Comment on Small Commercial Gym Software
appel@whiskers.bim.boats 7 months agoI’ve used odoo before, it is a large piece of software and can be modified to do lots of things. Most likely you will be able to get it to do what you want. You’ll probably need the e-commerce module, there is probably some sort of mode for subscriptions. You can also add the CRM on top for marketing, etc. there is also the booking module (iirc) which is maybe useful for sessions with trainers etc. maintenance might also be useful.

I did see the subscriptions module. Once you add enough modules it becomes a paid service. I have yet to find info on if Odoo is subscription based or a one time payment. I don’t mind paying for a software but do not want a subscription service.

You can easily host the community edition in Docker or otherwise. Odoo has a steep learning curve but it’s very versatile. It can definitely do what you describe.

That’s good to know. I’ll look into the Docker image. Thank you

No worries. It has a stripe integration, too, so it’s easy to handle payments without having to hold customers’ credit card info.

it is subscription, you pay per user per month. It is quite cheap imo, but I understand if you don’t want to pay any subscription. But in that case you can just try to self host it instead.

Okay I see. I’ll have to check how much it is. So this can be self hosted for free with the tradeoff of having to figure out how to do that? If that’s the case then I could even start off with the ease of the subscription and over time get my self hosting setup figured out.

Yes it can be selfhosted in theory, I haven’t personally tried it though. That sounds like a good plan.
