Do NOT waste your time, energy, or money on Arketa" — 1.0/5 > **Maria** | *February 24, 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The look of the system. They made lots of promises about features, and those promises were good so I bought the software. > > **Cons**: Pretty much everything. The glitches are unbelievable. The customer support loves to gaslight you. Many of the e features are ghost features. They don’t give you access to your backend payment processing… this should have been the only red flag I needed, but alas. Payment plans and recurring billing doesn’t cancel and then people are charged and you need to refund, but you lose all of the processing fees. I know all companies have Their weakness, but theirs are business ending. We have lots more than 2 handfuls of members due to the billing issues. Oh, they also sold me a point of sale that doesn’t work for Canadian debits… I asked if it would work in Canada before ordering it. They lied. They can’t fix it. They haven’t refunded me for the terminal which I bought in Feb 2025. > > RUN\!\! Do NOT let them trick you like they did me. I gave them way too Many chances and am now out THOUSANDS. They over promise (straight up lie) and way under deliver. They pretend that they are going to solve your problem, and leave it on the shelf. I was told there would be a specific feature by the time my account was set up, I told them I can’t switch to their software without that feature… that was 18 MONTHS AGO. Like, what? You can’t make this stuff up. Everytime I reached out about it I was told “2 more weeks”. Aahh\! Lol just wild, seriously. RUN\!\!\!\!\! ----- ### "My Amazing Experience with Arketa" — 5.0/5 > **Sydney** | *August 6, 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love Arketa for its continuous innovation, with a steady stream of new features that help keep my business relevant. Their support team is incredibly kind and responsive, always ready to help with any issues. Additionally, Arketa offers impressive growth capabilities, allowing me to use the software to scale based on the needs of my business. > > **Cons**: I have no cons really, so I guess what I like least about Arketa is that while its frequent feature updates are generally beneficial, they can sometimes require a bit of adjustment and learning to fully integrate them into my workflow. However, this is a minor inconvenience compared to the overall value and innovation the software provides. As someone who is not tech savvy, they have so many FAQs and articles that assist me in understanding new features. > > My overall experience with Arketa has been exceptional. The software continually impresses with its frequent release of new features, keeping it at the forefront of technology. Whenever I have feature requests, the team is always so encouraging making me feel as though my business is important to them and that I am heard. I also appreciate the kind and responsive support team, who are always quick to assist with any issues. They are all so friendly\! ----- ### "Be cautious" — 1.0/5 > **Courtney** | *May 8, 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: \[sensitive content hidden\] was a great person to work with. Although on-boarding was a lot more than what I expected, he was a great support. > > **Cons**: The Customer Service was horrible. I have been ghosted for 2 months on getting overcharged. > > I would strongly advise you to be extremely cautious when proceeding with Arketa. From the beginning, I was sold a story by \[sensitive content hidden\] that had inaccurate and misleading promises about the level of support, initial start up, and customer service. The narrative was that Arketa was a smaller business and valued each customer. I was promised that I would have help bringing all my pertinent information over from my original operating system, Wellness Living, quickly and easily. In reality, this was always meant to be done by me or, I could choose to pay more on top of an already hefty monthly payment for my small business. At this time, I was tied into a 6 month contract in which, I paid in full because I could get a better rate. But, between selling my business, a move of our family of 6, some health setbacks and a change of direction, I had to cancel my contract. I requested some of the 6 month PIF payment back (I used less than 2 months of service), but I was told no. I accepted that. But then, I get an email after confirming the cancellation of my contract with Arketa, saying that I would be charged over $3000 for the next 6 months. I emailed right away and asked for this to be taken care of so that I wasn’t charged. Well, sure enough, I was charged over $3k and got declined when trying to use my credit card to purchase groceries. I was also charged an over draft fee because of this unexpected charge of over 3K which I am normally very careful to avoid. FINALLY, after over a month of emailing \[sensitive content hidden\], I was refunded but, not for the correct amount. Due to the exchange rate differential, I was refunded $217 less than what I was charged plus I had that overdraft fee on top of that. Now, I have been ghosted by \[sensitive content hidden\] and no one has acknowledged that I am still missing money. I understand that there was an exchange rate difference but, I do not feel like I should get punished for that since I sent two email reminders to please check that this would not happen. Because we have four kids and are just trying our best, this money goes along way with all the expenses that we are all facing. I am very disappointed that after 14 emails sent with kindness and patience, that I could not get a response on what was happening. Finally, after sharing this review, I received a response from Arketa Renewals with another promise of helping me out. I had hope that I was going to receive some customer service and get back the money I was owed. Nope. 3 additional emails were sent from me to Arketa- kindly requesting an update. It has been almost a month and I have once again been ghosted with absolutely no response at all. If you are thinking about using Arketa, ask lots of questions and know that, at end of the day, you are being sold to. My experience with Wellness Living customer service was much better and much more responsive. I know what it’s like to try to survive and thrive in this industry and, we all want to feel like our hard earned money is put to good use, serving us to increase our business. This experience, unfortunately, sent me in the opposite direction. Watch out for this company and the stories they sell. ----- ### "FINALLY found my perfect fit for studio software\!" — 5.0/5 > **Kathy** | *December 19, 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Software looks great and it's easy to customize to your brand. I have EVERYTHING that I need is one spot, instead of paying 3 different providers (software/email/app/etc) which gets overwhelming and expensive. I've had to contact customer service a few times since I'm new(ish) to Arketa, and they've quickly resolved any questions that I've encountered. I LOVE my branded app and so do my members\! > > **Cons**: I haven't had any problems with my software or app. > > I've been around the fitness block a few times. I've been teaching group ex classes since they were called "aerobics", and I've had my own fitness business for 19 years. I was with MindBody for 10 years and then Mariana Tek for the past 3 years. While both are well established companies, Arketa has so much more to offer\! To start, the onboarding process was top notch. \[sensitive content hidden\] was my specialist and he was amazing\! We went through everything in weekly zoom meetings, so that when it was time for my software to go "live" I was more than ready. I feel that I finally found a software that has everything my brick \& mortar studio + my online business need. ----- ### "Arketa is the best CRM for a yoga studio" — 5.0/5 > **Ashlee** | *September 24, 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The customer service is EXCELLENT\! We've been with mindbody and momence before and their customer service wasn't nearly as helpful. Arketa agents are quick to reply and always follow up, making client management a breeze. > > **Cons**: The only thing that were having issues with is for some reason our time zone is wonky because we are in Arizona. We've chatted in a few times that they've been wrong and they'll fix it but it will randomly revert back and then we need to chat in again. > > Overall, we love it\! The transfer was a breeze, the user interface is super easy to understand, and our team has been able to pick up on the system quickly. Oh, and we LOVE that there is a huge red alert if clients are missing a signed liability waiver. Overall, we would recommend this software to anyone looking for a cost effective CRM that gives you tools to automate your business. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/212718/sutra-fitness?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/212718/sutra-fitness) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
