Perfect for any music teacher or music school. Great to build my roster and keep it updated. Support staff are very helpful. Registration link is great to send to new students then easy to add into your roster > > **Cons**: Can be a bit cluttered, attendance could be simplified - yes or no option. Otherwise can't think of any cons. > > Excellent - completely run my music teaching business with it 80+ students with different schools. Really great ----- ### "Made admin way easier, MMS is basically my assistant" — 4.0/5 > **Ash** | *01 June 2025* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The easy way invoices are created \& sent \& the fact that I can keep track of all my students pieces, progress \& attendance. > > **Cons**: I really wish that it would time out when I log on with my mobile phone. It stays logged on with my pc but my phone is so much easier cause it’s always on me. > > So far it has made my admin work way easier, I can finally keep track of who payed \& who hasn’t, and I no longer have to individually make invoices every month. ----- ### "Absolute Game-Changer\!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sarah** | *27 May 2026* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: MMS adds incredible value to my music studio at aVERY reasonable rate. I love that I can put a very professional "foot forward" with all of the automations and integrations MMS offers. I can automatically invoice families via AuotoPay with Stripe, give them portal access to manage their account and calendar, send mass texts and emails, among other things. I LOVE that MMS added the ability to create multiple versions of sign up and contact forms, both for those using their but-on website builder and for those hosting a website externally. The forms can be customized to do exactly what I need and make my life so much easier because all the data is collected for me\! This is a feature I begged for from customer service... They constantly listen to their users and improve and add features. MMS is truly a game changer and sanity-saver for this independent studio of one....I can focus on the teaching and not so the admin with that I would be doing. And the monthly cost is so low and affordable, especially compared to the competition. Absolutely LOVE it\! > > **Cons**: I wish for a fully supported mobile app\! They rolled one out in Beta a while back, but it is no longer available. Someday I hope. But the web experience, both on PC and mobile is great; it just has to be within a with browser instead of openings as a stand-alone app on my phone. > > I've been using MMS for over 10 years now, and I remember wishing I had switched much sooner. I was so stuck thinking I had to actually manage my calendar and billing on paper. But once I took the time to give it a try and learn how to set up my calendar, billing, and more, it opened a whole new world of possibility and ease\! It is easily one of the most valuable investments I've ever made in my studio. Hands down. ----- ### "Frustrated by the inability to integrate or to get good data" — 2.0/5 > **James** | *29 December 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Has many good basic features that improve efficiency for invoicing, payroll, the registration widget is decent. Overall, it was a good tool for a while. > > **Cons**: Beyond the bare bones, anything I try to achieve with MMS is not possible. Want to integrate with other tools? Can't do it... no open APIs and functions through Zapier are so limited. Want to get data to help make informed decisions? Can't do that either. The reports are so limited and require hours of work on spreadsheets using formulas and pivot tables in order to import into a better system. This data is of course all static because you can't feed it properly to create dynamic data. Want to allow customers to book their own lessons through your website? The booking widget is so limited and can't be customized to meet your needs. AVOID AT ALL COSTS if you want a software that you can scale and grow with. Lately every function I try to achieve is not possible with MMS. To say I'm frustrated and disappointed is an understatement. > > At first it was great when my business was in its infancy but as I grow and need more from my tools it's become clear that MMS simply cannot deliver without a ton of manual work also. ----- ### "MyMusicStaff is a Studio Management Game-Changer\!" — 5.0/5 > **Kathleen** | *29 May 2026* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: My Music Staff has completely streamlined the way that I operate my studio\! The monthly membership is VERY reasonably priced (especially for all of the features that you get\!). With 4 teachers on staff, we love the ability to post sheet music and tracks to the online resources for our students' weekly home-practice (with the ability to see when and how often they have accessed the resource). Bulk billing, bulk invoicing and payroll features have saved me hundreds of hours each term\! Last but not least is Studio Communication: One of the main reasons we use MyMusicStaff for all studio communication is that every email and announcement is stored directly in your MMS message history, making it easy to go back and find information in one organized spot rather than searching through a busy inbox\! > > **Cons**: If I had to choose one area for improvement, it would be the lack of built-in two-way communication within the platform. While My Music Staff is excellent for scheduling, invoicing, attendance, and organization, I would love to see an internal communication feature similar to WhatsApp or group messaging. The ability for teachers to create class or studio groups where parents and students could communicate directly within the platform would make it even more convenient and eliminate the need to use multiple apps for studio communication. Even if this was a "tiered" feature where you had to pay extra for it - I would be more than willing\!\! > > The staff at My Music Staff are always prompt to reply to any questions or technical support that I need and they are always super helpful\! My overall experience with My Music Staff has been nothing short of superb\! ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/148451/my-music-staff?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/148451/my-music-staff) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
