Switch in a day

Switch from MechanicDesk to Workshop Hub in a day

Australian workshops leave MechanicDesk for simpler pricing, more logins included, or tools that sit in one plan. Workshop Hub is built in a working Australian workshop.

Limited offer for the first 50 shops: 70% off for 3 months (Solo $17.70, Shop $38.70, Pro+ $56.70 + GST), then your normal price is locked for life, plus free data import.

Why workshops switch

  • Solo starts at $59 + GST with 2 staff logins; Shop is $129 + GST with 10 logins. MechanicDesk’s published Starter plan is $85 + GST with 1 user (check their site for current tiers).
  • Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks Online sync is included on every Workshop Hub plan, including Solo.
  • Built-in AI missing-charge check, online bookings and a mechanic phone app — no separate bolt-ons for the basics.
  • Free data import for founding members: customers, vehicles and (where your export allows) job history. Service reminders stay off until you turn them on.

How the switch works

  1. Export customers and vehicles from your current system (CSV or Excel).
  2. Start a Workshop Hub trial and tell us you are switching — founding members get free import.
  3. We load your customers and vehicles; you set rates, hours and staff PINs.
  4. Run both systems for a day or two, then switch the diary and invoices over.

FAQ

Will I lose my customers if I leave MechanicDesk?

How long does the switch take?
Most small shops can be live the same day once the CSV is ready — set rates and staff PINs, import customers, then run the diary on Workshop Hub.
What does Workshop Hub cost after founding?
After the founding 3 months at 70% off, you pay the normal plan price locked for life (no future rises) on the founding offer. List prices are Solo $59, Shop $129, Pro+ $189 + GST.
