Ecommerce Software to Increase Revenue
Fitness professionals cannot use RhinoFit's limited ecommerce features to sell training packages or workout challenges. Exercise.com, however, has full ecommerce capabilities allowing trainers to sell single workout plans, offer automated workout memberships, run workout challenges, and deliver individual training.

Stand Out With Your Own Custom-branded Apps
RhinoFit's apps provide no options for custom websites or to design custom exercises. Exercise.com, however, offers apps that are fully customized to make your life easier by providing your clients with a unified scheduling and workout experience with your brand displayed front-and-center.

What is RhinoFit?
RhinoFit is a gym management software focused on managing different aspects for a business such as digital waivers, appointments, and product management.
RhinoFit was created in 2012 as a Crossfit gym management software but has grown to manage gyms, dojos, clubs, and fitness studios. While catering to a variety of niches, RhinoFit is not without its faults. Some reviews highlight the lack of user-friendliness and the lack of customer support:
“The app is not user friendly. You have to sign in every time, the buttons are hard to push because they are so tiny. The email does not have spell check, there is a lot of room for error when sending out mass emails.”(RhinoFit Capterra Review)
“Tried calling multiple times for help and no answer also set an email but it’s been over a week with no response.”(RhinoFit Capterra Review)
The reviews above that say the app is not user-friendly and that their customer service is inadequate can be a bit concerning for a fitness business owner. Aside from a hard-working development team, Exercise.com has an advisory board comprised of some of the top fitness professionals to help ensure that necessary features are present in our system. This helps make certain that features are up to date and user-friendly. We also have excellent customer support service through phone, email, and chat to ensure your questions or concerns are met.
Overall, it seems that the majority of users that use RhinoFit’s system say that, for the most part, its software system performs to their basic needs. The problem, however, is that you need more than just a system to manage and grow your business. You need a fully customizable software to tend to YOUR specific business needs — something that Exercise.com provides while having the support system you can count on.

