The Best JumpRun Alternative:
Bookings + Manifest, Zero Upfront Cost
JumpRun is solid manifest software—but manifest doesn't bring in customers. EZDZ gives you everything JumpRun offers for operations, PLUS online tandem booking, abandonment recovery, and the analytics to actually grow your drop zone. All with no upfront cost.
No setup fees • No monthly minimums • Bookings + manifest included
Manifest Software Doesn't Grow Your Business
JumpRun does manifest well—but if you're still using a separate system for bookings (or no system at all), you're making things harder than they need to be.
"Invisible to Tandems" Is the Gap
JumpRun's own tagline says tandems don't see it—which means your biggest revenue source has no way to book through your manifest system. You need a separate booking solution, separate payments, and a way to connect it all. That's more tools, more complexity, more places for things to break.
No Booking = No Abandonment Recovery
When someone visits your website thinking about a tandem and leaves without booking, manifest software has no idea it happened. No booking funnel means no way to capture those almost-customers. Every abandoned visitor is revenue walking away—and you'll never know.
Operations Without the Full Picture
JumpRun tracks loads and jump counts—great for operations. But what about your booking funnel? How many website visitors become customers? Where do people drop off? Without conversion analytics, you're running half your business blind.
Bookings AND Manifest in One Platform
EZDZ handles everything—online tandem booking that converts visitors into customers, plus full manifest capabilities for day-of operations. One platform, one login, one source of truth. No duct-taping multiple systems together.
Recover Abandoned Bookings Automatically
When someone starts booking a tandem and gets nervous, EZDZ captures their info and sends recovery emails automatically. Drop zones recover thousands in revenue that manifest-only software would never know existed.
Full Funnel Visibility with Ribbit
See exactly how visitors become bookings. Track conversions, identify drop-off points, and make data-driven decisions about your marketing. Know your numbers, grow your business.
Manifest Tracks Jumps. Bookings Create Them.
JumpRun is great at managing who's on what load. But how do those tandem customers find you and book in the first place?
Here's the reality: manifest software solves an operations problem, not a revenue problem. JumpRun helps you manage jumpers once they're at your drop zone—but it doesn't help you get them there. You still need a way to capture online bookings, process payments, and recover the people who almost booked but got nervous.
EZDZ handles the entire journey: from the moment someone Googles "skydiving near me" to the moment they land from their tandem. Booking, payment, manifest, analytics—all in one platform with no upfront cost. Why pay for manifest software AND a separate booking system when you can get both in one place?
What You Get Beyond Manifest
Everything JumpRun does, plus the booking and revenue features it doesn't

Why Drop Zones Need More Than Manifest Software
JumpRun is good manifest software. It handles fun jumper self-service well, tracks loads efficiently, and has solid features for day-of operations. If all you need is a way to manage who's on what load, JumpRun does the job.
But manifest is only half the equation. Every tandem customer on your manifest got there somehow—they found your drop zone online, decided to book, and completed the reservation. JumpRun handles what happens after they show up. But what about everything before that?
If you're using JumpRun for manifest and something else for bookings, you're managing two systems. That means two logins, two places where data lives, and two potential points of failure. It also means your booking system and manifest system don't talk to each other automatically. EZDZ gives you both in one platform—bookings flow directly into your manifest, payments are tracked in one place, and you have a single source of truth for your entire operation.
Tandem booking is still "under consideration" on JumpRun's roadmap. That means if you need online booking today, you need another solution. And even when JumpRun adds booking eventually, will it include abandonment recovery? Conversion analytics? The revenue-focused features that turn website visitors into paying customers?
The question isn't whether JumpRun is good—it's whether manifest-only is enough. If your drop zone runs primarily on fun jumpers and word-of-mouth tandems, maybe it is. But if you want to grow your tandem business, capture online bookings, and recover the revenue from people who almost booked but got nervous, you need more than manifest software. You need a complete platform.
EZDZ gives you both, with no upfront cost. Full manifest capabilities for operations, plus online booking, abandonment recovery, and conversion analytics to grow your revenue. One platform, one price, no duct-taping systems together.
