Arketa is the best solution for our business

Our experience has been nothing but stellar. We switched from a different studio management software and everything has been so much easier to run since switching.

PROS

The ability to let the customer choose the price they pay for each service.

CONS

The backend is still being updated but it will soon be much more user-friendly I'm sure! And it's still great in the meantime.

Reason for choosing Arketa

Ultimately it was the customer service and familiarity with the industry that made us choose Arketa.

Reasons for switching to Arketa

We needed a software the could implement Pay From Your Heart.

STUDIO Y3's experience with Arketa

My overall experience with Arketa has been nothing but amazing, and I would choose this platform over and over again. The customer service and general support that I have received and continue to receive could not be more efficient and to the point. Also, the overall functionality of the platform is amazing. It is efficient and easy to grasp and get an understanding of. I would recommend Arketa to absolutely anyone in the fitness industry. Arketa was also recommended to me, so I know that I'm not the only one extremely pleased with Arketa's services.

PROS

I love how straightforward and to the point all the functions are, most of all from the backend. Additionally, I could not be more pleased with the customer service.

CONS

I think what frustrates me from time to time is that I need to go out of Arketa and onto stripe to see my net income.

Reason for choosing Arketa

I preferred the value for money at Arketa in comparison to any other platforms. I also find the layout of Arketa much better than any platform that I have used so far.

Reasons for switching to Arketa

Mindbody was far too complicated for me and also the customer service was very slow. It was hard for me to get answers on time and a better grasp of the platform.

They were better when they were Sutra

I signed up with them in 2021. They were amazing. Easy to access, helped with on boarding and trouble shooting and their subscriber events were great. Over time I have referred several people. Since the change in name and I safe assume personnel I would not recommend them ' unless you are tech savvy and have your own website.

PROS

Collects payments Relatively easy to set up schedule Need to improve zoom sync make it easier to edit zoom links House videos

CONS

Poor customer service. They are friendly but friendly is not getting the job done. When they were Sutra they designed my website. That was a HUGE plus. However getting assistance with my website or building out a community (which they strongly promote when doing challenges) could take 5 weeks to 6 months to get resolved. Currently I have been waiting 4 months to get an answer to why my web pop up disappeared and getting it updated.

Reason for choosing Arketa

I needed a host for a library I was creating

Reasons for switching to Arketa

I needed a website or site hat would host an On Demand Library. AT the time Book When only functioned as hosting landing pages

A wonderful system seemingly made for almost everything I need from a software.

Overall experience has been wonderful. Much more affordable and with more features that are useable than my previous software.

PROS

Product is super easy to use and with more features coming out will be even better. Price was on point for the amazing features that already come with it. Additionally, I am not paying extra for a lot of random stuff that I don't know how to use. Amazing customer support and help with setup and integration questions.

CONS

There are some very minor things that I think could be added/changed, but I have been told some of these features were coming so I don't necessarily want to list them.

Reason for choosing Arketa

A Yoga Studio Owner told me about it and I checked into it and it just looked great. Everyone was so friendly and helpful.

Reasons for switching to Arketa

Mindbody was so difficult for everyone to use, including myself and I used it for years. It was almost impossible to get ahold of anyone to ask any questions.
