Overview
Unanet CRM by Cosential is a purpose-built CRM for architecture, engineering, and construction firms, with deep proposal automation, pursuit-stage gating tied to project type, and financial-data connectors that sync project performance into the CRM. Monday CRM is a board-based work-management platform adapted for sales, offering unlimited pipelines, customizable columns, and no-code automations across deals, contacts, and organizations. The migration carries contacts, companies, pursuits, activities, custom properties, and attachment metadata into Monday's People, Organizations, and Deals boards. Proposal document generation, workflow automations, and Unanet Connect integrations do not transfer — those require rebuild in Monday or external tooling. FlitStack AI uses Unanet's Compass API (v1 and v2) to extract source data and Monday's REST API to load records, respecting Monday's daily call limits (1,000 on Standard, 10,000 on Pro) through batched writes. A 24–48 hour delta pickup window captures in-flight changes during cutover. This preserves data integrity and minimizes disruption to your team during the transition.
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 Unanet CRM by Cosential 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.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Contact
monday CRM
People (Contact)
1:1Unanet contacts migrate to Monday People records. Monday stores full name in a single Name field — FlitStack AI concatenates Unanet FirstName and LastName into the unified Name column. All associated company links, custom properties, activity history, and contact type data transfer with the contact record, preserving the complete contact profile in Monday's People board.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Company
monday CRM
Organization
1:1Unanet companies map to Monday Organizations. Monday supports organization-level address, website, and industry data fields. Multi-contact companies (N:N relationship in Unanet) flatten to the primary contact's organization link in Monday, with secondary contacts referencing the same Organization record to maintain company association without data duplication.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Pursuit
monday CRM
Deal
1:1Unanet pursuits map to Monday Deals. Monday's Deal Board replaces Unanet's pursuit pipeline — each Unanet pipeline stage becomes a Monday Stage column on the Deals board. Stage names, probabilities, and entered dates migrate as custom columns for reporting continuity.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Pipeline
monday CRM
Deal Board
1:1Unanet pipelines map to dedicated Monday Deal Boards. Multiple Unanet pipelines for different project types or business units become separate Monday boards, each with its own Stage columns and stage-gating logic preserved per pipeline type. This maintains the distinct sales motions your firm uses across different client segments.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Activity (Call, Email, Meeting)
monday CRM
Updates / Activity Log
1:1Unanet activity records for calls, emails, and meetings migrate as Monday Updates on the relevant People, Organization, or Deal record. Activity type, timestamp, duration, and owner are preserved as structured data within the update text or as separate custom columns on the target record for reporting purposes.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Proposal / Qualification
monday CRM
Document Attachment / Custom Field
1:1Unanet proposal automation and qualification tracking has no native Monday CRM equivalent. Proposal metadata including status, version number, submitted date, and qualification score migrates as custom columns on the associated Deal. Generated proposal documents re-upload as Monday file attachments for reference and audit trail purposes.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Tag / Label
monday CRM
Tags
1:1Unanet contact and pursuit tags migrate to Monday's Tags feature on the relevant record. Unanet's hierarchical or multi-dimensional tag structures such as tags grouped by category may require flattening or mapping to multiple separate tag fields in Monday to preserve categorization logic.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Custom Property
monday CRM
Custom Column
1:1Unanet custom fields on any object become new Monday custom columns on the corresponding board or entity. Column type is inferred from Unanet's field type including text, date, number, and dropdown selections. Pick-list values map directly to Monday dropdown options, maintaining the same value sets your team uses for data entry.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Owner / User
monday CRM
Owner
1:1Unanet owner assignments migrate to Monday's Owner column on Deals and People records. Owner resolution happens by matching Unanet owner email addresses against Monday user accounts. Unmatched owners are flagged pre-migration for your team to address — either assigned to a fallback Monday user or left unresolved pending account creation in Monday.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Attachment / File
monday CRM
File Attachment
1:1Unanet file attachments on contacts, companies, or pursuits re-upload to Monday's file storage linked to the corresponding record. Monday's 250MB file size limit per upload applies to each attachment — larger files are flagged for chunked upload approach or alternative storage solutions with link-back in Monday.
Unanet CRM by Cosential
Project Data (AEC)
monday CRM
Custom Fields / Linked Board
1:1Unanet's project-data connectors linking project performance to CRM have no Monday CRM equivalent. Relevant project identifiers, financial figures, and project status migrate as custom fields on the associated Organization or Deal. AEC firms may prefer to link to an external project-management board for comprehensive project tracking.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Unanet data inventory and API schema
FlitStack AI connects to Unanet's Compass API (v1 or v2) using your firm's API key and access credentials. We enumerate all objects — Contacts, Companies, Pursuits, Activities, Custom Properties — and capture field-level metadata including pick-list values, custom field types, and relationship definitions. This inventory drives the full mapping plan and surfaces any deprecated fields or inactive custom properties to exclude from migration.
Configure Monday workspace structure and custom columns
Before data moves, FlitStack AI provisions the Monday workspace structure: People board for contacts, Organizations board for companies, and one or more Deal boards for pipelines. We create custom columns matching every Unanet custom property and pick-list, preserving data types and dropdown options. Monday's column type constraints including date, number, dropdown, and tag formats are applied so data validates on ingest and your team sees familiar pick-list values in Monday's dropdown columns.
Resolve owner assignments by email match
Unanet owner assignments map to Monday's Owner column on Deals and People. FlitStack AI resolves each owner by matching the Unanet owner email against Monday user accounts. Any unmatched owners are flagged pre-migration — your team either creates Monday accounts first or assigns those records to a fallback owner. No record lands in Monday without a resolved owner or explicit fallback designation.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of records typically 100–500 covering contacts, companies, deals, and activities migrates first. FlitStack AI generates a field-level diff report comparing source values against Monday record values, so you can verify stage mapping accuracy, tag migration completeness, and owner resolution before the full run commits. You review and approve the sample output before we proceed to full migration execution.
Execute full migration with delta pickup and rollback
Full migration runs against Monday's API using batched writes that respect rate limits (1,000/day Standard, 10,000/day Pro). A 24–48 hour delta pickup window captures records created or modified in Unanet during cutover. FlitStack AI's audit log records every operation for reconciliation. One-click rollback remains available for 72 hours post-migration if data integrity issues require restarting the cutover.
