Overview
Moving from Wired Plus to Nutshell is a shift from a UK-built marketing automation and CRM hybrid toward a focused sales CRM built for small business teams. Wired Plus stores Contacts with email consent flags, pipeline Deals, campaign performance logs, and automation workflow definitions across an account-specific custom field schema. Nutshell uses People as the primary contact record, Companies as accounts, Deals as pipeline opportunities, and a Pipeline Stage model that differs from Wired Plus's per-account stage definitions. We extract via Wired Plus API and CSV export, preserve opt_in and source fields explicitly to meet GDPR obligations, resolve account-specific custom field labels to destination field types, and import into Nutshell's People, Companies, and Deals objects. Automation workflows, landing pages, and campaign email templates do not migrate as functional code; we deliver a written audit of these assets for the customer to rebuild in Nutshell or a dedicated marketing platform. Typical migrations complete in two to four weeks for accounts under 10,000 contacts with no complex custom object dependencies.
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 Wired Plus object lands in Nutshell, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Wired Plus
Contact
Nutshell
Person
1:1Wired Plus Contact records map directly to Nutshell People. We extract name fields, email address, phone, and custom field values via API or CSV. Opt_in and source fields are mapped explicitly to Nutshell's email subscription status fields to preserve GDPR compliance. Contact lifecycle stage or custom status fields migrate as a custom field on the Nutshell Person record rather than a native property.
Wired Plus
Company
Nutshell
Company
1:1Wired Plus Company records map to Nutshell Company records. We use Company_Name and domain fields as the dedupe key. Account-specific custom fields on Companies migrate as Nutshell custom fields on the Company object. Companies are imported before People so that Person-Company lookup relationships are resolved at insert time.
Wired Plus
Deal
Nutshell
Deal
1:1Wired Plus Deals map to Nutshell Deals with dealstage mapped to Nutshell Pipeline Stage and pipeline_id mapped to the Nutshell Pipeline assignment. Custom deal fields migrate as Nutshell custom fields on the Deal object. Closed-Lost and Closed-Won status from Wired Plus map to Nutshell deal status values.
Wired Plus
Pipeline Stages
Nutshell
Pipeline Stages
lossyWired Plus per-account pipeline stages extract as a named stage sequence. We map each stage to a Nutshell Pipeline Stage value and flag any Wired Plus stages with no direct Nutshell equivalent. The stage probability mapping (Wired Plus percentage to Nutshell stage weight) is configured before Deal import.
Wired Plus
Campaign
Nutshell
Campaign
1:1Wired Plus Campaign records migrate to Nutshell Campaign objects carrying campaign name, status, and send date. Campaign performance metrics (open rate, click rate, send count) migrate as custom fields on the Nutshell Campaign because Nutshell Campaigns are primarily attribution objects rather than detailed performance reporters. Email template content does not migrate as editable HTML.
Wired Plus
Tag
Nutshell
Tag
1:1Wired Plus tags (flat string labels on contacts and companies) migrate as tags in Nutshell. We export the full tag assignment set per contact and per company and reapply as tag assignments at the destination. Tag merging (where duplicate label variants exist) is flagged during scoping for customer review.
Wired Plus
Custom Fields
Nutshell
Custom Fields
lossyWired Plus account-specific custom fields on Contacts, Companies, and Deals are extracted via API using the field schema to resolve internal field IDs from display labels. We pre-create matching Nutshell custom fields (with type-mapped field types: text, number, date, picklist) before any record import. Picklist value sets from Wired Plus migrate as Nutshell picklist options.
Wired Plus
Automation Workflow
Nutshell
None (audit document delivered)
1:1Wired Plus automation workflows define trigger-action sequences including conditional branches and time delays. These do not migrate as functional code to Nutshell because the automation models differ. We export workflow definitions as structured metadata (trigger type, conditions, actions, delay values) in a written workflow audit document. The customer's Nutshell admin or a Nutshell partner uses this document to rebuild workflows in Nutshell's automation tools.

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.
Wired Plus gotchas
Subscription status must be explicitly preserved during export
Custom field schema is account-specific and not documented in exports
Automation workflow logic does not transfer between platforms
Nutshell gotchas
Contact tier limits enforced on import
No bulk API endpoint requires paginated extraction
Email sequences not exportable via API
Foundation plan disables key sales features
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and account audit
We audit the Wired Plus account to capture the full record schema: contact fields including custom fields and opt_in status, company fields, deal fields, pipeline stage definitions, tag library, campaign list, and automation workflow inventory. We also identify the primary use case (sales CRM, marketing automation, or hybrid) to confirm that Nutshell is the right destination and to scope the custom field resolution work. The discovery output is a written migration scope with a field-level mapping draft and a list of Wired Plus assets (workflows, landing pages) that require rebuild rather than migration.
Schema resolution and Nutshell destination setup
We pull the Wired Plus field schema via API to resolve display labels to internal field IDs. We then create the corresponding Nutshell custom fields (on People, Companies, and Deals) matching the field types from Wired Plus: text fields to Nutshell text, numeric fields to Nutshell number, date fields to Nutshell date, and picklist fields to Nutshell picklist with value sets migrated. Pipeline Stages are configured in Nutshell to match the Wired Plus stage sequence with probability weights.
Sample import and reconciliation
We run a sample migration of a representative subset of records (typically 50-200 contacts, 20-50 companies, 20-50 deals) into a Nutshell test environment. The customer reconciles field values, checks for duplicate detection accuracy, verifies that tag assignments appear correctly, and confirms that opt-in status maps as expected. Mapping corrections are made before the full migration proceeds. This step prevents the scenario where a full import completes and reconciliation reveals systematic field mapping errors.
Full production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies first (to establish the Company lookup for People), then People (with opt_in status explicitly set), then Deals (with pipeline and stage assignment resolved), then Tags (applied to People and Companies after the base records exist). Campaign metadata migrates last as a reference set for attribution. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report showing records attempted, imported, rejected, and skipped.
Cutover and post-migration validation
We freeze Wired Plus write access during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any records modified during migration, and hand off Nutshell as the system of record. We deliver the automation workflow audit document and landing page HTML export for the customer to begin rebuild work. We support a post-migration validation window where the customer's team spot-checks records and flags any discrepancies for resolution.
