If you’re reading this, there’s a solid chance you’re having issues with your current gym management software.
Thankfully, we have a solution here at WODHOPPER for whatever that specific issue, or combination of issues, might be!
But before we address that, let’s take a step back, and understand what usually brings this problem about.
As a box owner, you have a pretty busy life! But that’s not to say it’s not fun. We know how fun and rewarding it can be to own and operate a gym.
With that said, many box owners tend to be presented with two different sets of priorities and responsibilities—let’s call them branches.
The first branch is external—it’s a promise you make to members that your gym exists to make them better athletes and healthier people. You show these priorities in many ways, ranging from how clean you keep your gym to the equipment you buy, and the quality and dedication of your coaches.
The second branch is internal—it’s a promise you make to yourself that the existence of your gym can be rationalized by profitability, a strong athlete and coach community, and flawless operations.
Balancing these two branches of responsibilities can be really tough! Often, box owners look to gym management software for the answer, ending up with a product that satisfies many if not all of the following needs:
It’s vital for any successful gym to have features like the ones listed above.
Issues like these are common, and they tend to do more harm than good, stripping away efficiency and profitability from gyms that were seeking just that, and making the lives of owners, coaches and athletes harder than they need to be.
Gym owners tend to vary in the solutions they adopt for these issues. Some gyms live with the problem for a long time, accepting it as an unfortunate necessity within the operation of their gym.
The most logical solution is to make a switch to a different gym management software that doesn’t suffer from these issues.
With that said, many gym owners are wary of switching gym management software because they perceive that doing so is a complex, time-consuming process requiring tons of additional work on their end.
But we have good news:
Switching to WODHOPPER couldn’t be simpler!

Gym owners tend to switch for many reasons, usually rooted in frustration for their existing system. Sometimes, gym owners using other software products have experienced specific service issues such as mistakes in the billing of members.

Many gym management software products provide too many membership options, complicating the onboarding process. If the check-in system is too cumbersome, members will stop using it. This results in inaccurate attendance data and can cause you to miss when someone starts to drop off.

A concern most gym owners have regarding making the switch to a new gym management software is time.
Most gym owners don’t want to spend a grueling amount of time migrating data and putting in work to facilitate the switch—and rightly so! Switching gym management software shouldn’t distract you from doing your number 1 job: Training your athletes and running your gym smoothly.
WODHOPPER makes the switch quick and painless
There’s a 3-5 business day waiting process to set up a merchant account so gyms can have funds deposited into their account.
During that time, we complete all the other setup items, such as importing members, customizing emails, adding WODHOPPER links to the gym website and more.
Once the merchant account is live, your system is fully operational! It usually takes around 30-days for the gym to migrate members off the old platform onto WODHOPPER. This can be accelerated with self-service options and emails we automatically send to members to get them going.
At the end of the day, this depends on how promptly your members get on board with the new software. Just like any gym, there are usually a few stragglers, but making the switch as a member couldn’t be easier.
