What you give up
Kajabi is the tool to keep if you use the pipelines. Thinkific is the tool to keep if exams are the product. WithMe is the tool to open if you want the hub and you will not live in either of those editors. Free migration is only on the yearly plan. It takes 5 to 10 working days, and your old site stays live until you approve the new hub.
