See why Australian service businesses are switching from Mindbody to BookAndGo
“Mindbody is an enterprise platform priced and built for large multi-location chains. BookAndGo gives solo PTs and small studios the same booking power for a fraction of the price — with no contract, no 8-week onboarding, and your data hosted right here in Australia.”
A side-by-side look at what you get with each platform.
Mindbody is a powerful, long-established platform for large gyms, studios and wellness chains. It is feature-rich and connects to a consumer fitness marketplace, but it is expensive, takes weeks to set up, locks you into annual contracts, and stores your data in the US. For solo trainers and small studios it is usually overkill — and overpriced.
BookAndGo's Professional plan is $59/mo flat — the sweet spot for personal trainers. Mindbody starts around $195/mo and climbs past $900/mo, billed on annual contracts. You get the booking, payments and marketing tools you actually use, without paying for enterprise scale you don't.
Your client data is hosted in Sydney and complies with the Australian Privacy Principles — not stored offshore in the US. BookAndGo issues proper AU GST tax invoices with your ABN out of the box, so your books stay clean and compliant from day one.
Clients get reliable SMS reminders from a dedicated Australian number, and can even book by texting our conversational bot. Card-on-file no-show protection means empty slots from last-minute cancellations stop costing you money — without the enterprise price tag.
Mindbody's onboarding can take around eight weeks before you're taking bookings. BookAndGo is self-serve: sign up, add your services, and your booking page is live in about five minutes. Start your 14-day free trial today — no credit card, no sales call.
Mindbody ties you to an annual contract with a reputation for being hard to leave. BookAndGo is month-to-month — stay because it works, not because you're locked in. Cancel anytime, no penalties.
Mindbody is genuinely strong for large chains and its consumer marketplace can drive discovery. But that power comes with complexity most solo trainers never need. BookAndGo is purpose-built for one-to-twenty-provider businesses — everything you need, nothing you don't.
