Compare Fitrockr with Fitabase

Overview

Fitabase focuses on a selected use case with narrow or basic functionality. You get a platform that supports this specific use case but with a restricted functionality. If you do not fit 100% into their given feature set, there is not much flexibility to support your scenario.

Fitrockr is built differently. Fitrockr is a vertical platform company: the unified wearable API, which supports 700+ device models, is the foundation, but it also adds a plug-and-play, ready-to-use, no-code, flexible platform, workflow engine, flexible configuration and hosting services on top of it. This is where Fitrockr leaves the competition behind. Local cloud hosting, sole data processing, highest security standards, deepest wearable integration, extensive functionality, vast project experience (since 2018) and premium support, just to name a few.
