Which one is for you
Pick Gymdesk if
- Fits if you run a gym of under 250 members and want every feature at every tier
- Works for gym owners who can use Gymdesk Payments in the US or Canada
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you grow: $150 at 101 to 150 members and $200 up to 250
- Watch out: the lower prices need Gymdesk Payments, available in the US and Canada, and your own processor costs $25 more
- Watch out: each extra location costs $50 a month with Gymdesk Payments, or $100 otherwise
- Skip it if you have over 250 members, since that is sized with the vendor
Pick Wodify if
- Fits if you run a CrossFit box or a gym and want performance tracking next to booking
- Works for a gym that wants one app for both coaches and members
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want to see prices, as the page shows none
- Watch out: workout tracking is an add-on below the Ultimate plan, and the custom website is Ultimate only
- Not for you if you text members outside the US and Canada, as SMS is limited to those two
- Tight if you use the AI assistant a lot, as credits are set per plan and extra usage fees may apply

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
