ProClass is Pro!
Using ProClass allows me to streamline some the steps in clients booking corporate on-site training and accepting other forms of payment; besides checks.
Pros
The customer service is exceptional. I can call tech support, e-mail or chat on-line. They'll even set up customized webinars for staff learning to use Pro-Class. I did not expect to get such support or a quick response to even my basic questions and even more complex problems. I also like that our clients/students can sign up for classes on their own and make payments using a secure site.
Cons
I wish the manual covered more material. But the manual leaves off, the customer service covers.

ProClass is a great system, but very pricy
Overall I had a positive experience with ProClass, but ended up have to switch due to the high yearly cost of the software
Pros
Helped keep everything well organized and overall was a decent software.
Cons
ProClass has some very nice features and I overall liked the software, but since we are a small non-profit, we had to switch to WooCommerce because of the cost of ProClass.
Reasons for Switching to ProClass
ProClass was a better fit for us and our needs, but ended up switching to WooCommerce in the end strictly due to the yearly cost of ProClass- Used Daily for 1+ year

Marketing savvy folks should not use Proclass
Pros
Proclass is great if you only have a simple structure such as an art studio only offering art classes. The customer service rep we have is AMAZING....he's been doing his absolute best to try to find work arounds and patches, but as a growing business, this hasn't been a great experience. Though he's really the one we keep going back to. The other reps have tried to be helpful, but none of them have found workarounds or solutions for us and the challenges we face with Proclass were ones that could significantly impact our business.
Cons
Proclass is great if you only have a simple structure such as an art studio only offering art classes. However, if you run a series of classes AND are marketing savvy with different offers or complex structure for camps, this is definitely not a system for you. The functionality simply isn't there.
The API is a joke. It is not a fully developed API so expect to do some heavy coding.
Response from ProClass
While an anonymous review is difficult to respond to as we do not know the circumstances around these comments, we do appreciate the feedback and are pleased that our customer support is rated so highly.
To classify ProClass as a marketing application is inaccurate and misleading. ProClass is not marketed as, nor meant to be a marketing platform such as Mail Chimp or other direct marketing applications and we explain this to every prospect prior to any sale.

*Unlimited bulk email with customizable templates.

Customers have successfully used the API to integrate ProClass to their websites as well in house real time video schedule displays and as with other various applications. It is a developer tool and should be used only by qualified developers who are familiar with XML, Json, and Odata standards.

ProClass Saved Us Volunteer Time
The training and support from ProClass were/are excellent. They were patient in helping us to understand how to set up the software for our needs. We appreciate the updates and new features. Everyone here is so pleased that we made the switch.
Pros
Flexibility: The ability to configure this software to meet our needs, to change the terms used and the thoughtful design has been very helpful to us.
Attendance: the front-end attendance function has saved us countless volunteer hours with our instructor teams.
Query ability: we can pull from the database to answer so many user/management questions.
Cons
The back end is a bit intimidating to learn how to use, although the new version promises an easier user interface. We had big efforts getting our users trained, but now our users really enjoy ProClass.
Response from ProClass
Thank you for the kind review. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work to improve ProClass going forward.

ProClass is a Great Tool for Education Administration
I was thrown into ProClass last year when our lead administrator resigned. While I had a very good technical guide to follow, when I called or emailed ProClass, I got hands-on support. The technical support from ProClass is outstanding. The trainers are also very polite and supportive -- best technical support I've received in years!
Pros
Once I was trained, I found ProClass easy to use. It has a ton of features, and we probably only use about 50% of what it can do.
Cons
Sometimes, it can take too long to call up a class. It might be do to having too many widgets that we don't use, so I'm going to remove some and see if it helps.
Response from ProClass
