SWITCH TO HIVEFINITY

Switch systems. Keep your business.

You should not have to rebuild years of work just to use better software. Hivefinity helps bring across the useful parts of your existing setup, shows you what has been matched, and lets you review it before you go live.

WHAT “SWITCHING” MEANS

We help build your new Hivefinity setup from the business you already run.

You show us the system you use today. Hivefinity identifies the parts that can be brought across, prepares them in the new system, and puts anything uncertain in front of you for review. You are not asked to sit there retyping every class and future booking by hand.

1

START WITH THE BUSINESS YOU ALREADY RUN

Your current setup is the starting point.

Website, classes, bookings, customer details and dates may live in different places today. We start there rather than asking you to rebuild everything from a blank screen.

WHAT CAN MOVE ACROSS?

Bring the work you have already done.

The exact move depends on the system you use now, but these are the things we focus on first because they matter most on launch day.

01

Classes & activities

Names, descriptions, durations, prices and the basic structure of what you sell.

EXAMPLEWheel Throwing Workshop · 2.5 hours · £95
02

Future dates

The upcoming sessions already on your calendar, so customers do not lose the dates they have booked.

EXAMPLESaturday 18 April · 10:00 · 12 places
03

Future bookings

The bookings you still need to deliver, with the people and session attached to the right place.

EXAMPLESarah Collins · 2 guests · Wheel Throwing
04

Customer details

The customer information your current system can provide, so you do not start with an empty address book.

WHAT THE TENANT SEES

A review screen you can actually understand.

Hivefinity shows what was found, what matched and anything that needs your decision. Nothing important is silently guessed or pushed live behind your back.

Nothing goes live until you approve it.

OWNER CONTROL You decide what goes live.
Important

Different systems store different information. Before anything is moved, we show you what can be brought across and what cannot.

MAP IT INTO HIVEFINITY

The useful pieces come together.

Hivefinity lines up the parts that belong together — without making you re-enter the same information in four different places.

HOW THE MOVE WORKS

Four steps. No leap of faith.

You can see what is happening at each stage. The goal is a controlled move, not a mysterious import followed by crossed fingers.

Hivefinity builds a draft.

Classes, sessions and bookings are lined up in the new system before it becomes your live setup.

?0 silently guessed

You check the important bits.

If something is unclear, it is shown to you. You decide instead of the software quietly making assumptions.

04
READY Clay & Bloom Studio Classes · dates · bookings · customers

Then you switch.

Once the setup is checked, Hivefinity is ready to become the place you run future bookings from.

YOU STAY IN CONTROL

We do not hide the awkward bits.

If the old system contains something that does not translate cleanly, the answer is not to guess. Hivefinity should show you the difference and ask you what you want to do.

✓

Clear matches can move quickly.If the class, date and booking line up, there is no reason to make you re-enter them.

!

Unclear items are flagged.You see the things that need a human decision.

Nothing important is silently invented.If we cannot prove the match, we do not pretend we can.

LAUNCH DAY

The aim is simple: your next working day should still make sense.

Your future classes are there. The bookings you need to deliver are there. Your team can see what is coming up. Customers can keep booking.

Better software should remove disruption — not create a new project for you to manage.

A STRAIGHT ANSWER

Can everything be imported?

Not always. Every booking system stores information differently, and some systems make more data available than others. We would rather tell you exactly what can move than promise a magical one-click import that does not exist.

Before you switch, you should know what Hivefinity can bring across, what may need checking, and what may need to stay as old history.

SWITCH TO HIVEFINITY

Move forward.
Without starting again.

Bring the useful parts of the business you already built. Review the move. Then start using Hivefinity.
