Overview

What this migration involves

Boostr and Monday.com CRM operate on fundamentally different data models. Boostr is a media-specific CRM built around the ad sales lifecycle — Advertisers, Campaigns, Proposals, Orders, and Ad Inventory Units — with no publicly documented bulk export API. Monday.com CRM uses a Work OS foundation where CRM records live as Items on Boards with typed Columns. The migration requires a coordinated manual export from Boostr (not an API pull), a schema translation from Boostr's media objects to Monday.com's board-and-item structure, and a flattening strategy for ad inventory line items that Boostr captures as structured rows. We do not migrate Boostr's GAM integration OAuth connections or its workflow automations; we deliver a written inventory of both for your team to rebuild in Monday.com. Pricing for Monday.com CRM starts at $9 per seat per month with a three-seat minimum, and automations are only available from Standard tier ($12/seat) — a tier gap that teams migrating from Boostr's 50+ pre-built workflows must account for during planning.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Boostr

What's pushing teams away

  • Manual activity tracking is required — Boostr does not automatically log sales engagement actions, forcing reps to enter data by hand.
  • Gmail integration covers only basic activity logging with no sequence or outreach automation, frustrating reps used to embedded sales engagement tools.
  • Teams report that inventory management workflows break down when dealing with multi-channel or custom ad unit configurations.
  • The platform's narrow media focus means it cannot function as a general-purpose CRM for non-advertising business units within the same company.
  • Integration with GAM works for straightforward flows but becomes unreliable when edits need to be pushed back to the ad server after initial sync.

Choosing

What's pulling them in

  • Users praise the board-based visual interface for making pipeline stages immediately legible to non-technical team members without CRM training.
  • The no-code automation builder lets sales ops teams create lead routing, stage updates, and email triggers without developer involvement.
  • Integration ecosystem connects to Slack, Gmail, Outlook, and Zapier with minimal configuration, reducing friction for teams already using these tools.
  • The flexible column system lets teams build custom CRM views — deal value, close date, lead source — without needing a developer or pre-defined schema.
  • Teams already using monday Work Management can layer CRM features onto existing boards rather than starting from scratch.

Object mapping

How Boostr objects map to monday CRM

Each row shows how a Boostr object lands in monday CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

Boostr

Advertiser

maps to

monday CRM

Company (Contacts Board Column)

1:1
Fully supported

Boostr Advertisers — the buyer accounts in the media data model — map to Monday.com CRM Companies. The Advertiser name, website, address, and custom properties migrate as typed Columns on the Companies board. We use the Advertiser domain as a dedupe key during import. Boostr Advertiser-level revenue records map to a Currency or Number Column on the Company item. Custom fields on Advertiser (industry, advertiser type, agency relationship) map to Monday.com Column types (Dropdown, Text, Number) determined during scoping.

Boostr

Campaign

maps to

monday CRM

Board or Group within Board

lossy
Fully supported

Boostr Campaigns group multiple Proposals and Orders under a single media campaign umbrella. We map Campaigns to Monday.com Boards or, for simpler setups, to Groups within a Deals Board. Campaign-level metadata (campaign name, start date, end date, budget) migrates as Columns on the Board or Group header. The Campaign-to-Proposal relationship is preserved by linking the Proposal Items to the Campaign Board via a Link to Item Column.

Boostr

Proposal

maps to

monday CRM

Item (Deal Stage = Draft/Pending)

1:1
Fully supported

Boostr Proposals — distinct from Orders in Boostr's data model — represent draft offers sent to an advertiser before a booking is confirmed. We map all Proposal records as Monday.com CRM Items on the Deals Board with a Status Column set to a Draft or Pending stage. Proposal line items (placement, format, CPM, impressions, unit count) flatten into separate Columns or into a linked Items Board if the team needs per-line-item detail beyond what a flat Column set supports. Proposal-to-Order lineage is preserved by adding an Order ID Reference Column on the Proposal Item.

Boostr

Order

maps to

monday CRM

Item (Deal Stage = Closed Won)

1:1
Fully supported

Boostr Orders are the booked, confirmed commercial agreements — the core transactional record in Boostr's OMS. We map Orders to Monday.com CRM Items on the Deals Board with a Status Column set to Closed Won. Order-level fields (order ID, booking date, billing status, total order value) migrate as Columns. The Order's linked Advertiser maps to the Company item via a Connect Boards Column, and the linked Campaign maps via a Link to Item Column.

Boostr

Ad Inventory Unit

maps to

monday CRM

Custom Columns or Linked Items Board

lossy
Fully supported

Boostr captures Ad Inventory as structured line items per Order — placement, format, dates, impressions, CPM, and unit count. Monday.com has no native line-item or product-schedule object. We extract each line item as a set of Columns (Placement Name, Format, Start Date, End Date, Impressions, CPM, Total Cost) on the Order Item, or — for complex multi-unit Orders — as linked Items on a separate Ad Inventory Board connected via a Link to Item Column. The flattening strategy is agreed with the customer during scoping based on their reporting needs.

