Overview
Moving from Salesflare to Monday.com CRM is a structural migration: Salesflare is a B2B CRM built around Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities with built-in email enrichment and sequences, while Monday.com CRM is a board-based work OS with CRM entities layered on top of a flexible item structure. The key migration challenge is translating Salesflare's relational Account-Contact-Opportunity model into Monday.com's People items, Organizations, and Deals, while preserving the historical activity timeline. We handle custom field mapping, tag translation, owner resolution by email, and pipeline stage configuration as Monday.com board columns. We do not migrate Salesflare Workflows, Email Sequences, or Custom Dashboards; these are documented as rebuild items for the customer's admin.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Salesflare object lands in monday CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Salesflare
Account
monday CRM
Organization
1:1Salesflare Account records map directly to Monday.com CRM Organization items. Standard fields (name, domain, industry, location) map to Organization name, website, and custom columns. We use domain as the dedupe key during import. Organizations are created first so that the Organization-People relationship is satisfied at Contact import time. Custom properties on Accounts migrate as custom columns on the Organization board.
Salesflare
Contact
monday CRM
People (Person item)
1:1Salesflare Contact records map to Monday.com CRM People items. The Account-Contact junction is preserved through Monday.com's Organization-People relationship, which is a first-class link in the CRM module. Email, phone, title, social links, and enrichment data (from signature scraping) map to corresponding People item columns. We flag any Contact without a valid email as a data quality issue for the customer's review before import.
Salesflare
Opportunity
monday CRM
Deal
1:1Salesflare Opportunity records map to Monday.com CRM Deals. Opportunity name, value, expected close date, and stage migrate to Deal name, value, and status columns. We map the Salesflare pipeline-stage label to a Monday.com status group within the Deals board. Owner assignment migrates by resolving the Salesflare Owner email to a Monday.com team member.
Salesflare
Pipeline
monday CRM
Status Groups (on Deals board)
lossySalesflare pipeline definitions (pipeline name and stage labels per account) migrate as Monday.com status groups on the Deals board. We export the pipeline configuration as metadata during discovery, then configure the corresponding status columns in Monday.com before Opportunity import. Probability and weighted value per stage are preserved as separate number columns if the customer uses them in reporting.
Salesflare
Activity (calls, emails, meetings)
monday CRM
Activity Log / Updates
1:1Salesflare Activity records (logged calls, emails, meetings) migrate to Monday.com Updates on the associated People or Deal item. Call duration and disposition migrate as custom columns on the activity update. Meeting details (date, duration, location) migrate as structured Updates with a table format. We preserve the chronological order of activities using the item's Update timestamp.
Salesflare
User (Owner)
monday CRM
Team Member
1:1Salesflare Owner records map to Monday.com team members. We resolve by email match: each unique Salesflare Owner email must correspond to a Monday.com user invited to the workspace. Owners without a match enter a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. Role and permission sets do not transfer and must be reconfigured in Monday.com's access settings.
Salesflare
Tag
monday CRM
Tag (native) or Label column
lossySalesflare Tags are flat labels on Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities. Tags migrate as Monday.com native Tags applied to People, Organizations, and Deals items. If the customer uses tag groupings or categories, we document the taxonomy and map it to Monday.com label column values rather than native tags to preserve grouping semantics.
Salesflare
Custom Property
monday CRM
Custom Column
lossySalesflare custom properties on Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities migrate as custom columns on the corresponding Monday.com item types. We export the full property map per object during discovery, then create matching column types in Monday.com before migration. Text, number, date, and dropdown properties map directly; multi-select properties map to Monday.com dropdown columns with value mapping defined during scoping.
Salesflare
Attachment (file)
monday CRM
File (linked to item)
1:1Salesflare file attachments stored as URLs or accessible blobs migrate as files attached to the corresponding Monday.com People, Organization, or Deal item. We preserve filename, linked object, and file size metadata. Attachments that were stored as URLs pointing to external systems (Google Drive, Dropbox) are logged as a separate configuration note and may require re-linkage in Monday.com depending on the source system's API access.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and data audit
We audit the source Salesflare account across tier (Growth/Pro/Enterprise), custom properties per object, active pipelines and stages, engagement volume, sequence count, active workflow count, and attachment count. We produce a written data inventory: record counts per object, custom field schemas, tag taxonomy, and pipeline definitions. This inventory becomes the migration baseline and the first validation checkpoint after import into Monday.com.
Monday.com board architecture design
We design the Monday.com CRM board architecture before any data moves. This includes provisioning the CRM module (People, Organizations, Deals), creating custom columns to match Salesflare custom properties, configuring status groups to match Salesflare pipeline stages, setting up the Relationships columns linking People to Organizations and Deals, and designing any additional boards for activity tracking. The architecture is validated in a staging workspace before production migration begins.
Data cleansing and transformation
We deduplicate Accounts (by domain), Contacts (by email), and Opportunities (by name and Account) before import. We standardize date formats, clean malformed phone numbers, and resolve any incomplete address records flagged during the data audit. Tags are normalized to lowercase and duplicates merged. The transformation output is a set of CSV-ready datasets per item type, with a cross-reference table linking Contact to Account and Opportunity to Account.
Staging migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Monday.com staging workspace or a temporary board set using production-like data volume. The customer's admin reviews record counts, spot-checks 20-30 records per object against the Salesflare source, and validates that the Organization-People-Deal relationships resolve correctly. Any mapping corrections, missing custom columns, or data quality issues are resolved in this phase before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Organizations first (as the parent entity), then People (with Organization IDs resolved via the cross-reference table), then Deals (with Organization and Owner IDs resolved). Activity records (calls, emails, meetings) import as Updates on the associated People or Deal items, preserving chronological order. Tags are applied as a post-import batch after all item types are created. Custom properties land last to ensure columns exist before values are written.
Cutover, validation, and handoff
We freeze Salesflare writes during a cutover window, run a delta migration of any records modified during the migration, then hand off Monday.com as the system of record. We deliver the Sequence inventory, Workflow inventory, and Dashboard inventory as written documents for the customer's admin to rebuild. We support a five-business-day hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the sales team. Post-migration admin configuration (user roles, automations, integrations) is outside migration scope and is the customer's responsibility.
