It is very basic and might be something for a small gym definitely doesn't work well with bigger gyms.
I liked the layout of the software. It was very easy to find most things. Response time from Twin Oaks was typically pretty quick.
I don't like that it is hard to use a calendar on their software and that you can not sync their calendar to your phone. We literally had to use 3 different calendars to keep track of appointments. Billing was a hassle. We would have members not bill and some bill. Others would put in cancelationsand still get billed. I also don't like how once a member is created its almost impossible to delete them or merge them with a different account. Also when we switched from softwares we ended up finding out that twinoaks wasn't even redeeming sessions for the trainers so we had clients with 120 sessions when they should've only had like 20. It was a mess.

Over all the experience I have had with them has been great. The transition from desktop to online was a breeze, and the staff has been very helpful with all of my questions and training of my staff on the new software.
I love the New App and the online access. We have used Twin Oaks for several years and the online system is much more user friendly!!! We are very happy so far with what they are doing!!!
The only thing I dislike about the new software is when down loading the app, on iPhone it is a little confusing, but I think that is an iPhone thing because it is super simple with an android.

I love have a sign person to your club. Not called a 1800 number and get a redon call person that does not know your club.
the software Easy to use. Love the customer service
cant take/make payment on any device. Return of EFT Members can't see it or make a payment into the club post it on the 8th.
Hi Mike - thank you for the review. And yes, you can absolutely take a payment from any device and members can pay from anywhere they login to the Member Portal. We'll give you a call to show you how.

Positive. Staff is willing to help when needed and provide solutions.
We use Twin Oaks for membership in our church recreation center, which uses paid memberships for members and non-members. The Twin Oaks software has the flexibility to handle a number of different customer categories, a strong accounting feature and numerous ways to retain members. The response from Twin Oaks customer support is very good as well.
Renewing memberships before a member's expiration date can be confusing as well as shufflinf between different types of payments.
Thank you for taking the time to do a review Lance, we appreciate your input and feedback. Please let us know if we can help further and do some additional training for doing renewals.

In June of this year our fitness center migrated from the Twin Oaks Version 6 software to the new ADVANTAGE online system. What impressed me the most was the advance preparation and relatively seamless transition. We were able to customize our software to our industry and have been able to "tweak" it as we go. We have been able to customize reports to increase our sales by utilizing the sales breakdowns and targeting our advertising accordingly. Sales and Client Relations staff are readily available to answer any concerns or assist with formatting new reports or other requests as they occur.
Integrating with the new software was relatively seamless. As I stated we had an older Twin Oaks software product already in use. However, the change over occurred the end of June (Pandemic time) so we had trained our Front Desk staff and then there was constant change of personnel. Business was slower during this timeframe so there was not the normal frequency of using the system so the staff was...
Thank you Nancy for your valuable input and feedback, much appreciated.

It has been very good for us and the addition of Twin Oaks handling our credit card processing has been very smooth.
The software is easy to use and train new employees on.
The reports are very frustrating as the instructions are not clear and selection criteria is extremely confusing. It is frustrating to run reports and not obtain report data that is consistent.
Thank you Buck for the feedback regarding the reports. We may of made too many options available in them. We will reach out to you to offer further assistance.

This is a robust software and a lot to learn. Support team is very helpful.
Secure and robust management of members. We have bern using the software and one of its earliest customers. New updates are keeping with the times.
Could use more accounting integration to accounting software.
Thanks Peter, always a pleasure working with you and your staff at Litchfield AC.

We love them.
From the beginning when we began extracting our data to the first monthly draft the Twin Oaks team was there guiding and assisting to make the process a success. We love the ongoing support and accessibility when we have question or need assistance.
At this time I don’t think we have any cons. The software is meeting our needs. We do like that they are always looking for ways to improve.
Thanks for the kind words Debbie. We're always striving to service & support our clients.

[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and tge twin oaks support team in general is absolutely amazing. They are quick to respond and help whenever I need it.
The software makes it easy for us to add and remove options to our Point of Sale System and it does a great job of providing us with a detailed sales analysis weekly, monthly and annually. It also is great for time keeping reports.
Our Clock in scanner misfunctions often for employees who are trying to clock in with their badge. It also makes it difficult manually to clock in because the employees have to change their password so often that they forget it. The biggest complaint is the merchant card service charges. Please try to shop for a new company that doesn't charge as much for credit card transactions.
Thank you for providing this review Terrence. We will reach out to you and take a look at what you're currently being charged as perhaps something is misaligned. Typically the CC rates are very competitive across the industry.

It’s an all In one system, I can pull reports of cancelations, sign ups club usage etc etc. Has a very good memo system for our members and is easy to navigate and use.
After a system update there has been a lot of new bugs, the support team has been hard at work fixing them though
Thanks for the review Russell, we appreciate the feedback. It's great working with you and all the staff at Motion Fitness.

It simply allows our club to operate in a simple and effective manner. It provides the feedback and report metrics we need to improve our business.
A club like ours needs the services this kind of software offers.The staff has always been kind and knowledgeable even when dealing with a novice like me. I have turned down a great many software marketing companies who call upon us promising the world of services. Simply put no reason to change horses with yours has no bad habits as does whatever task you ask.

Our club has used Twin Oaks for 6+ years and are very happy with our experience. Tech support is available 24 hours with a call back feature, Carole in sales is amazing and so are most everyone I have worked with! Their historical tracking and business features make it possible to run our business the way we need to!
The sales and membership tracking make keeping up with our sales and growth super easy! The pricing has never changed or gone up at all, which is nice to know that that is set and not something we have to be concerned about.
Until you learn the software, it does not appear to be the most user friendly.

The folks at Twin Oaks are all really great folks. The reps are helpful, the tech guys know their stuff, and the trainers are very well versed. We have the desktop version, which I am told is a very stripped-down version of their online version. We got the desktop version as we are not a large entity and wanted to try and maintain some control over our accounting and member management. It has turned...
Great personnel. Fair and upfront pricing. Office hours are generous, and a 24/7 line is made available for tech emergencies. Knowledgeable techs. A couple personnel are experience with Quick Books, so are great help if you have to transmit things to QB.
Interface is not intuitive or easy to use. If you are not in their area, you must get training over the phone and remote computer, which can be difficult to schedule for employees. Manual is huge, hard to follow and sometimes inaccurate. Customizing modules or pages is mostly impossible, so you are often stuck with a bunch of stuff/clutter on a page that you don't use or need.
