Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from WayMore to Twenty CRM is a platform-shift migration where the source is an omnichannel marketing automation tool with CRM features and the destination is a self-hosted open-source CRM. WayMore has no documented REST API or bulk export endpoint, so we extract via CSV exports from the dashboard and document the steps required to supplement any data that cannot be retrieved automatically. We map Contact records to Twenty People, Company records to Twenty Companies, and Deals to Twenty Opportunities. WayMore's automation workflows, chatbot flows, and dynamic segment rules do not migrate as logic; we capture their structure as structured documentation and deliver a rebuild guide for your admin. Push notification device tokens and chatbot sessions are not portable between platforms. WayMore's marketing assets (email templates, images, media files) cannot be exported via any documented mechanism and must be downloaded manually. Twenty's CSV import process requires custom fields and custom objects to be pre-created in the Data Model before any records load; we handle that schema setup before any data moves.

Field-level fidelity

Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Schema-aware mapping

AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.

Relationships preserved

Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Full activity history

Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.

Attachments & notes

Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

WayMore

What's pushing teams away

  • Customer service response times are slower than expected despite 24/7 support claims on G2 reviews
  • eSignature feature set is not as comprehensive as standalone solutions
  • User interface can be less intuitive for new users learning the platform for the first time
  • Integration with other software may require higher-tier plans limiting cross-platform workflows
  • eSignature functionality noted as a gap compared to competitors

Choosing

Twenty CRM logo

Twenty CRM

What's pulling them in

  • Top open-source CRM on GitHub with 40.6K stars, giving teams full source code access and infrastructure ownership without per-feature licensing surprises.
  • Free self-hosting under AGPL-3.0 means unlimited users and custom objects for the cost of cloud infrastructure alone, typically $20–100/month.
  • Pricing page explicitly mocks competitors for charging add-on fees for API access, webhooks, and workflows — transparency that resonates with RevOps teams burned by Salesforce.
  • Unlimited custom objects and fields with no price impact, letting teams shape the data model to their business rather than forcing business into rigid schemas.
  • Modern TypeScript/React/PostgreSQL stack means developer-led teams can extend, self-host, or integrate without fighting legacy architecture.

Object mapping

How WayMore objects map to Twenty CRM

Each row shows how a WayMore 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.

WayMore

Contact

maps to

Twenty CRM

People

1:1
Fully supported

WayMore Contact records export via CSV from the dashboard contacts section and map to Twenty People. Core fields (name, email, phone, address) transfer directly. Behavioral data stored as custom properties on the Contact (e.g., last visited page, lead score, acquisition channel) map to Twenty custom fields that we pre-create in the Data Model before import. We preserve any opt-out or suppression status from WayMore as a boolean custom field in Twenty. WayMore's email subscription preferences migrate to the Twenty People emailOptOut field for compliance.

WayMore

Company

maps to

Twenty CRM

Company

1:1
Fully supported

WayMore Company records map to Twenty Company records. The Company domain from WayMore becomes the Company website field. We create the Company record before importing any People that reference it so that the workspace-company link resolves at import time. If a WayMore Contact has no associated Company, it migrates as a standalone Twenty People record.

WayMore

Deal

maps to

Twenty CRM

Opportunity

1:1
Fully supported

WayMore Deal records map to Twenty Opportunity records. The deal amount, stage, close date, and associated contacts migrate directly. WayMore's deal pipeline names map to Twenty Opportunity stage values, which we configure in the Twenty workspace before migration. If WayMore Deals reference a Company, we link the Opportunity to the corresponding Twenty Company via the workspaceId reference.

WayMore

Custom Fields (Contact and Company)

maps to

Twenty CRM

Custom Fields (People and Company)

1:1
Fully supported

WayMore custom properties on Contact and Company records map to Twenty custom fields on People and Company objects. We create the custom fields in Twenty's Data Model before importing records. Type preservation (text, number, date, single-select, multi-select) requires field-by-field review because WayMore CSV exports do not carry field type metadata. We flag any fields where type cannot be determined from the source data and recommend a default mapping during scoping.

WayMore

Email Campaign

maps to

Twenty CRM

Note or Comment (documentation)

lossy
Fully supported

WayMore email campaign records (subject, content, send history) do not have a direct functional equivalent in Twenty CRM, which does not include native email campaign management. We export campaign metadata and content as structured documentation and attach it as a Note on the associated Twenty People records, or deliver it as a supplementary CSV so that the customer's admin can reference the content when rebuilding campaigns in an email platform of their choice.

