Migration from Wix
Migrate from Wix to BisHub
A practical migration guide for service businesses moving from a standalone website to a site connected with operations: what to move first, how to validate data, and how to connect customers, work, files, invoices, online payments, communication, and reports in BisHub.
Migration strategy
Wix migrations should protect the public website, domain plan, service pages, forms, leads, booking flow, images, portfolio, business hours, and contact details while connecting new inquiries to BisHub. The safest migration is staged: preserve domain details, service pages, portfolio images, forms, leads, booking links, business hours, SEO basics, and customer contact details, review imported data before committing, and move daily operations only after the team has tested the workflow in BisHub. Do not change the website and operations workflow blindly on the same day. Test lead capture and booking first.
How to migrate without disrupting work
Use this as a practical cutover plan. The exact exports depend on your current system, but the validation sequence should stay the same.
- Step 01
Audit current data
List the records your team still uses every week. Prioritize active customers, open work, unpaid invoices, current files, team members, services, and payment status before older history.
- Step 02
Export from Wix
Use the exports your current system provides, then clean columns, normalize names, remove duplicate contacts, and separate clients, jobs, invoices, payments, services, users, files, and notes.
- Step 03
Map and review in BisHub
Bring the staged data into BisHub through CSV/import workflows, map fields, review the preview, and commit records only after the office team confirms the structure.
- Step 04
Run a controlled cutover
Run both systems for a short cutover window, test booking, communication, estimates, invoices, online payments, reports, and team access, then move daily work into BisHub.
Move this first
- Core pages, public services, service areas, contact information, business hours, social links, portfolio images, and booking calls to action.
- Lead forms, form fields, booking requests, customer upload needs, and the destination for new inquiries.
- Domain checklist, redirects, page titles, meta descriptions, and LocalBusiness schema details.
Validation checklist
Before the old workflow is turned off, check the records that affect customers, teams, invoices, payments, and reporting.
Website to lead flow
Submit test forms and booking requests to confirm they create useful lead and customer records in BisHub.
SEO continuity
Check titles, descriptions, service areas, contact information, business hours, portfolio pages, and redirects before launch.
Client records
Confirm names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, contacts, tags, and duplicate handling before the team starts new work.
Open work
Check active projects, work items, tasks, schedules, files, assignments, and notes against the current system.
Invoices and payments
Verify invoice numbers, balances, payment status, payment accounts, revenue, expenses, and unpaid work.
Team access
Test roles, permissions, organization isolation, team assignments, clock-in access, and reporting visibility.

Migration FAQ
Can we migrate from Wix to BisHub?
Yes. Start with the exports your current system provides, then use BisHub import workflows to map and review staged data before committing it to active operations.
What should we move first?
Move active customers, open work, unpaid invoices, current files, team users, service lists, and payment status first. Older archive history can move later if the team still searches it.
Do we need to migrate every historical record?
Usually no. A safer rollout starts with current operations, then adds history only where it improves support, reporting, compliance, or customer follow-up.
How do payments work after migration?
BisHub connects estimates, proposals, invoices, online payments, payment tracking, payment accounts, revenue tracking, profit tracking, and financial reports.
Can files and documents move into BisHub?
Yes. Teams can store files with previews, PDF preview, video preview, image gallery, OCR, AI document analysis, AI summaries, metadata extraction, and global file search.
How should we avoid breaking daily operations?
Run a short pilot, test booking, communication, files, estimates, invoices, payments, reports, permissions, and team access, then cut over one team or workflow at a time.
Plan your Wix migration
Start with active customers, open work, unpaid invoices, current files, team users, and payment status. Then expand the migration after the workflow is proven.
