Benefits You Get with Our Expert CRM Migration Services
What is CRM Migration? CRM migration moves data to a new system for better performance and lower maintenance costs.The aim of CRM application migration is to move data safely while preserving its integrity. Migrating your CRM brings greater scalability and cost-efficiency. The target CRM system may offer advanced features, third-party app integration, and cloud storage options.
Clean, Accessible Data
CRM system migration to a modern platform improves data quality through cleansing, structure, integrations, and real-time access. This supports informed decisions and strategic planning.
Better Functionality
New CRM software includes AI-powered analytics and automation capabilities for data-driven decisions and personalized customer interactions. They also promote cross-departmental collaboration by providing a unified view of customer data, which streamlines customer management processes.
Quicker ROI
Modern CRM systems come with advanced analytics and reporting capabilities, converting raw data into actionable insights. These insights inform strategy and optimize operations, leading to substantial returns. A suitable CRM with automation of data-driven processes improves efficiency and enables team focus on strategic tasks and customer engagement for quicker ROI.
Money Saving
Migrating to a new CRM platform offers various opportunities for saving costs. Modern CRM platforms provide flexible pricing models, reducing upfront expenses compared to traditional systems. With CRM cloud migration, businesses can further save on maintenance and updates, as these responsibilities are handled by the service provider.
Increased Productivity
CRM data migration improves productivity by eliminating inefficiencies and providing immediate access to critical information. Modern CRM platforms automate routine tasks and offer real-time data access, enabling employees to focus on strategic work and make faster decisions. Additionally, user-friendly interfaces reduce training time and enhance system usability.
Improved Data Security
Modern CRM platforms incorporate robust security features, such as data encryption, two-factor authentication, and intrusion detection systems. These ensure powerful protection against unauthorized access and cyber threats. Compliance with data protection regulations, like GDPR and CCPA, guarantees legal handling of customer data. Cloud-based CRMs benefit from cloud provider's security measures, including regular audits, data redundancy, and disaster recovery capabilities.

Migrate CRM to Azure
Consider transitioning your CRM to Azure to streamline your business operations and prepare your infrastructure for data volume growth. To fully harness the power of Azure and migrate your CRM seamlessly, we assess your current environment and align the migration strategy with your objectives. Firstly, our team may opt for transitioning to Azure IaaS (rehosting with no code changes) to reduce datacenter dependencies quickly. The next iteration is typically PaaS Azure migration with database restructuring and application redesigning, which guarantees maximum optimization for the cloud. During migration, we care about ensuring uninterrupted service for users globally, so we swiftly move your on-premise SQL server to an Azure VM-based setup, completing data transfers in just 48 hours. Once in the cloud, we protect your data with SQL backup, restore procedures, and Azure Site Recovery, ensuring your CRM's resilience and security. As most CRMs manage data-intensive tasks, using Azure ExpressRoute helps us effectively handle large volumes of data.
Migrate CRM to AWS
When moving your CRM to AWS, we aim to lift the limits of non-scalable physical servers and database replication issues to ensure the necessary scalability, performance, and data security. For that, we design a new infrastructure for your CRM within AWS selecting the right combination of AWS services like the RDS Aurora database, S3 file storage, SQS queuing system, etc. To provide rapid scaling capability for potential geographic expansion, we deploy new virtual servers and fine-tune AWS service configurations. To elevate CRM performance, we may update system versions and services as part of the migration, such as transitioning from .NET to .NET Core and AngularJS to Angular. During AWS migration, we also meticulously separate tasks into specific server groups, like user requests or background tasks, to minimize disruptions and optimize operations. Lastly, by standardizing the application environment within the AWS framework, we aim to cut down maintenance expenses and guarantee swift issue detection and resolution.
We migrate your on-premises CRM to Azure or AWS by your choice, streamlining your expenses with a unified infrastructure and the ability to scale operations in mere minutes or hours

When considering CRM migration, you have several options to choose from based on your team's capabilities and preferences:
