Overview
Moving from Ometria to Pipedrive is a category migration: Ometria is a retail Customer Data and Experience Platform (CDXP) that unifies commerce, loyalty, and campaign data into a single customer profile, while Pipedrive is a sales CRM built around pipeline management, deal stages, and rep activity tracking. The core migration maps Ometria's Contact profiles to Pipedrive People, Ometria Companies to Pipedrive Organizations, and Ometria Orders to Pipedrive Deals with key order attributes stored as custom fields on the Deal. Lifecycle Programs, Broadcast Campaigns, and Master Templates do not migrate because they are automation and campaign objects with no Pipedrive equivalent; we deliver a written inventory of these for your admin to rebuild as Pipedrive Workflows or Campaigns. Suppression lists migrate as Pipedrive blocklist entries to preserve GDPR and CAN-SPAM compliance. Custom attributes on Ometria profiles map to custom fields in Pipedrive, with field type conversion (date, number, boolean, picklist) handled explicitly during schema design.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Ometria object lands in Pipedrive, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Ometria
Contact
Pipedrive
Person
1:1Ometria Contact profiles map to Pipedrive People records. The contact's email address is the dedupe key. Standard fields (name, email, phone, address) migrate directly. Ometria's dynamic contact properties (VIP flag, lifecycle stage, favorite brand) become custom fields in Pipedrive. We flag which Ometria properties are deprecated (those referencing de-activated ecommerce sources) and exclude them from migration.
Ometria
Company
Pipedrive
Organization
1:1Ometria Company records map to Pipedrive Organizations. Ometria's company-level attributes (industry, annual revenue, employee count) become custom fields on the Organization. We resolve the link between Ometria Contact and Company via the contact's associated_company_id property and create the Organization record before the Person record so that the organization_id field is satisfied at Person insert.
Ometria
Order
Pipedrive
Deal
1:manyOmetria Order records map to Pipedrive Deals. Each order generates a Deal with the order total as the Deal value, order date as the Activity date, and order status as a custom field. If a Contact has multiple orders, we create multiple Deals and link each to the same Person and Organization. Order line items, product SKUs, and discount codes become custom fields on the Deal. Note that Ometria's revenue attribution (which may differ 15-20% from Google Analytics) migrates as-is with a flag for reconciliation.
Ometria
Segment
Pipedrive
Person Field (Tag) or List
lossyOmetria segments are dynamic rule-based groups that update automatically; Pipedrive has no equivalent native dynamic segment. We export segment membership as a list of contact email addresses and deliver this as a CSV for your Pipedrive admin to create as static lists, Person tags, or Lead Rotations. The segment logic (rules and conditions) is documented separately for rebuild in Pipedrive Workflows or a third-party segmentation tool.
Ometria
Lifecycle Program
Pipedrive
Workflow (requires rebuild)
1:1Ometria Lifecycle Programs are multi-step automation journeys with triggers, delays, and conditional branches. Pipedrive Workflows are record-action automations scoped to CRM events (deal stage change, activity creation, field update). There is no direct equivalent to Ometria's journey builder. We export the full Lifecycle Program structure (trigger, steps, conditions, delays, actions) as a written inventory document. Your Pipedrive admin or a Pipedrive partner rebuilds the logic in Pipedrive Workflows or an external automation tool. Lifecycle Programs do not migrate as executable code.
Ometria
Broadcast Campaign
Pipedrive
Campaign (requires rebuild)
1:1Ometria Broadcast Campaigns are one-time email sends to a segment. Pipedrive Campaigns are mailing list groups for tracking email opens and clicks but do not handle sending themselves (Pipedrive relies on an integrated ESP). We export campaign metadata (name, send date, subject, segment, template used) and delivery metrics (sent, opened, clicked). The customer configures their email integration (Mailchimp, HubSpot Marketing, or similar) and rebuilds the campaign sends in that platform.
Ometria
Customer Attributes
Pipedrive
Custom Fields
lossyOmetria stores dynamic properties on each contact profile. We map each Ometria property to a Pipedrive custom field of the matching type: string properties map to text fields, dates map to date fields, numeric properties (order count, lifetime value) map to numeric fields, boolean properties (is_vip) map to boolean/toggle fields, and enumerated properties map to picklist fields. We validate the field type conversion before creating the Pipedrive fields and flag any properties with non-standard characters in the API name that require sanitization.
Ometria
Suppression List
Pipedrive
Blocklist
1:1Ometria suppression lists hold contacts blocked from receiving email for compliance or deliverability reasons. These migrate to Pipedrive's Blocklist (global email blocklist) to ensure migrated contacts do not receive unintended email after cutover. Suppression records include email address, suppression reason (bounce, unsubscribe, complaint), and suppression date. We preserve the reason as a custom field on the blocklist entry and the date for compliance audit trail.
