Mindbody vs Momence

Both cover a broad range of businesses and both have a consumer app as well as a branded app option. Mindbody reaches further, into wellness and beauty, and adds ClassPass for business. Momence is built around studios, including dance and indoor cycling, with marketing tools and on-demand content listed in the same product. A studio choosing between them is mostly choosing between breadth and a studio-first product.

Mindbody vs Momence: your questions

Which is better for a pilates or yoga studio, Mindbody or Momence?+

Both serve pilates and yoga studios. Mindbody is broader and brings its consumer app and ClassPass; Momence is more studio-focused. Book a demo of each on your own timetable and judge them on a real week.

Which is cheaper, Mindbody or Momence?+

We don’t quote other companies’ prices, and both change them. Ask each for a written quote for your size of studio that includes add-ons, payment processing and the contract term, then compare the total over the whole term rather than the monthly headline.

Can I move from Mindbody to Momence, or the other way?+

Yes, studios move between them. Before you commit, ask the platform you are leaving what you can export and in what format, and whether your members’ payment details can be transferred. Do the export while your account is still active.

Is there an alternative to both?+

Yes. Strong OS is studio software for single studios that run a timetable of classes, set up for you by a real person. It has no consumer marketplace, so if either app brings you clients, weigh that up.

Where Strong OS fits

Strong OS does one thing: it runs a single studio that lives off its timetable. Class packs and credits tracked per class type, waitlists that refill a dropped place on their own, memberships, payments, check-in and a member app, in one place rather than a base product plus the modules you end up needing.

And it is set up for you. A real person moves your members across with the classes they have left, builds your timetable, memberships and packs with you, and picks up the phone afterwards. Worth a demo on your own timetable before you sign with Mindbody or Momence.
