CoachingGenie: excellent support, robust product

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

The support is amazing: super responsive, always professional, always extremely helpful and work to solve whatever the problem is as quickly as possible. Lots of "preventive maintenance" training, too! Also, the team keeps adding features that I believe are really helpful to students, and also attractive when students consider my services.

Cons:

For my brain, it's a little difficult to keep track of my modules. I understand why it's set up the way it is and know that for some brains it's perfectly reasonable.

Coaching Genie Response

10 months ago

Thank you so much for sharing your review here Natalie! We're glad to see that you love the product and appreciate what you said about the customer support. Each module is just a piece of your training content. Let us know if we can offer more clarification around the modules structure.

Easy to use and amazing customer service!

5.0 2 months ago

Pros:

Coaching Genie was easy for me to set up and easy for my students and coaching clients to use. I especially love how easy it is to duplicate lessons/modules and use them in multiple courses. I was able to use my brand in every aspect of the platform. CG also includes a great-looking shopping cart that's easy to set up. And the customer service has been amazing!

Cons:

It's hard to come up with anything I don't like about Coaching Genie.

Coaching Genie is the one stop solution my coaching clients needed!

4.0 10 months ago

Comments: It is a great and easy-to-use software that my current clients love. I will recommend it to any coaching clients that I work with in the future.

Pros:

I like that you can create or add coaching modules and keep them all in one place. Plus the ability to mix and match programs based on my clilents' coaching needs. It enables you to put together several modules and publish each as needed.

Cons:

I had a little trouble setting up the link to Calendly. But using Calendly or another calendar option makes the whole scheduling issue more flexible.

Coaching Genie Response

10 months ago

Thank you so much for your review Kathy! Yes, the Calendly can be easily embedded or linked to from any of the modules or welcome pages. Since Coaching Genie is primarily designed as a group coaching solution, you can use the "Upcoming Events" scheduler to schedule your live calls. For private client sessions, use Calendly or another appointment booking software.

Comments: Coaching Genie is the most less-complex Coaching platform I've ever used. It's simplified, yet provides all the features a Coach needs.

Pros:

It's easy to set-up, which is good for the non-tech savvy users

Cons:

Probably the course structuring like being able to add lessons under each module. But it has a work around so it hasn't been a problem.

Simple and Robust At the Same Time!

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

The best part of Coaching Genie is how easy it is to set up, and more importantly - how easy it is for clients to use which saves a lot of time on technical issues and customer support. I like that I can get as granular as I want when creating content and materials, and then bring them together into robust programs.

Cons:

I haven't found any significant cons, and when I have trouble, customer support is there to help.

Coaching Genie Response

10 months ago

Thank you Holly for your review, we really appreciate it! And thank you for highlighting the fact that it was created by someone in the industry. That's how we're able to design the best possible solution for coaches who work with both, 1-on-1 and group coaching clients, as well as coaches who create training materials.

A must-have for any coach who runs group programs and even 1-on-1

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: It has been excellent! If we're stuck on something, there are helpful tutorials and their support team is always an email away. The interface is really simple and clean, and it has everything we need to make sure we're taking care of our coaching clients.

Pros:

There are so many features that I like about Coaching Genie, but it's the simplicity that is the most important for me. Not everyone is tech-savvy and I can just imagine how stressful it would be for a lot of coaches to piece things together. I love how simple it is that I can set up a group in about 10 minutes.

Cons:

As of now, it would be the inability to change the frequency of the check-ins since some of our programs don't need weekly check-ins.

Coaching Genie Response

10 months ago

Thank you so much for posting such a positive review Karen. Yes, we're working on offering bi-weekly and monthly check-ins. You can do daily check-ins by simply setting up each question as "Day 1", "Day 2", etc. inside the weekly check-in form.

Coaching Genie Magic

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: I would not have been able to build my business without Coaching Genie where I can repurpose material and easily share it with different groups. It keeps training material and related content together.
It is ideal for posting replays of any session and for sharing course material in a structured format.
It is a very effective collaboration tool for the Masterminds I facilitate and the response and technical support has been amazing! (Limited to business hours in EST)

Pros:

The accountability feature where group members can check in on a weekly basis and the coach can monitor participation and progress. The journal feature allows for "Free form" communication (although it can be structured too) and uploading of files. The facility for group members (and coaches/facilitators) to comment on other group members' progress, questions, etc. It is possible to share information with the group (e.g. modules, training courses, replays, etc.) but also to customize this for individuals with specific modules. I have also been able to share recordings of individual discussions with the individuals only through the modules feature.

