Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from Solve 360 to Pipedrive is a consolidation and modernization migration. Solve 360 stores people, companies, tasks, and support as linked views of a single record; Pipedrive separates these into People, Organizations, Deals, and Activities as distinct objects. We resolve the schema split during migration, pulling Contact and Company data into their respective Pipedrive objects while preserving the relationship links via Organization lookup on People records. Tasks and Follow-ups from Solve 360 migrate as Pipedrive Activities; Support Requests become Notes attached to the relevant Person or Organization. Custom fields export from Solve 360 and are recreated as typed custom fields in Pipedrive before any data import. Attachments download and re-upload with parent-record re-association. Workflow automations export as structured configuration JSON for your admin to rebuild in Pipedrive's automation engine. Solve 360's minimum 4-user billing floor means even small teams moving to Pipedrive's per-user model can see immediate cost predictability improvements.

Field-level fidelity

Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Schema-aware mapping

AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.

Relationships preserved

Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Full activity history

Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.

Attachments & notes

Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

What's pushing teams away

  • The feature set lags behind HubSpot, Zoho, and Salesforce as teams scale, prompting upgrades to platforms with broader ecosystem integrations and app marketplaces.
  • Mobile apps are limited to web-responsive or basic native wrappers; users expecting a full-featured native mobile experience outgrow the offering and move to better-supported alternatives.
  • Only 17 verified G2 reviews indicate a small and potentially declining user base, which raises concerns about long-term product investment and support responsiveness.
  • Custom field limits and a comparatively basic API mean growing teams with complex data models eventually migrate to CRMs with more flexible schema design.

Choosing

Pipedrive

What's pulling them in

  • Clean drag-and-drop pipeline interface with minimal learning curve, making it approachable for small sales teams without dedicated CRM admins.
  • Visual deal tracking keeps reps focused on next actions — activities, calls, and follow-up tasks surface directly in the pipeline view.
  • Strong integrations via Zapier and native marketplace apps let teams wire Pipedrive into Calendly, ActiveCampaign, and similar sales-stack tools.
  • Mobile apps for iOS and Android keep field reps connected to deals, contacts, and tasks without a desktop session.
  • Reputation and review volume — over 3,000 verified reviews across G2 and Capterra — signal reliability for teams evaluating CRM options.

Object mapping

How solve 360 objects map to Pipedrive

Each row shows how a solve 360 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.

solve 360

Contact

maps to

Pipedrive

Person

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Contacts map directly to Pipedrive People. Standard fields (name, email, phone, address) transfer as typed fields. Custom fields on Contacts export with their field type (text, number, date, selection) and are pre-created in Pipedrive before the People import begins. We use email as the dedupe key to prevent duplicate Person records on re-runs. The Organization lookup on each Person record is resolved after Organization import completes.

solve 360

Company

maps to

Pipedrive

Organization

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Companies map to Pipedrive Organizations. Company name becomes Organization name; domain becomes website field. We import Organizations before People so that the OrganizationId lookup is satisfied at the moment of Person insert. Any Solve 360 Company with no linked Contacts is imported as a standalone Organization. Custom fields on Companies pre-create as Pipedrive custom fields on the Organization object before import.

solve 360

Task

maps to

Pipedrive

Activity (Task subtype)

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Tasks map to Pipedrive Activities of type Task. Status, priority, due date, and assignee transfer. Assignee resolution uses email matching against Pipedrive Users, with unresolvable owners held in a reconciliation queue. Task time entries (duration and billing flag) attach as a note on the activity record if the destination Pipedrive plan supports the field, or as a custom note format.

solve 360

Follow-up

maps to

Pipedrive

Activity (Note subtype)

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Follow-ups are time-stamped activity records tied to a Contact or Company. They migrate as Pipedrive Activity records with the activity_type set to Note and the body carrying the follow-up content. The original timestamp is preserved as the ActivityDate. We link Follow-ups to the corresponding Person or Organization using the Solve 360 relationship metadata before import.

solve 360

Support Request

maps to

Pipedrive

Activity (Note)

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Support Requests track issue status, descriptions, and conversation history against a Contact or Company. Pipedrive has no native ticket object in standard plans, so we migrate Support Request records as Activity Notes with a custom field capturing the original support status (Open, Pending, Resolved, Closed). Conversation threads append as sequential Note entries on the same Person or Organization. Customers on Pipedrive's Enterprise plan can use Cases if Service Cloud is active, which we configure on request.

