Why Dietitians Leave HoneyBook

✗Starter rose from $19 to $36/month on Feb 4, 2025 (+89%).
✗Payment processing fees add up
✗Limited geographic availability
✗Team member caps on lower tiers
✗Not suited for complex workflows
✗My least favorite thing is the price. As a solo entrepreneur, budget is tight and the barrier to entry is around $40 a m
Dietitians are leaving HoneyBook every week.

You're not the only one who's had enough.

Why This Matters for Dietitians

Most of my clients come to me with a diagnosis or a goal: diabetes, high blood pressure, digestive problems, pregnancy, weight or an athlete wanting to perform better. The first appointment is an hour of assessment: medical history and lab results, medications, what they actually eat on a normal day, their schedule, budget and cooking skills, because a plan they can't follow is useless. From that I build recommendations and a practical plan, often starting with two or three changes rather than a complete overhaul. Follow-up sessions track progress, adjust the plan and deal with what got in the way. Everything is documented, and for clients with medical conditions I coordinate with their doctor. Many of my clients' visits are covered by insurance, which means verifying benefits, getting referrals where required, submitting claims and handling denials; others pay privately or in packages. I stay current with research and complete continuing-education credits to keep my credential and licence. Some weeks include a workshop for a local employer or a talk at a community centre.

Dietitians face unique challenges: Insurance vs. private pay billing complexity. Recurring clients need consistent scheduling. Meal plan creation time often exceeds billed consultation time. Package pricing vs. per-session pricing decisions. On top of all that, HoneyBook charges $36/month ($432/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median dietitian earns $50,000/year. Software at $432/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Nutrition analysis software is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

FAQ

Is Nexa really a HoneyBook replacement for dietitians?

For solo operators and small teams (1-5), yes. Nexa includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting. HoneyBook may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.

$279 seems like a lot.

It's $7.75/month over 3 years. HoneyBook is $36/month — that's $1,296 over 3 years. Which is more? And if you'd rather split it, Nexa is also available as 3 payments of $99.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes. Nexa is $279 as a one-time payment, or 3 payments of $99 ($297 total). Either way it's a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring fees ever.

What if I don't like it?

30-day money-back guarantee. Full refund. If Nexa doesn't save you $500 in year one, you get every penny back.

Can I import my HoneyBook data?

Export your data from HoneyBook as CSV, import into Nexa in about 5 minutes.
