Overview
Cirrus CRM is built around a flat object model — contacts, organizations, and activities with limited custom field extensibility and a reporting layer that caps out at basic pipeline views. Teams outgrow it when they need HubSpot's lifecycle-stage-driven lead routing, multi-pipeline deal management, and the marketing-sales-service hub that grows from starter through enterprise without platform switching. The migration carries everything Cirrus CRM stores natively — contacts, companies, deals, activities, notes, and custom fields — into HubSpot's object graph. The harder translation problems are mapping Cirrus's flat activity log to HubSpot's engagement timeline, resolving Cirrus owner IDs against HubSpot users by email match, and deciding how Cirrus's ERP-linked quote and order data becomes HubSpot deals or line-item properties. We sequence the migration so foreign-key relationships resolve correctly: companies land first, then contacts linked by company ID, then deals with their associated contacts and owners. A delta-pickup window captures any records modified in Cirrus CRM during cutover. Workflows, automation sequences, and ERP integration logic do not migrate — we document the Cirrus workflow structure for your HubSpot admin to rebuild in HubSpot's workflow builder.
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 Cirrus CRM object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Cirrus CRM
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1Direct map. HubSpot stores the contact record with all standard properties (name, email, phone, jobtitle). Original create date and last-modified date from Cirrus CRM preserved as custom datetime fields since HubSpot overwrites CreatedAt at import time. Owner resolved by email match to HubSpot users.
Cirrus CRM
Organization
HubSpot
Company
1:1Direct map. HubSpot Company object receives the Cirrus organization name, domain, industry, employee count, and annual revenue. Parent-company hierarchy in Cirrus CRM maps to HubSpot's subsidiary company association model. Multi-org contacts in Cirrus CRM link to the primary HubSpot company via the company_id association.
Cirrus CRM
Deal
HubSpot
Deal
1:1Direct map. Cirrus CRM deal name, amount, stage, and close date migrate to HubSpot Deal properties. HubSpot's deal pipeline stage pick-list is populated from Cirrus CRM stage names. If Cirrus CRM uses multiple pipelines, each pipeline maps to a separate HubSpot deal pipeline with its own stage set.
Cirrus CRM
Deal Pipeline
HubSpot
Deal Pipeline
1:1Each Cirrus CRM deal pipeline maps to its own HubSpot deal pipeline. The pipeline's stage names, associated win probabilities, and display order are transferred directly. HubSpot supports multiple simultaneous pipelines natively — no structural changes required beyond creating the pipeline shell in HubSpot settings. Each stage in HubSpot is populated with matching labels and probability values from Cirrus CRM, preserving your original pipeline logic in the new system.
Cirrus CRM
Activity (Call, Email, Meeting)
HubSpot
Engagement Timeline
1:1Cirrus CRM activity logs (call duration, email subject, meeting start/end time) migrate as HubSpot engagements. Call activities attach as HubSpot call engagement records with duration and outcome. Emails migrate as email engagements with subject and timestamp. Meetings become HubSpot meetings linked to the contact record.
Cirrus CRM
Note
HubSpot
Engagement Note
1:1Cirrus CRM notes migrate as HubSpot engagement notes on the associated contact or company record. The original note body and its creation timestamp are preserved in the migration. Rich-text formatting within notes is flattened to plain text to prevent any display inconsistencies or rendering issues in HubSpot's note component, ensuring readability across all devices and browsers.
Cirrus CRM
Quote / Order (ERP-linked)
HubSpot
Deal Custom Properties
1:1Cirrus CRM quote and order data linked from ERP systems does not have a native HubSpot equivalent. We surface ERP-linked fields from Cirrus CRM as custom properties on HubSpot Deals (e.g., ERP_Order_ID__c, ERP_Quote_Status__c). Your team decides whether to rebuild order management in HubSpot or keep ERP as the system of record.
Cirrus CRM
Custom Field (any object)
HubSpot
Custom Property
1:1Cirrus CRM custom fields on contacts, organizations, or deals migrate to HubSpot custom properties. Field type is preserved where possible (text → string, number → number, date → datetime, picklist → select). Multi-select fields in Cirrus CRM map to HubSpot multi-select properties. Field label and description copied for admin reference.
Cirrus CRM
User / Owner
HubSpot
User
1:1Cirrus CRM owner IDs are resolved against HubSpot users by email address match. Unmatched owners are flagged in the migration report — you either invite them to HubSpot first or reassign their records to a designated fallback user before the migration runs.
Cirrus CRM
Attachment / File
HubSpot
File Attachment
1:1Files attached to Cirrus CRM contacts, organizations, or deals are downloaded and re-uploaded to HubSpot's file manager, then linked to the destination record. Original file metadata including create date and file type are preserved during the transfer. File size limits follow HubSpot's file storage constraints — files exceeding limits are flagged for manual handling. Each file re-upload is logged in the migration audit trail for traceability and reconciliation purposes.
Cirrus CRM
Campaign
HubSpot
HubSpot Campaign (marketing)
1:1Cirrus CRM campaign tracking data has no direct equivalent in HubSpot's standard CRM objects. HubSpot's Campaign object is specifically a Marketing Hub artifact for organizing marketing assets and tracking campaign performance. We preserve all campaign attribution data as custom contact properties (e.g., Original_Campaign_Source__c, Original_Campaign_Name__c) rather than creating empty or unlinked Campaign records. Your HubSpot admin can populate the HubSpot Campaign object manually if Marketing Hub is active.

Migration approach
Audit Cirrus CRM data export and build field mapping plan
We extract a full data dump from Cirrus CRM via their API or supported export format. Our team catalogs every standard and custom field across contacts, organizations, deals, and activities. We build the field mapping spreadsheet and flag ERP-linked fields, multi-select fields, and any Cirrus CRM data types that require type conversion in HubSpot. This step produces the migration plan that your HubSpot admin reviews before we touch any data.
Create HubSpot pipelines, custom properties, and user accounts
Before data moves, your HubSpot admin (or our team with admin credentials) creates the deal pipelines, custom properties, and user accounts. We deliver a HubSpot setup checklist based on the Cirrus CRM field inventory — every custom field from Cirrus CRM gets a corresponding HubSpot property, and each Cirrus CRM pipeline gets its own HubSpot pipeline with matching stages. Owner email addresses from Cirrus CRM are mapped to HubSpot user invitations.
Resolve owner and company dependencies, sequence the migration order
HubSpot requires companies to exist before contacts (for association) and contacts to exist before deals (for deal-contact links). We sequence the migration so companies land first, then contacts with their company associations, then deals linked to both. Owner IDs are resolved by email match against HubSpot users. Any Cirrus CRM owner without a HubSpot user account is flagged — you either invite them first or assign their records to a fallback HubSpot user.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
Before committing the full dataset, we run a representative sample migration covering 100–500 records across contacts, companies, deals, and a cross-section of activity types. The sample run generates a field-level diff report that shows every source value from Cirrus CRM, its mapped destination property in HubSpot, and any transformation applied during the migration. You verify that lifecycle data, custom field values, association links, and activity timestamps appear correctly in HubSpot. This validation step confirms mapping accuracy before the full run, allowing you to catch and correct any issues in the migration logic before they affect the complete dataset.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup and audit log
The full dataset migrates to HubSpot with all associations intact. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours after the initial run) captures any records created or modified in Cirrus CRM during the cutover window. Every operation is logged in the FlitStack audit log. If reconciliation reveals a mapping error, one-click rollback reverts the migration so your HubSpot portal is clean for a retry.