solve 360

Time Record

maps to

Pipedrive

Note attached to Activity

1:many
Fully supported

Solve 360 Time Records attach to Tasks, Follow-ups, Calls, and Meetings and carry duration, date, billing flag, and parent object reference. We export Time Records grouped by their parent object. During Pipedrive import, each group appends as a structured note on the parent Activity, preserving duration, date, and billing flag. Time Records without a parent are imported as standalone Notes on the associated Person or Organization.

solve 360

User

maps to

Pipedrive

User

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Users are both system actors and assignment targets. We export the full user list and match by email against Pipedrive Users. Any Solve 360 User without a matching Pipedrive User is held in the reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. Active status, name, and email are the only fields that transfer; Solve 360 role permissions do not map to Pipedrive role structures.

solve 360

Custom Field

maps to

Pipedrive

Custom Field

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 custom fields on Contacts and Companies (text, number, date, selection types) export with their definitions and values. We pre-create matching Pipedrive custom fields on the Person and Organization objects before data import, using equivalent field types. Selection fields map to Pipedrive drop-down options; multi-select scenarios map to Pipedrive multi-select fields. We flag any field types that have no direct Pipedrive equivalent (such as Solve 360-specific data types) for manual review during scoping.

solve 360

Pipeline Stage

maps to

Pipedrive

Pipeline and Stage

lossy
Fully supported

Solve 360 pipelines and their stages (names, order, probability) export as a configuration object. We create matching Pipedrive Pipelines and Stages before migration, setting stage probabilities to match Solve 360 values. The customer's Pipedrive admin reviews and approves the pipeline layout in a Sandbox or development account before production import begins. If Solve 360 pipeline assignments are per-record rather than global, we document the per-record assignment logic for manual recreation.

solve 360

Tag/Label

maps to

Pipedrive

Tag

1:1
Fully supported

Solve 360 Tags label Contacts, Companies, Tasks, and Support Requests. We export the full tag taxonomy and re-apply them as Pipedrive native Tags, preserving per-record associations. Pipedrive Tags are object-agnostic and apply to People, Organizations, Deals, and Activities, which mirrors Solve 360's tagging model closely.

solve 360

Attachment

maps to

Pipedrive

File

1:1
Fully supported

Attachments on Contacts, Companies, Tasks, and Support Requests are downloaded from Solve 360 with their file metadata (name, type, size, upload date). We re-upload them to Pipedrive and link them to the corresponding Person, Organization, or Activity using Pipedrive's file attachment API. File metadata is preserved in a note attached to the file for audit. Attachments larger than 100 MB are flagged for chunked upload or direct link strategy during scoping.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Pipedrive's native Import2 does not support Solve 360

    Pipedrive's built-in Import2 migration tool lists supported sources (HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho CRM, and spreadsheets) but does not include Solve 360. There is no pre-built connector between Solve 360 and Pipedrive in Import2's catalog. We build a custom migration pipeline reading from Solve 360's REST API and writing to Pipedrive's API, which bypasses Import2 entirely. This requires API credentials for both platforms and a longer discovery phase to map Solve 360's schema to Pipedrive's object model before any data moves.

  • Duplicate records without stable external IDs

    Migrations that import Contacts and Deals without stable external identifiers produce duplicate records on re-runs or partial imports. We extract Solve 360's record IDs as external_id fields and use email (for People) and company name plus domain (for Organizations) as dedupe keys during Pipedrive import. Any record already present in Pipedrive from a prior partial import is updated rather than re-created. This approach is validated during the Sandbox migration phase before production cutover.

  • Pipedrive API v1 deprecation by July 31, 2026

    Pipedrive deprecated its API v1 endpoints, requiring OAuth 2.0 for new connections and migration pipelines. API token connections are no longer supported. We configure OAuth authentication with the customer's Pipedrive account and scope the token to the minimum permissions required for read and write access. Pipedrive's token-based rate limits and burst limits (rolling two-second windows) apply during migration, requiring explicit throttling and retry logic in our import scripts to avoid 429 and 403 responses.

  • Support Request history has no native Pipedrive equivalent

    Solve 360's Support Requests carry status transitions, conversation threads, and linked work history. Pipedrive's standard plans do not include a ticket or case object; support history migrates as Notes and Activities, which does not preserve the full structured ticket lifecycle (Open, Pending, Resolved stages, time-to-resolution metrics). We document this gap in the migration inventory and advise customers to evaluate Pipedrive's Service Cloud add-on if post-migration support tracking is a business requirement.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful solve 360 to Pipedrive data migration

  1. Discovery and Solve product identification

    We audit the source Solve 360 account to confirm whether the customer uses Solve CRM, Solve Client Manager, or the Both Products bundle. This matters because Client Manager enforces 25 GB/user storage (versus 150 GB pooled on CRM) and the storage reconciliation process differs. We document all object counts (Contacts, Companies, Tasks, Follow-ups, Support Requests, Time Records), custom field definitions, pipeline stage structure, tag taxonomy, and active workflow count. We confirm the target Pipedrive plan (Essential through Enterprise) and identify any missing Pipedrive features (Cases, custom objects, multiple pipelines) that require plan upgrades.

