Question asked by Pedro Rios 2305 days ago

Has anyone used Trainercize or MINDBODY software? I am looking for feedback.

BusinessTechnologysoftware

Hi.
I am looking at these two companies to use for designing online workouts for new and existing clients. If any of you have experience (negative or positive) with either of these companies, I would love to hear from you. If you have experience with a different company, I would love to hear that as well. I need to be able to use my own videos in the workout builder section.

Hi there! There are a lot of options out there. I think it really depends on how much you want to pay but there are two that I have used in different price ranges. Mindbody.com and http://www.fitsw.com/ are my favorites. Mindbody was very nice and professionally done - the only downside was that it's pricey. FitSW seems more tailored for individual trainers / smaller gyms because its free - just not quite as polished as Mindbody but still very good.

They both do a great job at creating, recording and sharing workout plans and also diet plans. http://www.fitsw.com/ also is excellent for tracking progress on client fitness. They both are very helpful in helping me manage all my client's info in one location. Good Luck!

I have used mindbody, but only for scheduling and payment. I think it does a pretty good job with these things.

I have used PTonthenet. I did like their huge selection of exercises (the only thing they do better than idea), though I found their software clunky to use when trying to write client programs. You can import your own custom exercises in as well.

Mindbody is really costly! I like www .fitify.me make sure you use one that will let you post your schedule so you can run your classes in multiple locations. Fitify lets you sell your session to your clients in block and the system remembers and redeems them as they are used. Clients can also book into your schedule from any device, it alerts you to the requested time and bills the clients account. Also having the ability to collect multiple forms of payment will help branding you into a legitimate business. They let Make sure you can organize and contact all those people that took your classes in the past. They you can do things like a message blast out to all your clients saying you have an availability. I like Fitify cause they are really good to the little guy, they don't cost much but they really bring legitimacy to any one person business like a personal trainer or palates, yoga & zumba instructor.