WayMore

SMS Message

maps to

Twenty CRM

Note (documentation)

lossy
Fully supported

WayMore SMS campaign records and message templates export via CSV. Twenty CRM does not have native SMS campaign management. We export SMS template content and opt-out status as structured data attached to the associated Twenty People records, preserving opt-out compliance data. The customer uses the migrated opt-out status to configure their chosen SMS platform.

WayMore

Segment

maps to

Twenty CRM

Static list (People filter or tag)

lossy
Fully supported

WayMore segments are defined by dynamic rules that update automatically based on contact behavior. These dynamic rules cannot be replicated in Twenty's data model, which does not include a native segmentation engine. We export the current membership list for each WayMore segment as a static CSV of contact identifiers and deliver it as a named static filter in Twenty, or as a tag applied to the relevant People records. The segment will not auto-update after migration without manual reconfiguration in Twenty.

WayMore

Tag

maps to

Twenty CRM

Tag

1:1
Fully supported

WayMore tags applied to Contacts for labeling and filtering map directly to Twenty Tags on People records. We extract tag names from the CSV export and apply them to the corresponding Twenty People records during migration. Tags used for marketing categorization (e.g., campaign source, list membership) are preserved as tags in Twenty alongside any new tagging schema the customer defines.

WayMore

Automation Workflow

maps to

Twenty CRM

Workflow inventory (documentation)

lossy
Fully supported

WayMore automation workflows include triggers, conditions, delays, and actions governing customer journey behavior. These workflow definitions and execution state cannot migrate to Twenty because Twenty does not include a native workflow automation engine in its CRM core. We export workflow structure as structured JSON documentation covering trigger type, conditions, step sequence, and actions for each active workflow. We deliver this as a rebuild guide the customer's admin uses to implement equivalent automation using their chosen external tooling (e.g., n8n, Make, or custom scripts). Any pending execution state at cutover is lost.

WayMore

Chatbot Flow

maps to

Twenty CRM

Flow inventory (documentation)

lossy
Fully supported

WayMore chatbot AI flows use a visual builder with decision trees and conversation logic. We export the flow structure and decision tree as structured documentation. Active chatbot sessions and conversation history do not transfer to Twenty. The customer receives a chatbot flow inventory document they can use to rebuild flows in their chosen chatbot platform or conversational AI tooling.

WayMore

Form

maps to

Twenty CRM

Form inventory (documentation)

lossy
Fully supported

WayMore lead capture forms collect contact data and trigger automations. Form definitions (field structure, submission logic) export as documentation. The form-to-automation connections require manual reconfiguration at the destination. We deliver a form inventory with field mappings the customer uses to recreate forms in their chosen form platform and reconnect them to any rebuilt automations.

Pair-specific challenges

  • WayMore has no public API for automated data extraction

    WayMore does not expose a REST API, GraphQL endpoint, or bulk export mechanism in its developer documentation. All data extraction relies on CSV exports available through the dashboard contacts, campaigns, and companies sections. Any data not surfaced in the CSV export (such as certain custom property types, behavioral event history, or tracker configurations) must be retrieved manually through the browser interface or documented as supplementary steps in our migration checklist. This limits migration speed and the completeness of historical behavioral data that can be transferred. We scope the full CSV export capability during discovery and flag any objects or fields that require manual retrieval before migration begins.

  • Automation workflow logic and execution state do not transfer

    WayMore automation workflows define customer journey logic with triggers, conditions, delays, and CRM actions. This logic cannot be replicated in Twenty CRM, which does not include a native workflow automation engine. We export workflow definitions as structured documentation but cannot migrate them as executable automation. Any contacts currently mid-workflow (with pending delays, queued messages, or conditional holds) will have that execution state reset at cutover. We document which workflows had the highest volume of active executions at the time of scoping so the customer can plan for re-engagement of any affected contacts in Twenty.

  • Email templates, images, and media files are not exportable

    Marketing assets stored in WayMore, including email templates, images, media files, and chatbot assets, cannot be exported via any documented API or bulk download mechanism. These files must be individually downloaded through the browser interface. For accounts with large asset libraries, this is a time-intensive manual step that falls outside the scope of automated migration. We flag the complete asset inventory during scoping and provide a structured checklist-based download guide so the customer's team can retrieve assets in parallel with the data migration.

