my concerns about being web-based COMPLETELY EVAPORATED when our in-house server went down and it took our IT guy two weeks to re-construct our server data. During it all, Jackrabbit never missed a beat; had we been on server-based software I cannot imagine the problems for our Company. Now, I am absolutely convinced it is better the have the professionals doing my backup (by the same company that handles and backs-up of the large global companies, using the same redundancies including backups in multiple cities in case of a regional disaster) ! "
"What about the day-to-day 'usability' of Jackrabbit? For 9 months the Jackrabbit Support Team has worked closely with the Kids First crew to make the enhancements necessary to handle a club of 5100 enrollment. Two weeks ago, at the May BOOT CAMP, when asked how she liked Jackrabbit, Mary, Kids First's Customer Service Department Leader responded by saying "I am ecstatic. It is fast and so easy to learn for my crew." Those were the words I was waiting to hear and the reason I am decided it was time to write this testimonial."
"Do you want a speedy, stable, safe, easy to learn and use, future-oriented program owned, written and supported by a team of people with impeccable integrity? Then may I strongly suggest Jackrabbit Class."

| “In reviewing class management programs, we focused on three key objectives: ease of use, features and company integrity. Jackrabbit has an easy-to-use technology solution that can satisfy the wide range of technology skills in a diverse franchise system. Their web-based program has 95% of the features we were seeking. In addition, the management of Jackrabbit is committed to providing top-quality customer service and honest, integrity-driven interactions. We did not find another company that inspired this level of confidence.”

The incremental cost and ability of the software to grow with your business is without peer in the industry.”

"JackRabbit Class is essential for a busy, multi-tasking Dance Studio Owner/Teacher. What a relief to finally have a system that does it all! I have used other systems and stressed trying to back-up, load updates and get support when I needed it. Now I have it all and it's much easier than just one of those tasks! JackRabbit Class is in a league of it's own. Thanks!" |

"Over the past few days we have been busy trying to get our business squared away to open our second location. Although I knew the benefit of having a good software package to manage our students this past few days I have found the benefit to be one I could never live without!
I have found myself going to your software program to access data when doing our new student calendar, newsletter, hiring our first true employee, filling out forms for our county and city locations and sending letters to our students.
As with anything in life there is always room for improvement, a hard lesson to understand but one we stress on our students daily. You all have done a fantastic job and I am a very satisfied customer. I look forward to the improvements but I want to thank you both for your efforts. The money we have spent so far has been worth thousands in revenue! And countless hours saved!
Thanks and keep up the hard work. I look forward to the improvements in the skills section and eventually some of the other improvement ideas we have sent you. As always let me know if I can be of any assistance. If you need a group to "Beta" test any new features just let me know as I would be happy to assist."

"It is my privilege to tell you about my experience getting a new class management system from Jackrabbit. Every aspect of Jackrabbit has dramatically improved my swim school operations!
Summer Registration results:
- Within 2 weeks, 50% of our classes were filled.
- Parents registered and paid online easily.
- Dramatic reduction in needed phone calls and discussions. Saved many staff hours and trouble.
- Instant E-mail confirmations when we processed the registrations
- Waivers already signed and stored
If anyone is considering updating or changing to a new system, please take a look at Jackrabbit. I checked it out from Jeff Metzger's staff and another swim school. It is everything I could ever wish to have to simplify my swim school administrative operations. Now I can concentrate on the area I love- the kids!"

"It's very easy to use and adapt to. You guys kill Gymsoft. I love the "Executive Dashboard" initial page which displays the status of enrollment and account receivables. I sell just about everything I believe in, especially which has helped me to streamline my company or my life. Thanks for creating a fantastic solution." |

| After two weeks of using the Jackrabbit Class we at Full Out Cheer Academy are loving it. It's easy to understand, not like the OTHER software that even after a year we still had trouble using it. We really look forward to using all the features that Jackrabbit Class has to offer us. |

"I have evaluated MV Gym and Get Physical. While the programs provided some useful features, they just didn't feel complete to me. In addition, I was not pleased with the user interface of the programs. I took a quick look at
ProSchool, which at a glance seemed like a good program but was not affordable for someone like me with a very small gym."
"I chose Jackrabbit class because it is a complete system. All of the spreadsheets and queries I created using Excel to keep track of the business are already available in Jackrabbit in one place, even the Birthday List. I still have the option of exporting data to Excel if needed. I like the look and feel of the program. I especially enjoy the ability to be able to access my information online from anywhere, anytime. Most importantly, the monthly payment makes it affordable. Honestly, I was sold at the initial data conversion...even with the minor issues we had."
"Thanks a lot for making one of my tasks as a new gym owner easier." |

| "I want to let all the studios and gyms to know how pleased I am with the Jackrabbit Class program. I have found it easy to read, easy to work and above all, very user friendly. This has made MY job somewhat quicker and more efficient. I can highly recommend this program to anyone who chooses to have interest in this. Thanks once again for developing such a thorough program." |

| "Until Jackrabbit Class we pretty much did everything manually. We used QuickBooks for tracking our customer's payments, tuition and purchases, but individual class rosters were set-up in Microsoft Word and had to be manually updated each month before printing them. If we needed info on a student or their family, we had to search through our enrollment forms. We have 2 locations so we had to make a copy of the enrollment forms of the students attending at the 2nd location. Our managers and instructors had very little, if any, access to student and customer information before Jackrabbit Class. Checking to see if a student was making up too many classes was a long and time consuming job, searching through every class roster. Tracking the number of students in each class involved reviewing each class roster daily and manually counting each student then forwarding that count to the lady that does our placements. I could go on, but I think you get the picture. Jackrabbit Class has put everything about our classes, students and their families at our staff's fingertips. It has freed up time to develop new programs and improve the ones we have. We shopped around, but found Jackrabbit Class to be the best and most affordable class and customer data management system available. " |

| "The Jackrabbit Class system is a very powerful but intuitive system to use. The ability to log in from any computer anywhere without the need for installing additional software or buying additional licenses is one of its greatest advantages. I imported my data from another system via the Jackrabbit Class spreadsheet import feature and was up and running in a matter of minutes. The software is simple to use and provides us with powerful management reports. This system will revolutionize the way we manage our customers!" |
