Choose ALTERO if…
- you’re a French-speaking coach who coaches athletes remotely;
- you want nutrition included, down to the gram, with French foods (Ciqual table);
- you prepare athletes for competition and want a day-by-day peak week;
- you want your logo and colour in the app from €79 a month, with no commitment;
- your programmes and meal plans are in Excel or PDF and you don’t want to retype everything.
Another tool will suit you better if…
- your clients speak English: Trainerize, Everfit and TrueCoach are designed for them;
- you work within an organisation, with teams, fitness testing or therapeutic follow-up: Hexfit covers these uses;
- you want an app published under your name on the App Store and Google Play: AZEOO offers this with its Customized plan.
What ALTERO doesn’t do
- No app published under the coach’s name on the stores: their brand (logo, colour, name) appears in their athletes’ ALTERO app.
- Apps available on the App Store (iPhone) and Google Play (Android); on a computer, everything works in the browser.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best software for personal trainers?
It depends on your business. For a French-speaking coach who coaches athletes remotely, ALTERO brings programmes, nutrition, check-ins and peak week together in every plan, from €0. For an English-speaking client base, Trainerize or Everfit; for an organisation with teams and physical testing, Hexfit.
Is there free coaching software?
Yes. ALTERO is free for up to 2 athletes, with no time limit. Everfit is free for up to 5 clients and Trainerize for 1 client, in English. Hexfit, TrueCoach, AZEOO and Traener offer a free trial.
Which personal trainer app is in French?
ALTERO, Hexfit, AZEOO and Traener have a French-language website. ALTERO is designed in France, also available in English, with foods from the ANSES Ciqual table and data hosted in France.
How much does software for fitness coaches cost?
Usually between €20 and €60 a month for an independent coach, more with add-ons. ALTERO costs €29 a month for up to 10 athletes and €79 a month for unlimited, all included, with a 14-day trial.
What’s the best Trainerize alternative in French?
ALTERO is a French alternative to Trainerize: programmes, meal plans with macros, check-ins and messaging, in French, with nutrition included in every plan rather than sold as a paid add-on.
