Practice.do shut down. Where coaches go next
Practice.do went offline on 3 November 2025 with about two weeks of notice and no read-only mode. If your booking, payments, and client portal lived there, you need a new home fast. Coachful covers everything Practice did and adds programs, habits, check-ins, and community.

All-in-one coaching platform
Practice was well liked: a clean interface, fast support, Smart Actions automation, and per-client chat earned it 4.8 on G2 and 4.6 on Capterra before the company wound down.
What its customers lost was an admin hub: booking links, Stripe payments, invoices, contracts, forms, and a client portal with chat. Coachful rebuilds all of that, including the Outlook sync Practice never shipped, and adds the delivery layer Practice did not have: multi-week programs, daily habits, check-ins, goals, courses, and community. And because the shutdown burned people, Coachful lets you pull a full client-data export (roster, notes, check-ins, goals, sessions, form responses) whenever you want it.
Three reasons coaches choose Coachful
Everything Practice did, rebuilt
Booking pages, Stripe payments, invoices, contracts with e-signature, intake forms, and a branded client portal with chat. Plus two-way Outlook and Microsoft 365 sync, which Practice users asked for and never got.
The coaching layer Practice never had
Practice sold packages. Coachful delivers the work between sessions: multi-week programs, daily habits, morning and evening check-ins, goals with progress bars, and group cohorts.
Your data leaves with you
Practice went dark with no read-only mode, and unexported notes were lost. Coachful gives you a full client-data ZIP, a course export, and an org backup on demand, and plans cancel in one click.

I tried running my coaching business across five different apps. It was a complete waste of time and money. Then I found Coachful. It was everything I need in one platform.

It’s the coaching platform I always wanted — it just didn’t exist yet. I have one dashboard for everything and already saved $1,300 by cancelling all the tech I had duct-taped together.

What coaches ask before switching from Practice.
Practice.do shut down on 3 November 2025 after a failed acquisition. CEO Julien Smith announced the wind-down in October 2025, the platform went fully offline with roughly two weeks of notice and no read-only mode, and accounts are now locked. The pricing and features pages return 404, and the product cannot be purchased.
Only if you exported before 3 November 2025. Practice allowed a CSV export from Settings, and CoachAccountable built an importer for the Practice ZIP. Session notes and portal content that were never exported are unrecoverable. If you have the CSV or ZIP, send it to us during onboarding and we import your client list into Coachful.
Booking links, Google Calendar sync, Stripe payments and invoicing, contracts with e-signature, intake forms, workflow automations, a client portal with per-client chat, SMS reminders, and Zoom links. Coachful covers each of those and adds two-way Apple/iCloud and Outlook sync, built-in video, a website builder, courses, and community.
Paperbell and CoachAccountable both published migration paths, and both are solid admin tools. Pick Coachful if you want the admin plus the coaching: programs, daily habits, check-ins, goals, group cohorts, and a branded client app on iOS and Android. It is $29/mo for up to 5 clients, $49/mo Solo for up to 20 clients, and $99/mo Pro for unlimited clients.
No vendor can promise forever, so we make leaving painless instead. You can download a full client-data ZIP (roster, notes, check-ins, goals, habits, sessions, form responses), a course export, and an org backup JSON at any time. Plans are monthly, cancel in one click, and your data stays until you ask us to delete it.
