Instead of Mako

Mako alternatives

Mako is built for fitness studios that want attendance-based retention work alongside CRM operations. Pulse compares recent visits and rebooking with a member’s usual pattern, then supports internal follow-up. The CRM covers customer records, bookings, classes, memberships, invoices, payments, staff and reporting. Clients book online, studios can import compatible attendance files, and Stripe payment processing plus two-way Google Calendar sync support scheduling and collections. Mako runs on the web, offers a free Pulse plan, and paid CRM starts at $159 per month.

Alternatives make sense when you need mobile apps, salon-focused workflows, different booking channels or a lower starting price. Mako CRM locations include 1,500 outbound US SMS segments per monthly usage cycle, with sending paused after that allowance. QuickBooks Online is marked in progress. Before switching, compare attendance and retention tools with appointment handling, client records, POS, payments, staff controls, marketing, messaging, integrations and platform coverage. Trial terms, free-plan scope and whether your business needs fitness-specific workflows should also guide the choice.
