Comparison
Looking for a Mindbody alternative?
Short answer: BlackBeltCRM publishes every price: $49 to $249 a month by active members, every feature on every plan. Mindbody pricing model: Per location. "Starting at $79 USD/month per location"; the Starter, Accelerate, Ultimate and Enterprise plans are priced by sales. Both ladders are below, checked against the sources listed at the bottom.
Priced per location and quoted by sales rather than published. Here is where BlackBeltCRM is stronger, with both price ladders side by side, checked on 24 October 2026 against the sources listed at the bottom.
The difference that is not a feature
Most membership platforms tell you how many members you have. Very few tell you why they leave — and that is not a screen somebody forgot to build, it is a consequence of how long they have been keeping records and in what shape.
BlackBeltCRM has been running membership businesses since 2011 and keeps the whole record: every status change, every promotion, every attendance mark, every payment. That is what makes cohort retention curves, tenure at cancellation and churn as a rate possible. A platform holding two years of shallow data cannot produce them by adding a report.
Where we are stronger
Price, and the shape of it. Their tiers are priced PER LOCATION, so a second site roughly doubles the bill while ours adds $39. Their pricing page starts at $79 per location and prices each plan by quote; our ladder starts at $49 and our top rung is $249 for any size above 500 members. Every figure of ours is published on a page, and every feature is on every plan.

Switching
The trial is free, asks for no card, and switches every feature on. Bring one program across and run it alongside what you have — that is a more honest test than any demo, including ours.

You import your members yourself during the trial:choose Mindbody in the importer for the steps to export your members, see every family and member before anything is written, and undo it if you change your mind. How the import works. If somebody tells you migration is effortless, ask them to show you your own file first.
