Migrate from Black Ice CRM to HubSpot

Black Ice Lead maps directly to HubSpot Contact. Email, phone, name, address, and custom lead properties all migrate as HubSpot contact properties. If Black Ice tracks a separate lead-status field, it maps to HubSpot's lifecyclestage or a custom pick-list property.

Black Ice Account maps to HubSpot Company 1:1. Company name, domain, industry, employee count, and annual revenue migrate as standard HubSpot company properties. Black Ice's parent-account hierarchy is preserved using HubSpot's parent-company association. Additional custom fields on the Account (e.g., billing address, region, or tier classification) are migrated as HubSpot custom properties, and any linked Contact roles are recorded in the association notes.

Black Ice Potential — the sales opportunity object — maps to HubSpot Deal. Potential fields including name, amount, stage, and close date map to the equivalent HubSpot Deal properties. Black Ice stage names are mapped value-by-value to HubSpot pipeline stages.

HubSpot has no native Quote equivalent in its standard CRM — a custom object is created. Quote number, date, line items, total amount, and status migrate as custom properties on the Quote custom object. The Quote is associated to the HubSpot Deal via a custom association.

Black Ice Orders are standalone objects; HubSpot has no native order management. A custom object is created with order number, date, linked Deal, line items, and amount as custom properties. Orders are associated to the corresponding Company and Deal. If Black Ice records order status (e.g., pending, fulfilled, cancelled) these values are stored as a custom pick‑list property on the HubSpot Order custom object, and any related notes or attachments are linked via the association.

Black Ice Invoice objects require a HubSpot custom object to preserve invoice number, date, amount, status, and linked Order/Deal associations. Without a native billing object in HubSpot CRM, this data lives in a custom object linked to the Company record.

Black Ice Product records map to HubSpot Products with name, SKU, price, and description. Custom product properties migrate as HubSpot product properties. Stock quantity and reorder level migrate as custom number properties since HubSpot has no native inventory field. If the Black Ice product includes a cost price or vendor reference, those fields can be added as additional custom properties on the HubSpot Product record for reporting and margin analysis.

Black Ice order-to-product line items map to HubSpot Line Items, which sit between Deals and Products. Quantity and unit price migrate as HubSpot Line Item properties, linked to the HubSpot Deal and Product records. If Black Ice records a discount percentage or tax amount on the line item, those values can be stored as additional custom number properties on the HubSpot Line Item to preserve pricing nuance.

Black Ice activity records (calls, emails, meetings) attached to Leads, Accounts, or Potentials migrate as HubSpot engagement records. Original timestamps, owners, and subject/body content are preserved on the associated HubSpot Contact or Company record. If the activity includes a custom outcome field (e.g., demo scheduled, proposal sent), that value is migrated as a custom property on the engagement record, allowing your team to filter and report on specific activity outcomes in HubSpot.

Black Ice notes migrate as HubSpot notes on the associated Contact or Company record. Rich-text formatting is preserved where Black Ice supports it. Notes with no associated record are attached to the most recently modified linked object. If a note contains inline images, the images are extracted, re‑uploaded to HubSpot Files, and re‑inserted into the note body to maintain visual context.

Black Ice file attachments on any record are downloaded, re-uploaded to HubSpot Files, and re-attached to the target HubSpot record. File size limits and inline-image handling follow HubSpot's file upload constraints. Files exceeding HubSpot's 25 MB limit are flagged before migration, and large inline images are compressed or split as needed to comply with storage guidelines.

Any Black Ice field that is not a standard field on Lead, Account, Potential, Quote, Order, or Invoice migrates as a HubSpot custom property. We create the custom property in HubSpot using the correct data type (text, number, date, picklist, checkbox) and preserve the original pick-list values for pick-list fields.
