Migrate your Wintouch CRM data
IBM i (AS/400) native CRM with on-premise and cloud deployment options, targeting mid-market companies that need deep ERP integration over modern UX.
In its favor
Why people choose Wintouch CRM
The signal that keeps Wintouch CRM on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Organizations with existing IBM i (AS/400) infrastructure choose Wintouch because it integrates directly with their legacy ERP without requiring middleware or API rewrites.
Small to mid-market teams use Wintouch as an all-in-one alternative to paying for separate CRM, ERP, and project management subscriptions.
Companies with 35+ years of accumulated IBM i data select Wintouch to avoid ripping out a system that already holds their business history.
Teams with minimal IT resources value that Wintouch can be deployed on-premise, giving them control over hosting without a full cloud migration.
Sales teams operating in field-service or manufacturing verticals choose Wintouch for its customizable pipeline and activity tracking built around B2B account hierarchies.
Limited modern integrations — no robust public API documentation and weak mobile app UX compared to cloud-native CRMs that teams expect in 2025.
Sparse third-party review volume and community support makes troubleshooting issues difficult when problems arise.
The platform's Java-based architecture on IBM i feels dated to teams accustomed to browser-based SaaS CRMs with faster UI responsiveness.
Custom field flexibility means that as teams grow, the system configuration becomes complex to maintain and difficult to migrate from.
Small review sample size on G2 (1 review) signals a niche product with limited market traction, making long-term vendor stability a concern.

Pricing tiers
Wintouch CRM pricing overview
Wintouch CRM does not publish pricing publicly. Costs are negotiated directly with Touchtone based on deployment model (on-premise or cloud), number of users, and which modules are activated. Organizations with existing IBM i infrastructure should expect pricing to be bundled with implementation and ongoing AS/400 support contracts.

What gets migrated
Wintouch CRM object support
Object-by-object support for Wintouch CRM migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Contacts
Fully supportedContacts export is available via the UI at Contacts > Options > Export Contacts. Standard fields map cleanly to any destination CRM. Custom fields are added through the Contacts > Custom Fields tab and require explicit field-by-field mapping during migration.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredWintouch allows per-object custom field creation. Each custom field must be identified individually during the scoping phase. Field type translation (dropdown vs. free text) must be validated before mapping to the destination schema.
Activities
Mapping requiredActivities screen captures completed tasks and scheduled work. Users can add additional fields to the activity screen in newer versions. Activity date formats and user assignment must be normalized during extraction to preserve historical timeline.
Leads
Mapping requiredLead generation includes custom web forms and auto-assignment workflows. Lead-to-contact conversion logic needs to be reconstructed at the destination, as the workflow triggers are not exportable as data.
Accounts
Fully supportedAccount records support B2B and B2C types, multiple contacts per account, and multiple addresses. Standard field extraction is straightforward; address normalization is required for international accounts.
Reports
Mapping requiredWintouch stores one-click reports in a centralized repository. The report definitions and layout configurations do not export as data — only the underlying record data can be migrated. Report重建 must happen at the destination.
Pipeline Stages
Mapping requiredPipeline stages are customizable per organization. Stage names and ordering must be mapped explicitly to the destination CRM's pipeline configuration. Historical deal stage history is preserved as a data field but stage transitions may not carry over as workflow triggers.
Tasks
Fully supportedTask assignment and tracking are standard objects. Owner assignment needs to be mapped to destination users. Completed vs. open task filtering should be agreed upon before migration.
Attachments
Mapping requiredFile attachments stored within Wintouch are not covered by a documented bulk export endpoint. We extract available attachments via available file paths and map them to the corresponding contact or activity record at the destination.
Geographic Data
Mapping requiredWintouch can generate latitude/longitude coordinates for addresses, but only within North America. International addresses may lack geo-coordinates. We flag missing geo-data during extraction and optionally defer geo-enrichment to the destination platform.
