Overview

What this migration involves

CASEpeer is a practice-management platform built for personal injury plaintiffs' firms — it organizes work around Cases, Clients, Parties, Medical Providers, and Case Calendar Events, with custom intake forms and statute-of-limitations tracking. Freshsales (Freshworks CRM) is a general-purpose sales CRM that organizes data around Leads, Contacts, Accounts, and Opportunities, with built-in Freddy AI scoring, Kanban pipelines, and a tiered feature model (Growth, Pro, Enterprise at $9–$59/user/month). The two platforms share standard CRM concepts (contacts, companies, activities, tasks) but CASEpeer's legal-case schema — Case Type, Case Status, Insurance Carrier fields, opposing-party records, and statute deadlines — has no native Freshsales equivalent and must be mapped into custom fields and opportunity properties. We extract CASEpeer data via API (or their documented four-stage data transfer process), run a sample migration against a Freshsales sandbox, then bulk-load all objects with owner resolution by email match. Workflows, custom intake forms, and calendar-rule integrations do not migrate — we export definitions as JSON for your Freshsales admin to rebuild in Freshsales Automations or Workflow Rules.

Field-level fidelity

Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Schema-aware mapping

AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.

Relationships preserved

Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Full activity history

Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.

Attachments & notes

Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

CASEpeer logo

CASEpeer

What's pushing teams away

  • Dropbox integration breaks persist without resolution — at least one firm reported a custom folder creation bug lasting five months with no fix, blocking document access for newer client files and forcing workarounds.
  • Texting limitations frustrate communication-heavy workflows — users report lack of mass texting capability, no attachment support in messages, and cluttered in-app notifications that require external tools to replace.
  • Missing features force reliance on external software — essential tasks such as certain document workflows, client intake, and reporting require external actions or third-party integrations that CASEpeer does not natively cover.
  • Document management inconsistencies — folder structures and document naming conventions do not always behave predictably, with one reviewer noting lawyers cannot refer to files that should exist in CASEpeer-hosted folders.
  • Reporting is tier-gated — the Data Sync feature (S3 + Athena + BI tool connectivity) is restricted to the Advanced tier, leaving Basic and Pro users without a native path to operational analytics.

Choosing

Freshsales logo

Freshsales

What's pulling them in

  • Lowest barrier to entry among major CRMs — the free tier supports up to 3 users and includes core CRM functionality before committing to per-seat pricing.
  • Built-in chat, email, and phone reduce reliance on third-party integrations for basic sales communication and contact management.
  • Freddy AI contact scoring and deal insights are included on Pro plans at a lower price than comparable HubSpot tiers.
  • Kanban pipeline views across Contacts, Accounts, and Deals provide visual deal management without requiring custom configuration.
  • Integration with the broader Freshworks ecosystem (Freshdesk, Freshchat, Freshservice) reduces tool sprawl for teams already using Freshworks.

Object mapping

How CASEpeer objects map to Freshsales

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

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

CASEpeer

Client (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Contact / Lead (Freshsales)

1:many
Fully supported

CASEpeer Clients are person records. Active clients with open cases route to Freshsales Contact linked to an Account. Referral-only or dormant clients with no case history route to Freshsales Lead. The split is determined by whether the CASEpeer Client has at least one Case record with status not equal to Closed.

CASEpeer

Case (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Opportunity (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

Each CASEpeer Case maps to one Freshsales Opportunity. CASEpeer Case Type populates a custom Opportunity field (Case_Type__c). CASEpeer Case Status maps to Freshsales Opportunity Stage via a value map (e.g., Open → 'Qualification', Settled → 'Closed Won', Closed → 'Closed Lost').

CASEpeer

Case Party (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Contact / Custom Field on Opportunity (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer Party records (opposing counsel, insurance adjusters, medical providers) have a role field. We map the Party Name and Role into a JSON-encoded custom field on the related Opportunity (Party_Records__c) and create a corresponding Freshsales Contact for each named party so your team can search and link them.

