For example, if you already have six custom fields created in Bigin, only 4 custom fields can be migrated from Insightly for Express edition.
  2. If a custom field is already created with the same name and type as that of the field in Insightly then data will be migrated seamlessly to that field in Bigin. Otherwise, a new custom field will be created in Bigin during the migration.
  3. Up to 10 tags/module can be imported during the migration for an Express edition and up to 30 tags/module for a Premier edition and up to 50 tags/module for Bigin 360. The number of tags that can be migrated from Insightly depends on the tags that you have in Bigin. For example, if you already have five tags in Bigin, only 5 tags can be migrated from Insightly for Express edition.
  4. Once migration is completed, the users can be found under Invited users tab in Bigin and have to be re-invited to join the Bigin account. For re-invite user add-on limit will be added.   After the migration is complete, users will appear under the Invited Users tab in Bigin. They will need to be re-invited to join the Bigin account, and the user add-on limit will be applied during re-invitation.

    1. Express: 15 sub-pipelines + 3 default sub-pipelines 
    2. Premier: 25 sub-pipelines + 5 default sub-pipelines 
    3. Bigin 360: 75 sub-pipelines + 15 default sub-pipelines
  6. Bigin supports 250 stages from Insightly during the migration provided the edition specific stages limit in that account is not exceeded. 
  7.
