Art studio owner Arts and Crafts Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I live MyStudio for my art studio!" March 1, 2024 5.0 Overall My Studio is amazing and a NECESSARY for my business to run smoothly. Pros I own an art studio and needed an easy waybfor costumers to sign up. After calling and searching 9 different software companies I finally found MyStudio. This software is just what I needed because it's easy to use (once you play around wih the settings). They also have instructional videos to help you. Their chat is also very helpful. This software is also very affordable for me. It is well worth the money because I don't have to manually charge anyone or save their info. This software gives me automated costumer payments for my memberships and workshops. The app, as a costumer, is also easy to navigate and purchase. MyStudio business insight gives me information on how much money a certain class or workshop is bringing in. Overall, this is what I needed for my business to run smoothly. \[sensitive content hidden\] helped me navigate the system when I first looked into it and answered all my questions. This is an actual person and not a robot chat. Cons I would like yo be able to send invoices regarding my business and quotes via email but haven’t figured out how to that as well as square.

He did not shy away to any question I presented. He actually had solutions. Pros Today’s presentation was fun and felt like the new software implementations were up to date. Many of my past challenges have been now fixed or answered. Cons At this time I did feel disappointed. I enjoyed meeting \[sensitive content hidden\] & many other team members that genuinely appeared happy to help in any way possible.

Owner/Chief Instructor Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My experience with MyStudio" July 12, 2022 3.0 You seem to be an upstart company with well-intentioned staff in positions they may not have the expertise to fulfill but do have the desire. You would do yourselves thousands of favors if you had an "install" team that travelled to your clients and completed an initial set-up process. Pros Frankly, this is the first software management we have used at our school. Previously, we did everything by hand, spreadsheet and through our bank. We do not have other product experience for comparison in this industry. Having said that, we like having the ability to communicate with our students, manage banking and payments and the ability to set up retail sales through the app. Cons The software is not organized in a fashion that is intuitive to me or my staff. There are too many clicks and prompts to get through in order to complete a simple task. An example is that in order to communicate with the entire student body, you cannot use the communications tab. You are forced to use the "All Customers" tab. This is counterintuitive. There, as far as we know, is no method for "fulfilling" multiple retail orders simultaneously. There are more but you get the point. Reason for choosing MyStudio Referral Review Source JC Jancel C. Strength and conditioning coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "One of the best organizational tools," March 19, 2025 5.0 For my personal needs since I have a one-on-one personal training studio and I have classes as well and I'm looking to expand the system works well for me. Setting up programs ahead of time has been bringing in Revenue keeping everything consistent. If I have to go off script there is tech support or a teacher to help me out Pros The instruction the process was done very well and every class was videoed I also got quick responses when I had a problem. Cons The pay processing is not right away like you see in Clover go or a point of sale. It does take a little bit getting used to automatic payments and setting up a system. They do have a point of sale but it's very rudimentary but I know they will improve. Reason for choosing MyStudio Century martial arts developed a product and taekwondo schools use it and they're very profitable. Switched from [Clover Sites](https://www.capterra.com/p/186916/Clover-Sites/) I needed something that would automatically charge the client in a program mode. I was doing too many options. It also has a landing page capability. So you can link all the links up to the website Review Source MJ Mike J. Instructor Consumer Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Succeed with My Studio! " July 3, 2025 5.0 I Love everything about My Studio. My Studio is very helpful with my business and helps my business to be more efficient. Pros They are very helpful and supportive. Especially Jennifer! She is always there when I need her and always on top of things! Cons I'm not sure, I have had 2 other platforms like my studio but My Studio is so much better and offers so much more than the other platforms. Review Source MP Matthew P. Martial Arts School Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "MyStudio and NEw Richmond Martial Arts " March 19, 2025 4.0 It has been awesome and the ataff are super friendly and accessible for all my questions. Pros It is User friendly and the app makes it easy for my students to access impotant information. Cons There are a lot of work arounds for certain processes. I would also like to be able to send invoices for all types of revenue streams other than memberships. Alternatives considered [Martialytics](https://www.capterra.com/p/136339/Martialytics/) Reason for choosing MyStudio I was Referred to MyStudio from a peer and he has be3n having great success, so i decided to give it a try. Switched from [Rainmaker Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/198198/Rainmaker-Platform/) MyStudio is more up to date and user friendly. Review Source AR Alec R. Owner, Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for