Overview
Enkrypt Legal-PRO centers on a secure client-messaging platform with matter management, client portals, and document exchange — its data model stores Contacts (as Clients), Matters (as Cases), Document metadata, and communication logs. Zoho CRM models the same relationships across its Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Deals, and Cases modules using API field names like First_Name, Last_Name, Email, Phone, and Account_Name, with a separate Cases module that mirrors legal-matter tracking. The migration carries client records, matter records, activity history, and custom fields into Zoho's equivalent modules. Enkrypt workflows and automated client-update sequences have no Zoho equivalent and must be rebuilt using Zoho Blueprint or custom functions. We use Zoho's REST API v8 with bulk endpoints to move records in dependency order — Accounts first, then Contacts, then Cases, then activity logs — with API credit budgeting based on your Zoho plan tier. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any records modified in Enkrypt during the cutover before you go live on Zoho.
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 Enkrypt Legal-PRO object lands in Zoho 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
Zoho CRM
Contact + Account
1:1Enkrypt Client records map 1:1 to Zoho Contacts, with the client company name stored in Zoho Account.Name via a lookup. If Enkrypt stores multiple contacts per client firm, each contact becomes a separate Zoho Contact linked to the same Account.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Client Email / Phone
Zoho CRM
Contact Email + Phone
1:1Primary email address and primary phone number on the Enkrypt Client record map directly to Zoho Contact.Email and Contact.Phone through our standard field mapping. Any secondary phone numbers, alternate contact numbers, or additional communication channels stored in Enkrypt require a custom field created on the Zoho Contact module. We document these secondary contact fields in the schema plan for your admin to configure before migration.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Matter
Zoho CRM
Case (or Custom Module: Matters)
1:1Enkrypt Matter records map to Zoho Cases for support-style tracking, or to a custom 'Matters' module if your firm needs a more law-specific structure. We match on Matter ID and client lookup to ensure the Case links to the correct Zoho Contact.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Matter Status
Zoho CRM
Case.Status
1:1Enkrypt matter lifecycle statuses—typically Active, Pending, Closed, and On-Hold—map to corresponding Zoho Case.Status pick-list values through our standard value-mapping process. Any custom status values defined in your Enkrypt configuration (such as Under Review, Awaiting Signature, or Litigation Hold) require new pick-list entries to be created in Zoho's Case module before migration executes. We identify all custom statuses during the schema audit and include them in the schema plan for your admin to configure.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Document / File Attachment
Zoho CRM
Attachments (linked to Contact or Case)
1:1Enkrypt document metadata and file attachments are re-uploaded to Zoho as record attachments on the corresponding Contact or Case record, maintaining the original file names and upload timestamps. Zoho's standard file size limits apply—25MB per file by default—and any documents exceeding this limit are flagged during the migration audit and set aside for manual review. Your migration team can then decide whether to compress and re-upload oversized files, store them in an integrated document management system, or adjust Zoho's file size settings.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Secure Message Log
Zoho CRM
Notes on Contact or Case
1:1Enkrypt encrypted message threads are processed to preserve sender identification, timestamp, and message body content as Zoho Notes attached to the linked Contact or Case record. The original encryption status is preserved by storing an encryption flag as a custom Note field (Is_Encrypted__c) for compliance reference and audit purposes. If decryption is available from the Enkrypt export, the decrypted message body is stored in the Note content; otherwise, the record includes a placeholder with a manual-review task.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Appointment / Calendar Event
Zoho CRM
Event (linked to Contact or Case)
1:1Enkrypt appointments and calendar events migrate as Zoho Events, preserving the original start time, end time, subject line, and attendee information. Attendees are linked to their corresponding Zoho Contact records via email matching. Owner assignment for each migrated Event is resolved by matching the Enkrypt appointment creator's email address to their Zoho User account. Any unmatched creators are flagged for your admin to assign to a fallback owner before the migration run completes.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Billing / Trust Record
Zoho CRM
Custom Field on Case + Notes
1:1Enkrypt trust accounting and billing records have no native Zoho CRM equivalent, requiring custom field configuration. We migrate key financial data—including current billing balance, last payment date, trust account status, and billing arrangement type—as custom fields on the Case record. Detailed transaction history, including deposits, withdrawals, and disbursements, is preserved as Notes on the Case with a Trust_Transaction__c marker. Full financial reconciliation capabilities require Zoho Books integration as a separate post-migration step.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
Custom Matter Field
Zoho CRM
Custom Field on Case
1:1Any Enkrypt custom fields configured on Matter records—such as opposing counsel details, court jurisdiction, statute of limitations dates, or billing arrangement type—are created as custom fields on the Zoho Cases module during migration. Our process preserves the exact data type for each custom field: pick-list fields retain their value options, date fields maintain date formatting, text fields preserve character limits, and number/currency fields keep decimal precision. The complete custom field schema is documented in the Zoho schema plan for admin approval before data migration begins.
