Delenta vs. Coaching.com: A Strategic Comparison for Coaching Consultancies

As coaching consultancies grow beyond manual workflows and disconnected systems, the choice of platform becomes a strategic decision. For firms managing multiple coaches and serving corporate clients worth £1M+ annually, the right platform impacts everything  from operational efficiency to client satisfaction and revenue protection.

While both Delenta & Coaching.com serve the coaching industry, they’re built for entirely different business models.

Built for Real Coaching Operations

Delenta is purpose-built for boutique coaching firms that value personalization, flexibility, and operational simplicity, offering an intuitive, simple UI/UX, easy onboarding for coaching teams, and seamless online & in-person session scheduling.

Boutique coaching firms often manage a network of diverse coaches, some tech-savvy, others less so. Delenta is designed to accommodate this with:

• Easy-to-use interface for coaches of all ages & tech abilities
• Native mobile app for session delivery and tracking
• Centralized admin dashboard
• Coach onboarding without steep learning curves

Our coaches range in age from 30 to 65+, and Delenta has supported all of them seamlessly from day one, Our goal was to find a partner who understood not just technology, but the spirit of coaching. Delenta’s team worked hand-in-hand with us not as a vendor, but as a true partner in impact - says Laure Fraval, President of ICF UK

Why Coaching Consultancies Choose Delenta

• Intuitive, coach-friendly platform designed for ease of use
• Seamless enterprise-grade integration to your existing tech stack ( eg.Hubspot / Salesforce)
• Real-time coach visibility: 24-hour dashboard view of all coach activities - no more manual chasing or email updates
• Automatic session logging eliminates human error in billing‍
• Administrative time recovery: Eliminates 60-70 hours monthly of manual reconciliation & XL data entry
• Preserves your control: Admin-managed coach assignments with no marketplace features - keeps your relationship-driven model intact‍
• Scales without complexity: Ready to handle doubled coach capacity without proportional admin overhead increases
• Fully white-labeled client experience to reinforce your brand
• Dedicated account manager and implementation team for personalized support
• Delenta offers the best client experience, the most flexible features, and unmatched 1:1 human support all at a price that makes sense

Unlike Coaching.com, which acts as a software provider, Delenta becomes your strategic partner

Automated Tracking = Protected Revenue

For consultancies billing over £1M/year, missed or unlogged sessions represent a real financial risk. Manual tracking = errors, delays, and lost income.

Delenta: Operational Safeguards Built In

• Auto-session logging eliminates missed entries
• Real-time billable hours tracking tied to client progress
• Streamlined invoicing & reconciliation
• HubSpot integration ensures CRM data sync without duplication

Coaching.com: Misaligned with Boutique Billing

• Session tracking exists, but payroll structures don’t support:
  • Variable rates
  • Package rate assigned to coaches
  • Hour-based reconciliation

Client Experience That Reflects Your Brand

Executive Clients Expect Excellence

Your High-value clients expect sleek, modern, brand-aligned seamless digital experiences. Anything less hurts brand perception.

Delenta: Your Brand, Their Experience

• Full white-labelling to reflect your firm’s identity
• Client portal designed for executives simple, elegant, mobile-friendly
• Flexible scheduling & communication tools
• Designed for firms delivering relationship-driven experiences

Coaching.com: Clinical, Corporate Feel

UX may feel impersonal and overly rigid for boutique firms' clients

Integration That Protects Existing Investments

Delenta: Deep HubSpot Integration

For firms already using HubSpot, Delenta offers:

• Native integration with custom field mapping
• Automated status updates (e.g. coaching phase, session counts)
• Dual pipeline support for sales + service delivery
• A “HubSpot Guarantee” refund onboarding fees if integration fails

With Coaching.com Integrations exist, but they’re often tailored for enterprise stacks and don’t accommodate nuanced coaching CRM workflows.

Scalable Without the Complexity

Delenta: Built to Grow With You

• Licensing flexibility for active/inactive coaches
• Gradual rollout options (pilot → full deployment)
• Admin role hierarchies for better delegation
• Transparent, cost-effective pricing
