### Customers

Names, contact details and custom fields, ready for their next booking.

### Services and resources

What you offer, and the staff, rooms or equipment that can be booked.

### Bookings

Upcoming appointments come with you, so no booking gets lost in the move.

### Events and participants

Scheduled events and classes, and who has signed up.

## How the switch works.

1

### Start your free trial.

Set up your booking page and opening hours while your old system keeps running.

2

### Send us your data.

Export from your old system and send us the file. We do the import for you.

3

### Go live when you're ready.

Point your website's booking button to Makeplans. Your customers book with you just like before.

## Your data stays yours

No lock-in, no data held hostage. If Makeplans stops being the right fit, you leave with everything you brought and everything you built.
