Owner in Sales at Wallace Training Systems (Health, Wellness and Fitness, 1-10 employees)
Chose Mindbody
Vagaro customer service actually answers your questions and is responsive. They're 1/3 of the price. It's a decent enough app and can do most things. I thought Mindbody would have the capability I need but in reality, it does not. They sold diamonds but delivered vapor. Now …

Chose Omnify
MINDBODY was way too expensive and overly complicated for our needs. Omnify allowed us to select a package that only contained the needed functionality.

Chose Omnify
The Omnify price point makes it very competitive against its competition. Their great customer service also ensures your issues get dealt with (almost always) in a timely manner. The main thing is to ensure it ticks all the boxes (or as many as possible) for what you want the …

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.

Shailja Rohillah, of Omnify, went above and beyond to respond quickly and did everything she could to accommodate my needs. Even when the exact thing I wanted, was not an option, Shailija not only found a work around but put the time in herself to address my need.
We have been working in IT for many years and we can say that the software fulfills what it promises but mostly I would say that it is oriented for businesses that are just starting out and if that is your case, friend, let me tell you that the software will save you many organizational problems.

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.

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.

We would love to have more specific options for restricting the number of times a client can book a reservation per week.
It would be very beneficial for admins to be able to book clients in advance for classes that are not available to the mass clientele yet.
We would like to be able to edit client's email addresses. Several of our members have typos in the emails provided, so they aren't receiving confirmation emails and they can't log in, so they have to make new accounts.

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.

I'd give it a 10 except it didn't always render well on mobile devices, which caused some frustration for users. Otherwise it was easy to use, easy to manage, easy to make it look like "our" site, and very pleasant.
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.

Omnify's customer service has been pretty much always on point. Their chat feature is a great way to keep track of past communications and follow up on recurrent issues, and their response time is most of the times very quick.
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.

Before Omnify we used Jumbula. Jumbula made registering families much easier but Omnify has the benefit of auto-renew and auto-pay plus the membership set up in general is something new that Omnify provides. We have also used Formsite in the past but it requires a bit more administrative back end work for our employees than Omnify does.

Vagro has lot of listing listing from nearby places and one can really walk up to the place using and understanding the map which can be very helpful in terms of getting into the spa or the saloon the best part is the timings and the payment feature that can be seen.

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.
My ROI is calculated by customer satisfaction and Omnify allowed us to operate three community pools during a pandemic, making those that wanted to use community amenities able to do so in a measured and safe way.
