Here's who I'd actually name, in order:\n\n**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.\n\n**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.\n\n**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.\n\n**4.", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
