Studios switching from Momence often talk about support and day-to-day usability. To make this easier to compare, here is a simple breakdown of how Momence and StudioGrowth differ across pricing, contracts, support, and data access.
| Feature | Momence | StudioGrowth |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $200 base, commonly $400–650/month with higher tiers and branded app | $95–250/month depending on features, plus $150/month for an optional branded app |
| Transaction fees | 3.9% + $0.30 per transaction (around 1% higher than standard Stripe rates) | Standard Stripe fees only (no markup) |
| Pricing transparency | Pricing not listed publicly | Clear pricing listed on the website |
| Contract length | 12 month minimum | Month to month |
| Support model | 24/7 chat support by first-line agents, with escalation for complex issues | Direct support from the team building the product |
| Support consistency | Strong during onboarding, slower for complex issues over time | Consistent support before and after onboarding |
| Reporting | Basic reports, limited flexibility | Detailed reporting built for studio owners |
| Data export | Limited export options | Full CSV export. You own your data |
| Product innovation | Ships features quickly and iterates fast | Steady, feedback-driven development |
| Industry coverage | Broad fitness and wellness coverage, including gyms, spas, and salons | Focused primarily on yoga, fitness, and Pilates studios |
| Company ownership | VC-backed, later acquired by private equity | Founder-led and employee owned |
Pricing is indicative and you will need to speak to Momence to get exact figures.
This comparison reflects feedback from current and past Momence customers, along with public reviews on Capterra and Trustpilot.
Most studios do not leave Momence because it is a bad product. The issues usually appear later, often between month six and twelve.
Based on feedback from current and past Momence customers, these are the most common reasons studios start looking for an alternative.
| What studios run into | What they experience over time |
|---|---|
| Pricing that grows with success | Monthly costs increase as features, staff, or a branded app are added. Transaction fees mean software costs rise as revenue grows, roughly an extra 1% on every payment. |
| Support that changes after onboarding | Support is responsive early on, but more complex issues often take longer to resolve later. |
| Reporting and workflows that feel limiting | Reports are basic and everyday tasks like check-ins or sales require more steps than expected. |
| Feeling locked in | Long contracts, limited data export options, and migration effort make switching feel risky even as frustration builds. |
If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Many studios only start looking for an alternative after trying to make Momence work for longer than they expected.
"We used Momence before and paid $200/month plus 3.9% + $0.30 per payment. Way too expensive for a small studio."
"Customer service are polite but they use a script and it is infuriating. They also have almost no understanding of the app or how it works. The answers they can give are very very limited. After spending a long time going round in circles explaining to them their own app, they then escalate it to the developers. The developers usually take a week, or more to reply."
Our core team works directly with you from onboarding to day-to-day support. The people helping you are the same people building the product, so issues get understood and resolved quickly.
