Overview
Flexie CRM and HubSpot CRM both model contacts, companies, and deals, but they structure them differently. Flexie stores lifecycle data as a contact property with stage-based progression, while HubSpot uses the lifecycle_stage property as its primary lead-to-customer signal across the entire CRM. HubSpot models deals inside named pipelines with stage pick-list values that vary per pipeline; Flexie typically uses a simpler stage field. The migration carries every Flexie standard object (contacts, companies, deals, tasks, notes) plus all custom fields into HubSpot custom properties or equivalent built-in fields. We resolve Flexie owners by email match against HubSpot users so deal ownership is clean at go-live. One structural difference: Flexie workflows, sequences, and automation rules do not migrate — they must be rebuilt inside HubSpot's automation engine using the exported definitions we deliver alongside the data. Our migration engine uses HubSpot's Contacts API, Companies API, Deals API, and Line Items API in parallel where possible, with bulk import for high-volume record sets to stay within HubSpot's rate limits. A delta-pickup window captures any Flexie records modified during the 48–72 hour cutover window.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Flexie object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Flexie
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1Flexie contacts migrate directly to HubSpot contacts without any transformation required for core name, email, phone, and address fields. The Flexie owner field resolves by email match to a HubSpot user; if no matching HubSpot user exists, the contact assigns to a fallback owner designated by your team before migration begins. All custom properties on the Flexie contact map to HubSpot custom properties on the corresponding contact record.
Flexie
Company
HubSpot
Company
1:1Flexie companies map to HubSpot companies on a field-for-field basis. Parent-child company hierarchies in Flexie map to HubSpot's parent company field, with the parent company record needing to migrate before the child. Multi-company associations on a single Flexie contact collapse to HubSpot's primary company association plus additional secondary company associations tracked in the association table.
Flexie
Deal
HubSpot
Deal
1:1Flexie deals map to HubSpot deals with pipeline and stage mapping handled through value mapping per stage name. Each Flexie deal pipeline becomes a HubSpot pipeline object that must be created before migration runs. Stage names in Flexie map value-by-value to corresponding HubSpot stage names defined in the target pipeline, preserving deal progression logic across both platforms.
Flexie
Line Item
HubSpot
Line Item
1:1Flexie deal line items map to HubSpot line items with each line item associating to a HubSpot deal via the deal_id foreign key. Products referenced in Flexie line items must either exist in HubSpot or are created as part of the migration process. Quantity, price, and tax information from Flexie line items transfer to corresponding HubSpot line item fields.
Flexie
Task
HubSpot
Engagement (Task)
1:1Flexie tasks map to HubSpot engagements with type set to task. Original Flexie task timestamps, owners, and subject lines are preserved during migration. Task completion status (completed or pending) maps to HubSpot's engagement metadata fields, maintaining the original task workflow state in the destination system.
Flexie
Call
HubSpot
Engagement (Call)
1:1Flexie call records migrate as HubSpot call engagements with all call metadata preserved. Call disposition, duration, and outcome values recorded in Flexie map to corresponding HubSpot call metadata fields. Original Flexie call timestamps and recording links transfer to HubSpot's engagement properties.
Flexie
HubSpot
Engagement (Email)
1:1Flexie logged emails migrate as HubSpot email engagements with full metadata preservation. Subject line, body content, email direction (sent or received), and thread references map to HubSpot engagement properties. Attachments re-upload to HubSpot file storage and attach to the corresponding engagement record.
Flexie
Meeting
HubSpot
Engagement (Meeting)
1:1Flexie meeting records map to HubSpot meeting engagements with original scheduling details intact. Meeting start time, duration, timezone, and attendee list preserve in HubSpot's meeting engagement properties. Each migrated meeting links to the associated Flexie contact or deal record via HubSpot's association API.
Flexie
Note
HubSpot
Note
1:1Flexie notes migrate to HubSpot notes with complete body content preserved. Associated record type and original Flexie create date transfer to HubSpot's note properties. Rich-text formatting in Flexie notes converts to HubSpot's note body HTML format, maintaining visual structure like bold, italic, lists, and hyperlinks.
