Compare Striive to Bookwhen for your fitness business
Striive vs Bookwhen for your business accounts
Striive saves you time and effort with business accounting – even when it comes to doing your tax return. Striive supports online and offline client payments, and records your P&L data. You can view it within your Striive account, or export it as a report (your accountant will love that!)
Bookwhen supports online and offline payments, but it won’t store P&L data and doesn’t let you run financial reports.
Striive vs Bookwhen for your fitness clients
Striive collects client data like their goals, contraindications to exercise, and emergency contact details making life much easier for you and the client.
Bookwhen only collects email, phone number and client name.
Striive vs Bookwhen for selling 1-to-1 sessions
When you have a Striive account, your end users have access to a client area (and individual client profiles) where they can check their bookings, messages, notifications and even request private sessions.
Bookwhen doesn’t support private sessions, so if you want to offer 1-on-1 sessions you’ll have to create a one-person class and offer it to the client which is a manual – and clunky – solution.
Striive vs Bookwhen for managing renewable subscriptions
Striive allows you to create renewing subscriptions and offer the option to clients very easily.
