Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from Divalto weavy to Freshsales addresses two structural gaps: the absence of a public API on Divalto weavy's side and the lack of English-language documentation and peer review coverage for the source platform. Freshsales, the CRM product from Freshworks (NASDAQ: FRSH), provides a documented REST API, a free tier up to three users, and built-in phone, email, and Freddy AI capabilities that Divalto weavy's Zapier-only integration model cannot match. We extract data from Divalto weavy via vendor-facilitated exports or manual CSV pulls because no bulk export endpoint exists, then map every standard and Development Studio custom field to a typed Freshsales field before import. Workflow configurations built in Divalto weavy's Development Studio do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild in Freshsales.

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

Divalto weavy

What's pushing teams away

  • Pricing is consistently cited as a downside in French reviews — entry rate from €40/user/month with no free plan, which is steep for VSEs (very small enterprises).
  • No free or freemium tier, so evaluation requires a paid commitment or sales-led demo rather than self-serve trial.
  • Outside France/French-speaking Europe the support and integrator network is thin, limiting adoption for multinational rollouts.
  • Focus on SME/mid-market means very small startups and global enterprises both fall outside the natural fit zone.
  • Catalog website mismatch (weavy.com is a different product) makes vendor identification harder for international buyers — the actual product lives at divalto.com.

Choosing

Freshsales logo

Freshsales

What's pulling them in

  • Lowest barrier to entry among major CRMs — the free tier supports up to 3 users and includes core CRM functionality before committing to per-seat pricing.
  • Built-in chat, email, and phone reduce reliance on third-party integrations for basic sales communication and contact management.
  • Freddy AI contact scoring and deal insights are included on Pro plans at a lower price than comparable HubSpot tiers.
  • Kanban pipeline views across Contacts, Accounts, and Deals provide visual deal management without requiring custom configuration.
  • Integration with the broader Freshworks ecosystem (Freshdesk, Freshchat, Freshservice) reduces tool sprawl for teams already using Freshworks.

Object mapping

How Divalto weavy objects map to Freshsales

Each row shows how a Divalto weavy object lands in Freshsales, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

Divalto weavy

Company

maps to

Freshsales

Account

1:1
Fully supported

Divalto weavy Company records map directly to Freshsales Account. We extract the company name, industry classification, billing address, and shipping address from the source export, then map them to the corresponding Freshsales Account fields. The source export's unique company identifier is preserved in a custom field divalto_id__c for audit and reconciliation. Parent-company hierarchies in Divalto weavy map to Freshsales parent Account relationships if the destination Account already exists from a prior import phase.

Divalto weavy

Contact

maps to

Freshsales

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Divalto weavy Contact records map to Freshsales Contact with standard field mapping for name, email, phone, mobile, job title, and address fields. Any custom fields created in the Development Studio are flagged for explicit mapping to Freshsales custom fields that we pre-create in the destination account before import. We use email as the deduplication key and flag duplicate Contact records for customer review before insert.

Divalto weavy

Lead

maps to

Freshsales

Lead

1:1
Fully supported

Divalto weavy's suspect-to-prospect-to-client lifecycle stages map to Freshsales Lead Status values. We extract the current stage name and the lead source field and map them to Freshsales lead_status and lead_source respectively. Any custom lead fields from the Development Studio migrate to Freshsales custom fields on the Lead object. Prospects in late stages (sales-qualified or client) may be migrated as Contacts attached to Accounts instead if the customer's Freshsales admin prefers to skip the Lead object entirely.

Divalto weavy

Deal

maps to

Freshsales

Deal

1:1
Fully supported

Divalto weavy Deals map to Freshsales Deal records. We map deal name, deal value, expected close date, stage, and owner. Stage names from Divalto weavy's configurable pipeline are mapped to Freshsales deal stage values, which are also configurable in the destination. Owner resolution uses email matching against the Freshsales User table; unresolved owners are held in a reconciliation queue for admin provisioning.

Divalto weavy

Pipeline Stage

maps to

Freshsales

Deal Stage

lossy
Fully supported

Divalto weavy's configurable pipeline stages are extracted during discovery and mapped to Freshsales deal stage values. Each stage's probability percentage migrates to the corresponding Freshsales stage probability field. We flag any custom stages that have no obvious Freshsales equivalent for explicit customer review before import.

Divalto weavy

Activity (Call, Meeting, Task)

maps to

Freshsales

Task or Event

1:1
Fully supported

Divalto weavy Activities (calls, meetings, action items) map to Freshsales Task and Event records. Call activities become Task records with subtype=Call and duration preserved in a custom field. Meeting activities become Event records with start time, end time, and location preserved. We link each activity to its parent Contact or Deal via the WhoId and WhatId references, which we resolve at migration time using the email and deal name lookup keys established during the earlier import phases.

Divalto weavy

Development Studio Custom Object

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Field

lossy
Fully supported

Organizations with custom objects or custom fields built in the Development Studio have schemas that vary per tenant and have no documented export format. We handle this by running a pre-migration schema audit that manually catalogues every custom object and field definition, then pre-creates equivalent Freshsales custom fields before any data loads. Custom object relationships to standard objects (Company, Contact, Deal) are recreated as Freshsales lookup or association fields. This step adds one to two weeks to the discovery phase but prevents silent data loss on non-standard fields.

Divalto weavy

User/Team Member

maps to

Freshsales

User

1:1
Fully supported

Divalto weavy user profiles (Standard, Sales, Technician, Full) are extracted from the source data and mapped to Freshsales User records. We resolve by matching the user email address between the two platforms. Any Divalto weavy user who does not have an active Freshsales license is flagged for the customer's admin to provision before the Contact and Deal import phases begin, because OwnerId references on Deals and Contacts require a valid User lookup.

