You don't need to use Legacy for anything else, but to import you people into Clooz, but it's fast and painless, since Legacy has a built in feature for choosing "Export to Clooz". Since my genealogy software doesn't export marriage dates, I've used Legacy myself to get my info into Clooz. All I had to do was import my gedcom into Legacy, then export out to Clooz.
