Your 2-week plan

You’ll have two weeks to prepare for your upgrade. 

The key thing we need you to know is the switch requires the cooperation and participation of you and your team. You must complete the required steps as quickly as you can so that we can ensure the experience is as smooth as possible.

We will

Prepare your account ahead of the switch

Our team will start to get your account ready behind the scenes.

You must

Book a Discovery Call with our team

You’ll be prompted to book a call with our team to learn more about the switch.

You must

Complete a role-based Pabau Academy course

There’s a Pabau Academy course for every role - you must complete one before switching.

You must

Book a role-based training session

We’ve created a selection of role-based training sessions for different team members

We will

Upgrade you to Pabau 2

On your scheduled switch date, our team will upgrade your account to Pabau 2.

Please note: We require your active participation in the upgrade process. Failure to attend your Discovery Call and role-based training session and/or to complete the role-based Pabau Academy course will result in a sub-optimal switch.

Enhanced support after your upgrade

To further ensure the upgrade goes smoothly, we’ve leveled up the support we offer clients to make sure that they feel fully supported after they upgrade. Here’s what you can expect:

Call with your key accounts rep

On the day of your switch, your assigned key account specialist will schedule a call with you to ensure everything is OK.

Dedicated Slack channel for two weeks post-switch

Every clinic will be invited to a dedicated Slack channel with our team to support you through the first two weeks after upgrading.

Complimentary onsite session with our team

We’re offering a complimentary onsite to every clinic upgrading to Pabau 2. You can view our availability here.

Essential tasks for all switchers 



There are five key steps you must complete before your switch. We can’t stress enough how crucial these tasks are to switching successfully.

1. Book a Discovery Call with our team

You will be matched with a Key Accounts specialist who will walk you through any critical differences in Pabau 2 that may impact how you use the system. It’s also a great opportunity for your team to ask any questions. 

Our team will be in touch to schedule this call.   

2. Complete a role-based Pabau Academy course

In larger clinics, everyone uses Pabau slightly differently.

We’ve created role-based Pabau Academy courses to help you get a feel for the features you’ll need to do your job. These include courses for the following job roles:

3. Schedule a role-based training session

We’re also offering live, role-based training sessions so that your teams can learn exactly how to use Pabau, specific to their role. These will include sessions for:

Our team will be in touch to schedule this call.   

We also recommend that you…

Nominate a Pabau ‘change champion’ who will attend all meetings

Firstly, we highly recommend nominating a Pabau ‘change champion’ who will help to coordinate the switch. They should attend ALL meetings and ensure tasks are being completed by your team. 



Ideally, they will be technically minded and used to using all aspects of Pabau. 

Ensure your team completes the above, too

It’s important that your whole team is prepared for the switch. We highly recommend that everyone attend a role-based training session and complete a role-based academy course and the Get Started course. 

Your Pabau change champion should be responsible for this. 

How to have a successful switch

Upgrading to a new version of Pabau may feel daunting. This is especially true in larger clinics, which use more of the system and have more complicated workflows. 

If you’ve used the current system for a long time, jumping into a new one will feel very unfamiliar. We can prepare your account as much as possible, but we need you to be actively involved and do your part so that the upgrade is as smooth as possible.

You’ll have a
successful switch if…

You book a Discovery Call

This meeting is essential for learning what’s different in Pabau 1 vs Pabau 2 and to ask our team any questions

You ensure your team is on board

Everyone in your team will use Pabau differently. Your team must do a role-based training session and role-based academy course

You use the resources

We’ve put together a lot of helpful resources, including the Pabau 2 Academy, so that you can familiarize yourself with the system before your upgrade.

You’re less likely to
have a successful switch if…

You don’t book a Discovery Call

If you don’t know how Pabau 2 functions compared to Pabau 1, everything will look unfamiliar on the switch date

You don’t prepare your team

It’s crucial that your team know how the upgrade will impact their day-to-day work and they’re 100% ready for it

You don’t make time for it

If your schedule won’t allow you any time to fit in the training or to review the resources, it will mean that the transition to the system is more challenging.

Pabau 1 vs Pabau 2 Guide

Try our account management service

Account management is an optional add-on that you can choose to add to your subscription. If you want a more personalized experience during your switch, you may prefer to upgrade.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes, this switch is optional, as it’s a voluntary upgrade.

However, we will be sunsetting Pabau 1 in Q3 of 2025 (around July), and if you don’t switch now, you will hear from us later about your scheduled upgrade to Pabau 2. That switch isn’t optional.

We need two weeks to prepare your account, so generally speaking, it’s a no. If it’s really important that you switch sooner, let our team know, and we’ll see what we can do. 

We’ve created a detailed Knowledge Base guide that covers this.

In a nutshell, Pabau 2 looks and feels very different from Pabau 1. Some features have new names and function in a different way, other familiar favorites may have disappeared entirely. 

It’s also worth noting that Pabau 2 does not have an Advanced Marketing feature. If you still want upgraded marketing features, you must sign up for Marketing Plus.


Ideally, it would be the main point of contact for Pabau – whoever that may be. 

The clinic manager, medical director, operations manager, it’s up to you. Your nominated change champion should also be involved in all meetings so that they can liaise with the rest of the team, coordinate their progress, and ensure they have completed their training.

Every upgraded client will be invited to a dedicated Slack channel with our team for two weeks after their switch date. You (and your team) can use this channel as much as you like to contact us directly, ask questions, and troubleshoot any issues.

You will also be eligible for a complimentary on-site session. Meri from our Partnerships team is available to meet with clinics face-to-face and help them optimize their Pabau 2 account.
