Best on the market swim school software
Comments: I am forever grateful I found Simply Swim. I was previously doing everything on spreadsheets and as my business grew to 40 or more students (now over 140 student) managing catch-up lessons manually was impossible. I was spending more administration time trying to give people something for free. Total insanity. Now I have Simply Swim. Easy to use, scalable, designed by [SENSITIVE CONTENT] who has grass roots skills in running swim schools so you know its an exceptional product built for us at the coalface of the LTS industry. Thank you K[SENSITIVE CONTENT],your amazing to have created this software.
Pros:
The student timetable scheduling ease of use, SMS communications tailored at class level in attendance records in case of urgent communications regarding unscheduled closures, flexible communications in the campaigns feature to target specific clients, the parent portal for advising of student absences reduces my administration time significantly but most of all the software support is exceptional when you need advice on how to resolve a scenario.
Cons:
I'm on the basic price plan and would love the parent portal to allow features such as student progress but I know this is available on another plan. What would be even more useful would be the ability for the parent to have an area on the portal to flag all of their available days/times for future terms. This would save a lot of administration when working out the timetable for the term ahead - Similar to a waitlist but recording term number, flag days ie: Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat,Sun, mornings and or afternoons. Currently I put that information in the "parent occupation" field on the family record.

Comments: Exhausting, but hoping it will be worth the time investment
Pros:
It seems to have all the features Necessary to run a swim school.
Cons:
It is taking a very very long time to set everything up ready to use.
Simply Swim makes admin a breeze
Comments:
Simply Swim has cut down on admin time for us and it has been easy to train new staff to use the system. Based on referals from other swim schools its the only system we looked at purchasing.
I highly recommend Simply Swim
Pros:
I love the user friendly features for my swim teachers and admin staff. We can access all the information we need on a daily, weekly or term basis. The features are updated regularly and the support from the team at Simply Swim and the facebook page is always fast and helpful. As an owner I can print financial and student reports and intergrate my operations with my accounting software as well.
Cons:
That not all features are available in all packages. Not all the information in reports is easy to find
Exceptional support and continual development
Comments: SimplySwim is an easy to use database and the support team are always quick to resolve any issues we have. They continue to develop new/enhanced features to ensure a great user experience. This has allowed our business to focus on the areas we need to without spending large amounts of time on administration.
Pros:
It is user friendly and easy to navigate, there is also good 'help' documents to use for any issues.
Cons:
The reporting can be confusing and it is difficult to find some information.
User Friendly
