Corenta vs Cliniko
Corenta or Cliniko? Choose by your clinic's daily work.
Cliniko describes itself as practice management for clinics and allied health practitioners, with treatment note templates and group appointments. Corenta brings packages, sessions and clinical tracking together for studios that run Pilates and physio side by side. Below we compare the two under the same headings.
Cliniko can make sense if you mostly do one-to-one treatment, want to build your own note templates and are fine with data stored in Australia, the UK, Canada or Ireland.[1][3]
Corenta can make sense if you sell clinical Pilates packages and want credits tied to bookings, measurements and home exercises on the same client record, and a 14-day trial without a card.

Reasons to choose Cliniko
Reasons to choose Corenta
- A session credit is used when the booking is made, not when the class ends. Remaining credits and every movement show on the client record.
- You set the cancellation window. Cancelling within it returns the credit; after it, whether the credit is used depends on your setting.
- Group classes track capacity and attendees separately; once full, no new bookings are taken.
- A client can freeze a package for the number of days they choose, and those days are added to the expiry date. An admin can extend an active package by 1 to 365 days.
- On the clinical side there are measurements (weight, height, VAS, pain location, sleep, body composition), home exercises, a free-text session note that cannot change once submitted, and a fixed intake form.
Who Corenta is not for
- You need structured SOAP notes, a form builder, an exercise video library or telehealth sessions. Notes are free text and the intake form is fixed.
- You want clients to pay online. In Corenta clients cannot pay in the app or through a link; you record payments by hand as cash, bank transfer or card terminal.
- You need e-invoicing or an accounting integration. Those are not available; you can export CSV from the web panel.
- You want automated SMS, WhatsApp messages or email campaigns. Reminders go out as app notifications; Corenta does not send SMS or WhatsApp messages.
- You need Google Calendar sync, Zoom, ClassPass-style connections or AI features. Those are not available today.
- You want instructors to work from a computer. The web panel is for owners and admins; instructors and clients use the mobile app.
- You expect phone or live chat support. Support is in writing.
Moving from Cliniko
- We do the move. We bring your client list and package balances into your account within 24 hours of receiving the file, at no charge.
- If you prefer to do it yourself, your Excel or CSV file brings in clients, package balances, upcoming appointments and past payments, up to 20,000 rows per file. Health information is never imported.
- The web panel exports clients, calendar and finance data as CSV.
We do not move appointment or payment history. Keep the export from your old system for your records.
