Group scheduling software

• keyboard_arrow_downHow is Anolla different from typical group booking software?
  Most group booking platforms only offer basic schedule management. Anolla is a comprehensive revenue-growing group booking and workflow platform for training studios, course providers, event service companies, team-building agencies and group accommodations. The platform unifies group class booking, participant management (CRM), group rules, automated notifications and payment collection in one system. Unlike static booking calendars, Anolla uses AI to optimize group occupancy, reduce cancellations and fill last-minute openings. Anolla supports dynamic pricing for group classes, package-based bookings and private events. The same platform lets you manage hourly group trainings, multi-day camps, group trips and recurring courses in parallel while providing a complete overview of all group-based bookings in a single central calendar view.
• keyboard_arrow_downDoes Anolla support hourly, daily, and multi-day group bookings at the same time?
  Yes, this is one of Anolla’s most important advantages in the group booking software market. Unlike many booking solutions for training studios, workshop organizers and event services, Anolla does not force you to commit to a single scheduling model. Under the same account you can simultaneously manage hourly group classes, day passes, multi-day camps, courses, retreats and private group events. The system also supports variable-duration sessions, such as team trainings, photo shoots, room rentals or joint events where duration depends on the booker. All group bookings are consolidated into a central group calendar view that allows you to plan trainers, instructors, rooms, equipment and group sizes at the same time. Thanks to this, Anolla is an excellent fit for hybrid business models where the same booking environment covers group classes, room rental, team events and longer group trips and programs.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does the Anolla AI Assistant reduce group booking administrative workload and human error?
  Anolla’s automated AI assistant is specifically designed to support group booking flows and works 24/7 with inquiries from group organizers and participants. The virtual assistant independently answers up to 79.3%¹ of recurring questions such as group class schedules, number of available spots, waiting lists, packages, payments, group policies and cancellation terms. The AI assistant also resolves up to 52.4%¹ of first-level technical support issues, for example problems accessing the participant portal, changing a group booking or dealing with invoices. All of this interaction takes place without direct involvement from administrators, studio reception or event coordinators. Automated group communication – confirmations, reminders, group announcements, waiting list notifications and follow-ups – reduces admin time by up to 39.3%¹. The result is less manual work, fewer double bookings, fewer mix-ups around group sizes and schedules, and a significantly lower number of human errors throughout the entire group booking lifecycle.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla’s dynamic pricing module help group service providers optimize their prices?
  Anolla’s dynamic pricing module automates the pricing strategy for group classes, courses, camps, retreats, team events and private functions. The group bookings manager can create detailed pricing rules based on time of day, day of week, season, group size, early registration, participant type or exclusive package offers. All price changes are applied automatically in accordance with the defined business rules, without the administrator having to update each group event manually. The system helps sell last-minute group spots at lower prices in low-occupancy periods, trigger special offers for smaller groups and optimise revenue potential during popular times and peak season. Thanks to dynamic pricing, group service providers can increase occupancy, keep groups consistently full and simultaneously improve the profitability of all group activities without manually handling price calculations.
• keyboard_arrow_downIs Anolla suitable both for an individual group instructor and for a multi-location group-service network?
  Yes, Anolla’s group booking software is designed to scale from an independent group instructor to a large multi-location network of studios, clubs, training providers or event services. A solo instructor, personal trainer, yoga teacher or small training group can start with a powerful free plan that includes all basic tools for managing group classes, workshops and small courses. Larger organizations—multi-room gyms, franchise studios, training companies, event organizers and hospitality chains—can use centralized management where all locations, group programs and instructor schedules are handled from a single control panel. The platform lets you add unlimited studios, halls, camp and retreat venues, training rooms, instructors and administrators. Flexible role- and location-based access control (RBAC) allows you to give coordinators, trainers, front office and marketing teams exactly the permissions they need, while ensuring secure and transparent responsibility at every stage of the group booking process.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhich tools and platforms does Anolla's group booking software integrate with?
  Anolla is built on an API-first group booking architecture that enables the platform to be quickly connected to other key systems. For collecting payments for group classes, courses, event tickets and group packages, there is a direct integration with Stripe that supports recurring payments, deposits and prepayments. For marketing and sales analytics, Anolla supports integrations with Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel to track the performance of group campaigns, promo codes and registration flows. The platform allows you to export raw group booking data to BI/ML tools to analyse attendance rates, cancellation patterns, popular time slots and the behaviour of different customer groups. In addition, Anolla comes with a powerful public API and is ready to integrate with membership systems, e-learning platforms, loyalty programmes, access control solutions and other systems that support the group services ecosystem.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhat does Anolla include in the free package and what do the paid group service features add?
  Anolla’s free plan provides all the basic tools needed to smoothly launch group classes, workshops, courses, training groups and smaller events. It’s especially suitable for independent trainers, yoga teachers, organizers of therapeutic groups and small studios that want to open online group booking quickly without a large upfront investment. Paid plans add unlimited automation – more complex group flow rules, multi-level waiting lists, segmented group notifications, group-based discount codes, advanced reports and multi-layer role management. Paid features also unlock extended integrations with marketing tools, membership platforms and accounting software, as well as loyalty and repeat-booking modules such as credit-based systems, class passes and membership-based group packages.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla’s usage-based pricing reduce risks for group service businesses?
  Anolla’s usage-based pricing model is specifically designed to mitigate the business risks of group trainings, courses, events, and other group-based services. Group organizers do not have to pay high fixed monthly fees during periods when the group program is just starting, it’s the off-season, or there are fewer registrations. Costs scale proportionally with the actual group booking activity so you only pay for the volume you use. This model is ideal for seasonal businesses – summer camps, retreats, group trips, winter sports groups – and for business models where demand for group classes fluctuates, such as studios in small towns, project-based courses, and events. This allows group service providers to keep fixed costs low, test new group formats and time slots, and grow volume without the risk of overpaying for software.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow quickly can I start working with Anolla group booking software?
  Getting started with Anolla’s group booking platform usually takes just a few minutes. A step-by-step setup wizard and 24/7 context-aware AI assistant help you quickly configure group classes, courses, packages, pricing and your online booking page. Capterra rates the platform’s ease of use at 5/5¹, which means that most studios, course organizers and event service providers can get their core processes – creating groups, defining schedules, publishing the booking page and accepting payments – up and running in under 30 minutes¹. This makes it easy to quickly test new group formats, open registrations for campaigns and start filling groups without complex technical preparation.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhat makes Anolla's group booking platform a future-proof solution?
  Anolla’s group booking platform is future-proof thanks to its extensible modular architecture, built specifically for managing group classes, courses, camps, retreats, and events. The cloud infrastructure and AI-driven learning enable the platform to continuously adapt to changing group models, customer behavior, and market trends. Unlike rigid booking software, Anolla is built around a powerful API that allows you to add new modules step by step—memberships, group credits, automatic waitlists, dynamic pricing, and multilocation management. The extensible platform also supports an IoT ecosystem, including door access systems for group rooms, equipment rental (e.g. sports gear, technical equipment, workshop tools), and various sensors that collect usage data. This architecture allows you to continually integrate new technologies, ensuring that group service providers’ booking and management tools remain at the forefront of the market, even as digital solutions and customer expectations evolve.
