A Pike13 replacement needs to handle the way your instructors' time is sold. Group classes reserve participant places; private lessons also depend on the availability of a particular teacher. Compare both booking processes if your business offers individual services alongside its class program.
Acuity Scheduling focuses on provider appointments and also supports group classes and package codes. TeamUp supports class memberships alongside private coaching and workshops.
Which alternative fits your business?
| Your main requirement | Start with |
|---|---|
| Private appointments and the provider’s calendar are the main requirement | Acuity Scheduling |
| Class schedules and membership tiers define the offer | TeamUp |
| Scheduled group participation, future visits and public-event tickets | Gomry |
Give instructors and customers the right view of the same purchase
A service business may have an owner reviewing payments, an instructor recording attendance and a customer changing a booking. Each person needs a different view, but the underlying purchase must remain consistent. When replacing Pike13, list those roles and the records they actually use, including any recurring billing or instructional information.
What Pike13 already covers
Pike13 documents classes and appointments, client management, recurring billing, reporting and mobile tools. It also offers client, staff and check-in app experiences.

Alternatives shortlist
Acuity Scheduling when the provider's calendar comes first
Acuity Scheduling focuses on provider appointments and also supports group classes and package codes. It is an alternative when private lessons depend on the availability of a particular instructor, rather than only a session's participant capacity.
Acuity’s Standard plan includes packages and recurring billing with up to six calendars: US$34 a month, or US$27 a month with annual billing, before taxes and payment processing. Calendars represent provider or location availability, making it relevant when private lessons depend on a particular instructor’s time.
TeamUp for class memberships with coaching and workshops
TeamUp describes configurable schedules and membership tiers, including private coaching, additional sessions and workshops. It also offers migration assistance.
TeamUp’s monthly fee scales with active customers in the previous month. Membership rights can cover classes, private coaching and workshops, so a studio can preserve several offers without treating every purchase as an interchangeable class pack.
Gomry for group classes and separately ticketed events
Gomry supports a teaching business selling scheduled group places and prepaid return visits. Set each Experience's dates and capacity, then offer a Bundle for one class or a selection. A customer buys the visits first and reserves an eligible available date when using credit. Special Events have separate tickets, while Contacts keeps purchase and attendance history together.
Subscriptions provide recurring access to eligible Experiences; organization-wide Membership Levels are separate from those bookings. If private lessons also move from Pike13, preserve the instructor's appointment availability as a distinct requirement alongside group capacity.
Gomry has no monthly platform subscription. Standard USD online ticket sales cost 3.9% + $0.79 per paid ticket, plus processing. Online Bundle fees apply once to the total pack price, including one fixed fee per purchase. Subscription fees apply once per payment, initially and at each renewal, with one fixed fee per charge and separate processing. Bookings fully covered by credits or included access add no service or processing fee. See currency-specific fees and conditions.
Mindbody
Mindbody supports class and appointment scheduling, payments, staff management and reporting. Its consumer app adds a discovery route outside the studio’s own website; its business tools serve the team running the operation. The fitness offering also describes marketing automation and an AI Concierge for customer questions and bookings.
WellnessLiving
WellnessLiving describes client management, staff permissions and payroll, forms, reporting and payment/POS tools alongside scheduling. Its staff app supports booking clients into classes and managing purchases. It is relevant when reception needs to handle several parts of a visit, such as registration information, payment and a booking adjustment.
Momence
Momence supports classes, courses, workshops and appointments, with capacity settings and booking restrictions. Its automated waitlists address what happens when someone leaves a full session.
Bookwhen
Bookwhen supports session and course registration, with passes and memberships on applicable plans. A course can represent enrollment in a sequence, while a pass can support eligible future visits. Its public API is read-only and directs booking through the booking page.
PushPress
PushPress separates its offering into Core for gym operations, Grow for CRM and marketing, and Train for workout-related tools. Its site documents memberships, billing, scheduling, check-ins and digital waivers.
Glofox
Glofox documents memberships, credit packs, booking, billing, a branded app, CRM and multi-location tools. It also describes automated handling of failed payments.
Which records matter beyond a customer’s name and email?
Upcoming reservations, remaining purchases and any recurring-payment obligations determine what the customer can use next. Staff also need the records appropriate to their role. A contact export alone does not recreate those commitments. This is why the owner, instructor and customer views should remain distinct in a Pike13 replacement plan.
Moving from Pike13: costs and existing purchases
Acuity Scheduling. Acuity accepts CSV customer and appointment imports, including a separate row for each class attendee. Its documentation explicitly excludes packages, gift certificates, subscriptions and appointment payment information. Those purchases and ongoing charges must be handled separately from the calendar import.
TeamUp. TeamUp’s assisted switch includes customers, forms, memberships, unused class-pack uses and billing dates. Future class reservations still need to be accounted for separately in the changeover. Saved payments can continue when the same Stripe or GoCardless account is used; other setups may require customers to re-enter payment details. Old billing must stop at the agreed cutover to avoid charging members twice.
Gomry. Keep contact records, remaining paid visits and confirmed bookings separate in the move. A customer's email does not by itself describe the visits owed or reserve their existing date. Retain each purchase and booking record, and agree how those commitments will be honored before changing the timetable. Coordinate the end of old recurring billing with the start of the new arrangement so customers are not charged twice.
