You're here because you just signed up with Keela, or maybe you're just poking around our Knowledge Base to get a feel of what it's like to join the Keela family. Well, hop right in and let's discover a day in the life of onboarding to Keela!
We know that having a choice is important when it comes to starting out with a new system! Some folks like to jump in and begin from the ground up - completing every step themselves! Other folks like a little bit of support here and there to make their set up a breeze.
That's why we offer a variety of self serve and paid services so you can pick and choose what works best for you!
Want us to complete your Data Imports only? No worries - we offer a Professional Service just for this.
Want to do this yourself? No worries - we have oodles of resources to support you through the process!
No matter what you choose, it's important to know that you will be supported EVERY step of the way.

Professional Services
Sit back and relax while the Professional Services team takes care of some of the onboarding tasks on your behalf. If you're running short on time (who isn't in the non-profit world?), don't feel like getting your spreadsheets up to snuff to our import requirements, or just want to get setup quickly with little effort, we recommend purchasing some professional services for a head start in Keela.
