Top 4 reasons why Mindbody is the better fit
Start-ups like bsport talk about us because we set the industry standard—here are a few reasons why no other software can compete with the original.
Extensive features
Avoid software limitations
Start-ups like bsport have some basic features but lack the ability to sustain growth. Tools for managing classes & appointments of all types should be a given with your software.
Mindbody’s comprehensive tools—like integrated marketing, reporting, scheduling & AI/ML—help you manage your business, all in one place.
Inclusive prices
Dodge the hidden fees & higher costs
Software should accommodate your needs & budget. Platforms like bsport restrict essential tools for pricier tiers.
Mindbody's competitive rates & various payment options make it easy for clients to checkout online or in-person—regardless of what subscription you have.
Integrations
Streamline your workflow with third-party tools
Connecting to your existing programs is key for management software. Start-ups like bsport have limited integration capabilities, which disrupts & complicates your operations.
Mindbody has 90+ third-party options that help to simplify your processes, increase your revenue & boost your business’s growth.
Mindbody app
Secure your spot on the top booking app for fitness & wellness
List your business on the largest consumer platform of 2.4M+ active users searching for fitness & wellness services.
The Mindbody app is exclusive to our software & helps you connect with new clients to generate more revenue—which could offset up to 100% of your subscription costs.
