Switch without the stress

Switching takes three steps. You do one of them.

  1. 01Your job

    You send us your data

    Export from your current system, or just send us what you have. A spreadsheet is fine. We will do our best to help with any export questions about your current provider.

  2. 02Our job

    We do the import

    Our data team maps and loads your clients, history, services and pricing into your account. You check it over before anything goes live. There is no charge for this, on either plan.

    Free, on either plan

  3. 03Your job

    You go live when you are ready

    Switch your booking link over, point your domain across, and start. Most businesses run both systems side by side for a week first. We recommend it.

What comes across

Your business history stays intact.

Move the records that matter, then check them before you switch anything live.

Your clients

Names, contact details, notes, and the segments you use to market to them. Every record lands in a customer file you can open, edit and export, not a locked database.

Real people. Real help.

You will not be doing this alone.

Our data team runs your import, and the same award-winning support team is with you the whole way. Not a chatbot, not a ticket queue, and not a separate paid onboarding package. You get a person, by phone, email or live chat, in your time zone, at no cost.

The worries we hear most

Four reasons people put off switching.

We hear them on every migration call. Here is what we tell people.

  1. “I’ll lose my client history.”

    You will not. It comes across with the rest, and you check it before you go live.

  2. “I’ll lose bookings while we change over.”

    Run both systems for a week. Nothing has to go dark.

  3. “I’ll get stuck on a contract again.”

    Ovatu is month to month. Cancel any time, for any reason, and take your data with you.

  4. “My staff will hate it.”

    Train them during your 30 day trial, before you have paid anything. Web, iPhone, iPad, Android, Apple Watch and Mac.

"I am a huge advocate in working smarter and not harder… if we can have things like automation, scheduling, and appointment setting in our pocket, it's just gonna make life so much easier."

Bex

"I've had an increase in the frequency of bookings because the system's there 24/7. If I'm on holiday or unavailable, it just keeps rolling over. That wasn't possible before."

Jennifer Turner

"I liked that Ovatu could integrate into my website seamlessly, because with all the other systems out there, you have to go to a second site and I didn't want that."

Claire Howard

"My no-shows are pretty much zero. The people that book in are committed. It's brought me clients that are regular, that are reliable. That's the biggest benefit for me."

"If it's the middle of the night and my clients are up and they're thinking; 'Oh, I haven't booked this', they can still do it online, it's fantastic."

Questions before you move

The things people ask before they switch.

01

How much does the data import cost?

Nothing. Assisted migration is free for every new customer, on either plan.

02

How long does it take?

Once we have your export, our data team usually completes your import within 3 business days.

03

What if my current software will not let me export?

Tell us which software you use. Every provider handles exports differently and their steps can change, but we will do our best to help with any export queries, and we can work with whatever format you can get out.

04

Can I run both systems at once?

Yes, and we recommend it. Most businesses run both side by side for a week before switching their booking link over.

05

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Ovatu subscriptions are month to month. You can cancel any time, for any reason.

06

What happens to my booking link and my clients?

You get a new Ovatu booking page. Point your website, Instagram and Google profile at it when you go live. Your clients keep their history and future bookings.

07

What if I am mid-contract with my current provider?

Start your free trial now and we can import your data while you see out your contract, so you are ready to switch on the day it ends.

Your next chapter starts here.

Ready when
you are.
