Overview
Moving from UPNIFY CRM to Twenty CRM is a lateral shift for LATAM SMB teams moving to a self-hosted or cloud-deployed open-source CRM with a modern interface. UPNIFY's data model centers on Clients (Contacts), Companies, Opportunities, Prospects, and Quotations with embedded exchange-rate metadata. We sequence the migration in dependency order — Companies first, then Clients, then Opportunities — to satisfy parent-record lookup requirements in Twenty. Multi-currency Quotation records carry embedded exchange-rate arrays that must be flattened into a single price field before import. UPNIFY's API is not publicly documented and access is gated by plan tier, so we supplement API export with bulk CSV extracts from the Administration panel. Workflows, Flow task automation, Connect (WhatsApp) bundles, and Integrations do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild in Twenty.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a UPNIFY CRM object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
UPNIFY CRM
Client
Twenty CRM
Person
1:1UPNIFY Client records map directly to Twenty Person. Standard fields (name, email, mobile phone, company association) migrate 1:1. Custom client fields map as key-value pairs into Twenty's custom field infrastructure. We sequence Person import after Company to satisfy the company relationship. Spanish-language field names in UPNIFY's API responses are normalized to English equivalents during transformation.
UPNIFY CRM
Company
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1UPNIFY Company records map 1:1 to Twenty Company. Company is imported before Person to establish the parent record for the company-person relationship. Domain, address, industry, and size fields map to their Twenty equivalents. Multi-branch companies stored as separate UPNIFY Company records migrate as separate Twenty Company records.
UPNIFY CRM
Opportunity
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1UPNIFY Opportunities map to Twenty Opportunities with the stage mapping provided by the customer during scoping. Pipeline stage names and IDs from UPNIFY's customizable stage configuration are mapped to Twenty stage values via a customer-supplied stage-mapp table. Opportunity amount, close date, owner, and company association migrate directly. Notes and comments attach to the Opportunity record in Twenty.
UPNIFY CRM
Prospect
Twenty CRM
Person or Opportunity
1:manyUPNIFY Prospects represent pre-qualified leads in a separate object from Clients. We assess each Prospect's lifecycle stage and business context to determine whether it belongs as a Person record (unqualified lead) or an Opportunity (qualified deal) in Twenty. Prospect lifecycle-stage values that do not map directly are preserved as a custom field for the customer's admin to assign meaning to post-migration.
UPNIFY CRM
Quotation
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (Quote) or Opportunity
1:1UPNIFY Quotations carry product line items, pricing, currency, and embedded exchange-rate metadata as a nested array. The multi-currency metadata is flattened into a single price field during transformation — we extract the applicable rate at quotation date and compute a normalized amount. If Twenty's Opportunity model is sufficient for the customer's quoting workflow, quotations merge into Opportunities as custom fields. If a separate Quote custom object is needed, we pre-create it with line-item fields before migration.
UPNIFY CRM
Product (Catalog)
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (Product)
1:1UPNIFY Products under Catalogs migrate to a Twenty Custom Object named Product with fields for name, SKU, description, and price. Stock-level data is not consistently populated in UPNIFY and is flagged as absent during scoping. Products are imported before Quotations so that product references resolve during quotation migration.
UPNIFY CRM
Goal
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (Goal) or Note
1:1Goals track team or user-level sales targets with period, target value, and owner assignment. We migrate Goals as a Twenty Custom Object with period, target value, owner, and status fields. Goals are user-scoped so we resolve the owner email to the corresponding Twenty workspace member. If Twenty's standard objects suffice for the customer's goal-tracking workflow, Goals migrate as Note records attached to the relevant user.
UPNIFY CRM
Calendar (Task and Reminder)
Twenty CRM
Task and Event
1:1Calendar entries including tasks, reminders, and appointments migrate to Twenty Task and Event records with owner, due date, status, and description preserved. Completed versus open status maps directly. Recurring tasks are migrated as individual Task records with a custom recurrence flag. Task assignment resolves the UPNIFY owner email to the corresponding Twenty workspace member.
UPNIFY CRM
Tag Segmentation
Twenty CRM
Custom Field (Multi-Select Picklist)
lossyTags applied across UPNIFY Clients, Companies, and Opportunities are exported per object. In Twenty, we create a custom multi-select picklist field per object (e.g., client_segment, company_industry_tag) and populate it with the source tag values. Tag vocabulary is preserved during migration and the customer decides whether to normalize or expand the tag taxonomy post-migration.
