Overview
Migrating from eZnet CRM to Salesforce Sales Cloud is a transition from a compact, budget-oriented CRM with limited tooling visibility to the market's most widely deployed sales platform. eZnet CRM organizes data around Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, and Activities with a per-user record cap on Standard tier and an all-in-one sales-marketing-support bundle. Salesforce Sales Cloud uses a separate Lead and Contact model, unlimited Opportunity pipelines via Record Types and Sales Processes, and a 9,000-plus AppExchange ecosystem. The primary technical challenge on this migration path is eZnet CRM's lack of a publicly documented API, which means we must assess available CSV export mechanisms and file-based transfer options during discovery before committing to a data extraction approach. We map eZnet record types to their Salesforce equivalents, resolve Account-Contact and Opportunity-Account lookups at migration time, and use the Salesforce Bulk API for activity history. Workflows, sequences, automations, and marketing campaign configurations do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild in Salesforce Flow.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a eZnet CRM 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.
eZnet CRM
Account
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1eZnet CRM Account records map directly to Salesforce Account. The Account Name, Website, Industry, Phone, Billing Address, and any custom fields migrate as-is. We use Account Name as the primary dedupe key during import and resolve any orphaned records before Contact migration begins. If eZnet CRM stores parent-child account hierarchies, we map the parent Account reference to Salesforce's Parent Account lookup field.
eZnet CRM
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1eZnet CRM Contact records map to Salesforce Contact with AccountId resolved at migration time via email-domain or name matching against the Account table. Standard fields (FirstName, LastName, Email, Phone, Title, MailingAddress) migrate directly. Custom contact fields from eZnet CRM (available on Standard and above) are recreated in Salesforce as custom fields on Contact before import.
eZnet CRM
Lead
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead
1:1eZnet CRM Lead records with status values of New, Contacted, Qualified, or Unqualified map to Salesforce Lead with LeadSource, Status, and custom lead fields preserved. eZnet CRM does not distinguish a separate lead-to-contact conversion step, so we carry the eZnet lead status as a custom field eznet_lead_status__c for the customer's admin to use in Salesforce lead assignment rules post-migration.
eZnet CRM
Opportunity
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1eZnet CRM Opportunity records map to Salesforce Opportunity with StageName, Amount, CloseDate, Description, and OwnerId resolved. We capture eZnet's pipeline stage order and win/loss definitions and configure corresponding Salesforce Stage values and probabilities in a Sales Process before migration. Opportunity Record Type is set to a default sales Record Type unless the customer requests multiple pipelines mapped to multiple Record Types.
eZnet CRM
Pipeline
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Record Type + Sales Process
lossyeZnet CRM Opportunity pipelines (if multiple are configured on the source) map to Salesforce Opportunity Record Types with corresponding Sales Processes that whitelist stage values per pipeline. Stage probability percentages migrate from eZnet to Salesforce StageProbability. We configure this in a Salesforce Sandbox before production migration to validate that the stage mapping reflects the customer's actual sales motion.
eZnet CRM
Activities (Calls)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task (TaskSubtype = Call)
1:1eZnet CRM call Activity records map to Salesforce Task with TaskSubtype=Call. Call disposition, duration (CallDurationInSeconds), and any notes migrate to custom fields on Task. WhoId on the Task resolves to the migrated Contact or Lead; ActivityDate preserves the original timestamp for timeline ordering.
eZnet CRM
Activities (Emails)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
EmailMessage + Task
1:1eZnet CRM email Activity records map to Salesforce EmailMessage (the message content and headers) linked to a Task (the activity timeline entry). The email body, subject, from/to addresses, and timestamp migrate. WhoId on the Task resolves to the migrated Contact or Lead. Email is available as a Professional-tier feature in eZnet CRM, so we confirm email data volume during discovery before sizing this phase.
eZnet CRM
Activities (Tasks and Events)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task and Event
1:1eZnet CRM task Activity records map to Salesforce Task with Status, Priority, Subject, and ActivityDate preserved. eZnet CRM event Activity records map to Salesforce Event with StartDateTime, EndDateTime, and Location preserved. Both map to the migrated Contact, Account, or Opportunity via WhatId and WhoId lookup resolution at migration time.
eZnet CRM
Document Library
Salesforce Sales Cloud
ContentDocument + ContentVersion
1:1eZnet CRM Document Library metadata (file name, description, created date, owner) migrates as Salesforce ContentVersion records linked to the parent Account or Contact via ContentDocumentLink. The actual file blobs require separate handling: we export the files from eZnet, upload them to Salesforce Files, and link them to the related records. This phase is flagged during scoping because file blob extraction from eZnet may require manual steps depending on available export mechanisms.
