Migrate from Hopper HQ to SkedCast
Ready to migrate from Hopper HQ to SkedCast? Hopper HQ’s help center documents exporting analytics as PNG, SVG or CSV, but no export of the scheduled-post calendar itself. Cancellation is self-serve from the Billing section of your settings, and removing a social account deletes its scheduled, draft and historic posts. Record what is still queued before you disconnect anything.
What can you take with you from Hopper HQ?
Scheduled posts
No article documents exporting the scheduled calendar or queue, and none says it is unavailable. What is documented is an analytics export (PNG, SVG or CSV) and CSV bulk import (up to 350 posts per file, per social profile). Published posts are listed in the Planner’s History tab, and scheduled and draft posts in Planner and Calendar, with no download.
Disconnecting or cancelling
Removing a social account permanently removes it from Hopper HQ and deletes all data associated with it, including scheduled, draft and historic posts. Cancel from the Billing section of your settings (App Store and Google Play subscriptions are cancelled there); you keep full access to the end of the paid period. Once a subscription has expired, posts fail with a “No Valid Subscription” error. Deleting the account is by emailing support and loses all data and analytics.
How do you move from Hopper HQ to SkedCast?
- Record what is still queued in Hopper HQ. Hopper HQ documents no export of the scheduled-post calendar. List what is still queued from the Hopper HQ planner before you disconnect anything.
- Bulk-import the CSV into SkedCast. Upload the CSV to SkedCast’s bulk import. Every row is validated against the platform it targets, so a bad row is fixed in the import instead of failing at publish time.
- Reconnect each account. Connect each social account in SkedCast through its own official sign-in. Group accounts by client if you manage several.
- Export your analytics history if you want to keep it. Use Hopper HQ’s analytics export (PNG, SVG or CSV) before you cancel, since that history does not transfer.
- Cancel Hopper HQ once every post is confirmed live. Go to the Billing section of your settings to cancel (or cancel through the App Store or Google Play if you subscribed there). You keep access until the end of the paid period, after which posts fail with “No Valid Subscription”. Do not remove a social account in Hopper HQ before every post is confirmed live in SkedCast, since that deletes its scheduled posts.