CASEpeer

Company (CASEpeer — firm internal records)

maps to

Freshsales

Account (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

Firm name and any affiliated organization records in CASEpeer map to Freshsales Account. Primary contact on the Account is the attorney or firm admin. Account Type is set to 'Law Firm' or 'Partner' based on the source record type. Any billing or administrative contacts stored in CASEpeer become secondary Contact records linked to the Account.

CASEpeer

Medical Provider (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Account (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer Medical Provider records map to Freshsales Accounts with Type='Medical Provider'. Provider specialty and contact information map to Account standard fields; provider notes map to a custom field. NPI numbers or license IDs stored in CASEpeer are preserved as custom fields on the Account for verification purposes.

CASEpeer

Calendar Event / Court Date (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Event (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer calendar events linked to Cases become Freshsales Events with the Case Opportunity as the parent record. Start/end times, reminders, and event titles are preserved. Events not linked to a Case become standalone Events attached to the relevant Contact or Account.

CASEpeer

Task (CASEpeer — case-linked tasks)

maps to

Freshsales

Task (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer tasks linked to Cases map to Freshsales Tasks with the Opportunity as the parent record. Task subject, due date, status, and owner are preserved. Owner is resolved by email match against Freshsales users. Recurring task patterns in CASEpeer are noted for your admin to recreate using Freshsales Workflow Rules or Tasks post-migration.

CASEpeer

Custom Intake Form (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Fields on Contact / Opportunity (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer custom intake fields on Clients and Cases map to Freshsales custom fields on the Contact and Opportunity objects respectively. Field types are matched (text→Text, date→Date, dropdown→Picklist). Multi-select intake values are stored as semicolon-delimited text in Freshsales unless a custom picklist is pre-created.

CASEpeer

Document / Attachment (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Document / Attachment (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer file attachments linked to Cases or Clients are downloaded and re-uploaded to the corresponding Freshsales Contact or Opportunity record. Freshsales file size limits (25MB per file) apply; files exceeding this are split or linked via URL reference. Original file names and upload dates are preserved in the Freshsales attachment metadata.

CASEpeer

User / Owner (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

User (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer users (attorneys, paralegals, admins) are matched to Freshsales users by email address. Unmatched users are flagged before migration; your team either invites them to Freshsales or assigns their records to a fallback user. CASEpeer role information is stored as a custom field on the Freshsales User record for reference.

CASEpeer

Statute of Limitations (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Field on Opportunity (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

CASEpeer's statute of limitations date on each Case maps to a custom Date field (Statute_of_Limitations__c) on the corresponding Freshsales Opportunity. Expiration alerts would need to be recreated as Freshsales Workflow Rules or Tasks by your admin post-migration. We provide the workflow definition as JSON for your admin to import into Freshsales Automations.

CASEpeer

Insurance Carrier (CASEpeer)

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Field on Opportunity / Account (Freshsales)

1:1
Fully supported

Insurance carrier name, policy number, and claim status from CASEpeer Cases map to custom fields on the Opportunity (Insurance_Carrier__c, Policy_Number__c) and on the Account representing the insurer (created as an Account record with Type='Insurance Carrier'). Carrier contact information is stored on the Account for reference during case follow-up.

Pair-specific challenges

  • CASEpeer custom intake form fields need Freshsales custom fields pre-created before migration

    CASEpeer Advanced tier custom intake forms can include dozens of firm-specific fields (e.g., accident location, police report number, prior injury history) that have no Freshsales native equivalent. Freshsales custom fields must be created in the CRM UI or via API before data is loaded — if the fields do not exist at import time, those values are silently skipped. We deliver a custom-field creation checklist based on your CASEpeer field inventory so your Freshsales admin can pre-build the schema before the migration runs.

