Outreach Specialist Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "A Convenient All-in-One Platform for Managing Personal Training" November 6, 2026 5.0 I can create personalized workout and nutrition plans, monitor the progress, and keep track of the training activities all in one place. Having everything organized on a single platform saves time and lets me focus more on achieving the fitness goals. Pros What stands out most about FitBudd is how it brings so many parts of running a fitness business into one place. It’s a big plus to have workout and nutrition planning, client progress tracking, scheduling, payments, and communication tools all within the same platform, since it keeps everything more organized and easier to manage. The AI workout assistant is another interesting addition, and it can help make creating personalized workout plans more efficient. Cons I’d like to see more flexibility when it comes to customizing meal plans, as well as better options for organizing exercises. Review Source CEO Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A Powerful Fitness Tool" September 21, 2026 5.0 Pros I love that it’s very user friendly and I’m able to create programs for all different fitness levels. It’s definitely worth it and since I’m new to using it on my platforms, I’m looking forward to how it will help scale my Fitness Business!!! Cons I haven’t seen anything that I really dislike at the moment because I’m still getting use to it so it’s premature to give an unfair assessment. Review Source Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Simple and effective" May 31, 2026 4.0 Overall, I’ve had a great experience saved a lot of time and it’s mine with complete ownership. It’s simple not overcomplicated. It is a bit of a learning curve and I do wish that the FitBudd library exercises were kinda just one library instead of two separate ones or at least be able to mass at the FitBudd library exercises to mine. Pros I like the white label, branding and being able to customize it to exactly what I want. The cost is pretty compatible with other brands and the customer service when needed. Something done is pretty top-tier. Cons Some features that other platforms have I wish FitBudd would add and make it more modernized. Like being able to upload PDFs they already have it populate the workouts for me already. Review Source Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Change Fitness has grown thanks to FitBudd!" April 22, 2026 5.0 FitBudd has been instrumental in building and scaling Change Fitness into a streamlined, client-centered coaching experience. The platform combines training, nutrition, messaging, and progress tracking into one intuitive system, allowing me to deliver high-touch, personalized coaching at scale. Its strongest advantages are ease of use, client engagement, and overall value. While there are opportunities for deeper customization and expanded content libraries, FitBudd remains a powerful, all-in-one solution for modern fitness businesses. Pros Ease of use, client engagement, and overall value. In this order: Value for money. Client experience & support. Coach & customer support. Messaging & communication. Business & brand growth. Security & data handling. Cons Opportunities for deeper customization and expanded content libraries. 1. Customization Limitations: While branding is strong, deeper customization (advanced workflows, niche needs) can be limited. Some users report wanting more flexibility in features and templates. 2. Exercise & Content Library Gaps: Exercise library may not be as extensive as some competitors. Some content relies on GIFs vs. high-production video (unless customized). 3. Platform Nuances / Workflow Constraints: Scheduling structure (e.g., weekly flow) can require manual adjustment for client start dates. Occasional syncing or mobile vs. desktop functionality differences reported. 4. Advanced Feature Depth: For highly advanced coaching models (clinical-level nutrition, deep analytics), additional tools may still be needed. Some features are evolving rather than fully mature.

Looking forward to getting more clients to upgrade my plan to see what other features are available. Pros The personalization is my favorite part. Being able to customize the website, and app is awesome. Plans are easy to set up. Pre loaded meal plans, exercises, and routines help drastically. Really gave me the confidence to launch my own online fitness business. A++ Cons Only thing is it doesn't sync to Google fit. Apple and Fitbit a plus but Google fit would edge it out.

They do not help their customers and only care about you buying their product. Pros I like the marketing and on boarding. But the more I used the app the more I found out it was all a sales scam to get me to buy. Nothing they said worked. Cons Everything! They promised me I could track sessions with clients buying session packages. I couldn’t even schedule My clients. Then the worst part was they said my customer could pay with card and AMEX. None of my clients could pay me because of their faulty system. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) It wasn't becoming user friendly and becoming over complicated to use.

Great success with client engagement and very minimal sleek app design. Cons Wish the coaching app would have more features for creating workouts and editing the all rather than going into browser. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) I didnt like the user interface. Nor customer support.

Pros Ease of use and top not support. FitBudd offers members all they need to become a successful online fitness coach. They leave nothing for chance. Cons Not enough body weight exercises in the system. Although they offer exercises with video demonstrations, they could expand on there non gym equipment exercise library. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) It was not that user-friendly. That is on of my biggest pet peeve.

July 10, 2025 5.0 My overall experience using the app has been great. I find it user-friendly, efficient, and full of helpful features that support my work with clients. The design is intuitive, which makes navigating through exercises and planning sessions easy and time-saving. I especially appreciate how the app continues to improve with regular updates and new features that reflect user feedback. This shows a strong commitment to quality and growth. While there are a few areas that could be refined—such as reducing time lost to ads when using YouTube videos and adding an assessment section—the app as a whole has been a valuable tool in my daily workflow. Pros I really appreciate the way you continuously work on improving the app by adding new features. It shows that you're listening to user feedback and committed to making the experience better for professionals like me. However, one thing I find frustrating is the time I waste whenever I try to show an exercise video on my tablet, especially if the video is hosted on YouTube. The ads that play before the actual content slow me down and interrupt the flow of my sessions. It would also be very helpful to have a built-in assessment section to streamline evaluations and track client progress more effectively. Cons Every time I demonstrate an exercise using my tablet, I waste a lot of time dealing with ads—especially if the video is from YouTube. This disrupts the flow and wastes valuable session time. I’d also really appreciate having a dedicated assessment section integrated into the system and making it more sports performance.
