Do you use my existing booking system?
Yes! We can generally work directly within your existing booking platform, so appointments, notes, and communication stay organized in one place.
Can I keep my current business number?

Can support be customized for my business?
Absolutely! Every business has different workflows, communication preferences, booking systems, and client expectations. We customize support to fit your business and brand experience during our onboarding process.
How does onboarding work?
We start with a consultation to learn about your business, workflow, booking system, and communication preferences. From there, we customize your setup, create support guidelines, and prepare your business for launch.
Will I still stay informed about client communications?
Of course! Opal Desk is designed to support your business, not replace your visibility into it. Communication workflows, escalations, and reporting are discussed during onboarding, so you stay informed and in control of your client experience.