  • CASEpeer statute-of-limitations tracking has no Freshsales native reminder mechanism

    CASEpeer's Advanced tier includes statute-of-limitations date tracking with reminders tied to case records. Freshsales has no built-in statute field — we map it to Statute_of_Limitations__c on the Opportunity as a custom Date field. However, Freshsales does not automatically generate deadline reminders from custom date fields; your team must build Workflow Rules (available on Pro and Enterprise plans) to create tasks or send alerts as the date approaches. We provide the workflow rule definition as JSON export so your Freshsales admin can replicate the reminder logic.

  • CASEpeer party records (opposing counsel, insurers) require multiple object targets in Freshsales

    CASEpeer distinguishes between Clients, Medical Providers, Insurance Carriers, and other Party types as separate entity records. Freshsales does not have a native Party object — all of these become either Contacts, Accounts, or custom-field data on the Case Opportunity. We create Contacts for named individuals and Accounts for carrier/organization entities, but the relationship hierarchy (which party played what role in which case) is stored as encoded data in a custom Opportunity field (Party_Records__c). Your Freshsales admin should review this encoding and decide whether to build a custom junction object for full role reporting.

  • CASEpeer's per-user pricing means the migration user count may differ from Freshsales

    CASEpeer charges $79–$149/user/month depending on tier. Freshsales pricing starts at $9/user/month (Growth). A common migration surprise is realizing that CASEpeer user seats (attorneys, paralegals) may not map 1:1 to Freshsales user seats — CASEpeer admins, billing-only users, or read-only staff may not need Freshsales licenses. We provide a user-role analysis before migration so you can right-size your Freshsales seat count and avoid paying for unused licenses. Conversely, if your firm has more CASEpeer users than Freshsales plans allow, you'll need to adjust before assigning owners to migrated records.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful CASEpeer to Freshsales data migration

  1. Connect to CASEpeer and extract full object inventory

    We authenticate against the CASEpeer API (or use the four-stage data transfer files from your CASEpeer implementation team) and pull a complete export of Clients, Cases, Case Parties, Medical Providers, Users, Calendar Events, Tasks, and all custom intake form field values. We validate record counts and flag any fields that have no Freshsales mapping candidate before building the migration plan.

  2. Map CASEpeer schema to Freshsales objects and pre-create custom fields

    We build an object-level mapping plan (Client → Contact/Lead, Case → Opportunity, Party → Contact/Account, etc.) and a field-level mapping document for every CASEpeer standard and custom field. Your Freshsales admin creates the required custom fields on Contact, Opportunity, and Account using the field creation checklist we deliver. We verify field existence before the migration run to prevent silent data drops.

  3. Resolve CASEpeer users to Freshsales users by email

    We match CASEpeer user email addresses against your Freshsales user list. Unmatched users are flagged with a remediation list — your team either creates the Freshsales user first or assigns a fallback user for their records. No record lands in Freshsales without a valid owner, preventing orphaned Opportunities that can't be assigned to a queue post-migration. We also capture CASEpeer role information (Attorney, Paralegal, Admin) and store it in a custom User field so your team retains visibility into each user's original CASEpeer role after migration.

  4. Run a sample migration with field-level diff against Freshsales sandbox

    We migrate a representative slice — typically 100–300 records spanning clients, cases, case parties, and activities — into a Freshsales sandbox environment. We generate a field-level diff showing source values vs. destination field values for every mapped field so you can verify case type mapping, statute date transfer, owner resolution, and party record encoding before committing to the full run.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window

    The full migration runs against your live Freshsales account. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any new cases, client updates, or calendar events created in CASEpeer during the cutover. All operations are logged in an audit trail, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation fails. After go-live, we deliver a migration summary report showing record counts, skipped records, and owner resolution status.

Most CASEpeer-to-Freshsales migrations complete in 48–72 hours of clock time for firms with under 50,000 records (clients, cases, parties, activities combined). Firms with Advanced-tier CASEpeer setups — which may include thousands of case records, multi-field intake forms, and statute-date tracking — extend to 5–10 days. The longest planning step is pre-creating Freshsales custom fields to match CASEpeer's intake form schema; that must be done before data is loaded.
