Overview

What this migration involves

Enkrypt Legal-PRO organizes legal practices around clients, matters, and secure communications, with time tracking and trust accounting built into the platform. Twenty CRM models contacts as People, organizations as Companies, and legal matters as Opportunities with customizable stage pipelines. The migration carries client records, matter histories, and activity logs into Twenty's object structure while handling the structural differences: Enkrypt's matters map to Opportunities, its secure messages migrate to Notes or custom objects, and its billing and trust accounting records require custom field reconstruction in Twenty. We use a CSV-import-first approach with API batch upserts for large datasets, with scoped read access on Enkrypt Legal-PRO and a delta-pickup window capturing any records modified during cutover. Workflows and automations are not transferred — those require rebuilding in Twenty's workflow builder, and we provide the Enkrypt configuration export as a reference for your rebuild. Each matter's historical status progression and attorney assignments transfer completely to maintain complete case context.

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

Enkrypt Legal-PRO logo

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

What's pushing teams away

  • The platform is primarily positioned for criminal law practices, so general civil or transactional firms find the workflow templates misaligned with their case types.
  • Limited third-party integrations beyond basic calendaring mean firms using multiple specialized tools face data silos that require manual re-entry.
  • Smokeball and Clio dominate the legal practice management market with larger ecosystems, more robust reporting, and stronger network effects for referrals.

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 Enkrypt Legal-PRO objects map to Twenty CRM

Each row shows how a Enkrypt Legal-PRO 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.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Client

maps to

Twenty CRM

People

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt Legal-PRO clients map directly to Twenty People records. Email matching resolves the primary contact for each client. Phone numbers, addresses, and job titles migrate as direct field mappings. Enkrypt client IDs are preserved as Source_System_ID__c for traceability. We also handle any associated notes or activity history attached to the client record during migration.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Firm / Organization

maps to

Twenty CRM

Companies

1:1
Fully supported

If Enkrypt Legal-PRO stores law firm or client organization details separately from the client contact, those map to Twenty Companies. Company domain maps to Website. Industry pick-list values require value mapping against Twenty's industry options. Any associated contacts or matters linked to the organization are properly associated in Twenty's data model.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Matter

maps to

Twenty CRM

Opportunity

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt Legal-PRO matters are the primary deal-like entity. They map to Twenty Opportunities with the matter name as the opportunity name, billing amount as the amount, and matter status mapped to Opportunity stage values. Attorney assignments resolve by email to Twenty workspace members.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Matter Status

maps to

Twenty CRM

Opportunity Stage

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt matter status values (Active, Pending, Closed, On Hold) map one-by-one to Twenty Opportunity stage values. The mapping plan is defined during the schema setup phase. Probability and forecast category re-applied from Twenty's stage configuration. Historical status change dates are preserved for audit continuity.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Secure Message

maps to

Twenty CRM

Note

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt's secure client communications have no native equivalent in Twenty. They migrate as Notes on the associated People record, with the message body in the Note body and metadata (sender, timestamp) preserved in custom fields. Client can choose to collapse all messages into one summary Note or preserve each as separate.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Time Entry

maps to

Twenty CRM

Task

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt Legal-PRO time entries (attorney time logged against a matter) map to Twenty Tasks. The time duration becomes a custom Number field on the Task. Description maps to the Task body. Tasks link to the related Opportunity for billing context.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Document / Attachment

maps to

Twenty CRM

File / Note Attachment

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt Legal-PRO document attachments on matters re-upload to Twenty Files attached to the corresponding Opportunity record. File size limits from Twenty apply (25MB default). Inline document previews preserved where Enkrypt supported them. We handle all file types including contracts, evidence, and case materials with metadata preservation.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Calendar Event / Appointment

maps to

Twenty CRM

Task

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt appointments map to Twenty Tasks with due dates and assignees preserved. For calendar sync, Twenty supports webhook integrations with external calendar tools post-migration — appointments themselves do not migrate as native calendar events. We capture meeting times, locations, attendees, and agendas in the Task record for complete appointment context.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Custom Field: Practice Area

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Select Field

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt matter-level practice area values (Family Law, Criminal Defense, etc.) require a custom select field created in Twenty Settings → Data Model before import. Values mapped one-by-one. We preserve all practice area classifications including any subcategories or specialty designations from your Enkrypt setup.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Custom Field: Court Information

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Text Field

1:1
Fully supported

Court names, case numbers, and judge assignments stored as custom text fields in Enkrypt migrate to custom text fields on the Opportunity record. If multiple court-related fields exist, they consolidate into a structured set of custom fields. Historical court assignments and past case references are preserved alongside current matter details for complete case context.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Trust Accounting Record

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Object / Custom Fields

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt trust account balances and transaction history have no direct Twenty CRM equivalent. We preserve trust data as a custom object (Trust_Transactions__c) with fields for amount, type (deposit/withdrawal), and matter reference. Financial reconciliation must be handled separately from Twenty's standard features.

Enkrypt Legal-PRO

Billing / Invoice Status

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Select Field

1:1
Fully supported

Enkrypt invoice status values (Draft, Sent, Paid, Overdue) require a custom select field on the Opportunity. These do not generate invoices in Twenty — billing is out-of-scope for the CRM and should continue in a dedicated legal billing platform. We maintain the invoice status history for reference and ensure all past billing information transfers completely.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Secure messaging has no native equivalent in Twenty CRM

    Enkrypt Legal-PRO's encrypted client communications are a core product feature. Twenty CRM has no secure messaging or client portal construct — it stores general Notes on People records. We preserve the message content in Notes attached to the client, but the encryption model, read receipts, and client-accessible portal do not transfer. Clients will need access to a separate communication channel after migration, and the secure message history should be reviewed for retention policy compliance.

