Basically runs my program for me!
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use Amilia for everything regarding enrollment and registration. I am a daily user. It is connected to our website so families can register online easily. On the admin side, we can edit and build classes. On the teacher side, we can easily take attendance and access our students' contact information on the app.
Pros
- Being able to import programs so you don't have to start from scratch
- Dividing class builds into different categories: registration periods, forms, session, drop-ins, etc. Makes editing easy!
- Super user friendly. Taking attendance on the app is quick and easy!
Cons
- I don't like how you have to reload everything when changing from the registration tab to the edit tab. For example, if you are looking at a class under the registration tab and need to make an edit, you can't just switch to that class under the edit tab. You have to hit edit and it reloads ALL the programs again.
- We have multipasses built under memberships. The multipass function shows up as "drop-in" on our website which is really not what it is. It is used as a 6-class pack, not a drop-in. This causes a lot of confusion with our parents.
Return on Investment
- Implementing Amilia on our website was a game changer for our enrollment numbers. It is much easier to use than our previous enrollment software.
- The fact that our tuition rates can be prorated automatically is the best part. We used to have to do it manually which was tedious. Now it is easy peasy and parents can sign up and pay for just the classes remaining in the semester!!
