Migrate from Genbook
to SchedulingKit
Genbook was a long-running appointment scheduling product launched in 2006 and acquired by Booksy in 2021, with most existing customers migrated onto Booksy or actively looking for a replacement. The original Genbook was popular with personal-care professionals, instructors, and small clinics that liked its built-in review system and simple admin experience. Teams now leaving Genbook typically want to avoid the heavier Booksy marketplace model and find a cleaner, actively developed scheduler instead. SchedulingKit delivers that with unlimited event types on every plan, two-way Google, Outlook, and iCloud sync, automated email and SMS reminders, intake forms, branded booking pages, payment collection via Stripe, PayPal, and Square, and a roadmap of regular feature updates.
Migrating from Genbook to SchedulingKit takes about 30-60 minutes. This step-by-step guide covers data export, account setup, and going live.