Cons:

I would have preferred a daily check-in option; the system allows for weekly check-in. I would like to be able to comment on the "check-in" page for group members, even if there is no check-in, as a form of individual motivation and keeping members accountable. (The system provides has a "check-in reminder email" feature available.)

Coaching Genie Response

10 months ago

Thank you so much Karien for your great review! You can do daily check-ins by simply setting up each question as "Day 1", "Day 2", etc. inside the weekly check-in form. We're also releasing a new feature soon, "Onboarding Sequences", which will allow you to pre-schedule emails to your group members so you can send encouragement, reminders, and motivational messages throughout the program.

Everything in one place - for groups and 1:1 clients

5.0 9 months ago

Comments: I love the intuitive and easy use of the system. Quick to learn and lots of support posts and videos when I couldn't figure it our right away. Love the support calls that are offered. So great to re-use and repurpose previously created courses easily. You can tell that the system has been created by a coach. It addresses shortcomings that other systems have and it's all in one place. I like having as few platforms as possible and as much in one place as possible. CoachingGenie is a great example of that.

Pros:

I currently use it mostly for my 1:1 clients to have a place for all their call recordings. I love that it's all in one place. It's quick to create a new call recording and send it out. I can also upload additional worksheets there. For group coaching, I love the tracking and accountability features as well as being able to comment on their "homework" answers. They can comment on each others journal entries as well but also have the ability to turn that feature off and leave it private. Lots of ways to customize client's and group's experiences and features.

Cons:

I wouldn't use it if group member interaction was the most important in a group course. I'd probably use a social media platform for that part.

Coaching Genie Response

9 months ago

Thank you for a great review Christine, we really appreciate your feedback! As far as member interaction, there's a discussion forum for general interaction. But most of the curriculum-related interaction, support, and feedback happens in the weekly check-ins. For more social connections - a Facebook group might be more appropriate. Thank you so much again!

Out of the technology mud into the dazzle of Coach Genie

5.0 9 months ago

Comments: Until Covid I was very busy teaching self development in live groups. With shutdowns I realized that I needed to pivot. I began focusing on one on one coaching, and then group coaching.
Thing is, as intuitive and creative as I am in coaching, that's how non technical I am when it comes to setting up and running the framework of group coaching.
The participants in my first group coaching program loved the content. I had set up individual Googledocs for us to share feedback, a separate forum for everyone to share, and the videos of the sessions were saved on my site. Their personal zoom calls with me were accessible via a zoom link, and I had all the links on an email... Yup it was exhausting just trying to explain how to use it all... Enter [sensitive content hidden] and her dazzling coach genie. With coach genie everything was easily accessible for even the first time users. My participants so enjoyed how smooth the tech was in the following cohorts that it was rarely even mentioned. That's how low key, highly elegant and efficient coach genie is. It allows me to put all my energy into my clients, knowing the technology is in the responsible and capable hands of [sensitive content hidden] and her team. [sensitive content hidden] didn't just sell me a coaching hosting program, she kinda adopted me and supported me in using it. Her support is generous, deeply respectful and trustworthy. And her influence filters all the way through her programs, tools and services. Technology is a fairly challenging part of my business, but one of the best parts, on which I can rely fully, is coach genie.
THANK YOU [sensitive content hidden]!!

A review of Coaching Genie

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: When I was planning to start my coaching program, I needed software that fit my specific needs. After looking into other options, I chose Coaching Genie and I'm really happy with my decision. Overall, Coaching Genie has met all my needs in one user-friendly platform.

Pros:

What I especially like about Coaching Genie is how it focuses on personal interaction. It has a great feature that lets my clients check in weekly, which keeps our communication strong and supportive. The platform also has a journal feature for clients to record their progress and thoughts, which really helps in keeping them engaged. I'm thrilled with Coaching Genie's excellent support when I’ve had a question or concern, which has significantly contributed to my positive experience. What made Coaching Genie stand out to me was its balance of being affordable while still offering great features. It was crucial for me to have an easy-to-use platform that could handle all aspects of my coaching program in one place.

Cons:

I really don't have anything I didn't like about Coaching Genie.

Best tool to organize your content and coach your clients with personalized solutions

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

I love Coaching Genie. I have been a user since it came out and it just keeps improving over time. When I have a client who needs support on a specific topic, I love to create a module for my client and then make it available to other clients on an individual basis as needed. Also, I love how simple it is to use and how adaptable it is. I use it mostly for individual clients and I find it is the best way to keep my materials and their homework organized. I recommend it without hesitation (and do so to others on a regular basis)!

