Overview
Moving from Swift Digital Suite to Monday.com CRM is an architecture-level migration. Swift Digital Suite organises data around Contacts, Campaigns (email, SMS, event), and Communication Assets — a campaign-centric model with engagement scoring, segment tagging, and channel-specific opt-out flags. Monday.com CRM uses a board-item structure where People are items on a CRM board, Companies are separate boards or items, and pipeline stages map to Status columns. We extract via Swift's dashboard export path (no public bulk API), normalise the contact and engagement data, and import into Monday's CRM entities using the Monday API. Survey conditional logic, workflow automation definitions, and engagement score algorithms do not migrate as functional equivalents — we document these for manual rebuild in Monday. Channel-specific email and SMS opt-out flags in Swift collapse into a single unsubscribe state in Monday's People board to avoid accidental re-engagement on either channel.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Swift Digital Suite 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.
Swift Digital Suite
Contact
monday CRM
Person (People board item)
1:1Swift Digital Suite Contacts map to Monday.com People board items. Each Person item carries the contact's email, name, phone, custom properties, segment tags, lifecycle stage, and engagement score as typed columns. Swift's engagement score migrates as a Number column (original_score__c) to preserve the historical value; Monday does not recalculate it. Email opt-out and SMS opt-out flags collapse into Monday's single Person unsubscribe column — if either flag is true in Swift, the Person is marked as unsubscribed in Monday.
Swift Digital Suite
Segment
monday CRM
Tag or Group
lossySwift Segments group Contacts by behavioural or demographic criteria. Each segment name migrates as a Tag applied to the corresponding Person item in Monday. If the customer uses segments as primary audience filters for campaigns, we also configure a Segment column (List type) on the People board so that group membership is visible as a column value rather than a tag alone. The customer chooses tag versus column during scoping based on how they plan to use segments in Monday.
Swift Digital Suite
Campaign
monday CRM
Board (with Group structure)
1:1Swift Campaigns (email sends, event invitations, survey triggers) map to Monday CRM boards. Each Swift Campaign becomes a named Group within a CRM board, with campaign metadata (name, type, created date, status) stored in board-level columns or a dedicated Info item. Active or paused campaign state is preserved in a Status column. Campaign-to-contact assignments are reconstructed by linking the Person items from the contact export to the relevant Campaign group via a Connect Boards column or a Tag.
Swift Digital Suite
Email Send / Email History
monday CRM
Activity (Emails & Activities column)
1:1Individual email sends from Swift (send timestamp, open timestamp, click events, bounce status) map to Monday's Emails & Activities feature on each Person item. Each send appears as an activity entry in the Person's timeline with the send date, engagement event (opened, clicked), and campaign name. We normalise the Swift engagement event schema into Monday's activity types: sent, delivered, opened, clicked, bounced, unsubscribed. Bounce and unsubscribe events update the Person's status fields in Monday.
Swift Digital Suite
Survey
monday CRM
Form integration or Board item structure
1:1Swift survey definitions (question text, answer types, response data) migrate as structured records. We export all questions and answer options, then map survey responses as separate items or as column entries on the related Person item in Monday. Conditional branching and skip logic defined inside Swift are not exposed in the export — we extract a flat response table and confirm with the customer whether the destination survey tool (Monday Forms or a connected tool) needs equivalent branching to be rebuilt manually, or whether a flat response log is sufficient for reporting.
Swift Digital Suite
Event
monday CRM
Board item with Status and Date columns
1:1Swift events (registration records, ticket type, attendance status, RSVP history) map to Monday board items within a dedicated Events board. Each registration becomes an item with Status column values (registered, attended, no-show, cancelled), ticket type as a List column, and RSVP date as a Date column. Event metadata (venue, capacity, event date) migrates as a separate Info item or board columns depending on the customer's event management volume.
Swift Digital Suite
SMS Record
monday CRM
Activity (SMS column) or Text column
1:1SMS sends from Swift map to Monday's SMS activity on the Person timeline, or as a Text column (sms_history__c) containing the message content and direction (outbound/inbound). The contact's SMS consent flag merges with the unified unsubscribe field on the Person. Opt-out status for SMS from Swift (tracked separately from email opt-out) is applied to the Person unsubscribe column so that any SMS consent revocation prevents re-engagement on that channel.
Swift Digital Suite
Custom Property
monday CRM
Custom Column (typed)
lossySwift Contacts and Campaigns support custom properties with value types including text, number, date, checkbox, and dropdown. We extract all active custom property names and values, then configure identically named custom columns in Monday with matching types: text fields map to Text columns, numeric scores map to Number columns, dates map to Date columns, and multi-value selections map to List columns. Where a property name conflicts with a Monday reserved column name, we prefix with an underscore.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export sequencing
We audit Swift Digital Suite for contact volume, active segments, campaign count, engagement event history (open/click/send tables), survey datasets, event registrations, and SMS send logs. Because Swift has no bulk export API, we scope the export as a series of dashboard pulls and paginated record retrievals, agreeing on a scope-cut date for large databases to avoid pulling records created during the migration window. We also review the customer's current contract status with Swift to confirm export access is not restricted mid-subscription.
Monday CRM board structure design
We design the Monday CRM board architecture: a People board for Contacts, a Companies board (if needed) with a Connect Boards relationship to People, and a Deals board with Status columns mapped from Swift's campaign and pipeline stages. We configure all custom columns to match Swift custom property names and types, set up the Tags structure for segments, and define the Person unsubscribe column with the email-and-SMS collapse logic. Board design is validated with the customer's admin before data is imported.
Export extraction and data preparation
We execute the Swift export in batches, extracting Contacts first (with all custom properties, segment tags, and engagement scores), followed by campaign metadata, email engagement history, survey questions and responses, event registrations, and SMS records. Each export batch is normalised: email addresses are validated, date formats are standardised, and the dual opt-out flags are collapsed into the single Monday unsubscribe value. We remove duplicates using email address as the dedupe key.
Sandbox import and reconciliation
We run an initial import into a Monday test board using a subset of records (typically 500-1,000 contacts) to validate column mapping, tag application, unsubscribe logic, and activity timeline rendering. The customer's admin reviews the test import and raises any mapping corrections before full production import. Any field that requires a Monday column type change (e.g., converting a text column to a list) is reconfigured at this stage.
Production import in dependency order
We run the full production import in dependency order: People first (email, name, custom properties, tags, unsubscribe flag), then Companies (if applicable), then Deals (campaign items with Status and Date columns), then activity history (email send and engagement events as timeline entries on Person items), then survey responses, event registrations, and SMS records. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report showing records imported versus expected.
Cutover, validation, and rebuild handoff
We freeze Swift writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records created or modified during the migration window, then enable Monday as the system of record. We deliver a written document covering: all imported segment tags and their intended use, the survey flat-response table and the customer's decision on whether to rebuild branching in Monday Forms, the automation workflow inventory from Swift for manual rebuild in Monday, and the engagement score mapping for the customer's admin to decide whether to configure a new scoring model. We do not rebuild automations in Monday as part of the migration scope.
