Overview

What this migration involves

SprintHub and Nutshell serve different CRM philosophies. SprintHub is a Brazilian all-in-one platform that bundles marketing automation, WhatsApp multi-account management, social media tools, and sales into a single subscription with opaque pricing. Nutshell is a US-based sales CRM built for SMB and mid-market teams that prioritizes an intuitive interface, transparent per-user pricing, and native email, scheduling, and quoting tools without requiring a marketing suite. The migration from SprintHub to Nutshell is a platform consolidation in reverse: teams moving from SprintHub's bundling model to Nutshell's focused sales CRM must decide what data stays, what gets left behind, and what requires manual rebuild. We extract Leads, Contacts, Companies, Deals (as Opportunities), Tags, and engagement history through SprintHub's non-public API using credentials supplied by the customer. WhatsApp channel routing does not map to Nutshell, which treats messaging as a standard CRM activity log. Automation rules, social media campaign data, and marketing workflow definitions migrate as structured JSON inventories for manual rebuild rather than as live configurations. We do not migrate workflows, sequences, or forms as code; we deliver written inventories for the customer's admin to reconstruct in Nutshell's automation builder.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

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

Nutshell logo

Nutshell

What's pulling them in

  • Lowest cost entry point among mid-market CRMs—Foundation plan starts at $13/user/month, making it accessible for teams validating CRM fit before committing.
  • Integrated sales automation and email sequencing on Pro plans without requiring a separate email marketing platform, per verified Capterra reviews.
  • Consistently praised for intuitive interface and fast onboarding, with case studies reporting 100% team adoption rates within initial deployment periods.
  • Strong customer support responsiveness cited across G2 reviews, with dedicated support tiers available on Enterprise plans.
  • Native integrations with WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and Slack reduce reliance on third-party middleware for common communication channels.

Object mapping

How SprintHub objects map to Nutshell

Each row shows how a SprintHub object lands in Nutshell, 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

Nutshell

Lead

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Lead records map directly to Nutshell Lead. We extract name, email, phone, status, owner assignment, and tag associations. The SprintHub lead status property maps to Nutshell Lead Status (New, Contacted, Qualified, Unqualified). Custom fields on SprintHub Leads migrate to Nutshell custom fields on Lead, which must be pre-created in Nutshell before migration using the Nutshell API or manually in the CRM settings per Nutshell's Help Center documentation on custom field creation.

SprintHub

Contact

maps to

Nutshell

Person

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Contact records map to Nutshell Person. Contact details, email addresses, phone numbers, and custom properties transfer directly. Tag associations on SprintHub Contacts migrate to Nutshell Person tags. Nutshell distinguishes People (individuals) from Companies, and Contacts without an associated Company map to standalone Person records.

SprintHub

Company

maps to

Nutshell

Company

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Company records map to Nutshell Company. Company name, industry, size, website, and custom fields transfer. Companies are created before Contacts in migration order so that the Person-to-Company association is resolved at the moment of Person import.

SprintHub

Deal

maps to

Nutshell

Opportunity

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub Deals map to Nutshell Opportunities. The deal name becomes the Opportunity name, deal value maps to Amount, and deal stage maps to Nutshell pipeline stage values. We extract stage order and probability per SprintHub pipeline and configure Nutshell's pipeline and stages to match before migration.

SprintHub

Pipeline

maps to

Nutshell

Pipeline

lossy
Fully supported

SprintHub pipeline definitions map to Nutshell Pipelines. Stage names, order, and probability percentages transfer as explicit configuration. Multiple SprintHub pipelines map to multiple Nutshell pipelines or, if Nutshell's pipeline count is limited on the selected tier, we consolidate them into a single pipeline with stage prefixes distinguishing the original pipeline origin.

SprintHub

Pipeline Stages

maps to

Nutshell

Pipeline Stages

lossy
Mapping required

Each SprintHub pipeline stage becomes a Nutshell pipeline stage with the original probability percentage and stage name preserved. Stage-specific custom fields in SprintHub map to Opportunity custom fields in Nutshell. We configure stages before any Opportunity records are imported.

SprintHub

Tag

maps to

Nutshell

Tag

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub tags are global across the instance and attach to Leads, Contacts, and Deals. We extract the full tag list including color metadata and preserve tag-to-record associations during migration. Tags migrate as Nutshell tags and are re-associated to the corresponding Person, Company, Lead, and Opportunity records at migration time.

SprintHub

Custom Fields

maps to

Nutshell

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 and map each to a corresponding Nutshell custom field with the closest available field type. Nutshell requires custom fields to be created before importing data (Nutshell Help Center guidance), so we pre-create all destination custom fields via the Nutshell API before any record import begins. This prevents mapping failures on the first import attempt.

SprintHub

Owner

maps to

Nutshell

User

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub owners referenced on Lead, Contact, Company, and Deal records are resolved by email match against Nutshell Users. Owners without a matching Nutshell User enter a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. This is a blocking dependency for Contact and Deal migration since OwnerId is required on standard Nutshell records.

SprintHub

Engagement: Calls, Emails, Meetings, Tasks

maps to

Nutshell

Activity Log

1:1
Fully supported

SprintHub engagement records (calls, emails, meetings, tasks) migrate to Nutshell activity log entries. Call duration and disposition map to Nutshell task notes. Email subjects and bodies map to Nutshell activity descriptions. Meeting start and end times and locations preserve. Nutshell's activity log is a unified timeline rather than separate objects, so we consolidate engagement types into Nutshell's task-based activity format with a type indicator field distinguishing call, email, and meeting origin.

