Migrate your CINC data
AI-powered lead-generation CRM for real estate teams and an all-in-one HOA/COA association management platform. Most customers migrate in for the automated follow-up and stay for the integrations, but growth-stage teams often outpace what the platform exposes via API.
In its favor
Why people choose CINC
The signal that keeps CINC on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Customers choose CINC Pro for its automated lead-follow-up and AutoTrack behavioral intelligence, which captures prospect activity without manual logging and keeps agents in front of warm leads faster than spreadsheets allow.
The integrated bank reconciliation and TresRE financial integrations in CINC Systems reduce manual accounting work for HOA management companies that previously relied on desktop software or spreadsheets.
Small real estate teams cite the low barrier to entry and quick setup, with one reviewer noting over 10 years of use and returning leads tracked consistently in the system.
The all-in-one portal combining lead management, transaction tracking, and marketing automation in one platform reduces the need to stitch together multiple disconnected tools.
Customers value the responsive customer support, with reviews noting that simple and lower-level support tickets are typically resolved quickly compared to larger enterprise platforms.
The lack of an audit trail for financial transactions creates compliance risk and frustrates accounting staff who need to reconstruct past journal entries or invoice corrections.
Limited customization in reporting and integration options forces teams to work around the platform rather than with it, particularly when connecting to tools not on CINC's approved integration list.
The Collections Module is widely described as over-engineered and unnecessarily complicated, making routine collection workflows harder to execute than they should be.
Group reporting cannot generate accurate financials for fiscal years ending outside of December, which blocks associations with non-standard fiscal years from using the native reporting module.
California e-communication and opt-in/opt-out compliance requirements are not natively supported, forcing regulated HOAs to manually manage communication preferences outside the platform.

Pricing tiers
CINC pricing overview
CINC does not publish pricing publicly. The platform is sold as an annual subscription with a base enterprise package and add-on modules including Accounting, Violations, Work Orders, Cephai AI, and TresRE banking integrations. Sales-assisted pricing is required; typical customer reviews do not disclose specific costs, suggesting significant variability based on community size and module selection.

What gets migrated
CINC object support
Object-by-object support for CINC migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Leads
Fully supportedLeads are the primary object in CINC Pro and the most reliably exportable record type via the dashboard CSV export and REST API. We extract all standard lead fields including source, status, assigned agent, and behavioral data used by AutoTrack. Custom lead properties are supported via mapping.
Contacts
Fully supportedContacts are stored alongside Leads in CINC Pro. We map contact records including name, phone, email, and address fields. Owner assignments and lifecycle stage are preserved as properties on the Contact record.
Companies/Accounts
Fully supportedCompany or Account records are available in CINC Pro and can be exported via CSV or API. We preserve company metadata and associations with related Contacts and Leads.
Deals/Pipeline Stages
Mapping requiredDeals and Pipeline Stages are supported but the pipeline schema varies by team configuration. We map the deal record fields and pipeline stage names, flagging any non-standard stage definitions for manual review before import into the destination CRM.
Activities/AutoTrack Events
Mapping requiredAutoTrack logs behavioral events (website visits, email opens, calls) as activity records. These are timestamped and attributed to a Lead or Contact. We export them as activity history but note that Cephai AI-generated summaries within activities are proprietary to CINC and do not export.
Custom Properties
Mapping requiredCustom fields on Leads, Contacts, and Companies are exportable via CSV and API. We map custom property names and values but flag any fields that exceed 255 characters or contain nested objects, which may require transformation during load.
Units (HOA Systems)
Fully supportedIn CINC Systems (HOA variant), Units represent properties within an association. We export unit records including address, type, and association with an Owner record. The Unit-to-Owner relationship is preserved as a foreign key mapping.
Owners
Fully supportedOwner records in CINC Systems hold the contact and account information for unit owners. We export owner name, contact details, billing address, and owner type. Multi-owner scenarios are flagged because the system historically supports only one owner per unit record.
Violations
Fully supportedViolation records in CINC Systems capture compliance issues tied to a specific Unit. We export violation type, date, status, fine amount, and resolution notes. Open violations are flagged for priority migration sequencing.
Work Orders
Fully supportedWork Order records include description, priority, assigned vendor or staff, status, and associated Unit. We export the full work order lifecycle including any linked invoices or attachments referenced in the system.
Architectural Requests
Mapping requiredArchitectural Request records are tied to Units and include request type, documents, approval status, and board notes. Document attachments are exported separately and re-linked by filename during the load phase. Approval history is preserved as a status log field.
Accounting Ledgers (AR/AP)
Mapping requiredCINC Systems Accounting modules hold Accounts Receivable and Payable records. These export as line-item transactions with account codes, amounts, dates, and vendor or owner references. We map GL account codes and flag any journal-entry corrections that cannot be posted after the fact in the source system.
Reserve Amenity Bookings
Mapping requiredReserve Amenity records track facility reservations for HOA residents. We export booking date, time slot, amenity type, resident name, and status. Active future bookings are flagged for re-confirmation post-migration since calendar sync does not carry over.
Attachments/Documents
Mapping requiredDocument Imaging and attachments are stored in CINC Systems and referenced by record. We export document metadata and file URLs where accessible, and re-link files by filename during load. Documents not accessible via API require a file-system export handled during the discovery phase.
