WellnessLiving vs. Studio Planner: A Cost Analysis

WellnessLiving is often the first stop for refugees fleeing Mindbody's price hikes. And while it is generally more affordable, it suffers from the same "Feature Bloat" syndrome.

The "All-in-One" Trap

WellnessLiving tries to do everything: email marketing, loyalty programs, video hosting, and zoom integration. That sounds great on a feature list, but in practice, it means you are paying for 10 tools when you only use 2.

The Rental Focus

Neither WellnessLiving nor Mindbody are designed for Rentals. They are designed for Memberships.

If your business model involves renting space to independent instructors (who bring their own students), those platforms fight you every step of the way. They want you to register every student in your database. They want to charge you for "active clients."

Studio Planner is different. We understand that the Instructor is your client. We handle the B2B relationship between you and the teacher perfectly, including insurance verification and recurring slot management.
