Overview

What this migration involves

Jobsite Mobile stores contacts, companies, deals, and activities in a straightforward CRM model with custom fields and one active pipeline. Freshsales uses a similar object structure (Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Deals, Activities) but differentiates with its lifecycle-stage model, Freddy AI scoring, and a tiered feature gate where custom modules require the Enterprise plan. The migration carries every standard object and custom field from Jobsite Mobile into Freshsales, reassigning owners by email match and preserving original timestamps. Workflows, automations, and sequences do not transfer — they must be rebuilt in Freshsales Workflows and the Automation tray. We use Jobsite Mobile's export API and CSV endpoints to extract data, validate against a pre-built Freshsales schema, and load via the Freshsales REST API with bulk-mode batching. A 24–48-hour delta window captures any records created or modified during the cutover before we lock the source and finalize. In addition to data extraction, we perform a pre‑migration data‑quality audit that flags duplicate contacts, missing required fields, and malformed date formats. Custom fields are matched to Freshsales field types, and any pick‑list values without an exact Freshsales counterpart are placed in a custom pick‑list for administrator review. Owner resolution follows an email‑lookup against Freshsales users, with any unmatched owners logged for manual assignment before the final load. All records retain their original create and update timestamps, which are preserved in a custom datetime field when the native Freshsales created_at reflects the migration date.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Jobsite Mobile

What's pushing teams away

  • Per-user pricing scales poorly for large field teams — companies with many part-time or seasonal technicians report being priced out as headcount grows.
  • The platform lacks a public API documentation or developer portal, making integrations with accounting software or custom dashboards difficult to maintain.
  • Reporting capabilities are limited to basic summaries; advanced analytics, custom dashboards, and data exports require workarounds or third-party add-ons.
  • Some users report that the web interface is significantly slower than the mobile app, making office-side administration cumbersome.

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 Jobsite Mobile objects map to Freshsales

Each row shows how a Jobsite Mobile 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.

Jobsite Mobile

Contact

maps to

Freshsales

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Direct map. Freshsales Contacts carry associations to Accounts and Deals through built-in links. If a Jobsite Mobile contact has no primary company, it lands as an unlinked Freshsales Contact with the original owner assigned by email match. Standard fields such as name, email, phone, and address map directly to Freshsales Contact fields, and any custom fields are created before migration.

Jobsite Mobile

Company

maps to

Freshsales

Account

1:1
Fully supported

Direct map. Freshsales Accounts serve as the business entity for all person-level records. Jobsite Mobile multi-address companies consolidate to a single Account with the primary address fields mapped; secondary addresses are stored as a custom note for admin review. All standard Account fields (name, domain, industry, phone, billing address) map directly, and any missing values are flagged for manual entry before the migration finalizes.

Jobsite Mobile

Lead

maps to

Freshsales

Lead

1:1
Fully supported

Direct map where Jobsite Mobile stores a distinct lead record. Leads in Freshsales track source, status, and scoring. Jobsite Mobile lead fields map to Freshsales Lead standard fields or to custom fields created during schema setup. Lead status values are translated via a value‑mapping table; unmatched values are stored in a custom pick‑list for admin review. Original created_at timestamps are preserved in a custom datetime field for reporting continuity.

Jobsite Mobile

Deal

maps to

Freshsales

Deal

1:1
Fully supported

Direct map to Freshsales Deal. Pipeline and stage mapping is handled via the pipeline configuration step. Jobsite Mobile deal owner resolves to Freshsales User by email; unmatched owners flag for admin assignment before the full run. Deal amount, close date, and probability map. while deal fields are created as Freshsales deal fields. Stage probability is re‑applied using Freshsales' pipeline model, with probability stored in a custom field for post‑migration workflow.

Jobsite Mobile

Custom Field (Contact-level)

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Field on Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Each Jobsite Mobile custom field on Contact becomes a Freshsales custom contact field. Field type maps to the nearest Freshsales type: text to String, pick-list to Dropdown, number to Number. Enterprise plan is required for advanced custom field types beyond basic types.

Jobsite Mobile

Custom Field (Deal-level)

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Field on Deal

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile deal custom fields map to Freshsales custom deal fields. If Freshsales Pro or Enterprise is the target plan, custom deal fields are supported natively. Growth plan limits custom field count, so we scope custom fields and flag any that exceed plan limits before migration runs.

Jobsite Mobile

Activity / Task

maps to

Freshsales

Task

1:1
Fully supported

Direct map. Jobsite Mobile activities (calls, emails, follow-up tasks) become Freshsales Tasks with original timestamps, owner, and type preserved. Freshsales Task Type pick-list (Call, Email, Follow-up) maps from Jobsite Mobile activity kind field. Task due date, status, and priority map directly, with missing values flagged for admin entry before final load. Activity attachments are downloaded and re‑uploaded as Freshsales Files linked to the parent Task, respecting 25 MB file size limit.

Jobsite Mobile

Note

maps to

Freshsales

Note

1:1
Fully supported

Direct map. Jobsite Mobile notes migrate as Freshsales Notes attached to the parent Contact, Account, or Deal. Rich-text formatting is preserved where the source format maps to Freshsales' supported subset. Notes with no parent record attach to the contact by default.

Jobsite Mobile

Attachment / File

maps to

Freshsales

File

1:1
Fully supported

Files and attachments are downloaded from Jobsite Mobile and re-uploaded to Freshsales Files, linked to the parent record. Freshsales file size limits apply (25 MB default). Inline images in notes are extracted, rehosted, and re-embedded in the migrated note body.

