A: Absolutely. If you’re interested in the new bells and whistles of ClickFunnels 2.0, you can
have the best of both worlds. Many of our Classic users choose to
purchase a ClickFunnels 2.0 account to explore its new capabilities
while still running Classic for their existing funnels. There’s no conflict in using both platforms side by side – in fact, we’ve made it easy to do so.
ClickFunnels 2.0 is our modern, all-in-one platform that comes with 20+ integrated apps to supercharge your business. For example, 2.0 has a built-in CRM to manage your contacts and sales pipeline, advanced workflow automations to streamline your marketing, a real-time chat and MessageHub to centralize customer conversations, and so much more (email marketing, an online store builder, membership areas, etc. are all included). If those kinds of features are on your wish list, 2.0 might be a great addition for you. You can sign up for 2.0 and start using those new tools, all while your Classic account continues to operate as normal.
When you’re using both, your ClickFunnels Classic account remains fully functional – you can build and run funnels there just like always. And whenever you’re ready, we offer an option to link your Classic account with 2.0 for easier management. In fact, once you’ve migrated whatever funnels or data you want into 2.0, you have the choice to put your Classic account into “Maintenance Mode.” Maintenance Mode is a special setting for Classic accounts that are linked to a 2.0 account. In Maintenance Mode, all your existing Classic funnels stay live, active, and profitable – nothing breaks or goes down – but your Classic account will be essentially locked from creating new funnels or pages. You’d do any new funnel building in 2.0 going forward. This allows you to keep your old funnels running on Classic indefinitely without having to pay for two fully active subscriptions at once if you don’t need to. (To be clear, Maintenance Mode is optional – it’s just there to help if you’ve moved to 2.0 and don’t plan to build new funnels in Classic but still want your old funnels running.)
Many users find this dual setup very reassuring: you can try out 2.0’s new features at your own pace while your income-generating funnels on Classic remain untouched. Whether you choose to gradually migrate or keep running both platforms long-term, the choice is yours. Our job is to support you whichever path you take.
