How do I begin the process of moving from Envision Desktop to EnvisionNow?
With our simple two-step process, you will have an easy transition from Envision desktop to EnvisionNow.
The first step is to complete our pre-conversion conversation with a designated support specialist to help you develop your cloud test account. This will allow you to see the cloud account and play around with the software before you switch over. During this time, you will also have access to training videos.
Once complete, you will have a live conversion to permanently migrate your data into your new cloud account.
What does it cost?
Pricing will vary depending on the needs of your business and which features you decide on. Depending on your current package with Envision, we can match it to an equivalent EnvisionNow package.
What happens to my current desktop bill?
As you begin the transition to EnvisionNow, your billing for desktop will be suspended until you have made the complete transition over. Once the Cloud transition is final and you are up and running, you will begin your billing on the Cloud package you chose.
