Why parks choose wakesys over Roller
Real reasons from real park operators who made the switch.
Setup in Hours, Not Weeks
Roller implementations require consultants, training, and weeks of configuration. wakesys gets you live in a single day.
Free for All of 2026
No upfront costs for 2026. Try everything risk-free while Roller charges enterprise pricing from day one.
Actually Mobile-First
wakesys was built for phones. 60-second booking, thumb-friendly UI. Roller was built for desktops and retrofitted for mobile.
Pre-Arrival Waivers That Work
Guests sign waivers at home. Groups share claim links. Zero waiver queues. Roller offers waivers, but not this streamlined.
No Training Manual Required
Staff figure out wakesys in minutes. Roller's complexity means weeks of training and constant support tickets.
Built by Park Operators
We run parks ourselves. Every feature exists because we needed it. Not because a product manager imagined it.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
wakesys covers all the essentials for activity parks.
Common questions about switching from Roller
Everything you need to know.
Is wakesys really a good alternative to Roller?
Yes. wakesys covers all the core features activity parks need: online booking, digital waivers, POS, and capacity management. The key difference is simplicity — wakesys is designed for parks without dedicated IT teams, while Roller is built for enterprise operations. Most parks find wakesys covers 100% of their needs with 10% of the complexity.
What features does Roller have that wakesys doesn't?
Roller has some enterprise features like multi-venue CRM, advanced retail inventory, and F&B management. If you're running a large theme park with hundreds of employees, Roller might be more suitable. For activity parks (trampoline parks, aqua parks, climbing gyms), wakesys covers everything you need.
How long does it take to switch from Roller to wakesys?
Most parks are fully operational on wakesys within a single day. We provide migration assistance to help transfer your products and settings. Many operators run both systems in parallel during transition.
Is wakesys really free?
Yes! wakesys is completely free for all of 2026. No credit card required, no per-transaction fees. We want you to experience the platform before paid plans launch in 2027.
Can I try wakesys while still using Roller?
Absolutely. Many operators test wakesys on a subset of their offerings before making the full switch. Since it's free for 2026, there's no financial risk.
