RecTrac (PARKS DIRECT)
RecTrac (PARKS DIRECT) is one of the leading systems for use by Parks & Recreation agencies across the country. The vendor is Vermont Systems, Inc. (VSI).
The Prince George's County Department of Parks & Recreation implemented RecTrac (PARKS DIRECT) to replace Active Network's Class software (SMARTlink) which was end-of-life.
The Department is currently using RecTrac version 3.1.10.
RecTrac (PARKS DIRECT) is what is known as "software-as-a-service" (SaaS). Data is stored on VSI servers, and they handle backups, maintenance, and upgrades. It can be accessed using an internet browser from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.
