Comparison

Hone vs. Glofox

Glofox keeps your studio running — memberships, check-ins, and branded apps. Hone is built for what Glofox doesn't touch: planning better classes and knowing every client's body.

Clients exercising on reformer Pilates equipment
Hone

Hone is purpose-built for reformer Pilates, Lagree, and mat instructors. Every feature — curated exercise library, spring settings, contraindication tracking, drag-and-drop class plans — is designed around how Pilates is actually taught.

Glofox

Glofox (now ABC Glofox) is a boutique fitness studio management platform. It handles class scheduling, membership management, check-ins, and a white-label client app — but has no exercise programming or discipline-specific content.

The verdict

Glofox is built for studios with consumer-facing apps, membership billing, and high booking volume. Hone covers that plus the teaching layer — class planning, client knowledge, session history, and studio scheduling. Where Hone has a Pilates exercise library and client health profiles, Glofox never will.
