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.
