DIY Basic Tall Emu Migration
A basic migration can be done easily by yourself using the import tools available from HubSpot, BUT... if you are also wanting to associate contacts, deals and companies to their activities (with correct dates) and upload bulk files you will need to create custom import program to process these.
The Tall Emu CRM contains identifiers which link all these records together - these need to be extracted and processed accordingly.
For example we can import an opportunity from Tall Emu and associate it with the appropriate company and contact in HubSpot. Any tasks, calls notes etc. would be imported into the relevant timelines and associated to the owners in HubSpot. This means your sales team can swap over and still view all their historical data and get alerts for any tasks or activities they need to action to push the deal forward.
We have created a custom import program which picks these data points up and links everything up correctly in HubSpot so your team can hit the ground running.
Data Extraction:
Getting the associated data out of Tall Emu CRM can be a time consuming process. There are a lot of SQL tables which store different pieces of data. SQL queries need to be written and exported often in batches, depending on the Excel version available on the SQL server as older versions max out at 65,000 rows.
Tall Emu Files: These are stored in a separate folder on the server. The file name will have been converted to an identifier. When these are being processed the files need to be renamed and securely uploaded to HubSpot and then associated to the correct objects.
