Parks & Recreation

"Line-ups reduced by 85%"

Ken Warner

"Save with hosted software"

"Our city recognized that if we didn’t make the transition to Active’s hosted software, we would need to spend a lot of money and staff time to not only identify an outside consultant to bring in, but then to pay that person to ensure our ongoing compliance with PCI regulations."

Sandy Stohler

Senior Management Analyst, City of Novato

Non-Profit

"Lower operating costs"

"Our objective was to replace our various operating software programs with a central system that could provide greater functionality, reliability and consistency for all of our centers. Active’s operating solution provides all these functions while enabling an organization of our size to lower operating costs and run more efficiently."

Darwin Barnett, Group Executive Director

YMCA of the Greater Houston Area

"Software was the best fit for us"

"Out of all the software providers we evaluated, Active’s software was the best fit for us. The system’s functionality most closely fit our needs."

Ryan Scott

Vice President/COO, Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue

"Processed almost 2,000 on day 1"

"Last year, we processed about 900 registrations in our branches in the first day of the summer period. With online registration, we processed almost 2,000 on the first day. There’s no way we could’ve handled that volume if we had that many people waiting in line."

Amber Supeene

Director of Membership Support Systems, YMCA of Edmonton

"Major time saver"

"The system’s been a major time saver. What used to take several minutes can now be done in under a minute. If you take hundreds of thousands of transactions a year, that really adds up."

Troy Patterson

CIO, YMCA of Greater Kansas City

"Greatly benefit from eMarketing Center"

"There are many organizations out there that might not have a formal marketing department and can greatly benefit from the materials [Active’s eMarketing Center] provides. In our case, the benefit was the time savings."

"My software trainer was amazing. He took me through everything step-by-step and we set up the system together."

Heather Gough

Executive Director, Rick’s All American

"Powerful reports!"

"[The software’s reporting] is worth its weight in gold. Rather than making sticky notes and attaching them to a file, you can track all 1200 kids and see exactly what happened and when it happened."

Hayley Gordon

Registrar, Phoenix Gymnastics Club

Campus Recreation

"Productivity is increasing"

"We are tremendously more organized, productivity is increasing across the board, and we’re able to explore new and innovative ways to enhance student, faculty and community life."

Nathan Dougan

Assistant Director, George Mason University Recreation Systems

"Training is very well thought-out"

"Active Network’s whole process for implementation and training is very well though-out and that was apparent every step of the way. Our size nor our processes intimidated Active. Instead, Active Network team listened to who we were and what our needs were. I just can’t say enough good things about that."

Beth Asfahl

Associate Director of Facilities, University of Minnesota

"Outstanding customer service"

"What astounds me most, however, is that to this day, seemingly every Active team member who answers the phone knows how to answer my question or resolve my issue. Everyone is extremely well-versed in the software solution and, after two years, Active’s customer service and support is still outstanding."

Thad Long

Associate Director for Facilities, Bowling Green State University
