Student Manager Reviews

This software is very customizable. There are tons of settings that can be modified to suit the specific needs of your organization and many additional areas/fields in the system to collect specific data on courses, students, and payments. A lot of the modifications can be made with ease and without the need for additional support for technology administrators.

Nothing that I can think of. Any problems that I have personally had with this software have been due to a lack of knowledge on my part and/or a lack of additional technology resources within my organization. With sufficient training and organizational support, I believe this product can be adjusted to meet all of my needs.

Endless possibilities with names, registrations, courses, rosters, receipts, payments, etc... What ever data you put into the system, you can pull it out on to a report. Aceweb allows you to have multiple interfaces to meet the needs of different program areas. If you have one program that has different policies and cancellation policies, give that program a separate online interface and it can be customized to fit that programs' needs.

Our organization just switched over from a FoxPro version of the registration system to a SQL version of the registration system. We have come across some issues switching versions of the registration system, but everything is fixable and we are well on our way to having our system running smoothly.

Thanks for your great comments, Brittany. We won't stop working until your SQL version of Student Manager and ACEweb are humming along.

The ease of inputting sessions and courses is admirable. We have found that individuals like the ease of use in registering. The ability to personalize confirmations for each session is a large plus and the pared down options make it intuitive and easy to teach new employees.

In order for the information to show up properly on our website, some HTML coding must be used, which can cause extra hassle. Our clients are unable to register for multiple sessions/individuals at one time, so they must submit multiple transactions, which can be tedious. The overall look is outdated.

Hi Leslie! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we really appreciate it. We are glad to hear how easy it is to create courses. I do note your comment about clients not being able to register for multiple courses or multiple people in a single shopping session. You clients absolutely CAN do both. I strongly encourage you to reach out to your dedicated user support specialist to clear this up! As you mention, they'll be quick to resolve this!

As we explore the software further and have the time to attend training webinars, we discover more and more features that we were not aware that ACEware entailed. Our website has been totally made over thanks to ACEware, it is now so interactive, full of photos, video spotlights, links to You Tube, links to other website pages, instructor biographies and headshots for students to view prior to registering. Our customer support - Jason - always answers within 24 hours of any problems or requests we have. I was able to attend the annual ACEware User conference this spring and returned with many ideas and shortcuts. The webinars and archived webinars are so convenient and I cannot wait to implement the shortcuts and changes that I learn from them.

I cannot think of anything!

Thank you, Melodee! So glad you are enjoying your ACEweb makeover with responsive design! We are so glad you and your team continue to discover all the features we have available. Sharon

You can purchase several modules separately so if you don't need something, you don't need to buy it. The ACEware staff is the best and the customer service reps do a wonderful job of walking you through any kind of question you might have. It's pretty powerful course registration software that accommodates different organizations. They are always working to improve what it does and how.

It might seem pricey, but it's worth it when you need some help to be able to call them up and get it solved over the phone .

Thank you for the great comments and your confidence in our product and in our team! We do constantly look for ways to further enhance our product line. It's customers like you that drive our development.

I have purchased the Pocket Ledger, AceWeb & email modular which has given me a lot of features to manage my program.

I am a very small program and registrations continue to decline. I am finding it hard to keep up with the yearly service agreement which I love to have available to me. Because of that I am still operating on the old platform. I know AceWare continues to update and I hate missing out on all the updates.

Thanks for your compliments about our software and service, Michelle! We hate to hear that registrations are down in your program. We'll be in touch to see how we can help. Thanks so much for your loyalty these past 13 years!

That most of the information that we need is in this system.

Some features require extra help to adjust to our specific needs, and even then, it doesn't always work the way we would like It's slow, and often it gets stuck and needs to be closed and started again Coding, maybe not the right word, I'm referring to the abbreviation of the fields, is not self-explanatory and is not consistent. They have many abbreviations for the same field. This makes it very confusing and requires trial and error to see if I'm actually pulling the correct information.

Thank you for your candid feedback, Perla! We really appreciate it. We will get with you to get some examples of things that frustrate you so we can lend a hand!

This system is easy to use, and it offers state of the art classroom management and registration components. We have been using it for over twenty years, and we are extremely pleased with its functionality.

Through the year, we have had specific needs for customization, and the staff has been responsive in filling those needs.

Thank you, Jill, for your positive comments. We value our partnership with you. We are glad we could accommodate your custom needs!

I like that once you create and save a report, it is always available.

I wish there were more ways to print off screen shots

Student Manager is very user friendly. The customer service we receive from the folks at ACEware is outstanding. Our technician is very knowledgeable and quick to respond. He is always willing to assist and help find solutions for our needs.

We would really love to have a robust CRM function built into the system.

It's very easy to keep track of Rosters and details of your students.

It's a little tricky to get the hang of at first. But once you start using it. It becomes like second nature.
