What’s the Difference Between ABC Trainerize and Everfit?
The main difference between Everfit and ABC Trainerize is how far each platform takes you. Both let you build and deliver custom workout programs online, handle client communication, and manage payments.
Where they split is at the business layer. Everfit is built for individual online coaches and small teams who want a clean, intuitive experience at a lower price. ABC Trainerize is built for coaches who are scaling, with built-in referral and lead tools and support for larger operations like studios and gyms.
Everfit wins on simplicity. ABC Trainerize scales with your business.
Client Engagement and Retention Tools
Both platforms cover the essentials, such as habit tracking, automated check-ins, progress tracking, reminders, and community features.
ABC Trainerize’s Business add-on ($25/month) bundles referral tracking, shareable booking links, and client sign-up flows into one package. This gives you tools to actively grow your roster while reducing client dropout through automated habit tracking and accountability features.
Everfit’s Autoflow add-on (from $29/month) automates check-ins, progress tracking, and admin tasks, so you spend less time managing and more time coaching.
Business Management and Scalability
ABC Trainerize scales a solo trainer business into a multi-trainer team operation without switching platforms. It handles automated client onboarding, intake forms, Stripe payment integration, plus a custom-branded app available as a one-time $169 add-on for Pro plans and comes included on Studio and Enterprise plans.
Everfit also handles payments and team features well. But if branding matters to your business, especially when you scale, you’ll need to upgrade to the Enterprise tier for the custom-branded White Label App.
If you’re a boutique studio owner or fitness influencer who wants a branded client experience without an Enterprise price tag, ABC Trainerize offers it at a much earlier stage.
Client Experience and Mobile App: ABC Trainerize vs. Everfit
ABC Trainerize gives clients a fully branded experience. Included in the Studio and Enterprise tiers, you get unique app store listings and custom icons for both iOS and Android, as well as a themed navigation bar and in-app interface, and a custom welcome video, shortcuts, and links.
On the Pro plan for a $169 one-time fee, you get a custom app icon on iOS with a shared ABC Trainerize store listing on Apple’s App Store, a custom Google Play store listing without a custom app icon, themed navigation bar, and the custom welcome video.
Moreover, the client portal covers workout tracking, progress photo upload, habit check-ins, nutrition tracking, and in-app messaging in one place. Push notifications keep clients accountable between sessions. Coaches also get a public profile on Trainerize.me for client discovery.
Everfit’s client app consistently earns praise for its clean, modern design and ease of navigation. Clients track workouts, log nutrition, upload progress photos, and message their trainer easily, with no friction at all. White Label App is available on the Enterprise plan.
If you are just starting out with a smaller roster, Everfit’s clean, modern interface and lower entry price make it easy to get going. But as your client base grows, ABC Trainerize’s client app goes even further, with your clients getting a fully branded experience.
Simplicity cuts both ways. Everfit’s ease of use comes from doing less: it’s fast to learn precisely because it doesn’t ask you to configure much. That’s a real advantage on day one, and a real limit once you want more than the basics. ABC Trainerize takes more setup time up front because there’s more underneath it — the tradeoff is that your clients get the simpler side of that equation: a clean app experience without you needing to piece together a second tool for anything more advanced.
Pricing and Value: What Do You Get for Your Money?
Here are the pricing plans of Everfit and Trainerize to help you choose the most cost-effective platform for your business, billed monthly:
ABC Trainerize:
- Basic: Free, 1 client
- Grow: $10/month, 2 clients
- Pro: Starts at $25/month for 5 clients, up to 200 clients
- Studio: $275/month per location for up to 500 clients, up to 1000 clients
- Enterprise: Contact sales for businesses managing 1000+ clients
Everfit:
- Starter: Free, up to 5 clients
- Pro: Starts at $19/month for 5 clients, up to 300 clients
- Studio: Starts at $105/month, up to 500 clients
- Enterprise: Contact sales for businesses managing 500+ clients
*Annual billing also available.
Regarding add-ons, Everfit charges separately for automation, nutrition, and payments across all plans, with On-Demand Collections being the only add-on included in the Studio plan. Costs can add up quickly if you’re scaling.
ABC Trainerize’s Studio bundles all add-ons, including Business, Advanced Nutrition Coaching, Stripe Payments, Video Coaching, and the Custom Branded App at no extra cost, so you get a more predictable total price. For lower-tier plans, both platforms offer add-ons separately.
The short version by business size: under roughly 30 clients, especially if you mainly need workout delivery without the extra layers, Everfit’s base price is usually the cheaper option. Past that, once you’re paying for Everfit’s automation, nutrition, and payment add-ons on top of a larger plan, the total often runs higher than ABC Trainerize’s bundled Studio pricing — where those same tools are already included.

What Coaches Say After Trying Both
We hear a consistent pattern from coaches who’ve used both platforms:
- “The only other app I’ve tried is Everfit and I don’t love it. I think it’s too simple.”
- “My clients’ feedback from the Everfit app is, it’s a bit… it’s not great. It seems a bit too simple.”
- “I think Trainerize is better because there’s more options, but it’s not as easy to jump into. Whereas Everfit is a little bit too basic.”
The pattern holds across most coaches we hear from: Everfit’s simplicity is real, and it’s genuinely the right fit for a coach who wants to be up and running fast with a small roster. The tradeoff shows up later, when clients or coaches want more depth than a simple system was built to give.
