We spent 1 year assessing 19 different systems before settling on Zen Planner. It’s been really effective in making sure all of our schools are on the same page and helped us out massively with our POS and retail. It’s really saved us about 10-12 hours a week per location.

Frequently Asked Questions

ClubWise is a business management solution designed for fitness clubs and gyms. It offers membership management, billing, access control, and marketing tools. 

Pros: 

  • Billing and payment processing 
  • Marketing and retention tools 
  • Member app with booking and engagement features 

Cons: 

  • Limited customization options 
  • Not as user-friendly as other solutions 
  • Primarily designed for larger fitness clubs rather than boutique studios 
  • No built-in martial arts or skill tracking features 

The biggest disadvantage of ClubWise is its focus on larger fitness clubs, which may make it less ideal for independent gyms or boutique studios needing more flexibility. Some users also report that the software can be difficult to customize for their specific business needs, hindering business growth. 

ClubWise is primarily used by fitness clubs looking for a membership management and billing solution. 

If you’re managing a large fitness club and need a billing and management system, ClubWise may be a fit. However, if you’re looking for a more intuitive, flexible solution that provides an all-in-one CRM and member management and integrated digital marketing tools to grow your business seamlessly, Zen Planner is the better choice.

Zen Planner is also more affordable, allowing customers to invest more in growth. Plus, we offer stronger reporting, prospect management, and automation tools were highlighted by customers to streamline operations. 

Zen Planner Studio starts at just $99 per month, making it a cost-effective solution compared to ClubWise, which requires customized pricing and may be more expensive depending on your club’s size and features needed.
