Appointy vs. MINDBODY

Appointy is very well suited if you need a quick and dirty option to schedule meetings with people outside your company empowering them to choose a time and date. It is less suited for scenarios where you want to be in control or if you want to share info and attachments prior to the meeting.

MINDBODY excels in areas that rely on the "bread and butter" of its design: scheduling, member management, and payment processing. Overall as a fitness center management solution, MINDBODY is by far the best product we have used and they have evolved their capabilities in good alignment with our needs as well.

• Eliminate email.call back and forth with web based scheduling.
• Automate daily tasks to boost staff productivity and manage my entire schedule in one place.
• Understand my demands and needs and provide personalised solutions.
• Helps and provide a sub domain that we can use to to create our own page.
• Flexible time slot intervals.

• MindBody does a great job of sending out reminder emails to clients so they do not miss a class.
• MindBody does a great job at giving instructors a fast and easy way to check in clients and to see who is all signed up for their classes for the week.
• MindBody has a great payroll feature. All you have to do is set the dates and it generates a nicely laid out PDF of all the classes you taught during that time period and what you have made from them.

• The interface is a little clunky / glitchy sometimes.
• The design could be improved
• It isn't the most streamlined process setting up the opening hours

• There is so much functionality and not enough accountability. I wish there were more tracking of all transactions done on the clients or operations end to be able to review history and learn from mistakes.
• The MINDBODY branded app connection needs more attention.
• Please add a covid vaccination checker to the application (not just to use in the web browser). It has taken way too long to get this feature.

Settings are often buried, user interface rules vary depending on whether it's a newer feature or an older one. From daily usage, people learn how it works and get used to it, but it's not something someone could just pick up without any training or hand-holding.

Constant errors and TERRIBLE PRODUCT support

Fails at everything form availability to reliability.

MINDBODY support takes forever to get back to you via email in my experience. The process is not as simple as it was back when they had the chat feature. I really wish they would bring that back! Most items are normally some weird glitch that they can fix in minutes but you have to wait days now.

The level of customization available with Appointy is much better than any other similar application The integration with other applications is seamless & smooth as compared to others Dashboard provided is much more intuitive as compared to its competitors Data security & privacy is addressed in a much better fashion than it's competitors

MINDBODY is really the only system of its kind that is widely used by fitness and yoga studios. Its app is the industry standard for looking up and signing up for classes, so most students rely on it exclusively. If there were another viable alternative it would have to promise more ease of use and intuitive backend.

Constant errors and ZERO support from the company.

• allowed us to utilize less staff time on scheduling and overseeing crowds for COVID testing
• saved time and money on staff time
• minimized staff frustration
• empowered staff to feel like they were part of the solution to use tech to improve practices

• I've had agents help me set something up that ended up costing time and money because it was done wrong. [In my experience], less senior agents need to stop guessing or going with "I think so" and talk to a senior agent to make sure what they are telling the client is correct.
• The app is good exposure.
