Switching from HoneyBook
Bring your HoneyBook clients and projects with you.
Semuko includes a free importer for HoneyBook exports. Download your contacts and reports from HoneyBook, drop them into Semuko, check how the columns line up, and import.
The importer reads CSV and PDF files you download. It does not sign in to another product or copy anything from it.
What HoneyBook lets you export
Know what comes across before you start
From HoneyBook’s help center. HoneyBook describes what each download contains but does not publish the column names, so Semuko suggests a match for each column and you confirm it.

Contacts spreadsheet
Clients, then Contacts, then the triple-dot menu and Download spreadsheet. It holds each contact’s name, email, phone, address, notes and the date the contact was created.Projects and payments reports
HoneyBook’s Reports page downloads CSV files, including Projects (booked and unbooked projects with participants and financials) and Payments completed (income with project and client details, totals paid, gratuity, discounts and refunds). Only the account owner and super admins can download reports, and the Projects report needs the Essentials or Premium plan.Contracts are one PDF at a time
There is no bulk PDF export. Open each signed file in its project, use the three-dot menu and choose Download as PDF. Semuko attaches those PDFs to the matching client or project.What does not come across
There is no invoice CSV, so open invoices and payment schedules are rebuilt in Semuko. Email history, questionnaires and templates are not part of these exports either.HoneyBook pricing
HoneyBook’s pricing page lists Starter at $29, Essentials at $49 and Premium at $109 a month, billed yearly, with a free trial.

How to move
Six steps from HoneyBook to Semuko
Download your HoneyBook files
Download the contacts spreadsheet. If your plan and role allow it, also download the Projects and Payments completed reports from Reports. Save them as CSV.Start a trial
Start a 30-day trial (no credit card), then open Settings, Preferences, Import from another CRM.Upload, check the mapping, preview
Drop in the CSV files. Columns are matched to Semuko fields and you can change any match. Map each project status to one of your Semuko statuses. The preview shows duplicate emails and which people already exist in your account, so nothing is created twice.Import
Contacts become clients (or leads), projects become events with their dates, venue and status, and payments become paid invoice records. Large files run in the background. When it finishes you get a summary and a CSV of any skipped rows with the reason for each.Attach signed contracts
Download each signed contract from HoneyBook as a PDF and add them on the summary screen. Each PDF is matched to a client or project by its file name, and you can change the match before attaching.Run it again any time
Each imported row is remembered, so importing a newer export updates the records the first run created instead of duplicating them. Imported records do not trigger workflows or emails to your clients.
FAQ
Switching from HoneyBook: questions
Can Semuko import HoneyBook projects?
Yes, from HoneyBook’s Projects report. Each project becomes a Semuko event linked to its client, with its date, venue and a status you choose for each HoneyBook status. Projects without a date are listed in the skipped-rows file, because Semuko events need a date.
Do HoneyBook invoices come across?
Completed payments do, from the Payments completed report: each becomes a paid invoice record with its payment, so your payment history is in Semuko. HoneyBook does not offer an invoice export, so unpaid invoices and schedules are recreated in Semuko.
What happens if I import the same file twice?
Semuko remembers every row it imported. A second import of the same export, or a newer one, updates those records instead of making copies. People who were already in Semuko before the import are matched by email and only their empty fields are filled in.
Will my clients get emails when I import them?
No. Imported clients, leads, events and payments skip workflows, receipts and marketing syncs.
What if some rows do not import?
The summary counts them and offers a CSV of the skipped rows with a reason for each, such as a project with no date or a payment with no amount, so you can fix them and import that file again.
Does the importer cost extra?
No. Importing is included on every Semuko plan and during the free trial.
