It is easy to understand, easy to learn and easy to find your way around. New employees don't need a big training, steps are pretty obvious once you know the basics of the software. The best thing about Amilia is their after-sale service. They are always contacting you to make you confortable to call if you have any question. They are listening to your concern and trying the best they could to add the features you asked for. They are always doing follow-ups with their client. > > **Cons**: It's hard to speak to someone when you call the technical support, you can wait a lot over the phone and finish on a voicemail. If you need immediate assistance, it's hard to get in touch with someone. It seems employee of Amilia working at the technical support are new. I had to chat with them often for technical problems, and rarely they can solve my problem. They are only opening a technical ticket and getting back to me weeks after. Most of the time, I finished by solving my problem alone and find a way around. It seems sometime I know more Amilia than the customer service. > > With Amilia, we no longer have double bookings and we are offering a better customer service. Client can easily register online and manage their activities. Our staff can easily manage rentals and contract. ----- ### "Great Software for Bookings" — 5.0/5 > **Astrid** | *3 October 2024* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: From the initial inquiry to full implementation, the Amilia team were excellent throughout our experience. They provided excellent guidance and support at every step of the way. The software itself is user-friendly, both for our backend operations and for customers. We've received positive feedback from customers about how simple and seamless the booking process is. Additionally, Amilia offers a wide range of features that were crucial to our decision. We needed to manage multiple locations, incorporate a calendar, handle eCommerce, and more—and Amilia provided a solution for each requirement. > > **Cons**: The only downside we've encountered is that tickets cannot be refunded directly, only credited back. > > Our clients were seeking a software solution that could easily manage multiple locations and simplify the booking process. We discovered Amilia online and were impressed by a positive review from another client, which led us to explore it further. ----- ### "SmartRecration" — 3.0/5 > **Brian** | *28 August 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Smart Rec is an amazing experience. Easy to use and follow. > > **Cons**: I did not like how members can't find it easier to access. ----- ### "Amazing Tool but Pricey for Small Teams" — 4.0/5 > **Aiden** | *24 December 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to integrate for developers. The API documentation is fairly robust. The recommendation system is also extremely useful. > > **Cons**: The pricing model may drive away smaller businesses, and teams with limited budgets. The system is also complex especially if you're new to using smart rec. ----- ### "Sparta YMCA" — 4.0/5 > **Kyle** | *28 August 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: User-friendliness, aesthetics, response-time, customer service > > **Cons**: Lack of reporting capabilities, repetitive information required during purchases, capabilities around mass editing, ability to toggle memberships to different categories in the middle of the month, ability to retain payment information attached to a users account > > Positive after adjustment time on the front end ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/345504/smartrec?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/345504/smartrec) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
