Frequently Asked Questions

COMMON QUESTIONS


Is TrueCoach worth the price?
TrueCoach is a well-built platform with an excellent workout delivery experience. However, its per-client pricing model means costs grow significantly as you take on more clients. At 20+ clients, PT Pro's $29/mo flat rate is substantially cheaper.
What is the best TrueCoach alternative?
For solo trainers looking for a TrueCoach alternative with flat pricing, PT Pro is the strongest option — unlimited clients, AUD-native pricing, built-in booking, revenue tracking, and card-on-file no-show fees. Other alternatives include My PT Hub, Everfit, and ABC Trainerize.
Does PT Pro have a workout builder like TrueCoach?
Yes — PT Pro includes a workout builder for creating and assigning workout plans to clients. TrueCoach has a more advanced workout builder with a larger video library, so if workout delivery is your primary focus, TrueCoach has an edge there. PT Pro's advantage is the booking, scheduling, and business management side.
