View profileThis ranking is designed primarily for independent and growing class-based businesses. Value-for-money scenarios are weighted 50% towards solo operators, 30% towards established studios and 20% towards growing multi-site businesses. Scores within one point should be treated as broadly comparable rather than a meaningful difference in product quality.
Overall scores are calculated from unrounded pillar values. Pillar scores and weighted contributions are rounded for display, so displayed contributions may not sum exactly to the displayed overall score.

Support 36.3(1.8 weighted pts at 5%)
Capterra does not publish a customer-service subrating for this product. The Support score therefore uses published support coverage (34/100; 62.5%) and responsiveness evidence (40/100; 37.5%) only and should be treated as lower-confidence. Channels: email, business-hours staffing, knowledge base. Responsiveness evidence (Business-hours ticket portal; strong onboarding, thinner ongoing live help.).

Technical note: no post-calculation calibration is applied. Overall scores use full-precision pillar values; display rounding happens afterwards and does not change rank order.
| Pillar | Weight | Formula |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | 30% | 65% scenario-weighted affordability + 20% core-plan completeness + 10% pricing transparency + 5% contract flexibility. Solo 50% / established studio 30% / growing multi-site 20%. Ordinary card-processing fees are excluded; vendor platform fees are included. |
| Functionality | 30% | 65% feature coverage from the researched matrix + 35% workflow and implementation depth across the same eleven subsections. |
| Ease of use | 10% | 60% Capterra ease-of-use + 40% editorial studio UX (navigation, common tasks, class-native workflows, customer booking). |
| Reviews | 10% | 90% Capterra overall + 10% logarithmic review-volume confidence capped at 3,000 reviews. Trustpilot is supplementary only. |
| Set up & migration | 10% | 70% migration assistance + 30% greenfield setup from published facts. |
| Support | 5% | 60% Capterra customer-service + 25% published channels + 15% responsiveness evidence. If the Capterra customer-service subrating is unavailable, that input is excluded and the remaining 40% is redistributed to 62.5% channels and 37.5% responsiveness, with a lower-confidence notice. |
| Grows with you | 5% | 60% multi-location capability + 25% staff and permission controls + 15% complex operational capability. Pricing penalties are not applied here. |
Appointment-first and salon-first products can look unusually inexpensive while lacking the depth of class-specific workflows expected by studios. The fixed affordability adjustment (0.72) prevents a cheap but less relevant product from being treated as equivalent class-studio value. Product-wide review scores receive a separate fixed adjustment (0.88) when most reviewers may be evaluating materially different use cases.
These factors are named global constants. Vendor classification triggers the rule; arbitrary per-vendor multipliers are not used.
Scenario-weighted monthly software cost is mapped through our published affordability curve with anchors at $25 → 100, about $45 → 90, about $70 → 80, about $100 → 63.5, about $130 → 50, about $180 → 30, then declining toward a floor near 12.
Judges flexibility, edge cases, bulk actions, live membership and schedule edits, failed-payment workflows, waitlists, reporting drill-downs, permissions coherence and whether class workflows are first-class.
An unpublished setup fee is not treated as evidence that a fee exists.
Expensive enterprise tools can still score highly here. Pricing belongs in Value for money, not this pillar.
