Switching to Mangomint without any downtime

Switching to Mangomint is easy, free, and takes less than two weeks. It's hands-on and personalized to accommodate your needs. We built our onboarding process the way our team of former stylists, estheticians, and spa professionals always wished software onboarding had been.

Did I mention it’s easy? Because it’s really easy. We were rated the #1 Easiest to Use salon and spa management software in 2025 for a reason!

I ran my own salon in California before joining Mangomint as Director of Onboarding, so I know the gut-wrenching anxiety that comes from switching your salon or spa software. It can feel really intimidating because some companies make it more complicated than it needs to be.

Instead of a stretched-out, tedious process that takes months, we get you into the product working with our features immediately so you can feel what your everyday work flow could be right away.

"When we switched from our previous software, our bookings increased by 20%. The interface is modern and intuitive, and our team picked it up quickly without much training." - Franky, Owner, WFLYH

Let's walk through it.

How Mangomint onboarding works

Mangomint onboarding typically takes less than two weeks, but we work based on your timeline. If you want to launch next week, we’re going to move mountains to get you there. I’ve seen customers fully launched with all of their data within 24 hours of starting their free trial.

Mangomint’s general onboarding process is:

• Start a free trial

• Meet with our team

• Go through your must-haves

• Complete set up

• Launch

Unlike other salon and spa software that charge up to $495, Mangomint’s onboarding is free. We want you to feel confident you chose the right software before you pay us a dime.

Plus, we don’t do contracts. So that’s never part of the process.

Free trial

The first step is to start your free trial. As of August 2026, Mangomint’s trial experience doesn’t have a time limit and allows you to fully experience the software before committing to anything.

You can explore Mangomint in playground mode, using sample data to test out our core features, like online booking, memberships and packages, payments, and Automated Flows. You can add your logo and brand colors, “book” appointments, create your service menu, and more.

It’s completely risk free. No credit card required.

Onboarding support

After you start your free trial, our team will reach out so you can schedule a 1:1 meeting with your onboarding manager. During that meeting, you’ll share your timeline, expectations, and any other nitty-gritty details. Your onboarding manager will go through our pricing, data transfer, and set up the features you may need, like payment processing or payroll. After that, it’s full steam ahead to get you ready for launch day.

If you’re a solo provider, you’re invited to join one of our weekly onboarding webinars where you’ll learn how to set up your solo-specific account. A recorded webinar is also available if you don’t want to join live.

Data transfer

All Mangomint customers receive complimentary data transfers. When you’re ready to start importing your real data into your trial account, our team will go above and beyond to get as much information from your previous software as we possibly can. We know how stressful this part can feel, but our team will be by your side every step of the way.

For most systems, we can import the following:

• Clients

• Products / Inventory

• Gift cards

Once we receive your client data, the import typically takes about 24 hours. Your products, inventory, and gift cards will be imported a few days before your launch date to ensure you have accurate stock levels and gift card balances.

We may or may not be able to transfer your client notes, formulas, previous sales, and previous appointments. This depends on your previous software.

Just an FYI: if you ever decide we're not the best fit for your business, we'll give you a full data export so you can take all of your data with you.

More resources

Throughout your entire onboarding process, our nationwide customer support team can help with whatever you need. They're only one click away and typically answer in less than 6 minutes. Many of them spent years in the industry as service providers, so they're always down to talk shop!

Launching with Mangomint

On launch day, we’ll quadruple-check everything’s working properly before celebrating our new beginning together. All of your appointments, gift card balances, and inventory will be safely in Mangomint by this time, so your clients won’t experience any interruptions while you switch.

Your front desk manager will be shocked how quickly they fall in love with Mangomint. We’ve heard our customers say that since switching, they can now "make it to happy hour sooner" because “everything is so easy.” So make of that what you will… 🥂