Boostr

Revenue Record

maps to

monday CRM

Currency Column (Deal Item)

1:1
Fully supported

Boostr tracks revenue at the Order and line-item level with revenue types and billing status. Order-level revenue migrates to a Currency Column on the corresponding Monday.com CRM Item (Deal). Line-item revenue (impressions times CPM) is calculated during transformation and stored as a Number Column. Billing status (invoiced, paid, outstanding) maps to a Status or Dropdown Column on the Item.

Boostr

Pipeline Stage

maps to

monday CRM

Status Column Values

lossy
Fully supported

Boostr's configurable pipeline stages (Prospect, Proposal, Negotiating, Booked, etc.) map to Monday.com CRM Status Column values on the Deals Board. We replicate the customer's Boostr stage labels and stage order during configuration. Boostr's Proposal-Order distinction maps across two distinct Status values (e.g., Proposal Sent, Closed Won) rather than collapsing both into a single stage.

Boostr

User / Owner

maps to

monday CRM

Person Column or Board Owner

1:1
Fully supported

Boostr User records (names, roles, team assignments) map to Monday.com CRM Person Columns on Items and to Board Owner assignments. We resolve users by email match against the Monday.com workspace. Any Boostr User without a matching Monday.com account goes to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes.

Boostr

Custom Properties

maps to

monday CRM

Custom Columns

lossy
Mapping required

Boostr supports custom fields on Advertisers, Campaigns, Orders, and other objects. We discover the full custom field schema during scoping, then map each custom field to the closest Monday.com Column type (Text, Number, Date, Dropdown, Checkbox, Location, Link). Custom field data migrates directly into the corresponding Column values. Boostr multi-select fields map to Monday.com Tags or Dropdown Columns depending on the customer's preferred display format.

Pair-specific challenges

  • No public Boostr API requires coordinated manual export

    Boostr does not publicly document a REST API or bulk export endpoint. All data must be extracted via manual CSV pulls from the Boostr UI or with direct assistance from Boostr support. We scope a dedicated extraction session with the customer's Boostr admin, agree on the export format and field set upfront, and validate completeness before transformation begins. Missing or truncated exports are the most common cause of migration delays for this pair. Unlike API-driven migrations, there is no automated re-run capability — the export must be complete and correct before we begin transformation.

  • Proposal and Order are separate Boostr objects — not Deals

    Boostr separates a Proposal (draft offer) from an Order (confirmed booking) as two distinct objects with different statuses. Monday.com CRM collapses both into Items on a Deals Board, which means the Proposal-Order lifecycle distinction must be reconstructed using a Status Column. We map Proposals to Items with a 'Proposal' Status value and Orders to Items with a 'Closed Won' Status value, preserving the full lifecycle sequence. We flag this distinction during the mapping review so the customer understands how the funnel will appear post-migration.

  • Monday.com automations require Standard tier or above

    Monday.com's Basic plan ($9/seat/month) includes zero automations. Teams relying on Boostr's 50+ pre-built sales and ad ops workflows will find that recreating those workflows requires upgrading to Standard ($12/seat/month, 250 automations/month) or Pro ($19/seat/month, 25,000 automations/month). We document every active Boostr workflow during scoping and deliver a written automation inventory with recommended Monday.com automation equivalents. Rebuilding those automations is outside standard migration scope and requires the customer's admin to configure in the destination platform post-migration.

  • Ad inventory line items require custom Column flattening

    Boostr captures ad inventory as structured rows per Order — placement, format, date range, impressions, CPM, and unit count. Monday.com has no native line-item or product-schedule object; each Order is a single Item. We extract each inventory row as a set of Columns on the Order Item, or as linked Items on a separate Ad Inventory Board. The flattening strategy is agreed during scoping, and the mapping spec documents which approach applies to each Order type. Teams with thousands of line items per Order should budget additional time for Column configuration and potential sub-board structuring.

  • Boostr GAM and connected app OAuth tokens cannot migrate

    Customers who rely on Boostr's Google Ad Manager push integration will need to re-establish that OAuth connection in their destination ad ops stack after migration. Boostr integrations are platform-specific OAuth connections that cannot be replicated in Monday.com. We document the active integrations during discovery and include a reconnection checklist in the post-migration handoff. This is not a data migration issue but a configuration step the customer's ad ops team must plan for, particularly if the GAM connection is part of an automated order-to-insertion-order workflow.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Boostr to monday CRM data migration

  1. Discovery and export scoping

    We audit the source Boostr account with the customer's Boostr admin, mapping Advertisers, Campaigns, Proposals, Orders, and Ad Inventory Units to their respective record counts. We identify all custom fields on each object, confirm the current pipeline stage configuration, and document active GAM and connected app integrations. Because Boostr has no API, we schedule a dedicated export coordination session where we define the CSV schema, agreed field set, and export format with the Boostr admin before any data leaves the source platform.