  • Dynamic segment rules become static snapshots

    WayMore segments are defined by dynamic behavioral rules (e.g., contacts who visited a specific page more than twice or opened more than three emails in the last 30 days) that update automatically. These dynamic rules cannot be replicated in Twenty's static data model. We export the current contact membership of each segment as a static list of People identifiers and deliver it as a named filter or tag group in Twenty. The migrated list will not update automatically when new contacts meet the original criteria, so the customer should plan to recreate segment logic in their chosen marketing or analytics platform post-migration.

  • Push notification device tokens are not portable

    WayMore push notification campaigns store subscriber device tokens that are platform-specific identifiers tied to mobile applications. These tokens cannot be transferred to a new platform because they are bound to the originating app's push certificate and push service configuration. We export push notification campaign records and subscriber counts as documentation, but the actual device subscriptions must be re-established by the customer after migration by re-prompting mobile app users to opt in to push notifications from the new platform.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful WayMore to Twenty CRM data migration

  1. Discovery and CSV export audit

    We audit the WayMore account to identify all available CSV exports (Contacts, Companies, Deals, Campaigns, Segments) and document which objects and custom fields appear in each export. We cross-reference the export contents against the customer's stated migration goals to identify gaps. We also identify any data accessible only through the browser interface, such as asset libraries, chatbot flows, or tracker configurations, and produce a supplementary manual retrieval checklist. The discovery output is a written migration scope that lists every object, field, and asset with a transport plan (automated CSV, manual download, or documentation capture).

  2. Twenty workspace preparation

    Before any records load, we set up the Twenty CRM workspace to match the incoming data model. This includes creating any custom fields on the People and Company objects in Settings Data Model, creating any custom objects the customer requires, defining picklist values for any single-select or multi-select fields sourced from WayMore tags or segments, and inviting team members to Twenty so that owner references can resolve during import. We follow Twenty's documented requirement that fields must exist in the Data Model before CSV import, not during.

  3. Data cleansing and field mapping

    We review the WayMore CSV exports for data quality issues: duplicate contact records, missing required fields (name, email), inconsistent date formats, and malformed phone numbers. We design a field mapping document that pairs each WayMore export column to its corresponding Twenty field, noting any type transformations (e.g., WayMore date strings to ISO 8601 format, phone numbers stripped of non-numeric characters). We flag any WayMore custom fields where the data type cannot be inferred from the export and recommend a Twenty field type during this phase. This mapping document is reviewed and approved before any data is loaded.

  4. Sandbox migration and reconciliation

    We run a full migration into a Twenty workspace using production-like data volume to validate the field mapping, record counts, and relationship resolution. The customer's team reviews a sample of migrated records against the WayMore source data, spot-checking key fields (email, company association, deal amount, tag list). We resolve any mapping errors identified during reconciliation before proceeding to production migration. This step catches field type mismatches, missing picklist values, and lookup resolution failures before they affect live data.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run the production migration in dependency order: People first (from WayMore Contacts), then Companies (from WayMore Companies), then Opportunities (from WayMore Deals, with Company lookup resolved). Tags and segment membership apply as a post-processing step on People records. Email campaign and SMS metadata attach as Notes on the associated People records. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We run the delta catch-up pass to capture any records modified in WayMore during the migration window before cutover.

  6. Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff

    We freeze WayMore as the system of record at cutover and run a final delta pass. We deliver the full migrated dataset with a row-count sign-off and a field-level spot-check report. We deliver the automation inventory document covering all WayMore workflows, chatbot flows, and forms with their structure and trigger logic documented for rebuild. We do not rebuild workflows in Twenty as that requires the customer's admin to select and configure their preferred automation tooling. We offer a one-week hypercare window to resolve any data issues raised by the team after they begin using Twenty.

Most migrations land between two and four weeks for accounts under 15,000 Contacts, 3,000 Companies, and 2,000 Deals with clean CSV exports and no custom objects. Migrations with custom fields requiring type-by-type review, segment membership lists exceeding 20,000 entries, custom objects with cross-lookups, or manual asset downloads move to four to eight weeks. The primary time variable for WayMore migrations is how much data requires manual browser-based retrieval rather than CSV export, and whether the customer has the bandwidth to handle asset downloads in parallel with the migration.
