TRAININGPEAKS
VS TODAY'S PLAN

QUICK VERDICT

TrainingPeaks is the industry default and what most coaches use — pick it if you're starting with a coach or want maximum coach-compatibility. Today's Plan has deeper built-in intelligence and is preferred by a growing minority of coaches — worth it if your coach specifically uses it. Functionally similar for the athlete; the difference is ecosystem.
