Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from SprintHub to Freshsales requires navigating SprintHub's non-public API documentation (hosted on an unindexed GitBook instance), which means field names and data types must be validated during discovery rather than beforehand. SprintHub's unified platform merges marketing, sales, and WhatsApp omnichannel into one interface; Freshsales separates these into Freshsales CRM, Freshmarketer, and Freshchat as distinct products, so channel routing configurations built in SprintHub may need rebuilding in Freshsales. We extract SprintHub's Lead, Contact, Company, Pipeline, and Tag records using API access credentials provided by the customer, map stage names explicitly because they vary per-instance, and preserve engagement timestamps and custom field values without transformation. WhatsApp conversation data migrates as activity notes or Freshchat transcripts depending on the destination Freshsales plan. Workflow automations, marketing sequences, social media campaign configurations, and forms are not migrated; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild post-migration.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

SprintHub logo

SprintHub

What's pushing teams away

  • Custom workflow configurations may break after platform updates, requiring manual re-testing each time SprintHub releases new patches.
  • The forms builder lacks intuitiveness for end users, creating friction in lead capture processes.
  • Limited publicly available API documentation makes custom integrations and third-party tool connections difficult to maintain.
  • Pricing tiers are not transparently published, making it hard to predict costs as the team scales.

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 SprintHub objects map to Freshsales

Each row shows how a SprintHub 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.

SprintHub

Lead

maps to

Freshsales

Lead

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Lead records map to Freshsales Lead. We extract standard Lead fields (name, contact info, status, owner assignment) from SprintHub's GraphQL-style API and insert into Freshsales using the Leads API endpoint. Tags attached to SprintHub Leads migrate as a multi-select text field or to Freshsales's native Tags feature if the destination plan supports it. Lead status values from SprintHub are preserved explicitly rather than assumed to match Freshsales defaults.

SprintHub

Contact

maps to

Freshsales

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Contact records map to Freshsales Contact. Contact details, custom properties, and company associations transfer directly. We resolve SprintHub's company association to the Freshsales Account record (created first to satisfy the lookup). Tag associations on Contact records migrate to Freshsales Contact tags, maintaining the color metadata where the destination supports it.

SprintHub

Company

maps to

Freshsales

Account

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Company records map to Freshsales Account. Company name, industry, size, and custom fields transfer without transformation. The Account record is imported before Contact records to satisfy the lookup dependency. We use company name as the dedupe key during import to prevent duplicate Accounts from being created if multiple Contacts reference the same Company.

SprintHub

Pipeline

maps to

Freshsales

Deal (with Sales Flows)

lossy
Fully supported

SprintHub pipeline definitions map to Freshsales Deal structure. Each SprintHub pipeline becomes a Freshsales Deal with its stage names explicitly mapped because they vary per-instance. We extract pipeline configuration as key-value pairs (pipeline name, stage names, stage order) and configure Freshsales Deal stages to match before any Deal records are imported.

SprintHub

Pipeline Stages

maps to

Freshsales

Deal Stages

lossy
Mapping required

Stage names, stage order, and probability percentages from SprintHub map to Freshsales Deal stages. We extract stage configurations as explicit field mappings rather than relying on default stage names. If SprintHub uses stage names that do not match Freshsales defaults (Prospecting, Qualification, Proposal, Negotiation, Closed Won, Closed Lost), we create custom stage values in Freshsales before Deal import begins.

SprintHub

Tag

maps to

Freshsales

Tag

1:1
Fully supported

Tags are global across the SprintHub instance and attach to Leads, Contacts, and other objects. We retrieve the full tag list including color metadata and preserve tag associations on each record during migration. Tags migrate to Freshsales's Tags feature, which is available on all paid Freshsales plans and can be applied to Leads, Contacts, Accounts, and Deals.

SprintHub

WhatsApp Multi-Account Configurations

maps to

Freshsales

Freshchat Conversations or Activity Notes

1:1
Mapping required

SprintHub's WhatsApp multi-account feature is a core differentiator for Brazilian teams managing client-facing and internal numbers. Freshsales standalone does not include WhatsApp; Freshsales Suite includes Freshchat with WhatsApp channel support on the Estate and Forest tiers. We preserve conversation thread metadata (timestamp, participant, account assignment) as activity notes linked to the relevant Contact or Account record. Channel routing rules (which WhatsApp account maps to which team) are documented for manual rebuild in Freshsales Freshchat.

SprintHub

Custom Fields

maps to

Freshsales

Custom Fields

lossy
Mapping required

SprintHub custom field names, types, and picklist options vary per instance. We extract the full custom field schema alongside record values during discovery and pre-create equivalent custom fields in Freshsales before data import. Type conversions are applied where needed (for example, SprintHub date formats mapped to Freshsales date fields, multi-select text fields mapped to Freshsales multi-select picklists). Custom field definitions are documented separately for the customer's admin to validate after migration.

