FAQ Key things to know
How does bsport stand up against larger, legacy fitness software?
Many studio founders are starting to feel the limits of Mindbody’s legacy technology, from slow updates and clunky tools to reduced flexibility and frustrating workarounds.bsport is built for boutique fitness and wellness studios today, with a modern platform that stays flexible as you grow.
What is the advantage of belonging to Mindbody’s marketplace?
Unfortunately, Mindbody’s marketplace isn’t quite what it seems. It prioritizes the wider network, placing your studio alongside nearby competitors and pulling bookings away from your brand — unless you pay extra for a branded app.
bsport includes a member app that carries your own brand (not ours), and connects directly to your website. Members book and manage everything in one place: yours. For extra visibility, bsport integrates seamlessly with ClassPass, Urban Sports Club, Wellhub, and Wellpass.
How does bsport pricing compare with Mindbody?
bsport pricing is clear and predictable, with no hidden fees or lock-in. You pay for what fits your studio today, and adjust as you grow.
Is migration from Mindbody to bsport complicated and risky?
Not at all. Migration is fully handled by our dedicated team. Your clients, memberships, and bookings are transferred securely, with no manual setup and minimal disruption. Most studios are surprised by how fast and easy it is.
It took me ages to learn how to use Mindbody. Does bsport have the same learning curve?

Who are Mindbody’s competitors?

The right alternative depends on what your studio needs most, whether that’s branded booking, easier scheduling, stronger support, clearer data access, flexible marketing tools, or a smoother member experience. bsport is built specifically for boutique studios that want to own their member experience without adding complexity.
What is Mindbody’s M&A history?
Mindbody has grown through a long series of acquisitions and ownership changes. The company acquired businesses including FitMetrix and Booker in 2018, was taken private by Vista Equity Partners in a transaction valued at approximately $1.9 billion in 2019, and later acquired ClassPass in 2021.
In 2026, Playlist, the parent company of Mindbody, Booker, and ClassPass, completed a merger with EGYM. This history reflects Mindbody’s evolution into a much broader fitness, wellness, and marketplace ecosystem, while many studios looking for a Mindbody alternative are often searching for something more focused, flexible, and built around their own brand.
