Which one should you pick?

Choose Mindbody if…

  • You run a multi-location studio with group classes and need a public booking marketplace.
  • You need an integrated point-of-sale, retail inventory, and staff payroll in one system.
  • You're willing to invest in onboarding and a higher monthly cost for enterprise features.

Choose GymManage Pro if…

  • You're a solo trainer, online coach, or small gym focused on 1:1 client relationships, not class booking.
  • You want a lightweight CRM with renewal nudges, lead funnels, and notes — not a full POS.
  • You want to get started and grow without a long sales call or implementation fee.
