Soljio vs Jackrabbit
An established class-management system sold to swim schools alongside gyms and dance studios, priced by student count.
Built for
- Soljio
- Swim schools first. One workspace per school covers programs, sessions, rosters, report cards, families, and staff.
- Jackrabbit
- A general class-management product for gymnastics, dance, cheer, and swim, with a swim edition layered on the shared system.
Getting set up
- Soljio
- Import your current roster from a spreadsheet and publish your programs the same afternoon. Private-beta schools set up with the founder on a call.
- Jackrabbit
- Vendor-led onboarding with a coaching program. Reviewers describe an interface that takes time to train new staff on.
Family booking
- Soljio
- Families browse and book on your own soljio.com subdomain or custom domain. No app to install; every page is built for a phone first.
- Jackrabbit
- A parent portal and online registration forms that embed in your existing website.
On deck
- Soljio
- Instructors take attendance and mark skills from a phone at the pool edge. The front desk sees the same roster at the same moment.
- Jackrabbit
- A staff portal with mobile attendance and a time clock, included on higher tiers.
Skill progress
- Soljio
- Report cards mirror your paper checklists: one sheet per level, each skill marked attempted or completed. Guardians see the card as it fills in.
- Jackrabbit
- Skills tracking with configurable skill lists and progress reports for parents.
Payments
- Soljio
- Card payments through Stripe when you want them. Cash, check, and an external card reader are first-class, so enrollment never waits on a processor.
- Jackrabbit
- Recurring billing and online payments through the vendor's processing partners, plus QuickBooks integration.
Pricing model
- Soljio
- Private beta. Pricing is agreed with you before you start.
- Jackrabbit
- Monthly tiers that step up with your active student count. Some features such as point-of-sale and the time clock are add-ons on higher tiers.
Automation
- Soljio
- Autopilot is in development with our private-beta schools. When it ships, you choose whether it suggests, asks first, or handles the task itself.
- Jackrabbit
- Scheduled emails and texts, recurring billing, and reporting. No assistant that acts on your schedule.
When Jackrabbit is the better fit
Jackrabbit may fit better if you need point-of-sale, a staff time clock, and QuickBooks sync in one vendor today, or if your school already runs on it and the team knows it well.
When Soljio is the better fit
You run a swim school, your instructors work from a phone on deck, and you want families booking on your own domain without an app to install. You would rather set the system up in an afternoon than in a training program.
