Mariana Tek is class booking and studio software for cycling, Pilates, yoga and barre studios, with a branded member app and multi-location control from one login. No price is published for any of its three packages, marketing automation sits above the base one, and it is a narrow fit outside class studios. - **Value for money: C.** No price is published. All three packages are booked through a demo, so there is nothing to set against the $49.90 middle of the category. - **Free plan and trial: F.** No free plan and no trial on record. You see it only through a demo request. - **Features: C.** Schedule, packs, memberships, branded apps and kiosk check-in on the base package. Email and SMS automation start at Core + Growth, so the listing shows gaps in the base job. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. A studio has to set up its schedule, offers and branded app before members can book. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web plus iOS and Android apps, including a staff app and kiosk check-in. No integrations are listed. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Mariana Tek's own pages on 12 November 2026.

The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/service-booking ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace Mariana Tek you would be making texts to thousands of numbers, registered with the carriers. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 19 of the 33 other salon, spa and studio booking apps grade higher. - You could make: Class booking and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Texts to thousands of numbers, registered with the carriers. - You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool.