Pair-specific challenges

  • No public API forces manual data export coordination

    Divalto weavy does not publish a REST API reference and has no documented bulk data export endpoint. We cannot perform direct API reads or writes for migration. Instead, we coordinate with Divalto weavy support to request full data exports from the vendor portal, or we guide the customer through manual CSV exports from within the platform. This adds steps and dependencies on vendor responsiveness, and the export format may require additional transformation before it is compatible with Freshsales field types. We factor export coordination time into the project schedule and recommend initiating the vendor export request during the discovery phase.

  • Development Studio custom fields require explicit schema mapping

    Organizations with custom objects or custom fields built in the Development Studio have non-standard schemas that vary per tenant. There is no documented schema registry or export of custom field definitions. We handle this by running a pre-migration schema audit that manually catalogues every custom object and field, then pre-creates equivalent Freshsales custom fields before any data loads. Without this step, custom field data silently fails to migrate or lands in the wrong object. The audit adds one to two weeks to the discovery phase but is required for data completeness.

  • Route and itinerary data has no Freshsales equivalent

    Divalto weavy's route planning and itinerary data are designed for mobile field workers and have no standard equivalent in Freshsales. If this data is critical to operations, customers must decide whether to export it as a standalone report before cutover and store it outside the CRM. We flag this gap during the scoping call, offer a manual export workflow as an optional add-on, and do not include route or itinerary data in the standard migration package. This is a permanent data model gap, not a mapping issue that can be resolved with custom fields.

  • Divalto weavy's suspect-to-prospect lifecycle may map to multiple Freshsales objects

    Divalto weavy tracks prospects through a suspect-to-prospect-to-client lifecycle. In Freshsales, this lifecycle can be modeled using the Lead object (for suspects) or the Contact object (for clients), or a combination of both with the lead_status field indicating progression. We define the split and status mapping rules during discovery based on the customer's current lifecycle configuration. Migrations that skip this step end up with all contacts as Freshsales Contacts with no lead audit trail, or all as Leads with no client history.

  • Activity timestamp formats may differ between source exports and Freshsales import

    Divalto weavy exports may use French locale date formats (DD/MM/YYYY) or inconsistent timestamp conventions that do not align with Freshsales ISO 8601 requirements. We normalize all date and timestamp fields during the transformation step, converting them to YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format before writing to Freshsales. Fields that cannot be parsed are logged to an error report for manual review before the affected records are retried.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Divalto weavy to Freshsales data migration

  1. Discovery and export coordination

    We audit the Divalto weavy tenant for all standard objects (Companies, Contacts, Leads, Deals, Pipeline Stages, Activities) and any custom objects defined in the Development Studio. We also initiate the vendor export request during this phase to avoid blocking later steps. We extract a sample of 50-100 records from each object to validate field coverage and identify any non-standard data types or formats before committing to a full export. The discovery output is a written migration scope, a field mapping spreadsheet, and a confirmed export delivery timeline from Divalto weavy or the customer's manual export.

  2. Custom field schema creation in Freshsales

    We create all Freshsales custom fields before any data is imported. This includes custom fields for Development Studio non-standard fields, a divalto_id__c field on each standard object for source-record traceability, and any custom fields needed to preserve Divalto weavy profile assignments (Standard, Sales, Technician, Full) that have no Freshsales equivalent. Custom fields are created via Freshsales Settings before migration tooling runs, so the import process can write directly to typed fields without post-load migration corrections.

  3. Vendor export validation and transformation

    We validate the Divalto weavy export against the discovery field list, flagging any missing fields, unexpected data types, or duplicate records. We transform field values to match Freshsales formats: date normalization, email validation, phone number formatting, and picklist value mapping for status and source fields. Any records that fail validation are logged to a pre-load error report for the customer to review and correct before the import phase begins.

  4. Sandbox import and reconciliation

    We run a full migration into a Freshsales test environment using production-like data volume. The customer reconciles record counts (Accounts in, Contacts in, Leads in, Deals in, Activities in), spot-checks 25-50 records against the Divalto weavy source, and validates that custom field data is populating correctly. Any mapping corrections are applied to the transformation scripts before production migration begins. This step prevents post-go-live data corrections that are disruptive and costly.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order: Accounts (from Companies), Contacts (with AccountId resolved), Leads (with status split applied), Deals (with OwnerId and pipeline stage resolved), Activities (Tasks and Events via REST API with chunking and retry on rate-limit responses). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Delta records created during the migration window are captured in a final delta pass before cutover.

  6. Cutover, validation, and Development Studio inventory delivery

    We freeze writes in Divalto weavy during cutover, run the final delta migration, then hand off Freshsales as the system of record. We deliver a written inventory of all Development Studio workflows and custom configurations that require rebuild in Freshsales, with each item mapped to a recommended Freshsales equivalent (workflow rules, deal stages, custom fields). We support a three-day post-cutover window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Development Studio configurations as Freshsales workflows inside the migration scope.

Most migrations land between three and five weeks for accounts under 10,000 Contacts and 2,000 Deals with no Development Studio custom objects. Migrations involving Development Studio custom fields, large activity histories, or multi-phase vendor export coordination move to six to ten weeks because of the manual export dependency, custom field schema work, and reconciliation rounds. The vendor export coordination step alone can take one to two weeks depending on Divalto weavy support responsiveness.
