Overview
BoomTown bundles a real estate CRM with lead generation, IDX websites, and predictive lead scoring in tiered packages starting around $1,000 per month. Pipedrive uses a per-seat model ($14-$99 per user per month) organized around Leads, People, Organizations, Deals, and Activities. The migration carries all standard CRM records, custom fields, and activity history from BoomTown into Pipedrive's object model. BoomTown's predictive lead scores migrate to a custom numeric field; its drip campaigns and automated lead routing require manual rebuild using Pipedrive's Automations and Sequences tools. BoomTown's built-in lead generation and MLS integrations do not have Pipedrive equivalents and must be replaced with third-party tools or rebuilt independently. FlitStack sequences the migration to resolve foreign-key dependencies, runs a field-level diff on a test slice, then executes the full migration with a 24-48 hour delta pickup window capturing any in-flight records during cutover. This structured approach ensures that parent-child relationships between Organizations, People, and Deals are preserved throughout the transfer, and that your team has a verified data set in Pipedrive before decommissioning BoomTown.
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 BoomTown object lands in Pipedrive, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
BoomTown
Lead
Pipedrive
Lead
1:1BoomTown leads map 1:1 to Pipedrive leads. All standard lead fields (name, email, phone, source, status) transfer directly. BoomTown lead status values require value mapping to Pipedrive's lead status pick-list — any BoomTown status not already in Pipedrive's default list will be created as a custom status value before migration runs. The email address field serves as the primary duplicate-detection key across both platforms.
BoomTown
Contact
Pipedrive
Person
1:1BoomTown contacts migrate to Pipedrive People. The Person object holds the contact's name, contact details, and primary organization link via org_id. BoomTown contact ownership resolves by email match to Pipedrive users — if no matching Pipedrive user exists, the record is flagged for manual owner assignment before the migration run proceeds. All phone variants (work, mobile, home) map to Pipedrive's phone and mobile fields.
BoomTown
Company
Pipedrive
Organization
1:1BoomTown companies map to Pipedrive Organizations. Company name, domain, industry, employee count, and revenue fields map directly. Multi-address companies collapse to the primary address in Pipedrive's single address field per org — if your team relies on shipping or branch addresses, those should be captured as custom fields before migration. Industry pick-list values undergo value mapping to align with Pipedrive's standardized industry taxonomy.
BoomTown
Deal
Pipedrive
Deal
1:1BoomTown deals migrate to Pipedrive deals with full stage, value, close date, and owner preserved. Pipeline name in BoomTown maps to Pipedrive's pipeline by name, creating the pipeline if it does not already exist. Stage probability weights must be reapplied in Pipedrive manually after migration since BoomTown stores probability at the deal level while Pipedrive stores it at the stage level — FlitStack provides a probability mapping table to guide this post-migration configuration.
BoomTown
Activity (Call/Email/Note/Meeting)
Pipedrive
Activity
1:1BoomTown call logs, emails, notes, and meetings migrate as Pipedrive Activities. Original timestamps and owners are preserved throughout the transfer. Activity type (call, email, meeting, task) maps to Pipedrive's activity type field. Note content migrates as activity notes with full text preserved. Linked deal and person associations are maintained via foreign-key resolution after the parent records exist in Pipedrive.
BoomTown
Predictive Lead Score
Pipedrive
Custom Field (numeric)
1:1BoomTown's behavioral lead score migrates to a custom numeric field (Lead_Score__c equivalent) on both Lead and Person objects. This custom field must be pre-created in Pipedrive before migration runs. The scoring algorithm itself is BoomTown-proprietary and cannot transfer — teams must rebuild scoring logic using Pipedrive's automation triggers to increment the score field based on activities like emails opened, forms submitted, or deal stage changes.
BoomTown
Drip Campaign Membership
Pipedrive
No Equivalent
1:1BoomTown drip campaigns and sequence membership do not have a direct Pipedrive equivalent. We preserve campaign name and enrollment date as custom fields on the Lead for reference and audit trail. However, the email cadence logic and enrollment triggers must be rebuilt from scratch in Pipedrive Sequences. FlitStack provides a drip campaign export document listing every campaign name, step sequence, and timing for your Pipedrive admin to use as a rebuild guide.
