Switching

Two ways to switch.
Pick the one that suits.

Do it yourself with our free import tool, or hand the whole job to a migration specialist for a one-off fixed quote. Either way, zero downtime.

What we move.

Everything that should come with you. Nothing that shouldn't.

Client profiles & contact details
Visit history & spend
Client notes & tags
Service menus & pricing
Staff & rotas
Future bookings
Past bookings (where exportable)
Consultation forms & files
Deposits already paid

Some platforms restrict the data they release. Where that happens, we will tell you up front, find a workaround, and rebuild what we can manually. Nothing gets quietly lost.

Recommended
Option 01  ·  Self-service

Do it yourself. CSV import.

Export your client list, services and bookings from your current platform. Upload the CSVs to Salono. Our smart mapper matches columns to fields. Preview, confirm, done.

  • Clients, services and bookings via CSV
  • Smart column mapping
  • Preview before you commit
  • You decide when to go live
Free

Included with every plan

Option 02  ·  Managed

Done for you. By a specialist.

A migration specialist takes the lot. Extracts, cleans, maps and imports your data. Chases the loose ends. Verifies every record. Signs it off before you log in.

  • Everything in self-service, plus full history
  • We extract from awkward platforms
  • Cleaned, deduplicated, mapped, verified
  • Go-live coordinated to a date that suits
Quoted

One-off, fixed fee. Based on data volume and source platform.

However you switch, three steps.

Whether you handle it or we do, the path is the same. The difference is how much of it lands on your desk.

01

Get the export

Most platforms let you export your data as CSV. With self-service, you do this and upload the files to Salono. With managed, we handle the awkward parts (and the platforms that resist).

02

Map and import

Self-service: our smart mapper matches your columns to Salono's fields, you preview the result, then confirm. Managed: a specialist cleans, deduplicates, and imports the lot, then verifies every record.

03

Go live, no downtime

Switch over on a date that suits. Your doors stay open, bookings keep coming in, deposits already taken stay taken. Not a single client gets dropped.

Not sure which one suits?

If your current platform exports cleanly and you have time on your hands, self-service is free and quick. If it's a mess, you have years of history to keep, or you would rather not touch it, get a quote for managed.

Built around you,
not the other way round.

Salono launches in August 2026. We are working with a small number of industry professionals to shape the platform before then. Add your business to the early access list and we will be in touch.

The Salono difference
01

Built from inside the industry

We come from the salon floor. The daily challenges are not research for us, they are background. Salono is the software we wished we had.

02

Designed against the admin

Every feature exists to take a job off your evening. Less reception, fewer spreadsheets, less chasing. More chair time, more clients, more revenue.

03

Shaped by independent owners

The roadmap is what owners ask for, in the order they ask for it. Not what we think they need. Your feedback decides what ships next.
