Migrate from Insightly | Online Help - Bigin by Zoho CRM

Import from Insightly

Migrate from Insightly to Bigin by simply entering the API key. The entire migration is carried out in the background and you will be notified once it is completed.

Some important points to note before you migrate from Insightly to Bigin,
  1. Bigin supports up to 10 custom fields/module in Express edition and up to 25 custom fields/module in Premier edition. The number of custom fields that can be migrated from Insightly depends on the custom fields that you have in Bigin. 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. 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. Bigin supports migration of up to 5 users in Express edition and up to 20 users in Premier edition. 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 example, if you already have 5 users created in Bigin, then the users from Insightly will be migrated but you cannot re-invite them as the user limit is already reached for Express edition.
  5. Bigin supports 25 sub-pipelines from Insightly during the migration provided the edition specific sub-pipeline limit in that account is not exceeded.
  6. Bigin supports 250 stages from Insightly during the migration provided the edition specific stages limit in that account is not exceeded.
  7. After the migration if the total record count exceeds the 1 lakh limit in Premier edition and 50K limit in Express edition, then they can purchase an additional records as add-on to increase the limit. Additional records can be purchased until the account reaches 1 million records.
