The TeamBuildr Alternative for studios that book classes
TeamBuildr is built for strength & conditioning programming. easybook.studio is built for everything that surrounds the workout — class bookings, memberships, class passes and Stripe payments — from €2.50/month (early adopter, regular €10), EU-hosted.
Note: TeamBuildr and easybook.studio are not direct substitutes. Most coaches who add easybook keep TeamBuildr for programming and use us for the studio side of the business.
Is easybook.studio a good TeamBuildr alternative?
Yes — easybook.studio is a TeamBuildr alternative for coaching businesses that also run real bookings, memberships and payments, which TeamBuildr's strength-programming tooling does not cover natively. Where TeamBuildr is priced per coach plus per athlete (around $150/month at ~100 athletes), easybook.studio is a flat rate from €2.50/month (early adopter, regularly €10) with 500 customers included on Basic and no per-athlete fee. It covers class booking, memberships, class passes and Stripe payments, and is GDPR-compliant and EU-hosted. It does not replace TeamBuildr's program builder or athlete tracking — many coaches run both side by side.

Who should switch from TeamBuildr — and who shouldn't?
We are not the best fit for every studio. Here is an honest take — so you don't talk yourself into a painful switch.
Switch if …
- You are a coaching business that has outgrown TeamBuildr because you also run in-person classes, memberships or class passes — TeamBuildr does not cover that natively.
- You want public booking links on your own domain so prospects can book trials and sessions, not just track athlete programs.
- You are in Europe and want EU hosting, EUR pricing and a German-language DPA instead of USD billing and US hosting.
- You want to charge memberships and class passes via Stripe (including SEPA Direct Debit), not just per-coach licensing tied to athlete count.
- You want a flat monthly fee that does not scale with how many athletes you onboard.
Stay on TeamBuildr if …
- Strength & conditioning programming, exercise libraries and athlete progress tracking are core to your offering — that is exactly what TeamBuildr is built for.
- Your customers are sports teams, schools or remote athletes who need a native iOS/Android app for daily program delivery, not a studio booking flow.
- You do not run in-person bookings, memberships or class passes and do not plan to — easybook.studio would only add overhead.

- 4Week 2–3
Go live & decide what to keep
Many coaches keep TeamBuildr for programming and run easybook.studio in parallel for in-person bookings, memberships and payments. Cancel TeamBuildr only if you are also leaving programming behind — they are not directly substitutable.
Common concerns about switching
The real reasons studios delay switching — and how easybook.studio answers each.
TeamBuildr is for programming — does easybook.studio replace that?
No. easybook.studio does not include a workout/program builder, exercise library or 1RM tracking. If those are core to your business, keep TeamBuildr for programming and add easybook.studio for the booking + membership + payment layer it does not cover. They solve different problems and often run side-by-side.
I run group classes alongside one-on-one coaching — can easybook handle both?
Yes. Group classes (capacity, waitlist, recurring schedule) and 1:1 sessions (private blocks on your calendar) are both first-class concepts. Memberships, class passes and per-session billing all work for both formats — including no-show fees and cancellation rules.
I am in Europe — how does TeamBuildr handle GDPR and EU hosting?
TeamBuildr is US-hosted with USD billing, which creates a third-country transfer context for EU coaching businesses. easybook.studio is hosted exclusively in the EU (Frankfurt) with the GDPR Art. 28 DPA part of every contract, no data transfer to third countries — a concrete compliance advantage if you serve EU members.
My TeamBuildr plan is annual — what about the existing contract?
TeamBuildr typically bills monthly or annually per coach + athlete count. easybook.studio does not require you to cancel TeamBuildr — most coaches who add us keep TeamBuildr for programming. If you decide to fully leave, time the cancellation to the next renewal date so there is no overlap waste.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is easybook.studio a replacement for TeamBuildr?
Only partially. easybook.studio replaces the booking, membership, payment and member-portal side of a coaching business. It does not replace TeamBuildr's strength & conditioning programming, exercise library or athlete progress tracking. Many coaches keep TeamBuildr for programming and add easybook.studio for everything that surrounds the actual workout.
Can I run easybook.studio alongside TeamBuildr?
Yes — that is the most common pattern for coaches who want both. easybook.studio handles your public schedule, bookings, memberships, class passes and payments, while TeamBuildr keeps doing the program writing and athlete tracking. They share members in the sense that you charge them in easybook and program for them in TeamBuildr.
How does easybook.studio pricing compare to TeamBuildr for a 100-athlete roster?
TeamBuildr scales with athlete count — at ~100 athletes you are typically in the ~$150/month range plus per-coach licensing. easybook.studio is a flat rate from €2.50/month (early adopter, regular €10) for the Basic plan including 500 customers, with no per-athlete fee. If your business runs on bookings and memberships rather than on athletes consuming programs, the flat-rate math heavily favors easybook.
What is the best TeamBuildr alternative for a hybrid coaching studio?
For coaches who do both in-person classes and remote programming, the most common stack is easybook.studio for the booking + membership + payment layer plus a dedicated programming tool (TeamBuildr, TrueCoach, TrainHeroic) for workout delivery. easybook.studio focuses on running the studio side of the business, which TeamBuildr does not cover well.
Does easybook.studio support memberships and class packages?
Yes. Memberships, class passes and drop-in tickets are first-class concepts, billed via Stripe with auto-renewal. Waitlists fill open spots in registration order. Per-class cancellation policies define how late participants can cancel for free, with a fee, or not at all — including automatic class-pass debit handling.
Where is my data hosted with easybook.studio?
Exclusively in the EU (Frankfurt). The GDPR Art. 28 DPA is part of every contract, with no data transfer to third countries. TeamBuildr is US-hosted with USD billing, which creates a third-country transfer context for EU coaching businesses — a concrete compliance reason European coaches add or switch to an EU-native platform.
Can I import my TeamBuildr athlete list into easybook.studio?
Yes. Export athletes from TeamBuildr as CSV (admin → export) and send them to us. We deduplicate by email, create customer records and map TeamBuildr groups to easybook memberships or class passes. Programs that need to keep running stay in TeamBuildr — they do not migrate. Contact us for an easy data migration.
How long does it take to add easybook.studio alongside TeamBuildr?
Most coaching businesses are live in 1–2 weeks: day 1 sign up and configure your schedule, days 2–7 import your athlete list and set up memberships and class passes, week 2 swap the booking link on your site and start charging through easybook. TeamBuildr keeps running in parallel — there is no hard cutover required.
