Overview
Moving from Claritysoft to Twenty CRM is a data-first migration that requires reconciling two fundamentally different export and import models. Claritysoft exposes its REST API only on Accelerator ($59/user/month) and Enterprise ($69/user/month), making API-based extraction impossible for Professional tier customers. Twenty CRM uses CSV-based import with a prerequisite schema setup: custom fields must exist in Settings → Data Model before any CSV upload, and workspace Members must be invited and accept invitations before owner lookups can resolve during import. We handle the export sequencing from Claritysoft, the field mapping to Twenty's People, Company, and Opportunity objects, the custom field schema pre-creation, and the activity timeline preservation. We do not migrate Workflows, Custom Modules as configured logic, or Profile-Based Record Layouts; we deliver written inventories for the customer's admin to rebuild in Twenty's settings.
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 Claritysoft object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Claritysoft
Contact
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Claritysoft Contacts map 1:1 to Twenty's People object. Standard fields (name, email, phone, address, company association) transfer directly. Custom contact fields migrate as custom fields in Twenty, which must be pre-created in Settings → Data Model before CSV import. We flag any Claritysoft multi-email or multi-phone fields (type-labeled) for mapping to Twenty's single-value email and phone fields, or as additional custom fields.
Claritysoft
Account
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Claritysoft Accounts map to Twenty Companies. Account name becomes the Company name; linked Contact associations migrate as relationship records. Account ownership maps to Twenty's workspace Member field. Note that Twenty's Company object has minimal standard fields per GitHub issue #13953, so industry, employee count, and annual revenue must be pre-created as custom fields before import.
Claritysoft
Lead
Twenty CRM
People (or Opportunity)
lossyClaritysoft Leads with lifecycle stage New or Contacted map to Twenty People as unqualified prospects. Leads with stage Qualified map to Twenty People with a custom lead_status field. We preserve the original Claritysoft lifecycle stage in a custom field for audit. The customer chooses during scoping whether qualified Leads also generate Twenty Opportunities.
Claritysoft
Opportunity
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Opportunities transfer directly with amount, stage, probability, and expected close date preserved. Pipeline stages from Claritysoft map to Twenty Opportunity stage values. For multi-pipeline Claritysoft accounts, we create multiple Twenty Opportunity pipelines or use a custom pipeline_type field to distinguish, depending on the customer's preference.
Claritysoft
Task
Twenty CRM
Task
1:1Tasks migrate to Twenty Tasks with due date, completion status, and owner preserved. Linked-to record associations migrate as Twenty relationship lookups. Task assignments resolve by matching Claritysoft owner email to Twenty workspace Member email.
Claritysoft
Activity (Call, Meeting)
Twenty CRM
Task
1:1Claritysoft Activity records (Calls, Meetings) map to Twenty Tasks with activity type preserved in a custom activity_type field. Start time, duration, and location transfer. Linked attendees map to Twenty workspace Members by email match. Meeting notes migrate as Twenty Note records linked to the parent Task.
Claritysoft
Pipeline Stage
Twenty CRM
Opportunity Stage
lossyClaritysoft Pipeline Stages map to Twenty Opportunity stage values. Stage names, order, and probabilities transfer. We configure stage values in Twenty before Opportunity import begins. Stage probability percentages round to the nearest integer allowed by Twenty.
Claritysoft
Custom Module (Accelerator+)
Twenty CRM
Custom Object
1:1Claritysoft Custom Modules (Accelerator and Enterprise only) migrate to Twenty Custom Objects. We pre-create the destination schema in Twenty's Settings → Data Model before any CSV import. Module relationships to standard objects (Contacts, Accounts) migrate as Twenty relationship fields. Custom Module data migrates last because lookup dependencies must resolve against migrated standard records. Calculated field logic does not transfer.
Claritysoft
Custom Field
Twenty CRM
Custom Field
lossyClaritysoft Custom Fields migrate to Twenty custom fields on the corresponding object. We create all custom fields in Twenty Settings → Data Model before importing data. Calculated Custom Fields from Claritysoft Accelerator/Enterprise must be manually rebuilt in Twenty because calculated logic does not transfer. Select field options migrate as Twenty select options.
