Common questions
Can LogixLevel migrate us from Kajabi?
Yes — see Migration Without Losing a Lead. Contacts, pipelines and automations are mapped and parallel-run before cutover.
Is GoHighLevel harder to set up than Kajabi?
Out of the box, yes — it does more, so there is more to configure. That is why it is usually installed by an implementation partner. Once configured, day-to-day use is a single inbox and calendar.