eZnet CRM
Custom Fields
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Fields
lossyeZnet CRM custom fields (available on Standard tier and above) are captured with their data type, picklist values, visibility settings, and related-to object during schema review. We pre-create Salesforce custom fields of equivalent type before any data import. Multi-select picklists, date fields, currency fields, and formula fields each require Salesforce-specific field type selection. The customer reviews and approves the field mapping document before schema deployment.
eZnet CRM
Marketing Campaigns
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Campaign + CampaignMember
1:1eZnet CRM Marketing Campaign records with associated campaign members migrate to Salesforce Campaign. Campaign Name, Type, Status, StartDate, and BudgetedCost map to Campaign fields. Campaign members with their Contact or Lead associations migrate to CampaignMember records with Status values (Sent, Responded, Clicked) mapped from eZnet's campaign member statuses.
eZnet CRM
Inventory Items
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Product2 + PricebookEntry
1:1eZnet CRM Inventory Items (Professional tier and above) map to Salesforce Product2 records with Standard Price Book entries created during import. Item name, SKU, description, and pricing fields migrate. Customers using Salesforce CPQ may require additional Pricebook2 configuration beyond the Standard Pricebook.
eZnet CRM
Users / Owner
Salesforce Sales Cloud
User
1:1eZnet CRM User records with role-based assignments and security profiles are exported and mapped to Salesforce User records by email match. Owner references on Opportunities, Activities, and Contacts resolve to the Salesforce User Id. Any eZnet User without a matching Salesforce User is held in a reconciliation queue; the customer's Salesforce admin provisions missing Users before record import resumes.
eZnet CRM
Custom Modules
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Object (__c)
lossyeZnet CRM Custom Modules (Enterprise tier) represent non-standard record types that may have no direct Salesforce equivalent. We capture the full module schema including module fields, related lists, and relationships to standard records. Each module becomes a Salesforce custom object with __c API name matching the module label, custom fields recreated in Salesforce, and lookup relationships to Account, Contact, or Opportunity configured before data import.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export mechanism assessment
We audit eZnet CRM across tier (Standard/Professional/Enterprise/Private Cloud), total record counts per object type, custom field schema, active module list, document volume, and available export mechanisms. The absence of a public API on eZnet CRM means we specifically assess CSV export capability, file download tooling, and Private Cloud database access during this phase. We pair this with a Salesforce edition recommendation: Professional ($80/user) covers most migrations; Enterprise ($165/user) is required for advanced Flow, territory management, or multiple sales processes. The discovery output is a written migration scope with confirmed export approach, record counts, and a Salesforce edition recommendation.
Schema design and custom field reconstruction
We design the Salesforce destination schema before any data moves. This includes pre-creating custom fields on Account, Contact, Lead, and Opportunity to match eZnet CRM's custom field schema, configuring Opportunity Record Types and Sales Processes per eZnet pipeline, and provisioning any custom objects (__c) for eZnet Custom Modules. Schema is deployed into a Salesforce Sandbox first for validation by the customer's Salesforce admin. Field type mapping is reviewed and approved before metadata deployment: eZnet picklists become Salesforce picklists, eZnet dates become Salesforce dates, eZnet currency becomes Salesforce currency (with currency ISO code), and eZnet multi-select fields become Salesforce multi-select picklists.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Salesforce Sandbox (Full Copy or Partial Copy) with production-like data volume to validate the schema, field mapping, and lookup resolution. The customer's Salesforce admin reviews record counts across all objects, spot-checks 25-50 records against the eZnet CRM source for field-level accuracy, and signs off the mapping before production migration begins. Any field type corrections, missing picklist values, or lookup resolution failures are addressed in Sandbox, not in production.
Owner and User reconciliation
We extract every distinct eZnet CRM User referenced as an owner on Account, Contact, Opportunity, or Activity records and match by email against the destination Salesforce org's User table. Any eZnet User without a matching Salesforce User is held in a reconciliation queue. The customer's Salesforce admin provisions missing Users (active for current team members, inactive for historical owners) before record import resumes. Migration cannot proceed past this step because OwnerId is required on most standard Salesforce objects.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Users (validated), Accounts (from eZnet CRM Accounts), Contacts (with AccountId resolved), Leads (with eZnet status preserved in custom field), Opportunities (with AccountId, OwnerId, and RecordTypeId resolved), Products and Pricebook entries, Inventory Items, Activity history (Tasks, Events, EmailMessages via Bulk API 2.0), Campaigns and CampaignMembers, Documents (Files linked via ContentDocumentLink), and Custom Objects (last, because they often have lookups to standard objects). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.
Cutover, delta sync, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze eZnet CRM writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of records modified during the migration window, then enable Salesforce as the system of record. We deliver the workflow, automation, and campaign configuration inventory document to the customer's admin team with recommended Salesforce Flow equivalents for each. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild eZnet CRM automations as Salesforce Flow inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement or an internal admin task.