Enkrypt Legal-PRO
User / Attorney Owner
Zoho CRM
User lookup on Contact and Case
1:1Enkrypt user IDs and attorney assignments resolve to Zoho Users through email address matching, ensuring proper record ownership after migration. Any attorneys or staff members in Enkrypt who do not have matching email addresses in your Zoho organization are flagged in a pre-migration resolution report. Your Zoho administrator can use this report to invite new users to your Zoho organization, map them to their Enkrypt counterparts, or assign records to a designated fallback owner before migration execution begins.

Migration approach
Export and audit Enkrypt data modules
We extract all standard and custom modules from Enkrypt via CSV export, including Clients, Matters, Documents, Appointments, Message logs, and any custom fields unique to your firm's configuration. Our extraction process captures the complete data structure including field names, data types, and relationships between records. Following extraction, we run a comprehensive data-quality audit that checks for duplicate client records, identifies missing required fields, detects date-format inconsistencies, and flags records with incomplete attorney ownership assignments. The audit results are compiled into a detailed cleansing report that we present to you before the mapping phase begins, allowing your team to address data quality issues proactively.
Design Zoho schema and custom fields
Based on your Enkrypt configuration, we design and create the appropriate Zoho module structure—Contacts, Accounts, and Cases (or a custom Matters module if your firm requires a separate law-specific structure). We configure all custom fields with correct data types, including text fields, date fields, pick-lists, currency fields, and checkbox fields, ensuring each matches the corresponding Enkrypt field specification. Pick-list values for status, priority, billing type, and any other taxonomy fields are replicated to match your Enkrypt taxonomies exactly. Before any data loads into the sandbox environment, we deliver a comprehensive Zoho schema plan documenting the complete module structure, field configurations, and pick-list values for your admin to review, validate, and finalize.
Resolve attorney owners by email match
We build a comprehensive owner-resolution map by matching Enkrypt user email addresses to existing Zoho User accounts. This process ensures that each Enkrypt attorney, paralegal, and staff member is correctly linked to their corresponding Zoho User record, preserving proper ownership attribution across all migrated Cases and Contacts. Any attorneys in Enkrypt who do not have matching Zoho User accounts are flagged in the resolution map with a fallback-owner recommendation—typically a supervising attorney or firm administrator. Your Zoho administrator reviews and confirms the owner-resolution map before the migration run executes, and can invite new users directly from the map interface if needed, ensuring no Case or Contact record lands without a designated owner.
Run sandbox migration with field-level diff
We load a statistically representative sample of records—typically 100–300 records spanning Clients, Matters, Documents, Appointments, and message logs—into your Zoho sandbox environment. This sandbox migration tests the complete migration pipeline in a safe, non-production context. We then generate a comprehensive field-level diff report that compares each Enkrypt source value against the corresponding Zoho destination value, highlighting any discrepancies, truncated data, or mapping issues. This report allows you to verify matter-status mapping accuracy, confirm custom field population, validate document attachment links, and review how encrypted message threads are represented. You approve the sandbox results before we commit to the full migration execution.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full migration runs in dependency order (Accounts → Contacts → Cases → Documents → Events → Notes) using Zoho's bulk API endpoints. A 24–48 hour delta-pickup window after the main run captures any records created or modified in Enkrypt during cutover. We generate an audit log of every record inserted, updated, or skipped, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation reveals mapping errors.
