How to switch class-scheduling software without losing your client list
The client list and pack balances are portable. The booking history usually isn't. Here's the order that avoids a gap in bookings.
Read the guide- Key takeaways
- Export your client list and pack/membership balances before you cancel anything — most platforms remove access the moment a subscription ends.
- Run the old and new booking pages in parallel for one to two weeks rather than cutting over on a single day.
- Booking history and past attendance almost never transfer between platforms. Decide up front whether you need it and export it separately if so.
