BoomCloud™ vs Mindbody, side by side
| Mindbody | BoomCloud™ | |
|---|---|---|
| Who owns the member relationship | Varies by platform — some route members through a branded network | Your practice. Your brand, your plan, your patient list, exportable any time. |
| Recurring billing & renewals | Included | Included — monthly or annual, auto-renew, dunning, and receipts handled for you |
| Membership depth | Contracts inside a booking suite | Plan builder, enrollment, retention and MRR reporting |
| Pricing model | Check their current pricing page | Flat software fee plus a per-member fee designed to be built into membership dues to support security, service, capacity, and member features as they scale — see /pricing |
| Booking, classes & gift cards | Available today as part of their platform | Membership, enrollment and recurring revenue are the core today — scheduling, classes, staff and gift cards are in development as paid add-ons, so you can consolidate onto one platform |
| Who is accountable for enrollment | You are — the software bills whoever signs up | A Success rep owns your member target, with enrollment campaigns and the Patient Marketplace included |
| What happens as you grow | Check how their fee behaves at 300 members before you sign | The per-member portion is built into membership dues, so the program funds its own capacity as it scales |

Coming soon — optional add-ons
One platform for salons, barbershops and spas: memberships now, operations next.
You do not have to run your membership program in one system and the rest of your business in another forever. These four modules are being built on top of the same member record, so a member's plan, pricing and history follow them into every booking.
Calendar & appointments
Chair-by-chair scheduling with member priority booking, deposits, and no-show and cancellation rules.
Classes & group scheduling
Group and recurring service blocks — memberships that include a standing monthly visit, booked automatically.
Staff & services
Stylist and provider profiles, service menus, durations and availability, with member pricing applied at booking.
Gift cards
Sell and redeem gift cards online, and convert gift card recipients into recurring members instead of one-time guests.
These modules are in development and will be optional paid add-ons on top of the membership platform — pricing on request. Your membership plan, enrollment, recurring billing and reporting are live today.
Switching from Mindbody
Keep your booking platform for now and move memberships and auto-pay to BoomCloud. Scheduling, classes, staff and gift cards are in development as optional paid BoomCloud add-ons, so you can consolidate onto one platform when you are ready.
Built for your vertical
Add-on ladders and per-staff pricing scale with headcount, not success
Suites price by location, by staff seat or by tier, then add marketing, apps and automation as paid rungs — and the bill rises whether or not membership revenue does. BoomCloud is $197/mo + $4.50 per active member (Basic) or $397 + $3.50 (Pro), published, with the per-member portion designed to be built into membership dues so the plan funds its own capacity and support. Keep the suite. Add the engine.
One question to ask Mindbody
“What happens to that bill when you double your members — and who helped you double them?”
Questions
- Can I run BoomCloud with Mindbody?
- Yes — most spas keep booking in place today and run the membership program in BoomCloud. Scheduling, classes, staff and gift cards are in development as optional paid BoomCloud add-ons, so you can consolidate onto one platform when you are ready.
