What do you like best about PT Distinction?

I have tried other similar programs and software, and none had everything I needed. PT Distinction was an easy choice as it had every personal training category covered just the way I wanted it. It is simple to use, and I really like how fast I can create new accounts, customize forms, and create programs and workouts. The perfect integration of all the tools significantly simplifies my job. What I like even more is the ability to effectively create and edit the programs on the go in the app. The app is also very stable without any glitches. My clients also enjoy it for its solid performance and ease of use when they are doing their workouts. The customer support has been awesome so far. Every time I have a question, I get a response from a real person in less than 24 hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

PTD is super great with it's support to paid users as well as the free group. The regularly roll out updates and the app itself rarely has any downtime. The custom app features are really nice and easy to implement and really give a clean professional feel.

Their most recent update to leave a comment on any of their activity is fantastic (which is also sentn to their messenger inbox with a link back) . Also being able to send videos, voice recordings and also have clients send form videos linked to specific exercises is great.

I don;t use all the features, but you can see very quickly especially working through the modules that PTD has some incredible capabailities for those who want to scale to very large numbers and it handles it just as easily compared to just 2-3 clients.

Being able to message clients through the app has been a gamechanger as I don't need to rely on whatsapp or email anymore. The in app messenging is very fluid and fast to use. I can do almost everything from the mobile app too which is great as a trainer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

It's somewhat a steep learning curve but once that's done you do get to see the potential of this awesome product.

Usability for the client can sometimes be an issue as tracking data or intitially learning the app can be challenging for old clients. saying that, a quick loom video sorts this out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PT Distinction solving and how is that benefiting you?

messaging app is very good and saves me having to pay for a seprate sim contrcat or phone or have my client messages mixed up with my facebook messages. Keeping so much in one app is extremly handy and simplifies the billing side but also from a productivity perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

The provision to create your bespoke training programmes. Setting up a client is quick and easy. Adding bespoke information and documents, e.g., a client's test results, is a great facility. Integration with a website is excellent, tailored and seamless. Every question I have asked through customer service has been responded to promptly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

The mobile app is a little slow and clunky. Managing clients is much easier on a Laptop/PC or tablet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Super quick and easy to navigate around the app and admin website. Time efficient when setting up and scheduling programs for clients. Very adaptable and easy to adjust features to fit your coaching style as a PT. Easy for clients to log their workouts and give feedback as a trainer. Great customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

Nothing much, but if anything - would be great if the clients were able to add sessions from their program to the calender theirselves. Though easily solvable by clients just logging from the program site directly. Won´t be visible in the calendar, but still visible in the result graph. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Time efficiency! Saving so much time each day. Very structured - easy to keep up with clients workouts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

Honestly don't have much to say here. Potentially the steep learning curve, I initially had written it off because of my own lack of understanding in the software. With some patience and time though well worth the wait. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

I love that PT Distinction have inbuilt videos to explain how to do exercises - my clients note that this make it much easier for them as well! The library of workouts to choose from is very extensive, and PTD are always adding more! It makes my job much easier. I even have the choice to upload my own videos if I wanted to, to personalise the app! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

The only 2 things I can think of is that my clients say it's confusing when they're tracking their workouts and their progress- they're unsure if what they have tracked has saved or not. And that it's clunky to be able to reschedule/modify existing workouts (though this could also be a lack of my understanding also! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PT Distinction solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

The front end of the app works seemlesly. Clients find it very easy to use & they comment regularly on the apps ease of use.

All the features of the app are great. The tracking saltwater is accurate and concise and they regularly update the app, which is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

The Trainer App, is a little clunky on the mobile phone. So, you have to update client profiles on your laptop. Which does slow things down a little.

This is especially difficult, when you have back to back sessions & don't have time to get on the laptop. Meaning you need to do the updating at the end of the day.

This is my only gripe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PT Distinction solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

I am a personal trainer, but I focus a lot on habit coaching and nutrition as well. This app has been great. I held out from investing in an app - but when I found this one it was a no brainer to me. The functionality and the features make it so easy to house everything inside the app for my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

I haven't really noticed a downside. Right now I am unable to sync YouTube videos which is kind of a bummer - but it's not the end of the world. It would be really cool to be able to "go live" on the app and host masterclasses on here - but that would most likely be an enormous undertaking lol Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PT Distinction solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has everything in one place for me. I wanted habit tracking and notifications being sent to my clients. I am a super organized person so knowing that all my things are organized in this app - I literally love it. Keeps my anxiety down just knowing the workflows are set.

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

Through PTDistinction I found a company that set up my pipeline for all of my clients. This saved me months of tech work to create my system. PT Distinction has great resources for marketing, how to use the platform and much more. Able to take payments as well right within the platform. This is allowing me to work with my in-person and online clients with ease to deliver diet plans, custom workouts and any other info to help my clients. I have found it easier and a flatter learning curve relative to other sites. I am very pleased with my choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

With PT Distinction University to guide you, you can find the resources to upskill yourself and present a smoother experience for my clients. The only downside is with so much adaptability, there is a bit of a learning curve, but as I said above, plenty of resources to speed up this 'problem.' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PT Distinction solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can work with many more online clients, as well as with my in-person clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
