Overview
Comet Suite is a mid-market CRM that stores core sales records — contacts, companies, deals, pipeline stages, and activity history — in a flat object model with limited customization surface. Salesforce Sales Cloud uses a relational schema built around Account, Contact, Lead, and Opportunity objects with RecordTypeId to vary page layouts per business unit, StageName pick-lists scoped by Sales Process, and a robust custom-field model with __c suffix and relationship fields. We extract Comet Suite records via its REST API using scoped read access, validate field-level mappings against your destination org's schema, and load via Salesforce Bulk API. Any Comet Suite workflows, assignment rules, or custom automations do not migrate — they must be rebuilt in Salesforce Flow. Our sample-then-full-run approach with field-level diff ensures every contact, company, deal, and custom property lands in the correct Salesforce object with the right field values before you cut over. Owner resolution happens by email match against Salesforce users, and a 24–48 hour delta-pickup window captures in-flight changes during cutover.
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 Comet Suite object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Comet Suite
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1Direct 1:1 map for Comet Suite contact records. Salesforce requires an AccountId for most Contact records — contacts without a primary company in Comet Suite are attached to a default 'Unassigned Accounts' placeholder record, or routed to Salesforce Lead if the source record has no associated company.
Comet Suite
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead
1:manyComet Suite contacts with no associated deal history or with a status indicating an unqualified prospect can be routed to Salesforce Lead by configurable rule. This split is defined during the mapping planning phase and requires your Salesforce admin to confirm the Lead record type and Status pick-list values.
Comet Suite
Company
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1Direct 1:1 map for Comet Suite company records. Standard Salesforce Account fields — including Name, Industry, Website, NumberOfEmployees, and AnnualRevenue — map directly from Comet Suite equivalents. Parent-child company hierarchies in Comet Suite translate to the Salesforce ParentId field on Account, preserving organizational structures during the migration.
Comet Suite
Deal
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1Comet Suite deals migrate as Salesforce Opportunities. Each Opportunity requires AccountId, Name, Amount, StageName, CloseDate, and OwnerId as core fields. Deal-specific custom properties map to Opportunity custom fields, which must be created with the __c suffix in the destination org before the migration run executes.
Comet Suite
Pipeline
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Record Type + Sales Process
1:1Comet Suite pipelines translate into Salesforce Record Types on the Opportunity object, each paired with a named Sales Process. If Comet Suite has three deal pipelines, your Salesforce org needs three Opportunity record types created in Setup before data lands — FlitStack delivers a schema plan specifying which record type maps to which pipeline.
Comet Suite
Pipeline Stage
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity StageName
1:1Stage names from each Comet Suite pipeline map to StageName pick-list values scoped by the corresponding Salesforce Sales Process. Probability and forecast category are re-applied per stage using Salesforce's standard stage-history model. Stage-entry timestamps are preserved as custom datetime fields if your reporting requires them.
Comet Suite
Custom Property (Deal)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field (Opportunity __c)
1:1Comet Suite custom properties on deals require Salesforce custom fields on the Opportunity object with the __c suffix. Fields must be created in Salesforce Setup before migration. FlitStack provides a custom-field creation checklist with field type recommendations based on the source data format — pick-list, text, number, date, or checkbox.
Comet Suite
Activity (Call, Email, Meeting)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task / Event
1:1Comet Suite call logs map to Salesforce Tasks with Type='Call'; email logs map to Tasks with Type='Email'; meeting records map to Salesforce Events with original start and end times preserved. All activities retain their original owner and timestamp, and are linked to the migrated Contact or Opportunity by reconstructed WhoId and WhatId values.
Comet Suite
Attachment / File
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Files / ContentDocument
1:1Comet Suite file attachments on contacts, companies, or deals are downloaded and re-uploaded to Salesforce Files linked to the migrated record. Salesforce's default file size limit is 25MB per file — files exceeding this are flagged and handled per your instructions.
Comet Suite
User / Owner
Salesforce Sales Cloud
User (OwnerId)
1:1Comet Suite owner references are resolved by matching the owner's email address against Salesforce User records. Unmatched owners are flagged in the pre-migration audit — your team either provisions them in Salesforce first or reassigns their records to a designated fallback owner before migration runs.
Comet Suite
Custom Object
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Object (__c)
1:1Comet Suite custom objects map 1:1 to Salesforce custom objects with the __c suffix. Custom-object relationships in Comet Suite that use a many-to-many model require Salesforce junction objects — FlitStack surfaces these as a separate mapping step in the migration plan.
Comet Suite
Notes
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Note / ContentNote
1:1Comet Suite notes migrate to Salesforce Notes (ContentNote) attached to the relevant Contact, Account, or Opportunity record. Rich-text formatting is preserved where supported by the source field, and plain-text notes transfer without transformation. All migrated notes retain their original creation timestamp and owner for complete audit trail continuity.

Migration approach
Comet Suite API discovery and data audit
FlitStack connects to Comet Suite via scoped read-access API credentials and inventories all object types, record counts, custom property definitions, and pipeline configurations. We produce a data audit report showing field-level data quality — duplicate rates, null percentages, and malformed pick-list values — before any mapping work begins. This audit determines whether data cleansing steps are needed before migration and establishes the baseline record counts that drive pricing.
Salesforce schema preparation and custom field creation
Based on the data audit, FlitStack delivers a Salesforce schema preparation checklist: Opportunity record types and Sales Processes to create per Comet Suite pipeline, custom fields with __c suffix to add to Account, Contact, Lead, Opportunity, Task, and Event objects, and pick-list values to define for any custom fields that serve as drop-downs in Comet Suite. Your Salesforce admin creates these in Setup, or our team creates them via the Metadata API on your behalf.
Owner resolution and user provisioning audit
FlitStack extracts all Comet Suite owner records, matches their email addresses against Salesforce User records, and produces an owner resolution report. Owner records that cannot be matched are flagged with recommended actions — either provision a new Salesforce user with that email or reassign records to a designated fallback owner. No deal or contact data loads until owner resolution is confirmed, because Salesforce requires a valid OwnerId on every record.
Sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of records — typically 100–500 covering a cross-section of contacts, companies, deals, and activities — migrates into the destination Salesforce org first. FlitStack generates a field-level diff report comparing source values to destination values for every mapped field, so you can verify that stage names, custom property values, owner assignments, and relationship links are correct before the full run commits. Any mapping corrections are applied before proceeding.
Full migration run with delta-pickup cutover
The full migration extracts all Comet Suite records and loads them into Salesforce via Bulk API, following the validated field mappings. After the initial load completes, a delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any records that were created or modified in Comet Suite during the cutover period. An audit log records every operation, and one-click rollback is available if the reconciliation check fails. Your team continues working in Comet Suite throughout the migration — only read access is requested, so there is no disruption to daily operations.
