Overview
Wintouch CRM stores contacts, companies, deals, activities, and custom fields in a structured but proprietary object model that was designed primarily for IBM iSeries / AS/400 environments. HubSpot's Smart CRM uses a flat object graph — Contacts, Companies, Deals (Opportunities), and Tickets — with all custom data stored as HubSpot Properties on each object. The two platforms share enough structural overlap that most standard fields map directly, but Wintouch's per-module customization, its AS/400-centric data architecture, and its workflow and automation engine require careful translation work before migration. We extract Wintouch data via its export and API layer, then map every field to HubSpot's corresponding property using a combination of direct name matches, type-aware transformations, and custom property creation for Wintouch-specific fields that have no native HubSpot equivalent. The migration runs in two phases: a sample migration with a field-level diff so you can verify mapping accuracy before the full run commits, followed by a delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours to capture any in-flight changes during cutover. Workflows, sequences, automations, and report configurations are not migrated — those are destination-side schema decisions that have to be rebuilt in HubSpot's automation tools.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Wintouch CRM object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Wintouch CRM
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1Wintouch contacts map directly to HubSpot Contacts. All standard properties — name, email, phone, job title, address fields — migrate as HubSpot native properties. Contacts without a primary company get a placeholder association in HubSpot and can be linked to a company record manually post-migration.
Wintouch CRM
Company
HubSpot
Company
1:1Wintouch company records map to HubSpot Companies. HubSpot's single-company-per-contact model means Wintouch contacts associated with multiple companies get their primary company link migrated and secondary associations noted as a custom property for manual reconciliation. Additional company fields such as industry, annual revenue, and address are also transferred to HubSpot native properties, preserving the original data for downstream reporting.
Wintouch CRM
Deal / Pipeline
HubSpot
Deal
1:1Wintouch deals and their associated pipeline stages migrate to HubSpot Deals. Pipeline stage names are mapped value-by-value to HubSpot Deal pipeline stages. Amount fields, close dates, deal owners, and deal names transfer as HubSpot Deal properties, preserving original timestamps and ensuring that historical stage transitions are retained for reporting continuity.
Wintouch CRM
Pipeline Stage
HubSpot
Deal Stage
1:1Wintouch stage names (e.g., Prospecting, Proposal, Negotiation) are mapped to HubSpot Deal stage pick-list values on a one-to-one basis. Stage order and probability weights are preserved as HubSpot deal properties for forecasting continuity, allowing sales managers to maintain accurate pipeline reporting without manual reconfiguration after migration.
Wintouch CRM
Custom Fields (per module)
HubSpot
Custom Properties
1:1Every Wintouch custom field identified in the pre-migration audit is created as a HubSpot custom property before data lands. Field type matching is applied: single-line text → single-line text, pick-list → pick-list, date → date. Fields with no HubSpot type equivalent are created as single-line text with the original value preserved.
Wintouch CRM
Email Log / Activity
HubSpot
Engagement (Email)
1:1Wintouch email log entries migrate to HubSpot engagements with the email subject, body, timestamp, and associated contact/company links preserved. Original owner is mapped to the HubSpot user by email match, and any emails lacking a valid owner are assigned to a designated fallback HubSpot user to ensure complete record attribution.
Wintouch CRM
Call Log
HubSpot
Engagement (Call)
1:1Wintouch call records migrate to HubSpot engagements with call direction (inbound/outbound), outcome, duration, and timestamp preserved. Each call is linked to the contact record in HubSpot via the engagement association model, ensuring that call history is visible on the contact timeline for sales reps reviewing past interactions.
Wintouch CRM
Meeting / Task
HubSpot
Engagement (Meeting)
1:1Wintouch meeting and task records migrate to HubSpot engagements. Meeting title, start/end time, location, and outcome fields are mapped to HubSpot engagement properties. Owner is resolved by email match to HubSpot users, and any unmatched owners are flagged for manual assignment before the migration finalizes.
Wintouch CRM
Note / Attachment
HubSpot
Note / File
1:1Wintouch notes migrate to HubSpot Notes with the original body text preserved. Attachments are downloaded from Wintouch and re-uploaded to HubSpot Files, then linked to the appropriate Contact, Company, or Deal record. The file URLs are stored as custom properties on the associated HubSpot record for quick access.
Wintouch CRM
User / Owner
HubSpot
User
1:1Wintouch owner records are matched to HubSpot users by email address. Unmatched owners are flagged as part of the migration plan so your team can either create HubSpot user accounts for them or assign their records to a fallback HubSpot owner before the migration runs.
Wintouch CRM
Workflow / Automation
HubSpot
HubSpot Workflow (rebuild required)
1:1Wintouch workflows and automation sequences do not have a migration path to HubSpot because the underlying trigger logic, condition trees, and action sequences are destination-specific. We export your Wintouch workflow definitions as a reference document for your HubSpot admin to rebuild using HubSpot's Workflows tool.
Wintouch CRM
Report / Dashboard
HubSpot
HubSpot Report / Dashboard (rebuild required)
1:1Wintouch report configurations and dashboards are not migrated. The underlying data (deals, activities, contacts) migrates cleanly, so the reports can be rebuilt in HubSpot Analytics with the same data available. We flag which HubSpot report types correspond to your existing Wintouch reports.
Wintouch CRM
Multi-Address Record
HubSpot
Company Address (primary) + Custom Property
1:1Wintouch supports multiple addresses per company or contact record. HubSpot stores a single primary address on each Company and Contact. We migrate the primary address and surface secondary addresses as a custom multi-line text property for manual review and entry post-migration.

Migration approach
Audit Wintouch data and build the field mapping plan
We extract a full snapshot of your Wintouch data — contacts, companies, deals, activities, custom fields, and owner records — using Wintouch's export capabilities. We audit the data for multi-value fields, empty required properties, non-standard date formats, and any records that reference Wintouch modules outside the CRM scope (e.g., ERP-lite data). The audit output is a field-by-field mapping spreadsheet that names every Wintouch field and its HubSpot equivalent, identifies fields requiring custom property creation, and flags owner resolution gaps. This document is the migration contract — nothing moves until you sign off on it.
Pre-create HubSpot custom properties and configure pipelines
Before data is written to HubSpot, we create every custom property identified in the field mapping plan using HubSpot's Property settings API. Pipeline stages are configured to match Wintouch's stage names and order. For pick-list fields (deal stage, industry, call outcome), the pick-list values are entered in HubSpot to match Wintouch's exact values so no data is dropped on import. This step runs in a HubSpot staging portal if available, or in your production portal during a low-activity window, and typically completes within one business day.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of your data — typically 100 to 500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and a cross-section of custom fields — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff report that shows every field value in Wintouch alongside its HubSpot counterpart after migration. You review the diff to verify that pick-list values mapped correctly, timestamps are preserved, owner resolution worked, and multi-address records are handled as expected. We iterate on the field mapping based on your feedback before the full migration runs.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window and audit log
The full dataset migrates to HubSpot with all objects written in the correct sequence — companies first (to resolve foreign keys), then contacts, then deals, then activities and engagements. A delta-pickup window of 24 to 48 hours runs after the initial load to capture any records created or modified in Wintouch during the cutover. Every migration operation is logged in an audit trail. If reconciliation reveals missing records or incorrect field values, one-click rollback reverts the HubSpot state to the pre-migration snapshot so the migration can be re-run without data corruption.
