Glofox Software

Pros

I like how they offer you the support on set up for 1.5 hours.. It makes my job easier for my clients that I refer over to get their POS software. Easily get your store up and running with some awesome features USA hours and 24/7 customer service which I have not had to use yet..

Cons

Just my personal opinion I just hate to pay a monthly fee but for what you are getting in this package compared to others.. Must say the value is there

I would recommend Glofox because they are working to fix the things that are missing and are making improvements to the software. Plus it is so easy to use!!!

Pros

User friendly, Support is prompt and helpful, clients with membership find it easy to book class, check in kiosk is great, very easy to use and set up.I am not a tech person and I had no trouble. I had a glofox specialist help me with any questions and set up for the first month. I can still contact him now if I need anything

Cons

missing some features that would be helpful when holding free events, app tells new clients that they are not eligible for a class instead of redirecting them to membership or package options so clients have to go to memberships first before they can book a class, needs to be all one step. no good way to have childcare schedule so have to set it up as a class and clients get confused.

Pros

Super easy to use and the app associated makes its great for our members (booking classes, check push notifications from us, and paying for services).
Support are awesome, our account manager is the man, always ready to help us through any problems or questions.

Cons

Like any new software system, just takes getting used to, but other than that nothing that bad. Support team are amazing and help you through it all.

Although I've invested little time in becoming more proficient, the support provided by my representative, has been good.

Pros

I like most that it keeps track of my appointments. Specifically, how many sessions a client has left and when clients' memberships expire. That being said, creating and selling memberships, including charging, is a fantastic feature.

Cons

Although I find it a little confusing at times, e.g., creating a membership, class, or course, admittedly, I've invested little time in becoming proficient in this.

I actually believe that their after sales service would be as good as their caring "sales" experience because even though support team knew it wouldn't work for me he still really helped me, and took the time to work out what I wanted to see if they could do what I needed in the future and pointed me in the right direction, companies like this are few and far between, I WANT to work with them! I'm a raving fan even though they can't help my weird business model!! x

Pros

After contacting 18 CRM companies (and getting robot responses) Glofox was immaculate! support team truly took the time to understand my business and was so honest and helpful, can't rate them highly enough

Cons

It doesn't fit with my business at the moment (I'm a tricky customer) but hell, if it did, I'd be with them 100%....I really rate them

I would really recommend Glofox for anyone interested in bringing booking systems online to their gym etc. We love it and our members find it so handy to use.

Pros

Glofox is easy to use & the webinars are brilliant help to getting set up! Been using it in our gym the past few months and we've had zero issues. Any query I had, I was replied to ASAP which was great.

Cons

tbh i've no cons about this app. Glofox is so easy to use and I would recommend to anyone asking about it.

We spent a long time researching different studio software options and Glofox has definitely helped us make big technological strides forward from the app to check in kiosk capabilities. Though the retail aspects are second tier, these aren't our top priorities either at the moment. Would definitely recommend trying the demo and exploring Glofox to other yoga studios.

Pros

The interface for both our staff and students has been far more intuitive and easy to use than our last program. The reporting is clear and the app has inspired more online bookings for classes. Check in is starting to run more smoothly giving our teachers more time to focus on class and less time dealing with frustrations with a clunky system at the desk. The way the system is set up also allows individuals to navigate it in different ways that make the most personal sense to them rather than forcing everyone to learn the exact same steps. Customer service has been very attentive and responsive as we've made the transition to Glofox which is much appreciated. We have felt supported through the whole process so far. The more we learn about the program the more customized we've made it to our needs which has been great.

Cons

The only cons so far are minor tech capabilities we're hoping to see evolve soon. You can only sell one retail item at a time, though there are some work arounds. We would also like to be able to check our teachers and staff into class and sell them retail items without creating separate student profiles. In the grand scheme of operations these are small details that haven't derailed us and we look forward to seeing upcoming changes with the program.

Great product and would recommend to a friend.

Pros

Makes running my gym alot easier. And the customer support (Adam) has been very helpful and understanding with it.

Cons

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this product. Sometimes there is issues with the app but I feel they are just some small glitches and seem to get fixed within the day.

Glofox is simple and easy to use. If you have questions their support team is fast and are able to help with any issues.

Pros

The app on the phone so I am able to track attendance and emails letting me know who has signed up for what class is awesome.

Cons

When there is an issues for instance with the app it could take till an update to be fixed. There are no other cons.

Pros

Customer Service: It nice having a human to actually talk to when problems do arise. Being able to communicate with someone makes the PR that much better and alot easier to use and get help for the program.
Ease of use: This program is simple yet amazing. It is super easy to understand and really makes Clients and managers lives much easier

Glofox developed a members management software with an integrated booking and payment system providing our fitness club with the perfect business solution.

