Owner

The customer service is TERRIBLE, the subscription is VERY expensive (not to mention it changes almost every year), and it is the WORST to set up correctly.

Singing Teacher / Vocal Coach

Excellent support at deployment stage; good customer service response times; very friendly staff; used to be market leaders; possibly good functionality but only available at premiums packages.

Psychotherapist and Wellness Center Owner 

I liked the brand recognition and all the features available for business intelligence. We were glad to have the Livestream option available for classes.

Director

Awful company and system. I have been a customer of mindbody for 4 years now and their level of customer service has got worse and worse and their prices have only increased.

Marketing Manager

I recommend Mindbody for most of my beauty & wellness clients -- it offers an all-in-one platform that is tailored to their needs, and is extremely user friendly.

Manager, Upskilling

Overall there is no other comparable software that suits our needs like Mindbody does. Thank goodness for their excellent customer support.

Pediatric Social Worker

I have contacted them when I was charged more than once and it took forever to talk to someone. After speaking with a representative the problem was not fixed.

It was awesome in the beginning. I started with them 10 years ago when they were inexpensive, responsive, simple and nimble by improving every month.

Project Manager

Finding any type of fitness class is super easy with this app. They also run deals so trying something new, whether it be Barre, Yoga, or Boxing, is made super easy with this product.

I love how customize-able Mindbody is. We were really able to tailor it to fully fit our needs and adjust a ton of settings to make it perfect for our use.

Solutions Engineer

I love the ease of use of Mindbody - it was the first of its kind for booking workout classes and now I don't know how I could live without it.

Massage Therapist

Did not allow for multi business integration. Terribly pushy sales reps. I felt bullied into buying it.

Operations Manager

I have never been so frustrated and disappointed with a product before.

The app can be buggy at times (sign-in issues, booking errors, long loading times) which has lead to frustrated calls from customers of my clients.

owner

I hate to say it, it's just a bad system. Waiting for the next software that caters to studios and makes things user friendly.

Manager

It also has some good app options and a nice integrated marketing suite.

Volunteer

I liked the clean UI of the backend. It was easy to find a customer and add services/classes.

No features are missing for us. We find a lot of customers do not have the app.

Kicksite

Customer Service was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. I love how the site was very user friendly.

Owner / Sensei

It has made everything so easy and their client service is top notch. As a result we can focus on our most important asset, our students.

Owner/Chief Instructor

The automatic communication and attendance tracking is a great time saver. The student check in works great and helps motivate students to attend.

The interface is simple which is great for someone like myself who does not like clutter. Their customer service staff is helpful and surprisingly delighted to help.

Kicksite has saved me so time, time that I am spending doing what I love which is teaching martial arts. Anytime I have a question Kicksite customer service goes out of their way to help me.

Program Manager/co- owner

I thank her for her great attitude, and willingness to help. What a perk to know that I can have her on the other end of the phone, to guide me through my questions.

Senior Master Gonzalez

I believe Kicksite has  great customer service , a program to meet my needs and very patient personnel that are willing to help and  that is why I am glad I found them.

Going on a year with Kicksite as a customer this August and I have been extremely satisfied with the program, its capabilities, and the great customer service I have always gotten.