limited staff facilities" December 17, 2024 4.0 I started when MyStudio was new so it had limited features compared to what was coming down the pipeline. I was a one-person show at the time and it was designed for exactly my needs but as I grew my team I found the needs not being met enough. I wanted a more robust online portal, and then COVID hit so everything shifted. I went back to MyStudio hoping the features I waited for became available after 3 years. Some were better, others were still in waiting. It was increasingly difficult to run detailed reports for my monthly needs so I moved on. I specifically did not renew my annual license but they charged me an entire year on my renewal date despite records showing they wouldn't. I spent four months trying to reconcile with them, which they finally did reverse the charge. Pros Simple, easy to track basic financials and growth. Best customer-facing app available. Customer service was awesome. Best event management in the business. Cons I started when MyStudio was new so it had limited features compared to what was coming down the pipeline. Great if you need less hands-on customer interaction but not so great if you like the more conventional business model of managing clients directly. Alternatives considered [Spark](https://www.capterra.com/p/169855/Spark/) Reason for choosing MyStudio As the new guy in the industry at the time, it was cheaper and less cumbersome for our purposes but I ended up moving to Spark 2 years later anyway. Switched from [Zen Planner](https://www.capterra.com/p/134351/Zen-Planner/) Offered much simpler interface and mobile-friendly options while scaling business back to a single operator. Became less ideal as I grew the facility back up. Review Source PS Philip S. OWNER Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Love the MyStudio App" March 25, 2024 5.0 It was easy to learn and adapt to our Studio. We converted everyone over with in 1 month, and integrated with our website using "Frames". Super Easy! Pros Very helpful to manage my student base and the payments for my members. And allows for them to sign up for membership, classes, events, everything within the App  Cons The only thing it doesn't do for me s to integrate with my current Testing Sheet format and to keep a master list of my students testing ranks. We are just used to an old system in excel. Alternatives considered [Mindbody](https://www.capterra.com/p/40229/MINDBODY/) Reason for choosing MyStudio Price point was my biggest contributing factor in choosing MyStudio, although the price has increased since I signed on. Review Source LW Lindy W. Owner Chief Instructor Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Decision I Ever Made for My Martial Arts School" December 26, 2023 5.0 Switching to MyStudio is by far the best decision I ever made for my martial arts school. Pros Customizable app for my business - Ability to have members register themselves for events and programs - push notifications and texts to members Cons It's not yet connected to Quickbooks. I wish they would get that done ASAP! Alternatives considered [Spark Membership](https://www.capterra.com/p/229881/Spark/)[Zen Planner](https://www.capterra.com/p/134351/Zen-Planner/)[Kicksite](https://www.capterra.com/p/131168/Kicksite/) Reason for choosing MyStudio I chose MyStudio because it was less expensive and I wanted to support a company growing from the ground up! Switched from [Mindbody](https://www.capterra.com/p/40229/MINDBODY/) The cost kept going up - up - up. I started paying $29 per month. When I switched the price was up to $79 and going up. Review Source JR Jose R. Chief Instructor Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best customer support ever" January 29, 2026 5.0 Since the new support plan, I feel more confident in operating the application and I feel that it is worth what I am paying for!! Pros MyStudio has been a great tool for my school, but the best upgrade by far is the new support team. What I love most is that I can schedule a live meeting with a real expert. I get one-on-one training, clear answers, and step-by-step help on how to use the app to its fullest. That kind of support makes a big difference when you’re running a business and don’t have time to guess. I also really appreciate having a personal representative I can reach out to anytime I have questions. My representative is patient, professional, and always responds to my emails quickly. I never feel rushed or ignored. This level of support shows MyStudio truly cares about helping their clients succeed, not just selling software. Because of that, I feel confident using the app and growing with it. Highly recommended. Cons I believe it is fix now, have your own support representative and the ability to schedule a group training, is what I needed Review Source SV Sarah V. Co-owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "MyStudio Software for Martial Arts School" May 4, 2021 5.0 Customer service and availability of the MyStudio team has been exceptional! Through the set up process to the day to day running of our business, their team has been willing to listen and help at every step. We are very pleased with the value MyStudio adds to our business. Pros MyStudio has allowed us to seamlessly register students for events, enroll students in classes, manage students rank progression and sell merchandise through multiple point of sales avenues. Their easy to use landing pages have helped us increase our bottom line and streamlined our registration processes. Cons There student database is not as robust as software systems we have used in the past. Exporting the student database to create lists in a spreadsheet does not include values that would be very helpful. User interface is sufficient but uninspiring.

