PTminder Software

PTminder is a good essential

Pros

It does what is advertised and that it certainly does help maintain your business by keeping your schedule together on a weekly basis. Intuitive and clean interface. Makes managing your business finances much easier.

Cons

Not much to dislike other than that it is fairly expensive for what it does.

Not for someone who is detailed...

Pros

I like the idea to provide vast programs for diverse clients but the freedom is limited. I also think that having your clients message you on here or receive updates via the app is pretty cool.

Cons

As i briefly mentioned, this app limits you to how much you may customize each workout. When having to create different workout intensities it can become tedious and takes a ton of time. Especially if you make a mistake.

The lifeblood of a personal trainer!

I went from having to use several different apps and tools to keep my personal training business in order. But all that changed when I started using PTMinder. I can't recommend it enough!

Pros

It's an all-in-one stop shop for personal trainers. It's easy to use. Helps me schedule my appointments and keep my finances in check. It's made my life and business so much easier.

Cons

There's not much not to like. A few hiccups here and there. Have to reset the app. But it works fine after. I have heard that they will be incorporating Quickbooks and I'm really looking forward to that.

Great addition to your business

PT minder is a great way to do business, it provides the tools to ensure your business has a professional outlook to our customers.

Pros

The online support service provided is outstanding. Support has been available 7 days and all staff are willing to help. The software is easy to implement and saves time

Cons

N/A. all issues have an easy workaround

Great PT software system

Pros

Easy to use and update, captures all relevant information.

Cons

Sometimes the accessibility of information could be improved.

P1 Training

Great for creating classes. Easy to track direct debits. Easy for members. App is everything you need and nothing you don't.

Pros

Simple to easy. Lots of common sense based programming. Customer service is fantastic.

Cons

Some of the pop ups are a touch annoying?

My saviour

Pros

I love that is is so easy to use and I can use it anywhere from my iPad or mobile. This program makes my life so much easier!

Cons

I haven't found anything yet that I dislike about this program. It's super easy to navigate, easy to access while you are on the phone to clients.

Best value product I've seen/used with excellent customer service.

Very helpful in running a group fitness or personal training business to keep everything organised.

Pros

Great value product with all the features you need to track and manage clients (group or personal training). Ease of use is very good and the software is very practical. Not overpriced like many other similar software providers. With some help from customer service, I was able to integrate PT Minder for my clients with my existing website. They are fantastic in customer service, very friendly, helpful and reply very quickly. I run boot camps and this software is great for me. Would highly recommend this product.

Cons

The assigned workouts (workout planner) is pretty simple, no pictures apart from a muscle man diagram, can't select multiple specific muscle groups used in custom exercises. The video search just goes to a youtube search and you can't pick a specific video to come up. It does work alright though.

PTMinder is a great tool for small business owners

Pros

If you starting your own Personal Trainer business, you should check this out, this is a very easy to use system.

Cons

It has a very easy to use website, its rich in features. It also comes with an App that I think needs to be refined a little, but that might be the problem with just how much space is available on a mobile

Very similar to Trainerize, this has a unique approach for programming

Pros

This app/software was similar to Trainerize and I liked it more for it for its freedom in customization (i.e., appearances, logo, color, etc.). there was a sense of ease using the software as well. I think what was also great was the notification my clients would get when I send them a message on the app. Its pretty cool to have some form of professionalism while using technology.

Cons

So I did say the software is easy to use but its very rigid with how much you are actually able to do. For example, the workouts and videos are fixed for what they have but do not (or did not) offer room for you to input your own like Trainerize does. Customer service seemed money hungry than focused on my own needs but that's my opinion. Maybe they have grown from our feedback and made changes.

It started out bumpy. Being they are overseas it was difficult to get support.

Client management and scheduling seem to be the biggest attributes. The ease of scheduling and editing is a plus also, the app comes in handy.

