🔥Fireside chat: Run CRM Migrations Without Technical Resources
Hard migrations, simple tools: run client CRM migrations without a developer
Lucy has run the migrations most teams turn down, including a 53-million-record Salesforce merger cut over to production in a single weekend. In this on-demand fireside chat, Scot asks her what partners underestimate, which cleanup jobs come back on every project, and what takes a few clicks in the MigrateMyCRM wizard instead of days in spreadsheets.
Checkmarks:
What partners underestimate: source settings, validation rules, and the duplicates clients keep on purpose.
Days of CSV work, done in the UI: field mapping in about an hour, bulk custom properties, filtering data by brand.
Straight answers: when a CSV import is enough, and when to bring in someone else.

Scot Trumeter. VP of Sales and Partners.

- The most chaotic migration: two Salesforce orgs, 200+ objects, QA → UAT → production, and one weekend to go live.
- What partners underestimate: source and target settings, and duplicates clients keep on purpose.
- The cleanup requests that come up every time: checkboxes to multiselect, merged text fields, split objects, reassigned ownership.
- Spreadsheet vs. wizard: mapping, bulk custom properties, and filtering data by brand.
- Honest comparison: when a CSV import is enough, where other tools break, and what we don’t do.
- Getting your team self-sufficient: the four things to learn and what support looks like.
- Lightning round: biggest record count, weirdest legacy CRM, and the field nobody maps.
A full client migration in five steps
We work alongside your team from the first call to post-launch support. Here’s how a typical client migration runs.
Connect
A kickoff call to align on the source CRM, the target portal and the scope, including the source settings that can change it.
Run a free sample
We migrate a sample of the client’s real data, so everyone sees results in HubSpot before committing.
Review results
You check the sample with your client. We price the full project based on objects, records and transformations.
Fine-tune the mapping
Adjust fields, filters, matching rules and record owners in the wizard. Changes take minutes, not exports.
Run the full migration
We migrate object by object, monitor every record, and stay on Slack after launch to resolve anything that comes up.
Turn data migration from a project risk into a reason clients signs
What you'll learn.
Catch surprises before you quote.
Why validation rules, triggers and intentional duplicates change scope, and how to check source and target before the project starts.
Skip the mapping spreadsheet.
The work partners spend days on in CSV that takes about an hour in the wizard: field mapping, bulk custom properties, filtering by brand.

FAQ
How long until my team can run migrations on its own?
What if I have questions after watching?
Book a call or message us in chat. Partners also get a shared Slack channel with our migration team.
Do I need to be a SyncMatters partner already?
No. It’s made for HubSpot partners, RevOps teams and consultants, whether or not you work with us yet.
Is it only about HubSpot?
No. The main story is a Salesforce-to-Salesforce merger, and MigrateMyCRM moves data between 50+ CRMs.
Do you support adjustments based on scope and support needs?
Yes, we understand that some integrations may require more time to scope and set up, need additional support, or have higher daily run times or data processing needs. We believe it's reasonable to adjust the customer's setup or monthly support charges accordingly.
What happens if I need more resources than the included allowance?
If you need more resources than what the included allowance covers, SyncMatters allows you to pay for the overage at always low rates, ensuring you can scale your integrations as needed without excessive costs.
Can we migrate only part of a client’s data, like one brand after an acquisition?
Yes. Filters in the wizard let you migrate only the records tied to a specific brand, product or segment, along with everything related to them. Setup takes anywhere from 10 minutes to a few hours, compared with days of filtering CSVs object by object.
Do we need to prepare a mapping spreadsheet before the kickoff call?
No. Many partners arrive with a spreadsheet listing every source field and where it should go, which is hours of work. In the wizard’s mapping UI, the same job usually takes an hour to an hour and a half, and the wizard suggests a starting mapping based on our best practices.
