Case Study: Berkeley Art Studio achieves faster registration and 30% membership growth with ACTIVE Network

Art Studio Discovers How Better Technology Contributes to Growth

Berkeley Art Studio, a student-owned, university-run studio at UC Berkeley, needed a faster, more reliable registration and management system as it grew. After issues with Thriva—including slow speeds, crashes, glitches, and difficult training—the studio turned to ACTIVE Network’s Camp & Class Manager to better support its expanding operations.

ACTIVE Network implemented Camp & Class Manager in a seamless 2–3 week transition, making reporting, financial tracking, and staff training much easier. The results were significant: membership increased 30%, staff grew 50%, registration processing time dropped from 5 minutes to 2 minutes, and 95% of participants registered online.