Jobsite Mobile

Custom Object

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Module

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile custom objects require Freshsales Enterprise plan. If the target account is on Pro or below, custom objects are scoped for manual recreation post-migration with the full schema exported as a reference document for your Freshsales admin to rebuild under the Enterprise tier.

Jobsite Mobile

User / Owner

maps to

Freshsales

User

1:1
Fully supported

Owner resolution by email match against Freshsales users. Any Jobsite Mobile owner whose email matches an existing Freshsales user gets assigned directly. Unmatched owners are flagged with the record ID and owner name so your admin can assign a fallback owner before the migration commits.

Jobsite Mobile

Pipeline

maps to

Freshsales

Deal Pipeline

1:1
Fully supported

Each Jobsite Mobile deal pipeline becomes a Freshsales Deal Pipeline. Pipeline stages map stage-by-stage to Freshsales stage names. Probability per stage is re-applied based on Freshsales' probability model. Multiple pipelines in Jobsite Mobile each get their own Freshsales pipeline on Pro and above.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Workflows and automations do not migrate and must be rebuilt in Freshsales Workflows

    Freshsales has its own Workflows module and Automation tray that handle task assignment, stage triggers, and notification routing. Jobsite Mobile workflows are stored as JSON logic in the source platform and have no export path into Freshsales' automation engine. FlitStack AI migrates data only. We provide a workflow audit export — a structured document listing every Jobsite Mobile trigger, condition, and action — that your Freshsales admin uses as a rebuild reference. If Jobsite Mobile used a specific sequence or engagement logic, those rebuild requirements are documented separately in the migration plan before the full run commits.

  • Custom modules require Freshsales Enterprise — plan tier gates this feature

    Freshsales Enterprise plan ($59/user/mo) is required for custom modules beyond the standard objects. Jobsite Mobile custom objects are supported on the platform's standard plan, so a migration to Freshsales Pro or Growth will surface a feature gap. Before migration begins, we audit every Jobsite Mobile custom object and flag each one that requires Freshsales Enterprise provisioning. If the target account is on Pro, we create a custom-object schema document and scope the objects for post-migration manual creation under Enterprise, keeping the rest of the migration on schedule.

  • Freshsales API rate limits cap migration batch size and speed

    Freshsales enforces API rate limits per the Freshworks platform constraints. Bulk operations run in batches to stay within these limits, which affects total migration clock time for large record volumes. We monitor 429 responses and apply exponential backoff between batches. For Jobsite Mobile setups with 100,000+ records, the batch pacing extends the migration window beyond the initial estimate — we communicate this to you before the full run so timeline expectations are set accurately. API polling during delta pickup follows the same limits, which is why we run delta windows of 24–48 hours rather than shorter bursts.

  • Freshsales Growth plan caps custom fields — Enterprise unlocks full schema

    Freshsales Growth plan limits the number of custom fields per object and does not support advanced field types needed for some migrated data. Jobsite Mobile custom fields on contacts, accounts, and deals may exceed Growth plan limits. We audit the Jobsite Mobile schema before migration and flag any field that would exceed the plan cap, providing a custom-field reduction or plan-upgrade recommendation before the migration window opens. Fields that exceed the cap are staged for creation after the account is moved to Pro or Enterprise.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Jobsite Mobile to Freshsales data migration

  1. Stand up Freshsales schema before data moves

    Before we extract a single record, we audit Jobsite Mobile's custom fields, objects, and pipeline configuration. Based on that audit, we build a Freshsales schema setup plan: custom fields created on Contact, Account, and Deal; pipelines and stage names configured in Freshsales; and a determination of which plan tier is required. If Jobsite Mobile has multiple pipelines, we pre-configure each as a separate Freshsales pipeline. We deliver this plan as a checklist so your Freshsales admin can create the schema in advance — the migration validator will not run until the destination schema is in place.

  2. Extract data from Jobsite Mobile and validate

    We pull contacts, accounts, deals, leads, tasks, notes, and files from Jobsite Mobile using the platform's export API endpoints and CSV exports where API coverage is partial. Every record is validated against the source schema: missing required fields, orphaned foreign keys, and malformed data (bad email formats, date strings in the wrong timezone) are flagged in a pre-migration data-quality report. We surface duplicate contacts and companies before migration so your team can de-dupe or accept the merge rule before data lands in Freshsales.

  3. Build field mapping and run a sample migration with field-level diff

    With schema in place and data extracted, we build the field mapping document: standard field matches, value mappings for pick-lists, custom field assignments, and owner resolution rules. A sample migration runs against a representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, accounts, deals, and activities — and we generate a field-level diff showing source value vs. destination value for every mapped field. You review the diff, confirm lifecycle stage mapping and pipeline alignment, and approve the mapping before the full run commits.

  4. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window

    The full migration runs against the Freshsales API with batch pacing to respect rate limits. A 24–48-hour delta-pickup window opens once the initial migration completes, capturing any records created or modified in Jobsite Mobile during the cutover. Your team keeps working in Jobsite Mobile throughout this window. We generate an audit log of every record written to Freshsales, and we run a reconciliation report comparing record counts and field totals between the source export and the destination load. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation reveals a discrepancy your team cannot accept.

  5. Deliver reconciliation report and workflow rebuild reference

    After delta-pickup closes, we deliver the final reconciliation report: record counts by object, field coverage percentage, owner resolution summary, and any records that failed to migrate with root-cause notes. We also deliver the Jobsite Mobile workflow audit as a structured rebuild reference for your Freshsales admin. The audit lists every automation trigger, condition, and action in Jobsite Mobile so that Freshsales Workflows can be rebuilt in the same logical order. Post-migration support is available for 5 business days to handle any record-level corrections.
