HubSpot to Migaru, step by step
The same four steps as a move from any CRM, in HubSpot's own words.
- 1
Export your records from HubSpot
One file per object
Export contacts, companies and deals from HubSpot as CSV files, one per object, and include all properties rather than only the columns in view. Nothing connects to HubSpot, so nothing there changes while you move.
- 2
Set up your stages and fields
Once, before importing
Name your deal stages exactly as HubSpot names them, and add a field for each custom property you want to keep. The importer maps onto fields that already exist, and a stage only comes across if Migaru has one spelled exactly the same way.
- 3
Import each file
A minute or two a file
Import companies as accounts, contacts as contacts and deals as deals, up to 50,000 rows a file. Columns named like one of your fields map themselves, and where it can, Migaru suggests a field for the rest for you to check. A multi-select property reads the way HubSpot writes it, with semicolons between its values. Every import is logged and can be undone.
- 4
Connect your mailbox and calendar
A couple of minutes a person
Each person connects Gmail or Outlook along with its calendar, and Migaru reads back up to two years. Conversations land on the records you imported: contacts are matched on email address and accounts on the domain of their website, so https://www.acme.com and acme.com are the same account. Anything that still looks like a duplicate is flagged for you to merge.
After the move, if you want
Add your call transcripts
Drop in the transcripts your recorder exports, several at a time. Migaru files each one on the meeting it belongs to, making one when your calendar never had it, or on the account or contact when it can't be sure, and lists any it can't place for you to attach. It reads each one for commitments, unless the person who uploaded it keeps only who and when.
Rebuild the automations you still need
Describe each rule in a sentence: what triggers it, the conditions, and what to do, such as set a field, create a task or notify someone. Migaru reads the rule back to you before it is created. Workflows come with Pro and above.
What comes across from HubSpot
Every record you export, and a plain answer for everything that doesn't import.
| In HubSpot | In Migaru |
|---|---|
| Companies | Accounts. One already in Migaru with the same website is filled in rather than copied. |
| Contacts | Contacts. A company column links each to its company's account, made if there isn't one, and a contact already here with the same email address is filled in rather than copied. |
| Deals | Deals, each at the stage with the same name. Nothing identifies a deal, so import the file once, or undo the first run before a second. |
| Email and meeting history | Read again from each person's mailbox and calendar, up to two years back. |
| Associations | A contact's company comes across, as the link to its account. Other associations, such as a deal's company, don't. |
| Meeting Notetaker recordings | Not imported. Drop in any transcript you can save as a file, and Migaru files it on its meeting. |
| Workflows and sequences | Rebuilt on Pro and above: describe each workflow in a sentence, and each sequence drafts its steps for you to send. |
| Marketing, service and website tools | Not in Migaru, which is a CRM for selling. Keep them in HubSpot, or move them to another tool. |
What you gain by leaving HubSpot
One price for the whole team
HubSpot charges for each seat. On Pro and Growth, Migaru is one price for the workspace, so adding a seller adds no seat: Pro is $399 per month for the workspace, for up to 5 users.
No onboarding fee
HubSpot charges $1,500 to onboard Sales Hub Professional. Starter and Pro start from a card, and the move is four steps you can take yourself.
The follow-through on every plan
A brief before each external meeting, promises turned into tasks and follow-ups drafted when they come due are on every Migaru plan, from Starter.
Every email waits for you
Where HubSpot's sequences send on a schedule, Migaru drafts each step and follow-up into your own mailbox, and nothing reaches a customer until someone sends it.
Still weighing it up?
The comparison sets Migaru beside HubSpot on price, recording, sending and more, and says plainly where HubSpot is the better choice.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to switch from HubSpot?
Four steps. Each import runs as soon as its columns are mapped, taking a minute or two for a file of tens of thousands of rows, and each person connects their mailbox and calendar in a couple of minutes. Reading two years of email and meetings carries on in the background, a batch every fifteen minutes, while you work.
Do HubSpot's multi-select properties come across?
Yes. A multi-select column is read the way HubSpot writes it, with semicolons between the values, and each value is matched to the Migaru field's option of the same name. Create the field and its options before you import.
Do HubSpot's associations come across?
One does: a contact's company, which links the contact to that company's account, and makes the account if there isn't one. Other associations, such as the company on a deal, don't come across, so link those in Migaru after the import.
Can we keep using HubSpot while we move?
Yes. Migaru never connects to HubSpot, so nothing there changes while your team moves across. There's no sync between the two either, so pick a day to stop entering data in HubSpot.
Does our email history come across from HubSpot?
Not from HubSpot: Migaru reads it from the source instead. When each person connects Gmail or Outlook, up to two years of email and meetings are read back and filed on the records you imported.
