Can you import directly from ServiceM8?

Not directly. Export your clients and properties from ServiceM8 as a spreadsheet, copy them into our import templates, check the preview and approve it.

Can I run both while I switch?

Yes. You can keep the old system for past records and start new bookings in CleaningCentral during the trial.
