Migration

Bring your data with you

Changing booking software should not mean retyping your client list or rebuilding your menu from scratch. When your current system can supply a spreadsheet or CSV, you can import it into Salono. Align the columns, review the preview and go live when the figures look right.

What usually transfers

Each platform exports in its own format. We look at your file and tell you what will import cleanly and what may need a manual tidy. In many cases we can bring across the following.

Clients and contacts

Names, telephone numbers and email addresses into Salono profiles, where the export is clear enough to map reliably.

Services and menu

Service names, durations and prices so you are not rebuilding the menu entry by entry.

Staff and columns

Staff names and rota columns when the file includes them, so the diary matches who works on the floor.

Appointments and history

Past and future appointments as far back as your old system allows. We agree scope before we commit to dates or volume.

How it works

Import in three steps

Export from your existing tool, map fields in Salono, then confirm before anything goes live. You can run that flow yourself, or ask us to manage it when the file needs extra care or your previous system is awkward to export from.

Self-serve import or a quoted service

Importing your own files through Salono is free. You pay only when you want our time to run the migration, interpret a difficult export or investigate what your previous supplier can still provide.

Do it yourself

Free

Export from your current system, upload into Salono, map the fields and complete the import. There is no charge for that path.

We run it for you

Quoted fee

We handle export, mapping, import and validation, or work through what your old system can still produce when the layout is uneven. The fee reflects time and complexity; we agree the number before we start.

Clear quotes, sensible timing

Once we understand your previous system and the shape of your data, we return a straightforward quote that spells out what is included, what would sit outside the scope and roughly how long it will take. No surprises on scope, then we agree price.