  2. Source API access and data extraction

    We establish access to Solve 360 via the REST API using the customer's credentials. If the account is on Solve CRM rather than the Both Products bundle, bot/API access may be restricted; we request assisted export from Solve's client engineers, which adds 3-5 business days. We extract all objects in full including custom field values, relationship metadata, timestamps, and attachment URLs. Tags export as a separate taxonomy with per-record associations. All data lands in a staging environment with encryption at rest.

  3. Schema pre-creation in Pipedrive

    Before any data import, we pre-create Pipedrive custom fields, pipelines, stages, and any required record types in the destination account. Custom fields are created with the correct field type (text, number, date, selection, multi-select) to match Solve 360 definitions. Pipelines and stages are configured with probability values pulled from the Solve 360 pipeline export. The customer's Pipedrive admin reviews and approves the schema configuration before migration scripts run. This phase includes any required OAuth token setup for Pipedrive API access.

  4. Sandbox migration and reconciliation

    We run a full migration into the customer's Pipedrive account using representative data volume. We reconcile record counts per object (People in, Organizations in, Activities in, Notes in), spot-check 25-50 records against the Solve 360 source, and verify tag associations and parent-child relationships. Any field mapping corrections, custom field type adjustments, or pipeline configuration changes are made here. The admin signs off the mapping workbook before we proceed to production migration.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order: Pipedrive Users (validated), Organizations (from Solve Companies), People (with OrganizationId resolved), Activities and Notes (Tasks, Follow-ups, Support Requests, Time Records), Tags (applied to People, Organizations, and Activities), and Attachments (downloaded and re-uploaded with parent re-association). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Workflow definitions export as structured JSON and are delivered in the migration inventory handoff package.

  6. Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff

    We freeze Solve 360 writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then hand the account to the customer. We deliver the workflow configuration export, the tag taxonomy, the custom field mapping workbook, and the automation rebuild guide as a written inventory. We do not rebuild Solve 360 workflows in Pipedrive as part of the migration scope; that work requires a separate scoping session with the customer's Pipedrive admin or an automation consultant.

Platform deep dives

Context on both ends of the pair

Source

Strengths

  • Per-user flat pricing with no usage-based surprises or hidden overage charges
  • Google Calendar and Gmail integration centralizes scheduling and communication context directly in the CRM record
  • Single-record data model eliminates duplicates by design, keeping people, companies, and work linked on one entity
  • Workflow automation handles multi-step task sequences with intelligent scheduling and assignment
  • Self-organizing dashboard surfaces team priorities in real time without manual status updates

Weaknesses

  • Only 17 verified G2 reviews suggests a small, niche user base with limited community resources and peer support
  • Feature set is narrower than HubSpot, Zoho, or Salesforce, limiting growth potential for teams that need advanced automation or marketplace integrations
  • API documentation is not prominently exposed; bulk data export may require assisted access rather than self-serve developer tooling
  • Minimum 4-user requirement locks out solo users and very small teams from the base plan
  • Native mobile apps are limited compared to competitors with full-featured iOS and Android clients

Strengths

  • Intuitive drag-and-drop pipeline that sales reps actually use without resistance or training overhead.
  • Per-seat unlimited-deals model on all tiers — reps cannot be blocked from logging activity.
  • Active marketplace with 400+ integrations and a documented REST API with OpenAPI 3 specs.
  • Mobile apps with offline access, call logging, and calendar sync keep field teams operational.
  • Strong focus on sales activity tracking — next-action reminders and follow-up scheduling are first-class features.

Weaknesses

  • No custom objects — teams needing non-standard data structures must work around the four standard entity types.
  • Workflow automation limits by tier (30, 60, 90 active workflows) force upgrades as processes grow.
  • No free permanent plan — teams evaluating fit must commit to a trial without a freemium option.
  • Limited advanced reporting and custom dashboard capabilities compared to HubSpot or Salesforce.
  • Export permissions are gated by visibility groups, meaning data scoping must account for who can see what before migration.