UPNIFY CRM
Custom Field
Twenty CRM
Custom Field
1:1Custom fields on UPNIFY Clients, Companies, and Opportunities map to Twenty custom fields of equivalent type (text, number, date, dropdown). We pre-create all destination custom fields in Twenty's Data Model before any data import, following Twenty's requirement that fields must exist before CSV import. Type mismatches (e.g., a UPNIFY dropdown with an unmapped option) are flagged and resolved with the customer before migration.
UPNIFY CRM
User
Twenty CRM
Workspace Member
1:1UPNIFY Users are resolved by email address to Twenty workspace members. Active versus inactive status is preserved, but UPNIFY role and permission sets do not map to Twenty's role model and require manual reassignment post-migration. We flag any UPNIFY user without a matching Twenty member for the customer admin to provision.
UPNIFY CRM
Flow (Task Automation)
Twenty CRM
Not migrated
1:1UPNIFY Flow prepaid task bundles (Flow 200 at $89 for 200 tasks) operate on a volume model distinct from seat-based CRM pricing. Flow tasks, process stages, timing controls, and SLA escalation rules do not have a native equivalent in Twenty and are not migrated. We export Flow task data as a structured CSV inventory for the customer's admin to review and recreate as Twenty workflow steps or manual tasks.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
UPNIFY CRM gotchas
No month-to-month billing — annual or semi-annual commitment required upfront
WhatsApp conversation bundles are priced separately and use a credit model
MAX suite pricing bundles four products — CRM seat count affects total cost
Flow task automation uses a prepaid volume model distinct from seat-based billing
API documentation is not publicly exposed at a developer portal
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and data audit
We audit the source UPNIFY account across all active products (CRM, Engage, Connect, Flow) to establish which data is in scope. We assess record counts per object (Clients, Companies, Opportunities, Prospects, Quotations, Products, Goals, Calendar), identify custom fields and tag vocabularies, and probe API access level. We also review the customer's annual contract end date and any pre-paid periods to coordinate billing with the migration timeline. The discovery output is a written migration scope with object counts, custom field inventory, and a recommendation on whether API or bulk CSV extraction will be used for each object.
Stage mapping and schema design
We collect the customer's UPNIFY pipeline stage configuration (stage names, IDs, order, and probability percentages) and map each to a corresponding Twenty Opportunity stage value. For Prospects, we define the split logic: which lifecycle-stage values map to Twenty Persons and which map to Opportunities. We design the Twenty workspace schema including custom objects (Quote, Product, Goal), custom fields, and tag-field configuration. Custom fields are deployed to Twenty before any data import begins.
Owner reconciliation and workspace provisioning
We extract every distinct UPNIFY owner referenced across all migrating objects and match by email against Twenty workspace members. UPNIFY users without a matching Twenty member are held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision. Owner resolution must be complete before any record import because OwnerId references are required on Opportunity and Task records. We recommend inviting all active UPNIFY users to the Twenty workspace before this step begins.
Multi-currency quotation preprocessing
We run the quotation flattening step before main migration: extracting exchange-rate metadata from UPNIFY Quotation records, computing normalized amounts in the target currency, and producing a clean quotation CSV ready for Twenty import. Quotations that reference Products are held until the Product custom object is created in Twenty. This preprocessing step runs in parallel with the schema deployment and owner reconciliation steps to minimize the critical path.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies first (establishing the parent record), then Persons (resolving company lookups), then Opportunities (resolving company and owner lookups), then Prospects (with the split logic applied), then Products, Quotations, Goals, Tasks, Events, and tag fields last. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. If bulk CSV extraction was used due to API limitations, we apply additional transformation logic to flatten nested fields and multi-select tags during this phase.
Cutover, validation, and rebuild handoff
We freeze UPNIFY writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then designate Twenty as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow and Flow inventory document to the customer's admin for rebuild in Twenty's workflow builder, the quotation inventory with normalized amounts, and the tag vocabulary as a CSV. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild UPNIFY Workflows or Flow processes as Twenty workflows inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement.
