Why Pool Pros Are Switching

We've heard the frustrations. Here's what drove you to look for alternatives.

Price Doubled Overnight

Skimmer went from $1 to $2 per pool in 2024 with minimal notice. For a 100-pool route, that's $1,200 more per year.

Bloated Features

Paying for enterprise features you don't need? Most solo techs just want routes, chemicals, and invoicing.

Clunky Mobile Experience

You live on your phone in the field. The app should be fast, work offline, and not fight you.

Migration Questions? We've Got Answers.

Everything you need to know about switching from Skimmer to PoolNoodle.

Yes! Export your customer list from Skimmer as a CSV, and we'll help you import it. Most customers complete the import in under 15 minutes. We support importing customer details, service addresses, pool specifications, and service history notes. Payment history can be referenced but stays in Skimmer for accounting purposes.
Most pool service businesses complete the full migration in 15-30 minutes. Here's the typical timeline: Export from Skimmer (5 min) → Import to PoolNoodle (5 min) → Review & verify data (5-10 min) → Mobile app setup (5 min). We provide a step-by-step checklist and support via email if you get stuck.
Your historical payment data stays in Skimmer for your accounting records. Going forward, PoolNoodle processes payments through Stripe with the same 2.9% + $0.30 standard rate. You'll have full access to new payment history, invoices, and reports within PoolNoodle. Many customers export a year-end summary from Skimmer for their records before switching.
Nope! The switch is completely invisible to your customers. They'll continue to receive service as usual. If you use the customer portal, you can send them a one-time email with new login credentials, but their service schedule, pool details, and preferences all carry over seamlessly.
Smart! Start with our free tier (up to 10 pools, no credit card required). Import a small subset of your customers to test the workflow. Once you're confident, import the rest and upgrade to the $49/month plan. You can run both systems in parallel during your trial period.
Yes, you own your data. You can export customer lists, service notes, and invoices as CSV at any time. There are no long-term contracts or cancellation fees. While we're confident you'll love PoolNoodle, you're free to leave anytime with your data intact.
Absolutely! Every new customer gets free onboarding support via email. We'll review your CSV import, help configure your service routes, and walk you through mobile app setup. For larger teams (10+ pools), we can schedule a live setup call. Our goal is to get you up and running in under an hour.
We currently support CSV export for QuickBooks and similar accounting software. Native integrations are on our roadmap based on customer demand. If you have specific integration needs, let us know — we prioritize features based on what pool pros actually need, not enterprise bloat.