  • Trust accounting and billing records require custom object reconstruction

    Enkrypt Legal-PRO includes trust account balances, transaction histories, and invoice status as native matter properties. Twenty CRM has no financial tracking capability — there is no native invoice, payment, or trust accounting object. We preserve billing amounts on Opportunities and create a custom Trust_Transactions__c object for transaction history, but reconciliation and billing generation must continue in a dedicated legal accounting platform. FlitStack can export the trust account data as a standalone CSV for import into your billing system.

  • Custom fields must exist in Twenty before CSV import runs

    Enkrypt Legal-PRO practice-area pick-lists, court information fields, and billing type fields are custom properties. Twenty's CSV import creates records, not fields — all custom fields must be created in Settings → Data Model before the import executes. We deliver a schema setup plan specifying field names, types, and pick-list values that your Twenty admin creates in advance. Fields missing at import time cause the corresponding column to error out, preventing that record batch from loading.

  • Matter stages require value-by-value mapping, not direct mapping

    Enkrypt Legal-PRO uses matter status values (Active, Pending, On Hold, Closed) that have no direct equivalent in Twenty's Opportunity stage model. Twenty stages are defined per pipeline and the stage name strings must match exactly. We map each Enkrypt status to a corresponding Twenty stage name — if your Enkrypt workspace uses non-standard status labels, each one must be explicitly mapped. The mapping plan is delivered during the schema setup phase.

  • Twenty's 20,000-record export limit applies per object type

    Twenty's CSV export caps at 20,000 records per export operation. For Enkrypt workspaces with large activity histories (thousands of notes or tasks per matter), multiple export passes are required, and the data must be concatenated before import. We plan export batches by object type during the audit phase to ensure no data is truncated and the import order preserves referential integrity. This approach prevents orphaned records and maintains proper relationships between People, Companies, and Opportunities.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Enkrypt Legal-PRO to Twenty CRM data migration

  1. Audit Enkrypt Legal-PRO data and export in record order

    FlitStack AI reviews your Enkrypt Legal-PRO data model, identifies all active clients, matters, custom fields, and activity records. We export each object type separately in the order required by Twenty's import constraints: Companies first, then People (linked to companies), then Opportunities (linked to people), then Tasks and Notes. The audit surfaces any non-standard status labels, missing required fields, and custom field definitions that need pre-migration setup in Twenty.

  2. Create Twenty workspace and pre-build custom fields

    Before any data moves, your Twenty admin creates the custom fields identified in the audit: Practice_Area__c, Court_Info__c, Billing_Type__c, Invoice_Status__c, Trust_Transactions__c, and any other Enkrypt custom properties. We deliver a schema setup plan specifying field names, types, and pick-list values. Workspace members must be invited and active so owner email matching resolves correctly during import. All custom fields must be created in Settings → Data Model before the CSV import runs.

  3. Resolve attorneys and users by email to Twenty members

    Enkrypt attorney assignments, time entry owners, and note authors are matched to Twenty workspace members by email address. Unmatched users are flagged before migration — your team either creates the user in Twenty first or assigns records to a fallback member. No record lands in Twenty without a valid assignee. This ensures attorney accountability and proper task ownership throughout the migrated dataset.

  4. Run sample migration with field-level diff

    A representative slice of records migrates first — typically 100–500 records spanning clients, companies, matters, time entries, and notes. We generate a field-level diff between Enkrypt source values and Twenty destination values so you can verify stage mapping, custom field population, attorney assignment, and trust account field preservation before the full run commits. This validation step catches mapping errors before they affect your entire dataset.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window

    Full migration runs against Twenty using CSV import with API batch upserts for large objects. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any records modified in Enkrypt during the cutover. Audit logs capture every operation. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation fails. Post-migration, we validate record counts, field accuracy, and relationship integrity between People, Companies, and Opportunities. Final validation reports confirm all data arrived correctly.

Platform deep dives

Context on both ends of the pair

Source

Strengths

  • Secure messaging-first design purpose-built for attorney-client communication with automatic notifications on case changes.
  • Account bundling allows multiple related matters under a single client account, simplifying data hierarchy for multi-case clients.
  • Trust accounting and credit reporting features support financial compliance for law practice operations.
  • Free trial and low per-user pricing make it accessible for solo practitioners and small firms to evaluate fit.
  • 24/7 support coverage with multiple channels including live chat, phone, and knowledge base.

Weaknesses

  • Primarily marketed toward criminal law, limiting applicability for civil, corporate, or transactional practices.
  • Minimal public API documentation makes automated data export and third-party integrations difficult to build.
  • Limited ecosystem and fewer integrations compared to established competitors like Clio, MyCase, or Smokeball.
  • Data export capabilities are not clearly documented, which creates risk for firms that need to extract their data for compliance or archival purposes.

Strengths

  • AGPL-3.0 open-source license with full source code on GitHub — no vendor lock-in, no sunset risk.
  • Unlimited users and unlimited custom objects on self-hosted, with no feature gating based on headcount.
  • REST and GraphQL APIs available on all paid tiers, not locked behind an enterprise add-on fee.
  • MCP server and webhooks shipped as standard features, not premium upgrades.
  • Modern PostgreSQL-backed data model that developer teams can query, extend, and self-host.

Weaknesses

  • Recent v1.0 release means limited production hardening compared to CRMs with multi-year operational track records.
  • No native email sequencing or sales engagement tools — follow-up cadences require a separate platform.
  • No native two-way email sync or inbox integration, requiring third-party connectors for full activity logging.
  • Self-hosting 'free' pricing hides real infrastructure and DevOps costs that stack up over time.
  • Workflow automation is functional but lacks the complexity needed for sophisticated multi-step sales motions.
