    Perfect Fit for Small Fitness Businesses

    Pros

    Extremely user-friendly and tailored for fitness professionals. It delivers exactly what’s needed without unnecessary complexity.

    Cons

    A mobile-accessible texting platform and a broader business management app would be beneficial. More flexibility to create personalized programs for individual members instead of linking programs strictly to memberships would also be a big improvement.

    Using a separate website portal adds extra costs, and there hasn’t been enough time to fully explore the built-in website features yet.