Flexie
Custom Object
HubSpot
Custom Object
1:1Flexie custom objects map one-to-one to HubSpot custom objects, which are available on HubSpot Enterprise subscription tiers. Custom object schemas must be pre-created in HubSpot before migration runs using the schema setup plan we deliver. Flexie custom object associations that use many-to-many relationships require HubSpot junction objects, which we specify in the migration planning phase.
Flexie
Custom Field (on any object)
HubSpot
Custom Property (on corresponding HubSpot object)
1:1Every Flexie custom field becomes a HubSpot custom property on the mapped object during migration. Supported Flexie field types include text, number, date, pick-list, boolean, and currency, each mapping to HubSpot equivalents. Multi-select pick-lists in Flexie map to HubSpot multi-checkbox properties, while single-select pick-lists convert to HubSpot select properties.
Flexie
Workflow / Automation
HubSpot
Workflow (exported definition only)
1:1Flexie workflow and automation rules do not migrate as executable logic because HubSpot and Flexie use different automation engines with distinct trigger types, condition operators, and action sets. We export the complete Flexie workflow definition as a structured JSON reference document that includes all trigger types, filter conditions, action sequences, and Flexie-specific field names for your HubSpot admin to rebuild inside HubSpot's workflow tool.
Flexie
Sequence / Email Template
HubSpot
Sequence (not migrated)
1:1Flexie email sequences and templates do not transfer to HubSpot sequences because the sequence enrollment data and template references are not compatible between platforms. We export Flexie sequence definitions including step timing, email templates, and enrollment criteria as a rebuild reference. HubSpot sequences require your sales team to manually re-enroll contacts after migration completes.
Flexie
Report / Dashboard
HubSpot
Report (not migrated)
1:1Flexie reports and dashboards do not migrate because report configurations are tied to Flexie's schema and visualization engine. The underlying data (contacts, companies, deals, custom properties) transfers completely, but each report must be rebuilt in HubSpot's reporting tool. We deliver a comprehensive data dictionary mapping Flexie field names to HubSpot property names so your admin can reconstruct reports with identical field references.
Flexie
Attachment / File
HubSpot
File
1:1Flexie file attachments on contacts, companies, deals, or notes re-upload to HubSpot Files and associate to the corresponding record using HubSpot's file manager API. Files are linked to the correct record by matching the Flexie attachment record ID to the HubSpot file association. Files exceeding HubSpot's 25MB per-file limit are identified during the audit phase and handled via external storage links.

Migration approach
Extract Flexie data via API and audit field inventory
We connect to Flexie using your API credentials and extract all standard objects (contacts, companies, deals, tasks, notes) plus every custom field definition and associated metadata. We produce a comprehensive data audit report listing record counts per object, custom field names and types, pipeline names, and stage values for every Flexie pipeline. This audit identifies all schema setup work needed in HubSpot before any data movement begins.
Deliver HubSpot schema setup checklist and pre-create custom properties
Based on the Flexie field inventory, we deliver a detailed HubSpot schema setup checklist specifying which custom properties to create, what property types to use, and which pipeline objects to configure in HubSpot. Your HubSpot admin creates these properties and pipelines before migration runs. We validate the setup by probing the HubSpot API to confirm each property exists before triggering the data load phase.
Map Flexie owners to HubSpot users by email match
Flexie owner IDs are resolved against HubSpot users by matching the owner email address from Flexie to the email address of HubSpot portal users. We generate a complete owner resolution report listing all matched owners, all unmatched owners, and the fallback owner assigned to records without a match. Your team confirms the fallback owner and decides whether to invite unmatched Flexie users to HubSpot before migration or accept the fallback assignment.
Run sample migration with field-level diff before full data movement
A representative sample (typically 200–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities) migrates first. We generate a field-level diff between the Flexie source values and the HubSpot destination values for each record so you can verify pipeline mapping, stage mapping, custom property population, and owner resolution. You review the diff and approve the sample before the full migration run commits to the destination.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window and rollback plan
Full migration runs using HubSpot's bulk import API for high-volume objects and the Contacts, Companies, and Deals API for records requiring individual processing. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours after initial load) captures any Flexie records created or modified during the cutover period. Our migration audit log records every operation performed. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation against the Flexie source reveals a discrepancy above your agreed tolerance threshold.
