Switching to VISTA

Moving platforms is the scary part.
So you hand it to us.

You've built years of client history, notes, and before-and-after photos on your current system. Switching to VISTA is a white-glove migration run by a dedicated specialist — with a parallel-run period so you can see everything landed before you go live.

Your practice moves with you
— including the photos.

A generic export often drops the things a med spa cares about most. Our import pipeline is built for medical aesthetics, so it's designed to bring the full record, not just the last couple of years of text.

What actually transfers depends on what your current system can export — we confirm the exact scope with you on the first call, before anything moves.

A migration you can watch
happen, step by step.

Every switch is a little different, but the shape is the same. Most single-site med spas are live within a couple of weeks; timing depends on how clean your export is.

1
Week 1 · Discovery

We map what you have

A working call to see your current system, agree on exactly what to bring over, and set your go-live target. You meet the specialist who'll own the move.

2
Export

Your data comes out

We help you pull the export from your current platform — clients, history, notes, photos, memberships. Start this before your access or contract lapses so nothing gets stranded.

3
Import & build

We load and map it into VISTA

Your records are imported and mapped, your service menu and chart templates are built, and your booking site and apps are branded — while you keep running on your old system.

4
Parallel run

You check everything landed

A parallel-run period where you review clients, balances, and photos in VISTA against your old system, so there are no surprises. We fix anything that didn't map cleanly.

5
Go live

You switch, we're on call

Your team trains, you flip the switch, and we stay close through your first days live. Then you close out your old contract on your own timeline.

A quick exit checklist.

Two things trip people up when they leave an incumbent: notice windows and export windows. Check your current contract early — the goal is to have your data safely in VISTA before your old access ends.

  • 1 Find your notice window. Some platforms need advance notice before a term ends and won't let you cancel a fixed term mid-cycle. For example, Mindbody's own guidance says fixed 12/24/36-month terms auto-renew and require at least 30 days' notice before the term ends (as of July 2026 — check your own agreement).
  • 2 Find your data-export window. Export access is often time-limited after you cancel — commonly around 30 days — and may carry a fee. Pull your full export before you cancel, not after.
  • 3 Get your images out too. Before-and-after photos and consent documents are sometimes excluded from a standard export. Confirm they're included, and grab them separately if they aren't.
  • 4 Line up the dates. We time your VISTA go-live so your history is imported and verified before your old subscription lapses — no gap, no scramble.

Sources & notes. The Mindbody notice/term detail is from Mindbody's own published guidance (mindbodyonline.com), accessed July 2026. Export windows and fees vary by vendor and by contract — the figures here are general guidance, not a statement about any one provider; always confirm against your own agreement. VISTA pricing is $497/mo flat as of July 2026; phone and telehealth are optional paid add-ons.

What changes for your team.

The point of moving isn't just new software — it's fewer tools, one login, and no per-seat math.

👥

Everyone gets a login

Unlimited staff at no extra cost. Add front desk, providers, and managers without watching a per-user meter.

🧩

One platform, not five

Charting, booking, storefront, payments, marketing, and your apps share one live record — with a phone system available as an add-on, built in rather than bolted on.