Ometria
Store
Pipedrive
Organization Field or Custom Field
lossyOmetria Store records represent retail locations integrated as data sources. Pipedrive has no native store or location object. We map store data to Organization custom fields (store code, store region) or a custom Organization field set. Store-level suppression rules migrate as additional blocklist entries tagged by store origin.
Ometria
Subscriber
Pipedrive
Person (consent fields)
1:1Ometria Subscribers are contacts with explicit opt-in status. Consent records are migration-critical for GDPR and CAN-SPAM compliance. We preserve subscription status (subscribed, unsubscribed, bounced), consent timestamp, and opt-in source (ecommerce form, in-store, loyalty program). These map to Pipedrive Person fields with HasNoEmailAddress, Campaign Member status, and a custom consent_source field for compliance records.
Ometria
Event
Pipedrive
Activity (Task)
1:manyOmetria Events capture customer actions (order_placed, email_opened, page_viewed). Pipedrive Activities are CRM-level events tied to People and Deals. We map high-value Ometria events to Pipedrive Activities: order_placed events become Deal-linked Tasks, email_opened events become Person-linked Tasks with activity type = email. Low-frequency behavioral events (page_viewed, product_viewed) are summarized as custom fields on the Person rather than individual activity records to avoid flooding the Pipedrive timeline.
Ometria
Template (Master)
Pipedrive
External ESP Template (requires rebuild)
1:1Ometria Master Templates store reusable HTML for campaigns. Pipedrive does not have a native email template builder (it integrates with external ESPs for email delivery). We export template HTML from Ometria and deliver it to the customer for re-insertion into their chosen email platform (Mailchimp, HubSpot, Klaviyo, or similar). The template must be copied as HTML code specifically into a master template slot per Ometria's account migration guide; we flag this for manual handling during the cutover window.

Migration approach
Discovery and data audit
We audit the Ometria account across all object types: Contact profiles and properties, Companies, Orders (volume and attribute schema), Segments, Lifecycle Programs, Broadcast Campaigns, Events, Stores, Subscribers, Suppression Lists, and Master Templates. We extract a sample of 50-100 records per object type to validate field names, types, and data quality. We identify deprecated Ometria properties (those referencing de-activated data sources) and exclude them from migration. The discovery output is a written migration scope document with the full field map, object list, and any customer-specific mapping decisions required.
Pipedrive custom field schema design
We design the Pipedrive custom field schema before any records move. For each Ometria property, we create a matching Pipedrive custom field with the correct type (text, number, date, boolean, picklist). We consolidate overlapping fields and flag properties that exceed Pipedrive's custom field limit per object. We create the Pipedrive Organization structure first (matching Ometria Companies) so that Person records can reference Organization at insert time. We configure the Pipedrive Blocklist with suppression list entries before cutover to ensure compliance is maintained from day one.
Sample migration and reconciliation
We run a sample migration of 200-500 records per object type into a staging Pipedrive account. The customer reconciles record counts, spot-checks field mappings, and verifies that custom field values appear correctly on Person, Organization, and Deal records. We validate that suppression list entries are blocked, that order totals carry to Deals correctly, and that segment membership snapshots are complete. Any mapping corrections happen at this stage before the full production migration begins.
Data cleansing and deduplication
We deduplicate Ometria contacts before migration. Duplicate detection uses email address as the primary key, supplemented by phone number and name where available. We flag records with missing email (a required field in Pipedrive) for the customer's review and either supply an alternate email or exclude from migration. Ometria's dynamic contact properties can include deprecated or de-activated source data; we strip these before migration to avoid polluting the Pipedrive schema with orphaned field values.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Organizations (from Ometria Companies), then People (from Ometria Contacts with OrganizationId resolved), Deals (from Ometria Orders with PersonId and OrganizationId resolved), Activities (from Ometria Events mapped to Tasks), and Blocklist entries (from Ometria Suppression Lists). We use Pipedrive's REST API with batch chunking and rate-limit handling for large record sets. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Lifecycle Programs, Broadcast Campaigns, and Master Templates are documented but not migrated as executable data.
Cutover, validation, and automation handoff
We freeze Ometria writes during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any records modified since the initial export, and confirm Pipedrive as the system of record. We deliver the Lifecycle Program and Broadcast Campaign inventory document to your Pipedrive admin for rebuild as Pipedrive Workflows or external campaign tools. We deliver the Segment membership snapshots as CSV files organized by segment name. We support a three-day hypercare window to resolve reconciliation issues raised by your team. We do not rebuild Ometria automations or campaigns inside the migration scope.
