    We have been working in IT for many years and we can say that the software fulfills what it promises but mostly I would say that it is oriented for businesses that are just starting out and if that is your case, friend, let me tell you that the software will save you many organizational problems.

    I have used Zen Planner at 3 different Jujitsu schools. Every school that has used it, has had great success in keeping their attendance records straight for their students. This is great when promotions are coming up, or special seminars that need to reach everyone. I don't know that Zen Planner is a great product for places that don't need to communicate with their clients on a regular basis.

    • The only thing I would like to see, is the ability to see my entire attendance from the app. I can view it on the desktop though.

    Vagro has lot of listing listing from nearby places and one can really walk up to the place using and understanding the map which can be very helpful in terms of getting into the spa or the saloon the best part is the timings and the payment feature that can be seen.

    • Saves me time in using a paper attendance record sheet.
    • Payments are automated, no need to request checks or payments from anyone. Emails are sent out if a payment fails.
    • I can keep track of 10, 20, 30, or even 50 students using this platform.
