Plus Edition
Yes, I want to thank you sooooo much for this wonderful product. I used the free version for several years, but this year purchased the Plus version. I'm so thankful I did. I LOVE it and it has been a blessing to my homeschool. It already has been worth every penny. Also, I want to thank you for offering a free version for the families who may not be able to afford the Plus version immediately (like I was.)
The customer support is awesome. (As you can tell I'm sold on this product and have been telling others about it!!!!)

...And this is one of the main reasons why I really like HST,—there is so much flexibility in how to enter data. It is obvious that this program was developed by people who actually homeschool because you understand what homeschoolers need. Thanks again for such a great product and for all the hard work you put into improving it and into supporting us users.
I really love your product and I think the support you offer is fantastic! I really cannot recommend HST enough!

I just want to say (again and again) what a fabulous job the two of you are doing. I am so impressed by the customer support that you give and that you really listen to the needs/wants of your customers and try whenever ever feasible to meet those requests!
I have used other at least two other software programs for record keeping and I "sampled" (free 30 day trial things) for at least 3 other programs that I can remember. Hands down this one is the best!
We all have different needs and we all think differently so no ONE program will have every feature that we want or need but WOW does HST Plus (and with the update.. WOW) it comes so close to being the Perfect program!

The customer support is simply the best that I've experienced, especially in a day and age where there is hardly any good quality customer service anymore. God has blessed you both with such a great gift to help the homeschooling community. We thank you and will continue to support your ministry.

I wish Katie and Jean-Laurent ran my state's DMV! LOL! Seriously, I think what you are doing for homeschoolers is a wonderful service! Thank you!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I needed this program. I spent all this week figuring the basic program out. All the "I wish it could do..." was in your Plus program, so I went ahead and purchased it. This will save me countless hours of computer work this year. I started out using Sonlight because I loved the teacher’s manual. Then I wanted to create my own curriculum, but had to create my own TM. I typed in every page number, for every subject, for every day, for every student last year into an EXCEL spread sheet before school started. Thank you so much for making a program that will do this for me!!! Now I can have my summer evenings FREE! I am going to spread the word about this program. I hope your business is greatly blessed by God. I know that your product has truly blessed my family.

I would like to let you know that I LOVE your program!! I downloaded the free basic version and could hardly wait for the promised upgrade. It has streamlined my planning process so much. I have always wanted to be disciplined about journaling our homeschool adventure, but have never seemed to put pen to paper. Your program gave me the ability to quickly document our days. In fact, it has been an inspiration - when having "one of those days" you wonder why you are doing this...I re-read my journal entries and it reminded me what a joy our school was only last week! Thank you so much for this excellent program! It's just what this homeschooling mom was looking for! Blessings to you and your ministry!

BTW...for all the new users of tracker...I have used the free version
for ages...then switched to the plus version. I absolutely LOVE
it...and have promoted it on the homeschool forum I moderate as well.
It is the greatest homeschool record keeping program I have tried.

We live in Texas and have the option of doing "Parent Taught Driver's Education" with our kiddos. One of the requirements of that option, however, is to be able to present - with an affidavit - the lesson plans that the child used to cover all the bases of Driver's Training.....soooo......I went in & created my driver's training lessons for each module straight out of the book the TX DPS provides and then was able to print out my son's daily assignment sheets with the "Module 411" in his "notes" section.....
When we took him in for his Instruction Permit test, the folks at the TX DPS were so amazed at the professionalism our plans displayed!!
They were passing them around to each other with "oohs" & "aahs" - we were beaming!!!!
Thanks Gentile's for this wonderful product that has made our lives & our Driver's Training so much easier!!

TRACKER Plus is outstanding. I received the CD-ROM and plan to install it on my other computers soon.
The free version is great; the Plus version thoroughly meets my needs.

This program is a Godsend as I'm just beginning my homeschool journey with a high schooler. Before this year, I was never very organized with our paperwork but high school has forced me to keep track of things. Thanks for all your hard work and your service to the homeschooling community. God bless.

This is a wonderful program and if you ever want a recommendation you have ours. We have homeschooled for 10 years and will for another 14 looks like. This is the best tool and most used one I have purchased and well worth every dime. With the support given by the TGHomeSoft group you just can't go wrong!

This is just a great big thank you. I just downloaded Plus. I have checked everyday waiting for when I could pre-order. I love basic and could not wait for Plus. I was nervous about how costly it would be. I am so thrilled to see what you are charging because to be 100% honest basic is more detailed then other programs that cost the same and more then what you charged for Plus.

The Homeschool Tracker has become such an extension of my homeschooling, I'd be lost without it. I'm trying to get used to all the new things and having fun with them. I love being able to change the colors. That's just a fun feature! Have a great day!

Your homeschool tracker has revolutionized the way we do our homeschooling. My son likes to know what he is going to be doing at any given moment in time. Your tracker has helped us to do that and I don't even know how to use all of it yet. I am looking forward to using the Plus edition and also reading the User Manual. Thank you!

I just wanted to thank you for making such a great program even better and available to us homeschooling families. I was delighted to see it interfaced all my existing data. I had dreaded putting in my data again. This program lets us spend more time on our primary goal - educating our children - instead of spending hours on paperwork. I can't thank you enough. May God richly bless you and your family.

Thanks so much for the HS Tracker program. It's great! I have just started to work with it but find it is very easy to use. Thanks so much.

Basic Edition
Hi. I LOVE this tracker program and so do my girls! We live in an 100% unregulated state so we don't *have* to use it, but my girls love it because they feel a sense of accomplishment to check off each 'completed' box as they finish things- and they love daily planning! They feel more grown up because I don't have to tell them what to do, they just look it up for themselves. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! :-) I have since recommended you around to everyone.

TGHomeSoft!! I cannot say enough good things about your Home School Tracker program. I absolutely love it. This is only my second year home schooling, and I feel so much more together this year. It has helped me get more organized and I can keep up with where my children are and how far we've come at a glance. It is just wonderful! I have recommended it to everyone in my home school co-op group and now we all have it! It is just a wonderful program and I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate all your hard work! Thank you! Thank you!

Over the course of 10 years, I have tried many record keeping systems. Some of the software would work half the time, the other half it would lock up my computer losing all the information that I had put in. Others were just too rigid, too expensive, or hard to manage. So, in self-defense, I went back to the old way of paper files. Then, last week, I came across the link to your website. As I read, I started to think that I would like to try it, but was wondering at what cost. Imagine the shock when I read that you were giving it away. The instructions for the download were clear and easy to follow, the download went smoothly, and the installation was a breeze. Of course, I had to try it out right away. Within a couple of days, I had entered the grades, assignments, tests, etc. for the last six weeks for one of my daughters. No freeze-ups, no lost information, it was wonderful. (And my computer is very temperamental)
I just wanted to thank you. After the initial data input, I will have more time to do other things. And for that I am very thankful.

You will never know what a blessing your program is to me. I feel as though the Lord led me to the chat board that someone had mentioned it on just so I would see. The record-keeping portion was beginning to overwhelm me and this just makes it so unbelievably easy. Thank you so much!!!