Pros

Great for scheduling, p&l, client management, client reminders and invoicing. It helps keep track of current client as well as leads and previous clients.

Cons

It doesn't link with any other software like quick books. As mentioned earlier the support is hard being the are in a completely different continent.

Great, easy and has doubled my income!

Pros

Everything. The diary is so easy, in depth and the programs are easy to create and simple to follow. I like that I can create meal plans and the auto confirmation of session has saved me so much time on a night.

Cons

I would like to see an option to record motivational videos weekly for clients to see when they access their dashboard

Great set up. Very professional and affordable

Runs my business

Pros

Customer support and detailed setup. Very quick to answer any questions, very good features. Covers a lot of details and impressive capabilities

Cons

Sometimes stalls. Experiences troubles loading and then fails. Usually comes good, couldn't figure out sessions so I used classes for everything

Great scheduling app that lets you focus on building your client base rather than managing it!

Really helps me manage my day to day activites

Pros

I always used a combination of different Microsoft programs and calendars to organize my clients and schedule. This would involve a lot of time each day and PTminder has taken all the stress away. Now I can keep all my clients and keep track of their progress in one place.

Cons

I like pretty much everything but if there is one thing I dont like it's the percentage that Stripe takes from transactions.

Best PT software on the market

Pros

Best PT software on the market! I love it how complex, yet simple to use. You have every function what you need to make your life much easier.

Cons

The least I like about the software? NOTHING! The staff is amazing, always there to help you via chat.

Great!! Awesome website!!

Pros

The functionality and ease of use. I'm able to track my expenses and keep track of client payments.

Cons

I'm not fond of the Stripe payment method. The fees are too high. That is the only thing I don't like about the software.

Terrible Software!

Pros

Using the software is easy. The software has the capability of being great if they cannot fix the customer service and keep the software from locking me out and having to constantly reset my password. It's very inconvenient. It's embarrassing and unprofessional.

Cons

The software will lock you out and the customer service is horrible. It even deactivated my account right when I was in thr middle of scheduling clients and trying to see my availability. Having to chat with them before you can get through on the phone is annoying especially when clients are waiting on you. Also, when I finally did get through to talk to someone. I heard a baby crying in the background as well as a lot of noise. It was distracting on top of already being frustrated. It was unprofessional and it's not how I want my business. It's embarrassing to have clients in front of me while I'm trying to access my account to schedule them and being told my account was deactivated. I am very disappointed.

Great quality. Has most of the controls I want minus a few functions.

Session tracking was the most important thing I needed and this fulfilled that role perfectly.

Pros

The Session reporting and membership functions. I enjoy having the clients sessions to be tracked to specific dates. I also enjoy the ability to send notifications to the client about their upcoming sessions.

Cons

Lack of ability to split payments on memberships to a specific date. Currently cannot have the payment split to a specific date and instead rolls by a week/month pattern from the date selected instead of the number. Also there should be the ability to have clients have calendars specific to there off day workouts. The ability for my clients to then check in that they did the work on their off days would help a lot.

Helpful for the day to day management of my business

Pros

All of the features are very useful for the nature of my business. The general reports are very helpful in allow me to monitor as aspects of my business.

Cons

The minimum term for membership is 1 week. It would be good if there was an option for 1 day because I have walk-in rates for members which I have to set up with a 1 week expiry date. Which means that after they complete the walk-in, their membership will still be on the system for the next 6 days.

I use the software as the check in point for members when they come into classes as well. In order to check how many classes they have left on the membership it requires some time to go into the system to find the relevant information. eg. Click - client management > select member > Package/membership/prod > view schedule. If this process could be shorten it would be more helpful for front line staff.

Easy to use, has some glitches

Pros

Easy to use, simple experience. I love how it handles sessions, payments, assessments, etc.

I also really like the waiting list feature.

Cons

Some calendar features are a bit "clunky" and I wish it had a few additional features.

App is glitchy - appointment modification doesn't work as it should.