  2. Schema design and Monday.com board configuration

    We design the destination schema in Monday.com CRM before any data is imported. This includes creating the Companies board (with Columns for Advertiser fields), the Deals board (with a Status Column mapping Boostr's Proposal-Order stages to Monday.com Status values), and an optional Ad Inventory linked board for complex multi-unit Orders. Custom fields from Boostr map to typed Monday.com Columns (Text, Number, Date, Dropdown, Currency). We configure the Board and Column structure in a staging workspace first, validate with the customer, then apply to the production workspace.

  3. Manual export and CSV preparation

    The customer and their Boostr admin execute the agreed CSV export from Boostr's UI. We receive the exported files, validate completeness against the discovery record counts, and flag any missing fields or truncated rows before transformation begins. This step is the most critical for this pair — unlike API-driven migrations, there is no automated re-run. We run a field-level reconciliation pass to confirm Advertiser names, Order values, and Proposal-Order relationships are all present and correctly formatted in the CSV.

  4. Transformation and Monday.com API ingestion

    We transform the Boostr CSV data into Monday.com API payloads. Advertisers ingest as Company items; Campaigns configure as Boards or Groups; Proposals ingest as Deal Items with a 'Proposal' Status; Orders ingest as Deal Items with a 'Closed Won' Status and Order-level revenue in a Currency Column. We resolve the Advertiser-to-Company and Campaign-to-Board lookups at ingest time using the Monday.com API's Link to Item and Connect Boards Column types. Ad inventory line items flatten to Columns on each Order Item or, for complex Orders, ingest as linked Items on the Ad Inventory Board.

  5. Owner reconciliation and user provisioning

    We extract every distinct Boostr User referenced on Advertiser, Campaign, Proposal, and Order records and match by email against the Monday.com workspace members. Users without a matching Monday.com account go to a reconciliation queue. The customer's Monday.com admin provisions any missing workspace members before record ingestion resumes. Owner assignment on Monday.com Items uses the Person Column type, and we confirm all Person Column values are correctly attributed to the right workspace users.

  6. Validation, reconciliation, and workflow handoff

    We run a post-migration reconciliation comparing migrated record counts against the Boostr export counts — Advertisers in, Deals in, Line Items in, Revenue totals. The customer spot-checks 25-50 records against the Boostr source. We deliver the automation inventory document listing every Boostr workflow requiring rebuild in Monday.com, plus the GAM reconnection checklist. We support a three-day hypercare window to resolve any record-level issues raised by the customer's team. Rebuilding Boostr workflows as Monday.com automations is outside standard migration scope.

Platform deep dives

Context on both ends of the pair

Source

Strengths

  • Combined CRM and OMS eliminates double-entry between sold proposals and booked orders.
  • Omnichannel revenue forecasting tailored to media inventory across digital, print, and broadcast.
  • GAM push integration for ad serving directly from the platform.
  • Pre-built media analytics dashboards covering CPM, fill rate, and placement revenue.
  • Configurable pipeline stages and product pricing with no-code administration.

Weaknesses

  • No publicly documented API or bulk export mechanism, requiring manual data pull coordination.
  • Manual activity tracking with no embedded sales engagement or sequence tools.
  • Limited Gmail integration restricted to basic activity logging, not full outreach sync.
  • Inventory management workflows break down for complex multi-format or custom ad unit setups.
  • Platform has no general-purpose CRM capability outside of media ad sales.

Strengths

  • Board-based UI makes pipeline stages and deal progress visually obvious without training.
  • No-code automation builder requires no developer resources to create lead routing and stage-triggered actions.
  • Flexible column system supports custom CRM fields without schema changes or admin involvement.
  • Integrates natively with Slack, Gmail, Outlook, and Zapier with minimal configuration overhead.
  • Layered product means teams already on monday Work Management can add CRM without migrating existing data.

Weaknesses

  • No native Contacts object separate from Items — contacts are managed inside a CRM module's People feature.
  • Pipeline and deal relationships use a flat item model rather than a relational object model, making complex CRM associations awkward.
  • Automations are plan-gated (250 actions/month on Standard, 25,000 on Pro) and the legacy Recipe system is being deprecated.
  • Customization and advanced views (Chart, Formula, Dependency) are locked behind Pro and Enterprise tiers.
  • Per-seat pricing with non-refundable annual billing creates cost lock-in risk during migration.

Migrations under 5,000 Advertisers, 2,000 Orders, and no complex multi-board structures land between three and five weeks. Migrations with high line-item counts (thousands of ad inventory rows per Order), multiple custom field schemas, or active GAM integration configurations move to eight to twelve weeks because of manual export coordination time, column-type mapping work, and integration documentation scope. The manual Boostr export is the primary variable — if the export is clean and complete on the first attempt, the migration timeline stays short.
