We are currently using this program called NonEuclid but it is a little frustrating to use sometimes and I was wondering if anyone knows another program for hyperbolic geometry.
Does anyone know a good hyperbolic geometry software program?

You might check out Geometry Explorer. I recently ran across it and have been impressed by it thus far. Enjoy!
During college, a friend and I developped what we called an Hyperbolic Browser which task was to let its users explore the hyperbolic space via multiple models such as :
- Poincaré Disk
- Poincaré Half-Plane
- Beltrami-Klein Disk
With features exclusive to the Poincaré Disk : Regular Polygon Tiling generator, and 3 other generations of point. And the possibility to "move" the points dynamically.
The goal was for us to better understand what was this unorthodox geometry and provide tools to explore for neophytes.
Don't be too harsh on us. The core of the project was designed when we were students. Going back from the start would have been time-consuming, fastidious and not really interesting for the end-user so the project stands as it is.
Since April 2016, I worked on this maths project on my spare-time with the aim to release the project under a Free and Open Source licence. After a bit of refactoring and some new features, I'm happy to release what will be version 1.2.
There still are some bugs, the architecture is not perfect (for sure), but at least some features do work.
Feedbacks are wanted and welcomed ! You can download the software directly from the repo.
