CEO
5.0

Eric J.: My name is Eric. I'm the managing director and office manager for Body Basics Wellness Center in Reisterstown, Maryland. Our company is about one to 10 employees, and I would rate WellnessLiving a five. We currently use WellnessLiving as our CRM, which is our customer relationship database. It basically holds all of our customers. We book appointments, schedule appointments. We do all of our transactions through the application. We also are able to produce reports, track sales. We do marketing from it. Another of other features that we use internally, we're able to communicate with clients through email, through text message pretty seamlessly. We also use it to do marketing campaigns through social media as well as through email outlet. What else we use it for? We also use it for our reviews. Customer reviews are done in WellnessLiving similar to what they would do in a Google Review. So, we use all of those things on a day-to-day basis. The thing I like most about WellnessLiving is it's very user-friendly. It was easy to interface with it or integrate it into our current network. Not a lot of ramp-up time to get it really going in initial setup and implementation of it. The staff was very friendly, very patient, but also worked to expedite the process of getting us up to speed, so we could launch quicker than our anticipated date. I also liked the layout of the application. The functionality is very easy to learn. It's not cumbersome. The navigation around the site is pretty fluent. It's very flexible and it was easy for us to train our staff and for us to really learn it in a very quick time. The thing I dislike, or it's a little frustrating, is when you have some issues, maybe functionality or something else going on, there is a little difficulty getting a response quicker than you would like. So I know they're working on that, but that turnaround time can be a little bit frustrating, just waiting to hear back from the staff or the management there. So, that's been the most challenging thing. Again, I know they're working on it. They use a community form for you to put new issues and bring up current issues to see if other people have brought those issues forward, and you can look in that form to see if there's answers for your issues, but that's probably one of the most difficult things is reaching out to them and then taking a while for them... I say a while, but at least twenty-four, about forty-eight to seventy-two hours sometime, before you hear something back from them.

Small Business Owner

Channell H.: Hi, I'm Channell, small business owner. I give FitSW a five out of five rating. For more reviews like this, click below. Before FitSW I tried Trainerize, but app didn't quite work for my growing business. I needed demos. I needed direct client contact. It just wasn't quite the level of customization that we were looking for to make sure that we were delivering custom programs, rather than cookie cutter programs to our clients. I chose FitSW because the customer service and the management was extremely responsive. After I started working with FitSW, I realized how amazing they were at delivering to our custom needs. As a newer company, we had a lot in common, and it was really fun to see them growing, and listening to the feedback from their small business customers. For us, it was really important that we could deliver customized value to our clients. We could provide exercise libraries. We could make sure that we were chatting with them in real time, and delivering the inspiration we wanted to. Getting started with FitSW was easy. The customer service was great, and I was able to get walked through all of the products, the features, and the offerings. They have great guides that allow you to figure out what you're doing, and communicate that to your customers. If you're considering using FitSW, I highly recommend that you download a free trial, and reach out. FitSW can connect you with businesses like mine, or you can use their standard version. FitSW does offer custom apps for small businesses, where you can work with their business partners, or you can work with them directly. No matter what you do, make sure that you reach out, send an email, and start a free trial.
