| "Before Jackrabbit, I was not using any type of software
system. It was so easy to learn the program through your
online manual, video help, and customer support. I am really
impressed with the amount of enhancements that are made to
the software. You are always improving and adding new
helpful ways to make your program even better. The biggest
help has been online registration! This has saved us hours
of paperwork. As a studio we look much more organized,
professional, and definitely stand out from other local
competitors. Thank you for all that you do!" |

"Well, it was one year ago that I became reacquainted
with Mark Mahoney and his Jackrabbit 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." |

| “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.” |

"How can I put into words the advantages of Jackrabbit
for our business. I was a person who used the individual
card systems for 25 years and did not want to let go of it.
Switching to Jackrabbit was a very hard decision for me,
however, it has been the best decision I have ever made. "
"Enrolling students is a breeze and saves so much time! Time
saved by the office staff is such a bonus for us. You can
track students with the push of a button. You can see all
their transactions with the push of a button. I think one of
the best features for our facility, because we have so many
venues, is the Payment Category tracking. It allows you to
see the income from each venue instantly. Another feature is
that is automatically puts in the discount for multiple
classes or families. No figuring this out manually anymore.
What a time saver!"
"The newest feature we are taking advantage of is the
on-line registration. Letting parents enroll their children
on-line saves the office staff inputting that information.
You have your clients billing information and can receive
their payment by credit card instantly. We have parents on
auto pay and the first of the month we push one button and
they all are paid automatically. This is WONDERFUL. We have
also started using the attendance and make-up features of
Jackrabbit. It is so much easier to schedule make-ups and
absences. Record tracking is a breeze."
"If you have not tried this system..you MUST. We love it. "

| “At Buckeye Gymnastics, with over 2,700 students enrollment at most times during the year, we have to have class management software that can handle a huge load, adapt to a variety of situations and circumstances, and generate the reports we need. And it has to work easily, quickly and reliably. We looked for over a year before we settled on Jackrabbit. We have used jack Rabbit for two sessions and it has exceeded our expectations and I would recommend Jackrabbit for anyone in the youth sports industry.” |

| “After much study as to what database to go with, I had to pick Jackrabbit! It has more features and reports than the others AND the best service. Twice our previous computer system crashed in the middle of registration. With dance recitals, swim registration, educational preschool, and a large gymnastics school, and all the other programs we offer, we had to go to an online registration system. Our customers were asking for it and it was just time. Thanks Jackrabbit!” |

| “After reviewing many software products over the past 10
years, it is clear that Jackrabbit is the #1 choice. Its’
easy-to-use features are perfect for the entire range of
business, whether you are a start-up club or a large,
full-service children’s activity center. The incremental
cost and ability of the software to grow with your business
is without peer in the industry.” |

"It has taken us 15 years to develop our Dance studio
and Club Volleyball program to a point where we are
servicing over 2000 students, most of them with multiple
class enrollments, spread over three separate locations. We
were spending more time trying to manage our student
database, than teaching the classes."
"We were using a combination of Excel spreadsheets, billing
software and a variety of hard copy forms, which then needed
to be filed and stored. Although we had already implemented
an auto-debit system to collect tuition each month, my
biggest fears were the lack of security of our current
system, as well as the worry of our computer crashing and
taking all of our data with it."
"By working with Jackrabbit, a web based class management
program, we immediately alleviated my concerns regarding
security and the possibility of losing important data which
was only stored on our in-house computers. The Jackrabbit
program also allows multiple users to login simultaneously
from each of our three locations. This allows for all
registrations and other changes to be processed immediately,
rather than waiting for one person to input them into our
old, archaic system."
"The Jackrabbit staff has been extremely open to suggestions
regarding how to continue improving the value and
effectiveness of their software. It is actually very
satisfying to see some of our recommendations or suggestions
be implemented into the software. It makes me realize that
Jackrabbit really does care about what their customers have
to say."
"We are looking forward to a long, and continuously
improving relationship." |

"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 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 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 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 am so glad that you created Jackrabbit. We have found
that using your system is easy to understand and easy to
use. Jackrabbit went above and beyond with all of the
different elements that are offered. We look forward each
day to being able to use Jackrabbit. My business information
has never been this well organized. Thank you
Jackrabbit!!!!!!!!

pleased I am with the Jackrabbit 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 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. 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 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 to be the best and most affordable
class and customer data management system available. " |

| "The Jackrabbit 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 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!" |