We're taking all of your thoughts and we will share them with our teams as we continue to upgrade the system. RW Reece W. Owner Sports Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It removed 10-15 hours of work for me." May 3, 2021 5.0 Great product. So happy that I switched from Rainmaker. Pros There are a number of features that I like about this product. Here are a list of a few of them: -Auto emails when payments don't go through -Students find their own answers in the app saving me time -Having a branded app helps build my company brand -Options to allow trials to pick their first day and they get promoted to watch my onboarding video automatically Cons \-You can't do discounts codes for specific retail items -You can't set up Brand Ambassador discount codes and see their sales all in one spot -I wish there was an auto template that I could plug photos and text into for emails instead of trying to copy and paste into MyStudio Alternatives considered [Mindbody](https://www.capterra.com/p/40229/MINDBODY/) Reason for choosing MyStudio Price was a huge factor. Also this system seemed to be more geared towards martial arts schools. Switched from [RainMaker](https://www.capterra.com/p/130861/RainMaker/) The price was much better and the system was wayyyyy more user friendly. Review Source Response from MyStudio May 22, 2021 Hello Reece, We are so glad to be able to serve you and are happy that you are happy! We will continue rolling out new upgrades and we look forward to you enjoying them! JB Jessica B. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best switch ever!" July 12, 2022 5.0 It has been great! I’m super happy that I can save money by not having to pay the credit card fees and they can be rolled into each students account Pros Easy to use! Easy to set up! Aesthetically pleasing and modern Cons I wish there was a way to schedule private lessons. There is a way now, but is not functional for my business. Once they incorporate the scheduling software/private lesson management, I will completely switch over to My Studio Switched from [Mindbody](https://www.capterra.com/p/40229/MINDBODY/) To save money on Credit card fees. We have not fully switched until my studio gets the private lesson scheduling situated Review Source RT Ryan T. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best investment I’ve spent " April 28, 2021 5.0 MyStudio has been amazing. I would have spent so much extra money and time if I had not given this software a try. Pros Once set up, MyStudio makes my life so much easier! Keeping track of ranks/ promotions is a breeze, the app is amazing, the best customer service I’ve ever experienced, billing is so easy, you can just focus on your classes and not worry about your software. Cons The initial set up took some time and was tedious, but it was all worth it in the end. As far as getting your app published on the App Store and Google play, I think Mystudio has since made some changes to make it easier and they do some of the work for you. Reason for choosing MyStudio I found it early, read some good things about it, start of the free trial and fell in love. Switched from [Kicksite](https://www.capterra.com/p/131168/Kicksite/) Mystudio had many more features, an app, and was going to save me more money Review Source Response from MyStudio May 22, 2021 Thank you for your review, Ryan!

Instructor Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great operating system" March 6, 2025 5.0 Pros Easy to use, with lots of functions to run a studio Cons I really dont have any issues with the platform. Its very straight forward and easy to use with excellent customer care Review Source RW Robert W. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "MyStudio is modern, professional, and easy to learn and use" July 7, 2022 5.0 I’m very happy to switch over from Zen Planner which was feature rich but overly complicated and had a dated and clunky user interface. The best part of MyStudio is that I can copy paste links for enrollment and retail purchase links into texts to my customers, they love it, we love it! Pros MyStudio has a clean and modern web based interface. There is a minimal buttons to learn while providing all the features necessary for martial arts enrollment management. Cons I would prefer the ability to speak directly to support or correspond via email as opposed to chat. I haven’t figured out if there are tutorial videos to learn about features that I am not yet familiar with such as automations and the CRM. We are currently using Market Muscles integrated (provides website opt in lead information)with Go High Level as our CRM… I would be interested in using MyStudio as my CRM but I need the capability to schedule and track appointments for new students and automated lead nurturing… the way I have it setup now, the website directs the prospect to a google calendar appointments page (provides by Go High Level) where they can schedule their own first free class Alternatives considered [RainMaker](https://www.capterra.com/p/130861/RainMaker/) Reason for choosing MyStudio Rainmaker is too expensive Switched from [Zen Planner](https://www.capterra.com/p/134351/Zen-Planner/) Recommendation from another school owner Review Source JA Julie A. Office Manager sounding board for owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MyStudio has SAVED our studio" June 30, 2023 5.0 Overall exerience is: It SAVED our studio during COVID. They treat you like a person not a number and make things individualized and TRULY care about their customers. They truly get to know you and your needs and WANT to see you succeed. Pros MyStudio has made the enrollment process a simple click of a few buttons. The app is so user friendly that ALL parents/students can use. There isn't any hidden surprises or fees or anything... the buyer feels comfortable in what they are enrolling in and what the prices are. What used to jam up