Claritysoft
Helpdesk Ticket (Accelerator+)
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (Ticket)
1:1Claritysoft Helpdesk Tickets (Accelerator tier and above) migrate to a Twenty Custom Object named Ticket. Ticket status, priority, assignee, subject, and description transfer. Conversation threads migrate as Note records or a custom comment field. We note that Twenty has no native helpdesk UI; the customer uses the custom Ticket object with Twenty's standard table and detail views.
Claritysoft
Project (Accelerator+)
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (Project) + Tasks
1:1Claritysoft Projects (Accelerator tier and above) migrate to a Twenty Custom Object with linked Tasks. Milestones map to a custom milestone field or subtasks. Assignee mapping resolves via email match to Twenty workspace Members. Project-level metadata (dates, status, budget) transfers as custom fields on the Project object.
Claritysoft
User/Owner
Twenty CRM
Workspace Member
1:1Claritysoft Users and Owners map to Twenty workspace Members. We extract distinct owner and assignee emails from all migrating records and match against the Twenty workspace Member list. Members without a matching Twenty User go to a reconciliation queue; the customer's admin provisions missing members before record import resumes. Twenty requires all members to accept invitations before owner lookups resolve during CSV import.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Claritysoft gotchas
API access gated behind tier — Professional users cannot export via API
1 million record limit on Enterprise tier is migration-critical for large datasets
API key inherits owner's permission scope — limited-user keys miss records
Workflow Date Triggers require Enterprise tier and do not migrate cleanly
Importing bad data is a known failure mode Claritysoft warns against
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and API availability check
We audit the source Claritysoft account across tier (Professional/Accelerator/Enterprise), record counts per object, active Custom Modules, active Workflows, and engagement volume. We confirm API availability and adjust the extraction method accordingly. For Professional tier accounts, we plan a manual CSV extraction strategy with browser-based extraction fallback. The discovery output is a written migration scope specifying export method, record counts, field coverage gaps, and custom object dependencies.
Twenty workspace preparation and field schema creation
We create all custom fields in Twenty Settings → Data Model before any data import. This includes Claritysoft custom fields mapped to Twenty custom fields, plus any standard fields (industry, employee count, annual revenue, job title, department) that Twenty lacks by default per GitHub issue #13953. We configure field types, select options, default values, uniqueness constraints, and required-field settings at this stage. Fields are validated against the Claritysoft source schema to ensure no data will be truncated or rejected during CSV import.
Team member provisioning and owner reconciliation
We extract every distinct owner and assignee email from Claritysoft records and match against the Twenty workspace Member list. Any owner without a matching Twenty User goes to a reconciliation queue. The customer's admin provisions missing members in Twenty and waits for acceptance. Migration cannot proceed past this step because Twenty's CSV import requires owner lookups to resolve at import time. We cross-check exported record counts against Claritysoft in-system counts to verify coverage before committing.
Data extraction from Claritysoft
For Accelerator and Enterprise tier accounts, we use the Claritysoft REST API with batch extraction, exponential backoff, and record count validation against in-system counts. For Professional tier accounts, we perform CSV export using Claritysoft's built-in export function or FlitStack AI-assisted browser extraction. We flag any records the generating user cannot access due to Profile-Based Record Layout permissions.
Data profiling and cleansing
We run a data profiling pass on the extracted Claritysoft data. We flag duplicates (records with matching email or company name), missing required fields (blank emails on Contacts), malformed date formats, and inconsistent data. Claritysoft's own documentation lists importing bad data as a top implementation failure mode. We present the cleansing report to the customer's admin for correction before import.
Production import in dependency order
We import data in record-dependency order: Workspace Members (already provisioned, validated), Companies (from Claritysoft Accounts), People (from Claritysoft Contacts and Leads with lifecycle stage mapping), Opportunities, Tasks and Activities, then Custom Objects, Helpdesk Tickets, and Projects (last, because they often have lookups to standard objects). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.
Cutover, validation, and Workflow rebuild handoff
We freeze Claritysoft writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Twenty as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow and Custom Module inventory document to the customer's admin team with rebuild recommendations. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Claritysoft Workflows or Custom Module calculated logic inside the migration scope.