BoomTown
Automated Lead Routing Rule
Pipedrive
No Equivalent
1:1BoomTown's lead routing rules (auto-assign to agents by geography, source, or score threshold) do not have a Pipedrive equivalent and cannot be exported. These require manual rebuild in Pipedrive Automations using condition-based triggers and user assignment rules. FlitStack documents every active routing rule in BoomTown with its criteria logic so your team can recreate each rule step-by-step in Pipedrive's rule builder after migration completes.
BoomTown
Custom Property (Real Estate Field)
Pipedrive
Custom Field
1:1BoomTown custom fields for real estate (MLS number, listing status, property type, transaction ID, commission split) migrate as Pipedrive custom fields. Pipedrive requires these to be pre-created in the account before the migration runs — we deliver a custom-field creation plan specifying field name, type, and pick-list options. Teams should allocate 1-3 business days for Pipedrive admin to create these fields before scheduling the migration run.
BoomTown
Lead Source / Campaign Attribution
Pipedrive
Custom Field
1:1BoomTown tracks lead source (PPC, MLS, referral, etc.) at the lead level. Pipedrive's native 'lead_source_id' can hold a value but BoomTown's attribution model may be more granular — we map it to a custom field to preserve the full attribution string. This ensures that detailed source data like PPC campaign names, MLS listing IDs, and referral partner codes are retained in Pipedrive for reporting and analysis.
BoomTown
BoomTown User / Team Member
Pipedrive
Pipedrive User
1:1BoomTown users resolve to Pipedrive users by email match. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — teams either invite them to Pipedrive first or reassign records to a fallback user. Role and permission sets do not migrate since Pipedrive's permission model operates differently. Teams should review Pipedrive's visibility rules and admin settings post-migration to replicate appropriate access controls.
BoomTown
Attachment / File
Pipedrive
Activity Attachment / File
1:1BoomTown file attachments on leads, contacts, and deals migrate to Pipedrive activity attachments. Files re-upload to Pipedrive's file storage during migration. Size limits apply — files over Pipedrive's per-upload limit (typically 64MB) require chunking or alternative storage. Teams with large file libraries should budget time to verify attachment integrity post-migration and consider using cloud storage links for very large files.

Migration approach
Pre-migration audit and schema mapping
FlitStack AI inventories your BoomTown account: record counts by object, active custom fields and their types, pipeline and stage configurations, user roster, and active drip campaigns or routing rules. We deliver a migration plan document that maps BoomTown objects to Pipedrive objects, specifies which custom fields require pre-creation in Pipedrive, identifies BoomTown workflows that must be rebuilt manually, and provides an estimated timeline and price based on volume and complexity.
Prepare Pipedrive destination schema
Before data moves, your Pipedrive admin (or our team) creates the custom fields identified in the audit — real estate fields like MLS number, listing status, property type, and commission split. Pipedrive's custom field API (POST /dealFields, POST /personFields) is used to provision fields with correct types and pick-list options. Organizations are migrated first so that People records can reference them via org_id. BoomTown users are matched by email to Pipedrive users — unmatched owners are flagged for team assignment before the migration run.
Test migration with field-level diff
FlitStack runs a representative sample migration — typically 100-500 records covering leads, people, organizations, deals, and activities. A field-level diff report compares source values against destination values for every mapped field, flagging any truncation, format change, or missing data. You review the diff and approve adjustments to field mapping before the full migration commits. This step also validates that custom real estate fields are populating correctly in Pipedrive and that lead routing and drip campaign references are preserved as custom field values.
Full migration with delta pickup window
The full migration runs against your live Pipedrive account. BoomTown accounts, people, leads, deals, activities, and attachments transfer in dependency order (Organizations first, then People, then Deals with foreign key references resolved). A delta pickup window of 24-48 hours captures any records created or modified in BoomTown during the cutover. After the window closes, the FlitStack audit log records every operation. You can run a reconciliation report comparing record counts and spot-checking field values. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts all migrated records.
Post-migration reconciliation and rebuild handoff
FlitStack delivers a reconciliation report: record counts by object, association integrity (deals linked to correct people and orgs), activity timeline completeness, and custom field fill rates. You spot-check records in Pipedrive to verify data quality. We provide a BoomTown workflow export document listing every drip campaign and routing rule with Pipedrive equivalents as a rebuild reference. Your Pipedrive admin uses this to recreate automations. FlitStack remains available for a 30-day post-migration support window to address any data issues discovered after go-live.
