Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from Dialytica to Twenty CRM is a pivot from a call-center-specific outbound platform to a full relationship-management database. Dialytica concentrates on Campaigns, Contacts, Call Records, QA Reviews, and SMS Activities with no native CRM objects such as Accounts or Deals; Twenty CRM provides a self-hosted, open-source CRM with a generic data model and permission system that accommodates these concepts natively. The primary technical constraint is Dialytica's lack of a publicly documented API, which requires manual CSV extraction or per-account export evaluation during discovery. AI-generated campaign rules, call disposition logic, and QA scorecard weighting are opaque in Dialytica and cannot replicate in Twenty; we capture the outcome data and flag these gaps for manual rebuild. We do not migrate Workflows, automations, or dial-plan branching logic as code.

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

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform logo

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

What's pushing teams away

  • Teams scaling beyond basic outbound dialing find the platform lacks advanced CRM features like pipeline management, account hierarchies, or robust contact scoring.
  • The narrow focus on call campaigns and QA means other marketing channels like email, web personalization, and multi-touch nurturing require separate platforms.
  • Limited integration ecosystem means Dialytica connections to popular CRMs, BI tools, or analytics platforms are fewer than what HubSpot or Marketo offer.
  • Teams with complex compliance needs for call recording, data residency, or call logging report that Dialytica's controls may not meet enterprise audit requirements.

Choosing

Twenty CRM logo

Twenty CRM

What's pulling them in

  • Top open-source CRM on GitHub with 40.6K stars, giving teams full source code access and infrastructure ownership without per-feature licensing surprises.
  • Free self-hosting under AGPL-3.0 means unlimited users and custom objects for the cost of cloud infrastructure alone, typically $20–100/month.
  • Pricing page explicitly mocks competitors for charging add-on fees for API access, webhooks, and workflows — transparency that resonates with RevOps teams burned by Salesforce.
  • Unlimited custom objects and fields with no price impact, letting teams shape the data model to their business rather than forcing business into rigid schemas.
  • Modern TypeScript/React/PostgreSQL stack means developer-led teams can extend, self-host, or integrate without fighting legacy architecture.

Object mapping

How Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform objects map to Twenty CRM

Each row shows how a Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform 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.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

Contact

maps to

Twenty CRM

Person

1:1
Fully supported

Dialytica Contacts map 1:1 to Twenty CRM Person records. Phone numbers, names, email addresses, and campaign assignment history migrate directly. We preserve any custom fields on the Contact as custom fields on the Person object. The Person object in Twenty serves as the primary contact record and can be linked to a Company for account-context tracking.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

Call Campaign

maps to

Twenty CRM

Opportunity or Task

lossy
Fully supported

Dialytica Call Campaigns do not have a direct Twenty CRM equivalent because Twenty does not include a native campaign dialing module. We map Call Campaigns to Twenty Opportunities if the campaign has associated revenue or pipeline context, or to Tasks with custom fields capturing campaign name, schedule, and targeting logic. The customer chooses the strategy during scoping based on how they use campaigns operationally.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

SMS Campaign

maps to

Twenty CRM

Task or Custom Object

lossy
Fully supported

SMS Campaigns similarly lack a direct Twenty CRM equivalent. We map SMS campaign content and targeting configuration to a Custom Object (e.g., SMSCampaign__c) with fields for campaign name, template references, and scheduling. Individual SMS message logs map to Activities linked to the Person record, preserving the campaign-to-message relationship.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

Call Record

maps to

Twenty CRM

Task (Call subtype)

1:1
Fully supported

Call logs migrate as Tasks with TaskSubtype set to Call and custom fields for CallDurationInSeconds, Disposition, and AgentAssignment. The original Dialytica timestamp becomes the Task due date to preserve activity ordering. AI-generated sentiment or quality scores from Dialytica migrate as custom fields if the values are numeric or categorical; free-text AI notes may map to the Task description.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

QA Review

maps to

Twenty CRM

Task linked to Call Record

1:1
Fully supported

QA Reviews in Dialytica are tied to specific call records and contain structured scorecard criteria and supervisor free-text notes. We map the review as a linked Task or a custom QA Review object (QA_Review__c) with a lookup to the corresponding Call Task. Scorecard criteria become individual custom fields; the supervisor notes field migrates as a long-text area.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

SMS Activity

maps to

Twenty CRM

Task (Activity subtype)

1:1
Fully supported

SMS log records migrate as Twenty Tasks scoped to the Person record. Each SMS Activity carries its delivery status, timestamp, and phone number. We preserve campaign context from Dialytica by setting a custom campaign reference field on each SMS Task when the activity is linked to a mapped Call Campaign or SMS Campaign.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

Payment

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Object (Payment__c)

1:1
Fully supported

Dialytica Payment records map to a Twenty CRM custom object Payment__c with fields for amount, status, timestamp, and related Person. Payment__c links to Person via a lookup relationship. If the customer uses Twenty's Opportunities, payments can alternatively attach to an Opportunity if a revenue context exists.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

User / Agent

maps to

Twenty CRM

User

1:1
Fully supported

Dialytica Agent and user accounts map to Twenty CRM User records. We resolve by matching the email address. Active status and role assignments migrate as User custom fields. Agent schedules and shift configurations are not standard Twenty objects and may require supplementary manual capture or a custom Schedule__c object scoped during migration.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

SMS Template

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Field or Note on SMS Campaign

lossy
Fully supported

SMS template body text and merge field structures migrate as custom fields on the SMSCampaign__c custom object or as Note records linked to the campaign. Variable placeholders are preserved as-is; the customer reconciles merge field syntax with the target SMS delivery tool post-migration.

Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform

Script / Dial Plan

maps to

Twenty CRM

Note or Custom Field

lossy
Fully supported

Call scripts and dial plan text content migrate as Note records or long-text custom fields on the corresponding Call Campaign object in Twenty. Branching conditions and dynamic routing logic in Dialytica are opaque and cannot be exported; we capture the script text and sequence only. The customer's admin rebuilds branching logic as a decision tree in their chosen telephony tool.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Dialytica has no publicly documented API

    Dialytica does not publish a public API reference or developer documentation. During scoping, we cannot assume automated export capability and must evaluate each account individually. We assess the account's data export options during discovery and fall back to manual CSV extraction where API access is unavailable. This affects timeline and cost because manual exports require field-by-field CSV mapping instead of programmatic extraction. We communicate the export feasibility gap before migration begins.

  • AI-generated campaign rules do not export

    Dialytica uses internally developed LLMs to optimize campaign targeting and call flows. These AI-driven rules are not stored as structured, exportable logic. When migrating, we capture contact assignments and campaign outcomes but cannot replicate the AI optimization rules in Twenty CRM. Any AI-assisted call routing, disposition recommendations, or agent scoring built into Dialytica must be re-evaluated in Twenty or a third-party AI layer post-migration.

  • SMS and Call data are separate campaign objects

    Dialytica maintains Call Campaigns and SMS Campaigns as distinct objects with separate configurations and logs. A single customer journey may span both channels. We stitch these together during migration scoping to ensure contacts retain their full cross-channel activity history. In Twenty CRM, SMS and Call activity both appear as Tasks on the Person record, but the campaign-to-activity linkage requires custom field resolution during migration.

  • No native Accounts or Deals in Dialytica

    Dialytica's schema does not include Accounts, Companies, or Deals as native objects. Contacts are the primary record type, and campaign attribution is campaign-scoped rather than account-scoped. When migrating to Twenty CRM, we must construct account context during migration—either by creating Company records from contact domain data or by establishing a Deal/Opportunity object for tracked revenue. This schema gap adds design work to the scoping phase.

  • Dial plan branching logic not exportable

    Call scripts and dial plan logic in Dialytica are partially structured and may include conditional branching that is not exposed as exportable data. We extract the script text and sequence but cannot guarantee that branching conditions, dynamic variable routing, or conditional prompts survive the migration intact. The customer should plan to document critical dial plan logic before migration begins so it can be reconstructed in their chosen call infrastructure.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Dialytica - Marketing Automation Platform to Twenty CRM data migration

  1. Export feasibility discovery

    We audit the Dialytica account for available export methods. Because no public API is documented, we evaluate whether CSV exports are accessible from the admin panel, whether a partner API or internal endpoint exists for the specific account, or whether manual record-by-record export is required. We also inventory the objects present (Contacts, Call Campaigns, SMS Campaigns, Call Records, QA Reviews, SMS Activities, Payments, Users, Templates, Scripts) and estimate record counts per object. The output is a confirmed export method and a written object inventory.

  2. Twenty schema design and object mapping

    We design the destination schema in Twenty CRM. This includes creating the Person and Company objects (Twenty standards), provisioning custom objects (SMSCampaign__c, Payment__c, QA_Review__c), adding custom fields for Dialytica-specific attributes (call duration, disposition, agent assignment, AI scores), and configuring the lookup relationships between Person, Company, and activity records. Because Twenty is self-hosted and open source, schema changes deploy directly to the customer's instance via the admin interface or API.

  3. Test migration and reconciliation

    We run a full migration into a Twenty CRM test environment using representative data volume. The customer reconciles record counts (Contacts in, Call Records in, SMS Activities in, QA Reviews in), spot-checks 25-50 records against the Dialytica source, and validates that cross-channel activity history appears correctly on Person records. Mapping corrections and schema adjustments happen in this phase before any production data moves.

  4. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order: Users first (matched by email), then Person records (with Company lookups resolved from domain data where available), then Call Campaigns and SMS Campaigns (mapped to Opportunities or custom campaign objects), then Call Records and SMS Activities as Tasks, then QA Reviews as linked records, then Payments. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.

  5. Cutover, validation, and automation handoff

    We freeze Dialytica writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records created or modified during the migration window, then designate Twenty CRM as the system of record. We deliver a written inventory of Dialytica Workflows, dial-plan branching logic, and AI campaign rules that require manual rebuild in Twenty or a third-party call tool. We do not rebuild these as code. We support a one-week post-cutover window for reconciliation issues raised by the customer's team.

Migrations under 10,000 Contacts with no multi-year call record history and accessible CSV exports land between two and four weeks. Migrations exceeding 50,000 Contacts, complex multi-channel campaign histories, or accounts where export requires manual intervention move to six to ten weeks. The Twenty CRM self-hosted deployment (server setup, domain configuration, initial user provisioning) runs in parallel and does not add to the migration timeline if the customer's team handles it separately.
