## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-22 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Quick caveat before the list: nearly every "best gym software 2026" page is published by one of the vendors themselves (Zen Planner, PushPress, Wodify, Zenoti all run these roundups), so the rankings are marketing. What follows is my read, weighted toward review-site data and pricing rather than those posts.
> 
> **1. TeamUp** - My default recommendation for a single-location boutique studio. It's the least annoying option: clean class booking, payments, and member comms without the bloat, and it has the best support reputation in the category (~4.6 on G2). Starts around $119/mo for up to 100 active clients, with free data migration. Main gap: no custom-branded member app, and CRM/sales tooling is thin.
> 
> **2. Glofox (ABC Glofox)** - The pick if a branded app matters to you. Best-in-class mobile experience for members, strong for class-driven boutique formats (yoga, pilates, barre, HIIT), good integrations. Costs more than TeamUp and pricing is quote-based, which means a sales call.
> 
> **3. Mindbody** - Worth it for one reason that no competitor replicates: the consumer Mindbody app is a genuine lead source, putting your classes in front of people already searching for a studio in your ar