Unless otherwise stated, all images and reviews below are of/about the Exercise.com All-In-One Fitness Business Management software platform.
Fitness Business Management Software
RhinoFit’s software is able to manage basic key areas such as attendance, class schedule, and electronic payments. With Exercise.com, we have dedicated fitness business management (FBM) software that is built into the same platform that is used to build workouts. There is no need to learn different systems of software as everything you need is conveniently in one place.
Client/Class Scheduling
RhinoFit’s software is able to schedule individual or class appointments but is missing a key integrational feature — syncing with third-party calendars:
“I don’t like that there is no direct link to my phone from the RhinoFit Calendar to my google calendar. We live by our phones so this is a MUST HAVE feature.”(RhinoFit Capterra Review)
Our software at Exercise.com has the ability to integrate with not only Google calendar but Apple calendar as well. Our software also allows for public booking on your web, iPhone, and Android apps.
Gym/Facility Management
RhinoFit provides users with various gym/facility management features like staff and business reporting, member communication, and digital waivers. With RhinoFit, you are able to integrate your own custom product page, student sign-in, or membership store into your gym website. On top of including the gym/facility management integrations provided by RhinoFit, Exercise.com powers your business by connecting to Zapier, Stripe, YouTube, Vimeo, MailChimp, ConvertKit, ConstantContact, Refersion, Intercom, and more.
Business Dashboard Reports
Both Exercise.com and RhinoFit offer business dashboard reports. The reports for RhinoFit, however, are not customizable and on their website, they only highlight the ability to add a custom date range on a report.
Exercise.com business dashboard reports are easily customizable, giving you free-range to how you want to analyze your business or filter information. Whether you want to run custom reports on your revenue, staff, or clients, Exercise.com gives you many options to analyze how your business is doing.
Client Automation
RhinoFit and Exercise.com both have automation features that make it easy to interact with clients. While RhinoFit highlights its automation features in reminders and messages, Exercise.com has a wider range of capabilities in automation.
The automation features from Exercise.com keep clients engaged and motivated. A few of the Exercise.com platform’s automation offerings are:
- Automatic Emails and Texts/Other Automatic Features
- Highlight Exercise.com
- Automate Workout Delivery
- Automate Resource Delivery
- Automate Assessment Delivery
- Automate Reminders/Alerts via app, text, and email
Dedicated Zapier Support
The Exercise.com partnership with Zapier includes dedicated Zapier support. With over 2,000 apps to choose from, you can rest assured that your company’s website is as efficient and user-friendly as possible.
Dedicated Account Manager
With Exercise.com, every client works with a dedicated account manager to help address any and all software-related needs. Whether you want to tackle a website redesign or set up an e-commerce store, your account manager will help you every step of the way.
Customized Software
Rhinofit provides a mobile app that is compatible with iOS and Android. However, their mobile app is not fully customizable to your specific business, so that particular Rhinofit feature is lacking. The Exercise.com software, however, offers custom-branded fitness trainer apps.
Custom-Branded
As mentioned above, RhinoFit is missing the importance of featuring your brand and business on your apps and websites. Exercise.com offers you your own fully customizable app and website. You won’t be searching for a fitness software brand to find your app or website. It is your specific brand and business and it will be featured as such.
iOS & Android Apps
RhinoFit’s apps are not fully customizable like Exercise.com apps are. As for app automation, RhinoFit allows automation in different areas such as messaging and payments.
Exercise.com also allows you to automate a wide range of areas, including:
- Emails and Texts
- Workout Delivery
- Resource Delivery
- Assessment Delivery
- Reminders/Alerts via app, text, and email
Websites
RhinoFit’s lack of a fully customizable website and app can lessen the marketability of your brand. With Exercise.com, you are able to have responsive and fully custom-branded, SEO-optimized fitness websites with customizable features such as inputting a blog for posts, inputting sections for e-commerce, unlimited theme changes, and custom graphic work.
Security Features
Both RhinoFit and Exercise.com feature necessary security measures in SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and Payment card industry (PCI) compliance standards.
Marketing Integrations
Integration with other companies is important. RhinoFit prefers that you use Gulf Management Systems for processing, but allows other options such as Authorize.Net, Beanstrea, and more. Exercise.com prides itself with numerous integrations with not only companies like Stripe, Vimeo, and Youtube but also:
- MailChimp
- ConstantContact
- ConvertKit
- Zapier
- Google Analytics
- Facebook Pixel

