What you get

What you get when you connect Vagaro.

Milo connects with the client ID and secret Vagaro issues under Settings, Developers, APIs and Webhooks.

Appointments both ways

Bookings and changes made in Vagaro appear in Milo, and bookings made in Milo are sent to Vagaro.

Services and team pulled in

Milo brings in your Vagaro locations, services and team members, and keeps them refreshed.

Vagaro checkouts reach Milo

A checkout in Vagaro arrives in Milo with its tax, tip and payment type, on the matching visit.

Blocked time stays in step

Personal and blocked time in Vagaro blocks the same time in Milo, so neither system double-books.

Your history, imported

Import clients, services and past sales from CSV or Excel exports. Milo shows what will be added first and never duplicates a client.

Processing time Vagaro doesn't send

Set colour processing on a service in Milo and synced visits get the free window too, so the gap can be booked.

No big-bang switch

Keep Vagaro running while your team learns Milo.

With the two-way sync on, a booking made in either system shows up in the other. Your clients notice nothing, and your team moves over when they're ready.

  • Appointments, changes and blocked time sync
  • Vagaro checkouts recorded on the Milo visit
  • Client lists and sales history import from files
  • Duplicates matched, never doubled

Questions

Vagaro alternative, answered.

Milo the mascot thinking
Is Milo a good alternative to Vagaro?

Milo covers online booking, a team calendar, reminders, client records, checkout and reports, at a flat monthly price from CA$15.99 with no commission on bookings. It can import your Vagaro data or sync with Vagaro both ways while you switch.

Can Milo sync with Vagaro?

Yes. Connect Vagaro with the client ID and secret from Vagaro's APIs and Webhooks settings. Appointments, changes and blocked time sync both ways, services and team come across, and Vagaro checkouts are recorded in Milo.

Can I import my clients and history from Vagaro?

Yes. Export your client list and transaction history from Vagaro, then import the CSV or Excel files in Milo. Milo previews what will be added, matches existing clients instead of duplicating them, and brings in past sales for your reports.

Can I keep using Vagaro while I try Milo?

Yes. With the sync on, bookings made in either system appear in the other, so you can run both side by side for as long as you like and move your team over gradually.

How much does Milo cost?

Three plans: Basic is $15.99, Pro is $20.99 and Max is $30.99 CAD a month. Creating an account is free and new workspaces get 14 days of Pro; you choose a plan in Settings when you're ready.
