Clean migration, Mailchimp cancelled, and door access for unmanned hours.
More than bookings. Follow up leads, bring members back, answer customers on WhatsApp, and take repetitive admin off your plate.

Rezerv: Every Rezerv microsite shares one template.
Vibefam: No two Vibefam sites look alike.
Rezerv: Harder for new members to find.

Rezerv publishes its own comparison. Here's what holds up.
They say "The AI Business Dashboard costs extra"
Partly trueTrue, it's a paid add-on. It forecasts revenue and flags members likely to churn, not just charts of last month.
They say "The branded app is a website in an app shell"
FalseFalse. A fully built app with push notifications and your own logo.
They say "Door access is pricier and does less"
FalseFalse. Same hardware provider as Rezerv, so the same functionality.
They say "Members can only pay with credits"
FalseFalse. Cards, QR, PayNow, Touch N Go and more.
They say "No real website or custom domain"
FalseFalse. The AI Website Builder makes fully customisable sites on your own domain.
They say "Email marketing relies on a third-party tool"
FalseFalse. Built in-house, unlimited on Professional. SMS and WhatsApp are native, with no separate provider to pay, unlike Rezerv.
They say "No court booking"
TrueTrue. Vibefam is built for studios, not courts.
Quiet factual comparison across the capabilities boutique studios actually use day-to-day.
The short answer
Rezerv
Bookings and day-to-day ops for single-outlet facilities. Studios, courts, clinics, salons.
Vibefam
Purpose-built for boutique fitness. Comprehensive software across operations and marketing, from $89/mo for two outlets.
Growing past one outlet? Vibefam costs less in total and leaves room to grow.
