I love that HiSawyer is specific to use for children activities and classes. I tried other booking plugins or websites that were a "one size fits all" (appointments for nail salon or doctor's office) and well... they didn't quite fit for my business. For instance, HiSawyer allows the possibility to see the age and birthdate of the kids, having an "older sibling discount", adding semesters or multiple locations, specially because our class doesn't have only one location... Bookings are specific for a kid's class, and it's awesome. 2. Very easy to use\! All what can be done in point \#1, is very easy to set up\! 3. Professional look. Some other plugins I had tried before look very outdated and amateurish. I love HiSawyer fresh and professional design. It's exactly what I was looking for for months until I bumped into HiSawyer. > > **Cons**: I really love everything about it. If I had to really look for perfection: it would be awesome if there was an app. It might be just me, but checking it from mobile can be a little bit frustrating sometimes. Nothing out of this world, not bugs or errors, just think about checking social media from a web browser in your phone. But other than that, I love this\! ----- ### "Good Software" — 4.0/5 > **Lesly** | *07 November 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is flexible in the option of weekly registrations and can be integrated with the teachers' roster. > > **Cons**: It does not have CRM integrations or more complete profiles for tracking students or families. Additionally, orders processed by families must allow for late start in prorating and start date selection. > > Overall, it’s good, but a system with integrations to other trending applications would be better, though it may come with slightly higher transaction fees. ----- ### "Sawyer Used to be Good" — 3.0/5 > **Joel** | *14 April 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Sawyer is easy to implement and their customer service is helpful at first.They might be good if your customers all use the same main stream web browser (whichever one happens to work that day) and they are registering kids for classes without parent involvement or too many details. > > **Cons**: There is no option to add a second adult/parent to a family account.The program doesn't work with Duck Duck Go or many web browsers consistently. > > We have lost more business than gained in the past few months as sawyer seems to be melting down into dysfunction. They used to be good. They changed their pricing/business model to charge businesses and their customers BOTH directly. At the same time their service and functionality (along with down time) has cratered. We are frantically looking at other options as Sawyer has now lost more business for us than it has gained due to their dysfunctional, confusing system on the front end. ----- ### "Wish Sawyer had the same features for adults..." — 4.0/5 > **Janine** | *28 January 2022* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Because I was not a web designer and didn't have backend experience, I needed a platform that I could basically input information into, I wish however it was more customizable. I also was drawn to Sawyer because I wanted to create memberships as well as classes and this gave me the opportunity to do both. > > **Cons**: There are more things I dislike them like unfortunately. Some of them small like wishing I could customize the color other than red, some of them huge in that the forms are rigid meaning I can't have a different form intake for a member from my students. I need more flexibility and options for my businesses I was hoping everything could live under one umbrella. I find it almost impossible to navigate and find things with ease, it is not user friendly and various features are buried inside other futures and I'm constantly going back and forth trying to find things. I get super frustrated with having to pull up FAQs and directives online. The window doesn't stay open when you move from one area of the website to another so I constantly have to keep it searching for the same information. Some days it's brutal and I feel like I spend way too much time on this program. > > Well I'm terribly frustrated I'm also very grateful because I needed something quick and I was not able to pay a web designer to develop this deep of the system. I have a bit of a love-hate relationship to it, I want more features for adults and I want more flexibility in general. ----- ### "Sawyer is an AWESOME Rgistration System" — 5.0/5 > **Corey** | *27 January 2022* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We love using Sawyer\! It is easy to set up our programs and registration for our programs. Parents love the UI and it is optimized for mobile, making it very user friendly and easy to register their children for our programs from their phones. We love that our coaches can easily check rosters from their mobile phones and are able to track attendance. Great product. Excellent support. Highly recommend\! > > **Cons**: I wish that Waitlisted participants would automatically get notified when a space opens up for a program, so that they could easily transfer from Waitlist to Enrolled and become Registered. I wish that we could automate a welcome email to participants after they register for one of our programs. > > Sawyer has been overall fantastic. They have an awesome support team. The product is fantastic. I am very happy with Sawyer, and highly recommend it. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/111035/sawyer?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/111035/sawyer) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
