Changing garage software without losing ten years of history
Changing software is scary for one simple reason: the history. Plyx was built to take over your data as it is, from your current software. Before the switch, we check with you, on your own data, what is migrated: the aim is that you retype nothing.
What Plyx takes over
- Customers and vehicles, with all their fields: customer numbers, VAT, plates, chassis numbers, mileages, inspection dates.
- The invoice history, with its line items: parts, labour, packages, not just totals. Every old invoice opens in Plyx as if it had been made there.
- The legal register of interventions, including entries still open.
- The planning: upcoming appointments are carried over as they are.
- The parts stock and the suppliers.
- Invoice numbers continue where your old software stopped: no break in the sequence, no duplicates.
From which software?
We have already migrated two Belgian garage software packages in depth, invoice lines and register included. For other software, a spreadsheet or binders, we start from your exports and check the figures together before the switch. What matters is that your data arrives complete.
Migration free of charge if we already know your software
Is your software one we have already migrated? Then the full migration of your data is free of charge: customers, vehicles, invoices with their lines, register, planning and stock, invoice numbers included.
And the history held in your older software
Have you changed software before? If the old one can still be consulted, we can also migrate the history it holds, so that it finds its place again on each vehicle's record.
How the switch works
- An export from your current software, which we retrieve with you, and a first import into Plyx to check the figures together: number of customers, vehicles, invoices.
- A period during which you look at Plyx with your real data, without changing anything in your daily work.
- On switch day, the register and the planning are exported last and imported into Plyx. You invoice in Plyx from the next morning.
- Your old software remains available for consultation for as long as your contract with its publisher allows: nothing forces you to close it the same day.
What it asks of you
We do the migration, not you. Allow an hour on your side to validate the figures, and an evening for the switch. The details are agreed at the demonstration, with your own data.

How long does a migration take?
One day for the migration, an hour on your side to check. The switch happens one evening, and you invoice in Plyx the next day.
Do my invoice numbers continue?
Yes. Plyx continues from your old software's last number, with no gap and no duplicate, series by series.
What if my software does not export everything?
If your software's export is incomplete (invoice lines, register, planning), we retrieve that data with you, through your own access, under your written mandate and without bypassing any protection.
Can I keep my old software open for a while?
Yes, for consultation. The only rule: after the switch, you invoice in a single software, so that the numbers stay consistent.
Does the migration cost anything?
For software we have already migrated, it is free. For software that is new to us, it is agreed at the demo based on what your exports contain, and it is always done by us.
