Overview
APTANIA CRM stores contacts, companies, deals, activities, and custom fields in a simpler flat schema. HubSpot uses its own object graph with lifecycle stages as a contact-level property and deal pipelines with configurable stage values. We map APTANIA contacts directly to HubSpot contacts, APTANIA companies to HubSpot companies, and APTANIA deals to HubSpot deals with pipeline and stage mapping handled pre-migration. APTANIA lifecycle stages (or equivalent custom fields) have no native HubSpot equivalent — we preserve them as HubSpot custom properties. Workflows, automations, email templates, and reporting logic do not migrate and must be rebuilt in HubSpot's workflow builder; we export APTANIA workflow definitions as a rebuild reference. The migration runs via API with batched loads, field-level validation against HubSpot's rate limits (5 req/sec) and search cap (10,000 results per query), and a delta-pickup window at cutover to capture in-flight changes. After each batch, we run field-level checks to detect property‑type mismatches and enforce HubSpot naming conventions, preventing records from being rejected by the API.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a APTANIA CRM object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
APTANIA CRM
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1APTANIA contacts migrate as HubSpot contacts with all standard properties (name, email, phone, job title) mapped directly. APTANIA contact records without a primary company association land as HubSpot contacts with no associated company — flagged for post-migration review. We also validate email format consistency and verify that no duplicate contacts exist in the APTANIA export before loading.
APTANIA CRM
Company
HubSpot
Company
1:1APTANIA company records map to HubSpot companies with domain, industry, employee count, and annual revenue fields carried over. APTANIA company hierarchies (parent-child) translate to HubSpot's parent company association — parent record must migrate before child. We verify that each parent company's HubSpot ID is recorded before loading child records, preventing orphaned associations.
APTANIA CRM
Deal
HubSpot
Deal
1:1APTANIA deals become HubSpot deals. HubSpot deal pipelines and their associated stage values must be created in HubSpot before migration runs so deal records land with correct stage assignments and pipeline associations. We also confirm that deal amounts are stored as numeric values and that any currency codes align with HubSpot's supported list to avoid validation errors.
APTANIA CRM
Activity (calls, emails, meetings)
HubSpot
Engagements (calls, emails, meetings)
1:1APTANIA engagement records — call logs, email activities, and meeting records — migrate as HubSpot engagements (Calls, Emails, Meetings). Original timestamps and owner assignments are preserved. Associations to contacts and companies are re-established by email or name match. We also verify that each engagement's direction (inbound/outbound) is captured in a custom property when the source APTANIA field stores this detail.
APTANIA CRM
Note
HubSpot
Note
1:1APTANIA notes become HubSpot notes on the associated contact or company record. Note body text transfers directly; rich-text formatting is converted to HubSpot's note format. Notes without a parent record are attached to the closest matched contact. We also preserve note creation timestamps and ensure that any @mention or linking references are updated to reflect the new HubSpot IDs.
APTANIA CRM
Lifecycle stage (APTANIA custom field or equivalent)
HubSpot
Custom property on Contact
1:1HubSpot has no native lifecycle stage field. APTANIA lifecycle or lead-status values migrate as a HubSpot custom property (text or pick-list depending on source type). Pre-migration planning identifies which values exist in APTANIA so the HubSpot property is created with the correct pick-list options.
APTANIA CRM
APTANIA custom fields
HubSpot
HubSpot custom properties
1:1Any APTANIA custom fields not matching HubSpot's standard property names become HubSpot custom properties. The internal property name in HubSpot follows HubSpot's naming rules (no spaces, special characters). We map field types — number, date, checkbox — to the equivalent HubSpot property types.
APTANIA CRM
Attachment / file
HubSpot
HubSpot Files
1:1APTANIA file attachments are downloaded and re-uploaded to HubSpot Files, then associated with the relevant contact, company, or deal record. File size limits from the HubSpot API apply — large files are flagged and handled in consultation with your team before migration.
APTANIA CRM
Owner / user
HubSpot
HubSpot user
1:1APTANIA owner assignments resolve by email match against HubSpot users. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — your team either creates the HubSpot user account first or assigns those records to a designated fallback owner during migration. We also log the unmatched owner email addresses so your admin can batch‑create users in HubSpot before the final load phase.
APTANIA CRM
Workflows / automations
HubSpot
HubSpot workflow builder
1:1APTANIA workflows and automations do not have a migration path to HubSpot — the logic, triggers, and conditions cannot be exported in a format that HubSpot imports. We export APTANIA workflow definitions as a structured reference document your HubSpot admin uses to rebuild automations in HubSpot's workflow builder.

Migration approach
Audit APTANIA data model and pre-create HubSpot pipelines
We extract the full APTANIA object schema — contacts, companies, deals, activities, and custom fields — via API. We identify which custom fields need HubSpot custom property creation, which APTANIA lifecycle or status fields require pick-list options set in advance, and which deal pipelines need to be pre-created in HubSpot. We deliver a HubSpot setup checklist before any data moves, so your HubSpot account is schema-ready before the migration run starts.
Resolve APTANIA owners by email against HubSpot users
APTANIA owner assignments are matched by email to HubSpot user accounts. Unresolved owners are flagged with the full list of affected records. Your team either creates HubSpot user accounts for new team members or assigns a fallback HubSpot owner before migration. No data loads until owner resolution is confirmed — this prevents records landing with blank owner fields in HubSpot.
Migrate in dependency order: companies → contacts → deals → activities
HubSpot requires companies before contacts (via association) and contacts before deals (via deal associations). We run the migration in the correct load order: companies first, then contacts with company links resolved, then deals with stage and pipeline mapping applied, then engagement activities attached to their parent records. Each batch is validated against HubSpot's schema before the next batch starts. During validation we also confirm that HubSpot's required‑field constraints are met and that property types align with the source data, preventing downstream API errors.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff before full commit
We migrate a representative sample — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities — and produce a field-level comparison report. You verify that lifecycle stage values, deal stage assignments, owner resolution, and custom property data are correct before the full run commits. Sample migration findings are incorporated into the final mapping plan. The sample also checks that custom property options match the APTANIA values and that any pick‑list fields are correctly set.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window and rollback plan
The full migration runs against HubSpot with audit logging on every record operation. A delta-pickup window — typically 24–48 hours — captures any APTANIA records created or modified during the cutover window. If reconciliation reveals mapping errors, the one-click rollback reverts HubSpot to the pre-migration state. We deliver a final reconciliation report showing record counts, association health, and any records that require post-migration admin review.
