Other engines not included. ## The answer, as recorded Asked on 2026-10-20 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5). > The honest answer is that "best" depends mostly on what *kind* of gym you run - a 24/7 big-box with 3,000 keycard members needs very different software than a 90-member CrossFit box. Here's who I'd actually name, in order: > > **1. PushPress** - my default recommendation for small-to-mid independent gyms and CrossFit/strength boxes. Highest user ratings in the category (4.9/5 across ~190 Capterra reviews), genuinely usable free tier to start, and the reputation for support is the best in the space. Weak spot: reporting/analytics are shallower than the enterprise tools, and the member app can feel sluggish. > > **2. ABC Glofox** - the one I'd name first for boutique studios and multi-location groups that care about branding. 4.5/5 on G2, polished member-facing app, strong class booking and lead-capture funnel. Pricing starts around ~$117/mo but is quote-based and scales with member count, so get the number in writing before you commit. > > **3. Wodify** - if you're specifically a CrossFit/functional-fitness gym and want workout *tracking* (leaderboards, benchmark lifts, WOD results) baked in rather than bolted on. 4.7/5, starts around $79/mo. Reporting is the common complaint here too. > > **4. ## Brands named, in the order the engine gave | Position | Brand | How it was named | |---|---|---| | 1 | PushPress | recommended | | 2 | ABC Glofox | mentioned | | 3 | Glofox | mentioned | | 4 | G2 | mentioned | | 5 | Wodify | mentioned | | 6 | Zen Planner | mentioned | | 7 | Mariana Tek | mentioned | | 8 | ABC Ignite | mentioned | | 9 | ABC Fitness | mentioned | | 10 | Mindbody | mentioned | ## Sources the engine cited - https://www.capterra.com/gym-management-software/ (review) - https://www.capterra.com/p/172781/PushPress/reviews/ (review) - https://www.capterra.com/compare/159663-172781/Wodify-vs-PushPress (review) - https://www.g2.com/compare/mindbody-vs-wodify-vs-zen-planner-vs-abc-glofox (review) - https://g2.com/compare/abc-glofox-vs-zen-planner (review) - https://www.capterra.com/p/175281/Mariana-Tek/reviews/2881516/ (review) - https://www.softwareadvice.com/membership-management/abc-ignite-profile (review) - https://www.thepricer.org/how-much-does-mindbody-cost/ (other) Permanent address of this answer: https://bikoosh.com/answers/s/gym-management-software-gyms-2026-10-20 ## Sources cited across the 19 recorded answers to this question Alphabetical; a domain with a record links to it. - 1club.ai (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/1club.ai) - abcfitness.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/abcfitness.com) - aitoolsbakery.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/aitoolsbakery.com) - blog.wodify.com - capterra.ca (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/capterra.ca) - capterra.co.uk (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/capterra.co.uk) - capterra.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/capterra.com) - capterra.com.au (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/capterra.com.au) - club-os.com - clubware.com.au - costbench.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/costbench.com) - dev.to (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/dev.to) - dupple.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/dupple.com) - exercise.com - g2.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/g2.com) - getkisi.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/getkisi.com) - glofox.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/glofox.com) - gymdesk.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/gymdesk.com) - gymmaster.com - gymsense.io - ignite.abcfitness.com - itechguides.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/itechguides.com) - learn.g2.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/learn.g2.com) - managememberships.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/managememberships.com) - medicalresearch.com - offeringtree.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/offeringtree.com) - pushpress.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/pushpress.com) - recess.tv - softwareadvice.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/softwareadvice.com) - thepricer.org (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/thepricer.org) - ustechautomations.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/ustechautomations.com) - wodify.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/wodify.com) - zenoti.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/zenoti.com) - zenplanner.com (https://bikoosh.com/answers/source/zenplanner.com) Alerts and membership: Answer Watch Pro, 79 USD per month: https://bikoosh.com/answers.
