How to switch from Nexia to Gala

Switching does not mean a new phone number or a gap in coverage. Most businesses are live the same day. What takes longest is entering the knowledge base Gala answers from.

  1. Pull last month's numbers Count the calls and minutes on your last Nexia bill or call log. That tells you which Gala plan fits; the pricing page shows what each one includes.
  2. Book the discovery call We look at the calls coming in, the tools you use and what you want Gala to handle. Nothing is configured yet. The goal is to agree on the scope.
  3. We build the knowledge base, you validate it We assemble it from your website, your listings and public registries: services, prices, service areas and emergency rules. You correct it once, line by line.
  4. Test, then forward your number We run real scenarios with you. Then your existing number is forwarded to Gala, so you keep the number your customers already call.
  5. Cancel Nexia once Gala is answering Keep Nexia until Gala answers your forwarded line, then give notice on the terms of your Nexia agreement.

Setup costs $0 on every plan. Booking works natively with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook.
