Migrate your Less Annoying CRM data
A stripped-down CRM with one flat price and honest limits, built for teams too small to need enterprise complexity.
In its favor
Why people choose Less Annoying CRM
The signal that keeps Less Annoying CRM on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
The single flat price of $15 per user per month with no contracts, tiers, or hidden fees means teams know exactly what they will pay, eliminating sticker shock that drives churn from complex CRM pricing models.
Free human phone and email support for every account, regardless of plan tier, is cited repeatedly as the defining reason small businesses stick with LACRM over support-gated competitors.
The average LACRM account has 2.5 users — the platform is designed for micro-teams and solo users who find enterprise CRMs overwhelming and resented by the overhead they impose.
The minimal feature set is intentional: teams that only need contact management, basic pipelines, and task tracking find LACRM faster to onboard than alternatives that require weeks of configuration.
Over 10,000 small businesses and consistent recognition as US News and World Report's #1 CRM for small businesses from 2020–2023 provide social proof that reduces buying risk for first-time CRM buyers.
No native mobile app frustrates field sales teams and solo users who need to access contacts and update pipelines from phones or tablets outside of a desktop browser.
The intentionally minimal feature set — no Kanban view, no built-in marketing automation, no advanced reporting — forces growing teams to duct-tape LACRM together with Zapier workflows they eventually outgrow.
Limited native integrations beyond Zapier means teams with complex stacks (native email sequencing, calendar tools beyond Google and Outlook) hit walls and look for all-in-one platforms instead.
Users who scale past approximately 10–20 team members report that the lack of advanced collaboration features (shared workspaces, granular permissions beyond basic user roles) becomes a genuine constraint.

What gets migrated
Less Annoying CRM object support
Object-by-object support for Less Annoying CRM migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Contacts
Fully supportedContacts is LACRM's primary object. Standard fields (name, email, phone, address, tags) map 1:1. Custom contact fields are fully supported and migrate as typed properties. The UID primary key must be stored as a string to avoid float precision loss from its 31-digit length.
Companies/Accounts
Fully supportedLACRM maintains Companies as a separate object from Contacts. We preserve the Contact-to-Company relationship explicitly during migration since LACRM links them via a relationship table rather than embedding company data inside contact records.
Pipeline Items
Mapping requiredPipeline Items migrate as the destination's equivalent Deals or Opportunities. LACRM pipeline stages are free-text and fully customizable per account; we map them to the destination's pipeline stages and flag any that have no natural equivalent.
Notes
Fully supportedNotes attached to contacts, companies, or pipeline items migrate with their timestamp, author, and body content preserved. Notes are treated as standalone objects linked by relationship records.
Tasks
Fully supportedTasks associated with contacts or pipeline items migrate including their due date, assignee, completion status, and any linked contact or pipeline item. Open tasks are migrated as open; completed tasks are migrated with their completion date.
Events
Fully supportedCalendar events (meetings, calls) logged against contacts migrate with their timestamp, title, description, and linked contact reference intact.
Files/Attachments
Fully supportedFiles attached to contacts or companies are exported as base64-encoded content and re-created in the destination system linked to the corresponding record. LACRM's 25GB per-user storage allocation does not carry over; we flag total file volume during scoping.
Tags
Fully supportedTags applied to contacts or companies migrate as-is. Multi-select tag fields are preserved as comma-separated values or mapped to the destination's native tag or label object depending on the target platform.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredCustom fields exist on Contacts, Companies, and Pipeline Items. We map them by name and type (text, date, number, dropdown) and flag any field types that require transformation (e.g., LACRM dropdowns that need value remapping in the destination).
Automations
Not in this platformAutomations are not exposed via LACRM's public API. We export the automation rules as a structured JSON document during scoping so your team can rebuild them manually in the destination. No automation logic migrates automatically.
Email Logging (IMAP)
Mapping requiredLACRM syncs emails via IMAP with Gmail or Outlook accounts. Email records associated with contacts migrate as Notes or Activity records in the destination, but the IMAP connection itself must be re-established in the new system.
Users/Team Members
Mapping requiredUser accounts, names, email addresses, and permission levels migrate as User records. LACRM's role model is simple (admin vs. standard user); we map this to the destination's user roles and flag any granular permissions that cannot be replicated 1:1.
Groups
Mapping requiredGroups are LACRM's team-segmentation feature for controlling access. We map group membership to the destination's Teams or Sharing Groups. Note that LACRM Groups control both visibility and data access — these concepts may need to be represented differently in the destination CRM.
