TeamUp alternative

TeamUp runs group classes. TrainStead runs training.

TeamUp is well-liked class and membership management for group-class businesses, with straightforward booking, recurring payments, and an easy setup that owners praise. If you run group classes, it's a capable tool.

A personal training studio is a different animal, and TrainStead is built for it. Your work isn't class rosters and membership billing, it's programming, tracking real client progress, and running sessions. TrainStead puts scheduling, client programming, progress tracking, messaging, and studio analytics in one place, priced per trainer with unlimited clients.

What you get with TrainStead

The trainer's toolkit, not a class calendar. Build and assign individual programs, track each client's progress and nutrition and cardio, message them in the app, and see at a studio level who's drifting before they quit. Where TeamUp is built around the class schedule and the roster, TrainStead is built around each client's individual program and their progress, so a packed calendar never gets in the way of one-to-one coaching.

Who should still use TeamUp

Group-class businesses that run on class booking, rosters, and membership billing. If your business is memberships, use membership software. If your business is training people, use training software.
