Switching

How switching to HAYLO works.

Your team keeps working while we move your data, from your old system and your spreadsheets. We check every figure against your own sheets, and you switch the day the numbers match.

  1. Tell us what you have

    On a 20-minute demo, tell us what you run in your current system and in your spreadsheets. We tell you exactly what comes across.

  2. Export what you have

    Export your candidates, contacts and companies to CSV or Excel, along with the master workbook you keep for billings, contractors and targets.

  3. Import together, row by row

    We do the import with you. You see a preview of every row before anything is saved, and you can undo a whole import in one go.

  4. Switch when the numbers match

    Keep your current system open while we check every figure against your own sheets. Bring across a fresh copy just before you switch: nothing is added twice.

What comes across

  • Candidates, contacts and companies, from a CSV or Excel export.
  • Your master workbook for billings, contractors and targets.
  • Anything else you keep: tell us on the demo and we will tell you exactly what comes across.

What we promise

  • You see a preview of every row before anything is saved.
  • Import the same file twice and nothing is added twice.
  • You can undo a whole import in one go.
  • We do the import with you, and check every figure against your own sheets.