Pair-specific challenges

  • SprintHub API requires direct credential access not available via public documentation

    SprintHub's API reference is hosted on a private GitBook instance (sprinthub-api-master.sprinthub.app) that is not indexed by search engines or standard developer portals. Before migration scoping can proceed, the customer must supply their SprintHub API credentials directly. Without these credentials, we cannot pre-discover field names, data types, or endpoint structure, which means field mapping validation happens during the discovery phase rather than before it. This adds time to the initial scoping step and requires the customer to be actively engaged before we can produce a fixed-price quote.

  • WhatsApp multi-account channel routing does not map to Nutshell

    SprintHub's native support for multiple WhatsApp accounts per instance is a core differentiator for Brazilian teams managing client-facing and internal numbers through one interface. Nutshell does not have native WhatsApp support; WhatsApp interactions in Nutshell are logged as activity entries against a Person or Company record. We preserve SprintHub WhatsApp conversation metadata (account reference, contact, timestamp, message summary) as activity records in Nutshell, but the channel routing logic and multi-account account management does not migrate. The customer must reconfigure WhatsApp routing through a third-party integration (such as a WhatsApp Business API connector) post-migration if multi-account routing is required.

  • Nutshell requires custom fields pre-created before data import

    Nutshell's import model requires custom fields to be created in the destination CRM before importing data that references them. According to Nutshell's Help Center guidance, creating custom fields before import prevents mapping errors and reduces failed record imports. We pre-create all SprintHub custom fields in Nutshell via the API as the first step in the migration process. If custom fields are not pre-created, records containing custom field values will be rejected or truncated on first import, requiring a re-run. This is a known friction point documented in third-party Nutshell migration guides (AeroLeads, ClonePartner).

  • SprintHub automation rules and workflows do not migrate to Nutshell

    SprintHub automation rules (trigger conditions, filter logic, and multi-step action sequences) are stored in a proprietary format that does not have a direct Nutshell equivalent. Nutshell's automation capabilities are structured differently and are also tier-dependent (Marketing and Engagement suites are paid add-ons). We export automation definitions as structured JSON with trigger templates and action outlines, but rebuilding equivalent automations in Nutshell requires manual reconfiguration by the customer's admin or a Nutshell implementation partner. We do not migrate workflows as code within the standard migration scope.

  • SprintHub social media campaign data has no direct Nutshell equivalent

    SprintHub stores social media campaign records and performance metrics in its social module. Nutshell is a sales CRM and does not have a social media management component. We export available campaign records and performance data as a structured JSON export, but this data does not have a native destination in Nutshell. The customer may choose to integrate a separate social media management tool post-migration or use Nutshell's integration ecosystem to connect an existing social tool.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful SprintHub to Nutshell data migration

  1. SprintHub API credential collection and schema discovery

    We request SprintHub API credentials from the customer and use them to explore the endpoint schema directly, since the API is not publicly indexed. We retrieve object lists, field definitions, custom field schemas, pipeline definitions, stage configurations, and tag metadata. This step determines the exact field names and data types available for mapping and is required before we can produce a fixed-price migration quote. The customer must have an active SprintHub subscription and API access provisioned.

  2. Nutshell account provisioning and custom field pre-creation

    The customer provisions a Nutshell account at the appropriate tier. We create all custom fields in Nutshell via the Nutshell API (or guide the customer's admin through manual creation using Nutshell's settings interface) before any record import. Nutshell requires custom fields to exist before data containing those field values can be imported; creating them after the fact triggers re-runs. We also configure Nutshell Pipelines and Stages to match the SprintHub pipeline structure during this step.

  3. Sandbox migration and reconciliation

    We run a sample migration into the customer's Nutshell account using a representative subset of SprintHub data. The customer reviews the migrated records (Person, Company, Lead, Opportunity) against the SprintHub source and confirms that field mapping, tag associations, and stage names are correct. Mapping corrections and custom field additions happen at this stage. No production data moves until sign-off.

  4. Owner reconciliation and User provisioning

    We extract every distinct SprintHub Owner referenced on Leads, Contacts, Companies, and Deals and match them by email against the Nutshell User table. Owners without a matching Nutshell User are held in a reconciliation queue. The customer's admin provisions any missing Nutshell Users (active or inactive depending on whether the SprintHub owner is still active on the team). Migration cannot proceed to production record import until all Owner-to-User references are resolved because Nutshell requires an OwnerId on most standard objects.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies (created first as the top-level entity), People (with CompanyId resolved), Leads (with OwnerId resolved), Opportunities (with PersonId, CompanyId, OwnerId, and Pipeline/Stage resolved), Tags (re-associated to migrated records), and Activity history (calls, emails, meetings, tasks as activity log entries). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. Engagement history is the last phase because it depends on all parent records existing.

  6. Cutover, delta sync, and automation rebuild handoff

    We freeze SprintHub writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of records modified during the migration window, then enable Nutshell as the system of record. We deliver the SprintHub automation workflow inventory (as JSON) and social media campaign data export to the customer's admin team. We do not rebuild SprintHub automations in Nutshell within the standard migration scope. We support a one-week post-migration window to resolve reconciliation issues reported by the team. WhatsApp routing reconfiguration is a separate engagement requiring a third-party WhatsApp Business API integration.