Cons:

The interface is very simple - some platforms that are aimed at online teaching with coaching as a side feature may be a bit more visually attractive. Still, I have used both types of platforms and for coaching purposes, Coaching Genie's functionalities outperform pretty design.

Coaching Genie Response

Coaching Just Got Genie-us!

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: Coaching Genie has brought a magical ease to managing my coaching business. The user-friendly interface makes it simple to get started, and the all-in-one functionality is a game-changer. While there's a lot to learn at first, the platform's robust features and flexibility make it a fantastic choice for any coach looking to streamline their operations.

Pros:

The platform’s lightweight interface is a breeze to navigate, making it ideal for all tech skill levels. It integrates content delivery, client communication, scheduling, and tasks/check-ins, all neatly organized within a handy client portal.

Cons:

It would be fantastic to see a built-in live chat in Coaching Genie. A nice addition that could make communication even more convenient in the future!

Cons:

For our purposes, I haven't found any cons. We don't use all of the features, but what we need is all there.

You can't grow or scale without Coaching Genie!

5.0 9 months ago

Comments: Coaching Genie [sensitive content hidden] and her support team take great care of her clients. Contact them if/when you have a question/problem, and they help you promptly.

Pros:

The only way that a good coach or advisor can properly scale, grow, and manage their time/energy/life is to use Coaching Genie. If you've got 5+ clients and you're not using Coaching Genie, you're asking for trouble and burnout soon.

Cons:

Coaching Genie is great. It does the job you need to get done. But it looks and feels a bit dated. It could use a facelift in 2024.

Excellent Coaching and Training Delivery Platform!

5.0 9 months ago

Pros:

The ease of use and custom delivery of Coaching Genie are my two favorite features of Coaching Genie. You, or your team, can have your coaching and training materials added to Coaching Genie in minutes and ready to deliver to your clients with ease with no outside experience needed. I also love that you can custom deliver a course to an individual client. If you have one client who is working through a program quickly and wants the next modules, you can easily give them access. In other programs you can't do this but with Coaching Genie it is as simple as a click of a button! I am also very impressed by the customer support and development team. You get a response back from them quickly and they are always rolling out new features based on customer feedback. Plus they have an extensive knowledge base to support you as well.

Cons:

I have been working with it for a couple years now and I haven't found anything yet!

Simplicity is the best feature!

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: When I first saw Coaching Genie, I literally sighed with relief. The design is very simple, clean, and made me feel like I can do it. And while it's very simple, it has some amazing little features that make my training programs more valuable to clients. I keep discovering new ones all the time. The form builder allows you to create your own self-assessments and quizzes, and their new progress trackers help me assign homework and watch my clients' progress.

Pros:

There are many training platforms out there, but they have thousands of features most of which I'll never use. Coaching Genie feels just right, very easy to get started, clear structure for me to lay out my training materials and share them with clients. It's also easy for my clients to use - they don't have time to figure out new tech, so I was happy to see that everything is pretty much self-explanatory. One of my favorite features is the Activity page. I can see exactly what my clients are working on, what they need help with, and who is not participating/engaging. This really helps me support my clients as needed, and always be "in the know" - even between the coaching calls.

Cons:

At the moment, they don't integrate with PayPal, and that's how I take payments. I made a request, so hopefully that'll be added in the future.

Haven't found a similar product to solve my coaching delivery problems

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: I've found that Coaching Genie has really simplified my coaching delivery process. And I even get to tell my clients that they have lifetime access to their materials -- even after I decide to archive a program.

Pros:

I love how easily I can go from 1:1 to group coaching. That way I'm prepared to make the shift when I'm ready. Plus, I'll get to stay on a platform that I already know and love. (No vertical learning curve.)

Cons:

Coaching Genie doesn't have a webpage builder or CRM and it does not integrate with Zapier. It's not necessarily a huge issue for me because I have my own systems that I like. That said, I wanted to mention it.

Great for group coaching

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

I like to work very closely with my clients, and like to connect with them between the coaching calls. Coaching Genie lets me see what my clients are working on and what they need help with. I can even read their client journals, and can give them feedback right in their journals which adds even more value and connection.

Cons:

There are limits on how many clients you can have at a time, without having to uplevel to a higher price point. However, it's great that you can archive past clients which opens things up to bring on new clients without having to go up a level.

Coaching Genie Response

Thank you so much for your review Cindy! Yes, the client capacity is technically unlimited, because when you archive your clients, they can still get access to all of the materials they purchased from you, as well as their journals, replays, and accountability partners.
