# Mindbody vs WellnessLiving vs ABC Glofox for independent gyms and fitness studios: which gym management platform do health and fitness teams find easiest to adopt with minimal implementation risk?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Quick take first: based on the reviews, WellnessLiving and ABC Glofox both get credit for smoother onboarding experiences than Mindbody, though Mindbody's larger footprint means more people have actually lived with it long term in this <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/gym-management">gym management</a> space. Here's the fuller comparison for anyone choosing between these three specifically for ease of adoption.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/mindbody/reviews"><strong>Mindbody</strong></a>: reviewers describe a genuinely useful platform once running, but onboarding experiences are mixed, including one reviewer who described billing configuration errors, being assigned an onboarding contact in the wrong time zone, and confusion over two different website widget versions during setup.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/wellnessliving/reviews"><strong>WellnessLiving</strong></a>: reviewers repeatedly describe hands-on onboarding specialists and fast, responsive support during the transition, with more than one reviewer specifically calling out how smooth the initial setup felt despite the platform having a lot of functionality underneath.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/abc-glofox/reviews"><strong>ABC Glofox</strong></a>: reviewers across several different business types, a children's learning center, a Pilates studio, a yoga studio, all specifically praised the onboarding experience as excellent and stress-free, even when the initial setup itself took some adjustment.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">For anyone who's actually gone through onboarding with one of these three recently: how much of a good or bad experience came down to the software itself versus which specific onboarding rep you happened to get assigned?</p>

&lt;p&gt;The onboarding rep lottery isn&#39;t captured in aggregate ratings. Two studios on WellnessLiving can have completely different first-month experiences depending on which specialist they got assigned.&lt;/p&gt;