Pair-specific challenges

  • SprintHub API schema requires manual discovery before migration scoping

    SprintHub's API documentation is hosted on a GitBook instance that is not indexed by search engines, meaning we cannot reference field names or endpoint documentation before receiving API access credentials from the customer. During scoping, we request SprintHub API credentials and perform manual schema exploration to enumerate available objects, field names, data types, and pagination limits. This discovery step adds time to the initial scoping phase compared to migrations from platforms with publicly documented APIs. We do not charge extra for discovery but flag it as a prerequisite that depends on the customer's timely provision of credentials.

  • WhatsApp multi-account routing does not map natively to Freshsales

    SprintHub's native multi-WhatsApp-account management, valued by Brazilian teams managing client-facing numbers and internal numbers through one interface, has no direct equivalent in Freshsales standalone. Freshsales Suite includes Freshchat with WhatsApp support, but account-to-team routing assignments built in SprintHub must be rebuilt manually in Freshchat after migration. We preserve the routing configuration as a written inventory document mapping each SprintHub WhatsApp account ID to its team assignment and conversation thread associations. This document is handed off to the customer's Freshsales admin for Freshchat channel reconfiguration.

  • Custom workflow automations require manual rebuild post-migration

    SprintHub automation rules including trigger conditions, filter logic, and multi-step action sequences are stored in a proprietary format. We export workflow definitions as structured JSON during migration but do not migrate them as executable automation in Freshsales. Freshsales uses a different automation model (workflow rules, Freshsales Suite uses Freddy AI for bot-driven automation) that cannot be generated from SprintHub's rule structure. We deliver a written automation inventory with each rule's trigger, conditions, actions, and recommended Freshsales workflow equivalent for the customer's admin to rebuild.

  • Freshsales field-level security and validation rules can block record import

    Freshsales enforces required field constraints, picklist whitelists, and conditional field rules that vary by plan and org configuration. During migration, records may be rejected if a required Freshsales field is not present in the SprintHub export, or if a SprintHub picklist value is not whitelisted in Freshsales. We validate the mapping against the destination schema during sandbox migration and either map missing values to defaults or flag fields that require Freshsales admin reconfiguration before production import proceeds. This step is included in the standard migration scope and does not incur additional charges.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful SprintHub to Freshsales data migration

  1. API access and schema discovery

    We request SprintHub API credentials from the customer and perform manual endpoint discovery against the unindexed GitBook-hosted API. We enumerate available objects (Leads, Contacts, Companies, Pipelines, Tags, custom fields), retrieve field names and data types for each, and identify pagination limits and rate constraints. This discovery output forms the basis of the migration scope document shared with the customer before any data is extracted.

  2. Freshsales destination setup and schema pre-creation

    We recommend the appropriate Freshsales plan (Free, Growth, Pro, Estate, or Forest) based on the customer's record volume, custom field count, and whether Freshchat WhatsApp support is required. We pre-create custom fields in Freshsales matching the SprintHub custom field schema, configure Deal stages to match SprintHub pipeline stage names explicitly, and set up Account-Contact-Lead object relationships. This work happens in a Freshsales sandbox or trial environment before production migration begins.

  3. Sandbox migration and record reconciliation

    We run a full migration into the Freshsales trial or sandbox environment using production-like data volume extracted from SprintHub. We generate row-count reconciliation reports for Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Deals, and Tags. The customer's team spot-checks a sample of migrated records against the SprintHub source to validate field mapping accuracy. Any corrections to field mapping, stage name translations, or default value assignments are made before production migration begins.

  4. Owner reconciliation and user provisioning

    We extract every distinct SprintHub Owner (user) referenced on Lead, Contact, Company, and Deal records and match by email against the Freshsales User table. Owners without a matching Freshsales User go to a reconciliation queue. The customer's Freshsales admin provisions any missing Users. Migration cannot proceed past this step because OwnerId is a required reference on most Freshsales standard objects.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order: Accounts (from SprintHub Companies), Contacts (with AccountId resolved), Leads, Deals (with stage names mapped from SprintHub pipeline), Tags (applied to the migrated records), custom field values (on all objects), and WhatsApp conversation metadata (as activity notes or Freshchat transcripts depending on the destination Freshsales plan). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.

  6. Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff

    We freeze SprintHub writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Freshsales as the system of record. We deliver the automation inventory document, WhatsApp routing configuration document, and custom field schema to the customer's admin team. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild SprintHub Workflow automations as Freshsales workflows inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement or an internal admin task.

Most migrations land between three and five weeks for accounts under 15,000 Leads and Contacts with a single pipeline and no complex WhatsApp multi-account routing. Migrations with multiple pipelines, extensive custom field schemas, large WhatsApp conversation histories, or teams requiring Freshsales Suite tier setup move to eight to twelve weeks because of manual API schema discovery, stage-name mapping per pipeline, and Freshchat WhatsApp reconfiguration planning.