Pros

The App is easy and convenient for our members to use.
The best feature of our new Fit2Go Club App is that it was a custom branded mobile app with our own branding that could be downloaded from both Google Play and Apple stores.

Cons

Ideal solution for our needs - no specific cons.

Advice to Others

Given that our primary demographic and the prevalence of App and mobile phone usage by students, this is the perfect solution for us.

High Definition Fitness has been open for a little over two years. At the beginning, we took bookings for fitness classes over the phone. This became unrealistic as HD Fitness grew and grew. Glofox developed a booking application for the gym and it gives the power to members and 'pay as you go' clients to book fitness classes up to a week in advance without having to contact us directly.

Pros

The application has saved us a lot of time which can be utilised doing other tasks in the day to day running of the gym.

Cons

The staff at Glofox were always on hand to answer any questions we had regarding the app and their support network is top notch! Can't fault it!

Advice to Others

Glofox were a pleasure to deal with during the development stages of the app and with training on how to use it to our maximum benefit. So even if you're not really strong on the tech front, this will be the perfect solution for your gym.

After doing a whole lot of research I came across Glofox. I have been signed up with them for a year now and to be honest I've not looked back.The software does everything I need and more.
Customer support is 100% and that has been consistent throughout the year. They have always been friendly, patience and very helpful, for that alone I would recommend them.
I love using the software but what is better is my clients love the app. I was redesigning my website and thought it was a novelty, but actually it has been much more than that.
I am very happy with Glofox and would highly recommended them.

Pros

It's easy to use, clients are really impressed with the app. Its cuts down on admin so saves me time. I can now reach everyone with push notifications and clients can be responsible for their own classes which again saves me a number of emails and calls.

Cons

I would use the shop if there was a shipping option. To allow therapists to be able to access their part of the app to adjust their personal schedule.

Advice to Others

Go for it!

I'm not very good with technical stuff so I didn't think an app would be good for me, might give more stress than it's worth. I was wrong , it's fool proof (example- ME !!!)

All my clients tell me how good and easy it is to use, I'd be lost without it now, 90% of my customers use it to book with me and I can see how classes are doing for the week ahead. Payments go through very speedy from customers. Can't fault it , wouldn't have a business without it now.

Pros

Easy to use

Cons

Payments don't reach my bank until the following week but I don't think that's Glofox's fault.

My experience with Glofox has been fantastic. The training was very easy to follow and their support team made sure I had everything I needed to get up and running - very understanding and always happy to help out with any queries.

Pros

The admin dashboard makes it really easy to keep track of my class schedule, memberships, payments and overall member activity. If you want to spend more time than ever before with your clients helping them achieve their goals, you need a system like this! The reporting section of the dashboard makes it effortless to monitor our performance: sales (by class, membership, course or even trainer), first time visits, bookings and attendances etc. This is great for identifying areas of the business that have room for growth. The app itself is so simple for our members to use. They can easily book their class or course and even pay for it straight through the app. If there's an update or news that I need to circulate fast, I can do it with the app, minus the hassle of calling up clients or wondering if they opened the email or not. These push notifications through the app are a great way to promote new classes or courses too. People see our messages on the home screen of their phone almost as soon as we send them and they can book in on the exact same platform. The perfect way to increase bookings and keep the momentum going! Not to mention, a great way to generate new leads. We can promote the app and encourage potential members to download it and get a taste of what we have to offer.

Cons

It would have been great if we found Glofox sooner!

Advice to Others

Don't overlook a software like this and what it could mean for your business. The team at Glofox are committed to helping you stay ahead of the competition. The value of that alone is so much more than what their competitors have to offer. 10/10 Glofox!

Since opening my Yoga business 4 years ago, I found keeping my students engaged and keeping on top of my cash-flow was challenging. From working in some yoga studios I was using their online booking systems to check in students and payments. I found other systems cumbersome to do the most simplest task.
One studio I hold yoga classes was (and still is) using Glofox and thought this was so much easier to do book, check in and receive payments, all online! I contacted Anthony from Glofox and showed me how easy it is to set up, and share with my clients.

Pros

Payments are processed by another Irish company called Stripe. This is an additional module to the Glofox suite but it is coupled with the simplicity and seamless completion. This gives me and my clients an Excellent Customer Experience.

Cons

If I do encounter issues with memberships and sometimes issues with students not able to book a class, support is only an email away or on their website, with a very quick response it is sorted. No delay and supporting the above mentioned, Excellent Customer Experience.

Advice to Others

I would be happy to recommend Glofox to Freelance Yoga and Pilates teachers as well as existing Yoga studios.

Great product, great customer service. Our members love the app, the first thing they always mention is the ease of use and professional design. It has everything we need from setting up membership subscriptions, pre-paid memberships to class bookings, courses, offers, promotions and much more. Delighted with the product, I would highly recommend Glofox to anyone looking for a membership management app.
