What it costs for 10, 30 and 50 clients

We calculated these monthly totals from the prices on the vendors' pages. Our assumptions:

  • Monthly billing. Bennu Starter covers up to 50 clients for €34/month, or €329/year with annual billing.
  • Trainerize prices come from its pricing FAQ, with monthly billing. Trainerize says that annual billing saves 10%. The plan cards on the same page show lower prices (for example USD 9 for Grow), which may be the annual prices.
  • For 10 clients you need the Pro 15 plan. We did not find its price on the page, so that total stays open.
  • For 30 clients we use USD 79/month, the lowest price that the Trainerize comparison table shows for 30 to 100 clients.
  • The second Trainerize total adds the two add-ons that cover what every Bennu plan includes: scheduling (Business add-on) and meal plans (Advanced Nutrition Coaching).
  • We do not convert US dollars to euros, because exchange rates change.

How to switch from Trainerize to Bennu

Bennu has no import tool for data from other apps today. We suggest that you move in steps and use both apps for a few weeks:

  1. 1 Before you cancel Trainerize, save what you need from it: client details, programs and progress data. Check in Trainerize which exports it offers.
  2. 2 Create a free Bennu account. The free plan covers 3 clients, so you can test Bennu with real clients first.
  3. 3 Add your clients and invite them to the client portal.
  4. 4 Rebuild the programs you use most as templates. The built-in library has 259 exercises with videos, and you can add your own.
  5. 5 Set up your check-in form and choose daily or weekly check-ins. Add session credits for clients who have paid for sessions.
  6. 6 When you need more than 3 clients, the organization owner can start one 30-day trial of a paid plan in billing. It does not charge you automatically.

If you leave Bennu later, you can export your client list as a CSV file.
