Pros:

I’ve been using TrueCoach for a LONG time (since it was originally called “fitbot” and didn’t have an app!). I love that the team is always improving the software for both clients and trainers. Because of TC, I’ve been able to grow my business into a six-figure coaching program where I can have a handful of customized clients AND pre-made programs for more passive clients/passive income. It’s user-friendly on both sides, simple, and attractive looking. I had tried other software programs before that are probably great if trainers want to add in more nutrition and other details, but for those of us just looking to create high quality fitness plans with video feedback/submissions, detailed cues, and easy tracking — this is where it’s at. My favorite features: - My clients can submit videos and I can submit videos back in response. - Written feedback is also very easy - Messaging clients is simple - I love being able to upload my own exercise library AND being able to outsource other links in case I haven’t filmed something myself - Copying & pasting has saved me soooo much time with workouts and adding subtle progressions

Cons:

Least favorite parts about TC: - Managing subscriptions was complicated for me since I wasn’t able to do one-time billing as well. I bill my clients separately now. - I do wish we could have days where instead of adding a workout, we can add a write up. So no A, B, C sequencing. I just use the workout format to write in educational posts for my clients and it works fine but I’d love if there was a plain option (kind of like rest days but not rest days). - I wish I could organize my clients into “folders” rather than tagged groups. Having folders to click on would be SO helpful instead of having a long list and then always needing to click on the tag I want to focus on.

Reasons for switching to TrueCoach

Trainerize was SO busy. I couldn’t copy & paste individual workouts so I had to rebuild them. There was no “dragging” feature either. It just seemed like there was always a lot going on and like there were too many little details that added more work for me and my clients. Simple is sustainable!

Pros:

True Coach has streamlined our workflow of writing training programs as well as facilitated communication with our clients. Before True Coach we were using email and google docs- it was cumbersome and time consuming. Switching to True Coach allows us to be much more efficient with our time as well as receiving and giving client feedback via messages and video attachments within their training program.

Cons:

I really haven't had many issues. There will occasionally be a software glitch, but the True Coach IT team is quick to respond and update any fixes that need to be made.

TrueCoach: Truly Amazing!

The biggest benefit I've noticed is a time saver. From dealing with spreadsheets and emails in the past, I was always sifting back and forth trying to find and track information. TrueCoach has made that a breeze, so I can focus more on client service, rather than waste time.

Pros:

What I like most about this software is that it's made for coaches who not only LOVE to program exercise and training programs, but also want ease of use to quickly write programs to see progressions and client results. From the bench mark features, to 'exercise history' features, TrueCoach has it all. I'm able to track any data I want on my clients and see their history with the assessments as well. The notifications work just like Facebook, so there's no confusion on notifications you've seen or not read. The video aspect is HUGE for me and my clients because I like my clients uploading their film of exercises. Through TrueCoach, I'm able to slow the video down, do a screen capture video, and send it right back to them with critiques and praise in a matter of minutes.

Cons:

What I 'don't like' about the software was the transition from 'FitBot' to 'TrueCoach'. I think 'FitBot' was a more fitting name and told people what they were getting, but they wanted to rebrand and come out with an app. The app is knew and has some bugs, so I have my clients save the website on their home screen. It acts better than the app (until improvements are made) and it's more user friendly. It's a growing pain that they'll get past, but it's a slight annoyance for now.

Reasons for switching to TrueCoach

I switched from Trainerize and PT Distinction because TrueCoach is built for coaches who love to nerd out on their clients programs, actually be data driven, and have an easy interface to work with. I just didn't get the same 'ease of use' from the other programs.

Cons:

Reasons for choosing TrueCoach

More personal training specific. The other apps were better for subscription purposes and remote individuals. A true coach is best for in-person trainees for organizational purposes.

Great when I first joined, but waiting for some needed developments

Overall experience is very good but I find the price jump & no. of clients jump from 20 straight to 50 is very big and actually discourages me from taking on about five more group clients that would put me in the 25 range. I had never considered moving from TrueCoach before but I do find more and more of my friends moving and recommending other softwares that have more of the functionality we need as community becomes so online in the age of Corona. Whether this functionality becomes available on TC may well decide whether it remains worth it for me.

Pros:

I love the ease of attaching videos to movements and receiving videos from clients. I also like being able to save workout templates to assign and edit later.

Cons:

I wish there were options to be more social between clients on the platform if they wanted to because this can really help with adherence and retention, even for individual training clients. I also wish that the nutrition side offered more detail - ability to see food logs from MyFitnessPal would be huge and let me get rid of an additional software I have to pay for for this.

Reasons for choosing TrueCoach

At the time I felt TCs functionality was better and I was hoping the nutrition capabilities would be expanded. I have been disappointed on that front.

Reasons for switching to TrueCoach

Their interface is clunky and hard to deal with both on trainer and client side.

Great Software for Self-Employed Personal Trainers

I've loved using TrueCoach. I explored some other softwares but this one stood out amongst the rest. It's easy to use for myself and my clients and they have great customer service. I also love the exercise library, the ability to upload videos, and the options you have when writing/designing workout programs.

The ease of use for my clients and myself. Every once in a while, someone gets confused or has a question but TrueCoach has great FAQs that help with most issues. I also love how intuitive the backend is for me. I didn't feel like I had to do much learning to get in the groove of using TrueCoach.

Cons:

The payment/subscription set up is not my favorite. I bill my clients bi-weekly or every 4-weeks depending on their package and I have to manually go in and cancel and restart subscriptions each month to make this work with my billing schedule.

Reasons for choosing TrueCoach

Easier to use, more intuitive and more sophisticated design.

Pros:

This software is very simple to understand and use for both trainers and clients. The clients have a nice app to use for their convenience. The exercise library has a very good variety, but if you're not seeing what you're looking for, it is very easy to add new exercises to the library. True Coach makes it easy for my clients and I to communicate through the software to share progress and feedback.

Cons:

My only con is that I wish it was slightly less time consuming to create specified programs to input for people.

Reasons for switching to TrueCoach

Trainerize was not user friendly or easy to get used to in my opinion. Creating daily workouts is so much more simple with TrueCoach.

Pros:

It's so easy for clients/athletes to set themselves up. Understanding and tracking their work/progress is impressively intuitive even for the not-so tech savvy. On the programming/coaching side of things, the browser experience is incredibly smooth. Coaches find ways to make programming more efficient every day!

Cons:

The mobile app is great from an athlete standpoint, needs work (start existing!) from a coach/programmer standpoint. Currently, coaches have to program on the browser version on mobile, the UI/UX isn't as seamless as the athlete/client end of things.

Reasons for switching to TrueCoach

Excel Spreadsheets immediately make fitness feel like WORK, where it's supposed to be fun and fulfilling. SugarWOD is more suited for running full CrossFit gyms VS individual coaching.
