Hi,
Thanks for the interest in our plugin.
I can answer your questions.
We have a setting in the backend where you can make the List View the Default View.
You can see that in Free Version:
The Events Calendar
We do not have a Event Manager importer, but you could try exporting the events as a csv and then importing them that way. This will work for single events, but not for recurring events.
Let me know if you have any follow up questions.
Thanks
