Ever experience the frustration of a computer restart unexpectedly shutting down your fitness center’s member management system? We feel your pain. In response, we recently revamped our gym access application, called Insight Access, to better counter disruptions caused by outside updates. 

Introducing Gym Insight’s newly redesigned Insight Access application 

To solve this conflict, our software team redesigned the Insight Access application to run in the computer’s background, thereby making it immune to outside shake-ups. 

Now gym members may check into your club’s front desk or use their door access digital keytag, regardless of your computer system’s status – whether it is undergoing a restart or experiencing an unexpected internet power outage. 

What is Insight Access?

Insight Access is our reliable 24/7 door access and front desk check-in system supported by either mobile digital keytags or affordable barcode door access. Member photo verification, alerts for payment collection and automated denial for expired memberships assure gym owners that only up-to-date members are entering their fitness centers.

Who’s the antagonist in this saga?

Well, frankly, software updates by Microsoft are a particular challenge. When Microsoft, or another platform provider, sends out an update, it delays access to the gym by forcing a restart, halting communication to a gym’s door access system or to the desk check-in service.

Large updates, as well, often push through, regardless of schedule requests by computer owners — causing unforeseen delays and challenges. 

Then there is Mother Nature, who frequently plays havoc on computer systems and pulls the plug on internet service.

What are the advantages to the newly redesigned Insight Access?

  • Door and member management access never interrupted. 
  • Continuous retrieval of data through short internet outages and unexpected system interruptions. 
  • Runs in the background, allowing multitasking.
  • Icon sits in tray or as a sidebar for ease of use.

Gym Insight’s custom software design ensures reliability.

Our software is written in-house to provide gym owners with an easy-to-use, seamless gym management product that does not rely on third-party applications. This fully integrated software gives us complete control over the user experience, allowing us to fix bugs, rewrite code, and constantly improve our product.

As a result of our hand-coded software, every application, from our Sales Guru tablet-based system, to Insight Access and the Members App, is designed to share data instantaneously. No lost forms, misplaced phone numbers or stifled communication — just smooth-flowing access to your gym, every day, for every member. 

So say goodbye to outside applications attempting to muscle through operation-freezing updates — and discover how easy it is to run your gym on our Insight software.