our studio enrolling people took an extra employee dedicated to it and at least an hour every night to do so. NOW I don't have to have the extra employee and I can concentrate on instruction of students without distratction. Cons Sometimes I don't like that things are ever changing and developing and I have to learn the "new" way to do it, but honestly..... it's just me not the software. MyStudio simply changes things because they are ever improving and LISTENING to their customer and the needs and wishes. Review Source tA taehwan A. Operations Manager Consumer Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "You must have MyStudio for your business! " June 28, 2023 5.0 I don't have anything else to think about switching other software but keeping MyStudio. MyStudio offers everything that I need for my business. Pros Mystudio has been so helpful ever since we decided to use it. Especially, managing trials and memberships has been so much easier such as enrolling memberships, and following trials with automated emails and text. over 90% of our membership has been through customers' phones using MyStudio App. No more Paper!!! Cons MyStudio has been great most time. MySutio has lots of tools to customize what you need for your business. I feel like I use 10% of what MyStudio offers... Review Source JR Jalyn R. Owner Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good for the Price" July 7, 2022 5.0 Overall it is good for the price. We went with them because they were the cheapest at the time. Pros Easy to set up automatic billing, easy to charge a card on file. Keeps up with student info easily. Cons It is set up to where the customer does everything. We want to make everything as easy as possible for our customer so we want to handle everything for them. We had to figure out how to do that with MyStudio. Review Source LM Lauren M. CEO Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Satisfied but still working on things." July 19, 2022 5.0 Overall I am satisfied with this program. There are still sections of the app that I am not happy with, however, the parts that are beneficial outweigh them. I would recommend it to other school owners with the warning that you will need to put aside plenty of time to set it up. Pros I like that this software is a "one-stop shop". I am able to chat with students, on-board new members, process tuition automatically, and upload curriculum. My favorite part of the app is the ability to have students purchase programs, events, and merchandise without a live staff member assisting them. Cons I did not like the labor-intensive set-up process. While I'm proficient in tech, the back-end requirements needed to get started were frustrating and overwhelming. I also don't like that the customer service team treats me like a novice after setting up and using the program for over three years. While I appreciate that they approach users in a standardized way, it wastes my time when I have a higher level question. Finally, I do not like the multi-step check-out process. It's a barrier to sales and can get frustrating to work through. Review Source Response from MyStudio October 11, 2022 Thank you for your honest review and for being a long time client. We offer "white glove service" that can help you get set up, so if that is something you are interested in, please let our team know! JC Joshua C. School owner Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Potentially Great" April 28, 2021 4.0 Pros \-links to memberships that I can text or message people -easy payment processing -quick reports Cons \-My biggest complaint is I feel very unappreciated as a long time customer. I was an early customer the first year MyStudio was created when there were few but several promising features to come. I recommended the company to many school owners. I stuck by them through their growing pains as a Premium White Label customer. Now, they have deemed me a non-premium customer and have created a new tier with new features that are inaccessible by me unless I upgrade from what was promised as their premium membership and is now an old, outdated plan. I understand the need for growth as a company, but as a businessman, it is very poor customer service to downgrade their premium members to make way for a new, more expensive premium membership option. It has been very disappointing, and when I’ve mentioned it, it was basically addressed as not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. That it was still cheaper than other software platforms. Reason for choosing MyStudio The price Review Source Response from MyStudio May 22, 2021 Dear Joshua, Thank you very much for being a part of our community, and for joining us early. We appreciate you! With the creation of new membership plans, our intention was not to take anything away from our legacy plans -- we still continue to update and add new features to them. The newer plans, which include features that do incur additional costs to develop, are set up so that those offerings are economically feasible. Again, we appreciate you and we appreciate our legacy members! KS Kellie S.

Master Instructor Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MyStudio just gets better and better!" May 6, 2021 5.0 Fantastic experience. Offering the opportunity for potential clients to just sign up from the App (or the URL they also provide) has not only saved us a tremendous amount of time but it has also saved us money. The front desk kiosk feature has all but done away with having to require a front desk person. Pros That they keep the end user (my members) experience in mind first. This make my business look professional and stand out from my competitors. Cons Nothing really. When MyStudio first released (2018?) they were missing some options I would have liked, BUT they were constantly updating and improving the needs and requirements of users and that is impressive and appreciated.