Exercise.com is the best RhinoFit alternative.
Workout Software
RhnoFit’s website doesn’t mention specifically its software capability for workout creation. With Exercise.com, you have access to a simple workout software built for fitness professionals.
Workout Creator/Logger
RhinoFit offers tracking and logging for your member’s workout performance but does not feature a workout creator.
Exercise.com has a dedicated workout plan creator which allows you to customize your own exercise library with videos, tips, steps, and notes. You are able to create workouts once and schedule any workout to clients, groups, or classes automatically. You can even automate delivery for PDFs, nutrition plans, and more. Workout progress data is also stored automatically with activity, performance records, workout snapshots, summaries, and leaderboards.
This provides flexible solutions that allow the delivery of custom workouts for any scenario such as:
1-on-1 Training
Exercise.com workout software allows personal trainers to conduct one-on-one training sessions with clients that are looking for that personal touch.
Group Training
In addition to one-on-one training sessions, Exercise.com workout software also allows for group training sessions that clients can access online in addition to in-person.
Online Training
Our software also provides users with the ability to send workouts to anyone, at any time, anywhere. You can also sell online workout plans for added profit!
Exercise Library
RhinoFit does not provide users with an exercise library.
Exercise.com has an exercise library full of workout demos. Our software also gives trainers the option to upload their own custom exercises and videos to the library as well.
Custom Exercises
Sometimes, you come up with a new movement that you swear by. Add it to the exercise library! By filming yourself performing the movements you’ve prescribed to clients, you’re showing your clients that you’re professional yet understand the importance of that personal touch.
TV Workouts
Cast your Exercise.com demo videos onto gym television screens during group classes or one-on-one training sessions so clients can see what their form should look like.
Gym Ecommerce Software
RhinoFit’s software allows you to streamline your product online. Exercise.com’s gym ecommerce software allows you to sell pre-built single workout plans to your clients easily online as well. Selling online can be great for your business and having your products advertised specifically to your custom standards can set you apart. For example, Mike Boyle, of Mike Boyle Strength & Conditioning (MBSC), had over 700 clients within 12 months of releasing programming online using our software.
Payment Processing
RhinoFit allows for recurring or one-time payment options through credit card or ACH payments automatically. With Exercise.com, we created our dedicated Fitness Business Management Software (FBM) in which you can access all of your payment tools in the same custom-branded web and mobile app both easily and securely. Clients will be able to pay a one-time or recurring price with cash, check, or credit card. Our software also allows you to be able to accept direct deposits and allow online purchasing for packages.
Sell Products
RhinoFit and Exercise.com both provide users with the ability to sell products online or in-store. This allows you to build your business and utilize free advertising by selling shirts, hats, etc., with your brand’s logo.
Sell Workout Plans
With RhinoFit, you may be able to sell workout plans that you create outside of RhinoFit through the product store, but there is no specialized feature for selling workout plans on their software platform. With Exercise.com, you can fully create and sell pre-built workout plans to clients anywhere at any time.
Offer Online Workout Memberships
For those clients that want custom-built workout plans but can’t commit to heading to the gym at a specific time daily to train with a trainer, online workout memberships are perfect. Clients can purchase, for example, four weeks of custom-built workouts but have the ability to hit the workouts at a time and at a location that is convenient for them.
Sell Workout Challenges
Running workout challenges is a great way to build your gym’s community and are usually very popular in the winter months when gym members may need a bit more motivation.
Fitness Assessments
Assessments are important.
Clients need to see they are improving and will be happy to continue to use your services when they see results. According to RhinoFit’s website, its software allows for performance and commissionable sales tracking and benchmarks. They also have a rank and belt progression feature specifically for martial arts clients.
With Exercise.com fitness assessment software, you are able to create custom assessments for your clients or members. That assessment can provide history, measurement data, injuries, photos/videos, and goals. You can also use the assessment to trigger a workout specifically developed for that client’s success based on smart data from their onboarding.
Assessments
Exercise.com Performance Health Software allows you to deliver recurring assessments to re-engage clients while also providing progress photos and measurements. You can put together a custom way of re-engaging clients how you deem fit. Rhinofit’s software is able to set up automatic reservation reminders and custom messages; however, there is no automation feature pertaining to assessments.
Performance & Measurement Reports
RhinoFit offers streamlined reporting to organize information for your business and does allow for performance tracking and logging. However, their website does not indicate whether or not they deliver performance and measurement reports.
Exercise.com offers reports on various gym metrics in sales, business, appointments, class, and payroll all in one place. You can also sort reports by client, location, or service. And, of course, you can send and automate performance and measurement reports.
Nutrition
RhinoFit does not offer nutrition tracking.
Exercise.com, however, allows for nutrition tracking and allows trainers to send clients suggestions and notes based on their dietary logs.

The Bottom Line: Pros and Cons
You need to be sure to go with up-to-date software that won’t limit but enhance your business growth. Here are a few pros and cons to round out this review.
RhinoFit Cons
RhinoFit’s software is capable of managing your business in the basic sense but it is not designed for YOUR business. You do not have your own fully custom branded app or website and, in essence, it may feel like your business is being plastered on their software. You need to be able to utilize software that is designed to promote your brand and business the way you want it to. With RhinoFit, there can be a lack of customizability and marketability in an age where marketability can make or break your business.
