Ask ten dance studio owners what software they use and at least three will say Jackrabbit. It’s been the activity studio space for over a decade and it earned that reputation by solving problems. Class rosters, tuition billing, costume orders, and parent communication. Regpack comes at the same market from a different angle. Less studio management, more enrollment intelligence. The question isn’t which one is better. It’s which problem you’re actually trying to solve.
What Jackrabbit is Built For
Jackrabbit lives inside the studio. Once a student walks through the door the platform takes over: class scheduling, level tracking, attendance, costume measurements, and parent portals. It’s purpose-built for the day-to-day operations of running a gymnastic gym, dance studio, a swim school, or a music academy.
There’s a dedicated product for each vertical. Jackrabbit Dance, JackrabbitGym, Jackrabbit Music — each turned into the specific terminology and workflows of that activity type. Over 12k schools use the platform across 25 countries. Customer support is one of the most consistently praised aspects of the product.
Pricing scales with student count, starting at $69 per month and running up to $245 per month at higher enrollment tiers. The branded parent mobile app is available as a separate add-on.

What Regpack is Built For
Regpack lives before the student walks through the door. The enrollment experience from the moment the family decides to sign up to the moment every form has a signature including session selections and payments — this is where Regpack shines. A parent registering two kids at different skill levels gets a flow that adapts to each child without the family having to figure out which questions apply to them. Returning families move faster because their student profile keeps information from the most recent registration data. Someone who starts and abandons the form halfway through gets a follow-up email with your chosen content and copy.
The operational payoff shows up in what doesn’t pile up on your desk. No stack of incomplete registrations to sort through. No unsigned waivers discovered at the first class. The platform handles the follow through so your team can focus on running the program and enriching students.
Regpack also isn’t tied to a single activity type. Studios running camps alongside their class schedule, or offering adult programming on top of youth classes, run everything through the same system. No switching between tech or running reports across two different platforms.
Regpack vs Jackrabbit: Feature Comparison
Where Jackrabbit Wins
No other platform in this space tracks costume measurements, manages recital inventory, or run staff time clocks like Jackrabbit. That operational depth is hard to replicate and Jackrabbit has been refining it for years. For studios where the parent relationship is the product the polish of parent-facing experience is a genuine tool, not just a nice-to-have.
The vertical specific product also means that a gymnastics gym and swim school aren’t sharing a generic interface. The language, workflows, and fields match what that type of studio does everyday.
Where Regpack Wins
Growing enrollment is part of the goals of an enrichment or sports activity. Jackrabbit charges more for every student added. At 300+ active students you’re at $245 per month before processing fees. The branded parent app families expect to download line item on top of that.
On the enrollment side, Jackrabbit’s online registration handles the basics. Families can sign-up and pay but it doesn’t adapt based on what someone selects. A family choosing between three class levels sees the same form as everyone else. There’s no automatic routine, no dynamic document collection, no triggered follow-up for the family that started sign-up on Tuesday and never came back. That follow-up lands in someone’s task list instead.
Studios processing hundreds of enrollments before each sessions feel that most acutely. Regpack’s setup handles the volume without proportionally increasing the workload — the conditional logic and automated follow-up run regardless of whether you have ten new families or three hundred.
Which One is Right For You?
Jackrabbit has spent a decade at getting better at running studios. Regpack has spend a decade making sure every kid who wants to be there gets registered.
