Overview
Ziggu organizes client-facing project data around properties, units, and developer workflows — clients, conversations, approvals, and documents all link to a project context. HighLevel structures its CRM around contacts, companies, and opportunities with pipelines, tags, and custom objects. The migration translates Ziggu's project-level data into HighLevel's contact-centric model: projects become either opportunities with custom properties or custom objects depending on their complexity, clients become contacts, and project conversations surface as contact notes or tasks. We migrate all standard fields (names, emails, phone numbers, addresses) plus Ziggu's custom properties as HighLevel custom fields. Workflows, automations, and approval chains require manual rebuild using HighLevel's workflow builder — we export your Ziggu workflow definitions as a reference document for your admin. The migration runs via HighLevel's bulk CSV import API with delta-pickup for in-flight changes during cutover. During the planning phase we produce a schema setup plan that defines the Unit, Payment, and Survey custom objects, including field names, types, and lookup relationships. The custom object definitions are delivered before the migration run so your admin can create them in HighLevel ahead of time. After the migration, a validation report compares record counts and field values between Ziggu and HighLevel, and any mismatches are flagged for manual review.
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 Ziggu object lands in HighLevel, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Ziggu
Contact (Client)
HighLevel
Contact
1:1Ziggu's client contacts map 1:1 to HighLevel contacts. We preserve name, email, phone, address, and any custom contact properties. The contact's primary project association is preserved as a tag (e.g., Project-[Name]) and optionally linked to a HighLevel opportunity representing that project.
Ziggu
Company (Partner/Contractor)
HighLevel
Company
1:1Ziggu partner and contractor company records map to HighLevel companies. Company name, domain/website, industry, and employee count migrate directly. Ziggu's partner portal visibility flag has no HighLevel equivalent — we flag this for manual review after migration and adjustment in the target system.
Ziggu
Project
HighLevel
Opportunity
1:1Each Ziggu project with active deals or sales tracking becomes a HighLevel opportunity. Project name maps to Opportunity name, project status maps to pipeline stage, and close date maps to the opportunity close date. Projects without a sales component map to custom objects instead.
Ziggu
Multi-unit Project
HighLevel
Custom Object (Unit)
1:1Ziggu's Multi-unit Projects add-on creates individual unit records under a project. These map to a HighLevel Custom Object named 'Unit' linked to the parent opportunity via a lookup relationship. Each unit's status (available, reserved, sold) becomes a custom pick-list field on the Unit object.
Ziggu
Task
HighLevel
Task
1:1Ziggu tasks linked to projects and contacts migrate as HighLevel tasks. Original due dates, assignees (resolved by email match to HighLevel users), and task status are preserved. Unassigned tasks are flagged for manual owner assignment before the full run. Post-migration review ensures accuracy.
Ziggu
Conversation
HighLevel
Note
1:1Ziggu's structured conversations per project and unit become HighLevel notes on the linked contact or opportunity. Each conversation thread is consolidated into a single note with a timestamp header and threaded message content. Original message authors are preserved in the note body.
Ziggu
Document/File
HighLevel
File (Contact/Opportunity attachment)
1:1Ziggu documents are re-uploaded as HighLevel files attached to the relevant contact or opportunity. File size limits apply — documents exceeding HighLevel's attachment size are flagged for alternative storage (Google Drive link stored in a custom field). Version history is not preserved; the latest version is migrated.
Ziggu
Survey
HighLevel
Custom Object + Form
1:1Ziggu survey responses with custom questions become records in a HighLevel Custom Object. Survey metadata (name, creation date, respondent) is stored on the custom object; individual question-answer pairs map to custom fields on that object. Survey logic and conditional branching require manual rebuild in HighLevel's form builder.
Ziggu
Financials (Payment Schedule/Invoice)
HighLevel
Custom Object (Payment) + Opportunity Line Items
1:1Ziggu Financials add-on payment schedules map to a HighLevel Custom Object named 'Payment' linked to the opportunity. Individual invoices with amounts and due dates become Payment records. Paid amounts update the opportunity amount field to maintain financial accuracy on the CRM side.
Ziggu
Tag/Label
HighLevel
Tag
1:1Ziggu labels and tags on contacts and projects migrate as HighLevel tags. Tags are preserved on contact and opportunity records for segmentation and workflow triggers. Ziggu's project-level tags (e.g., Unit type, Deal status) are prepended with a namespace (Project-) to avoid collision with contact-level tags.
Ziggu
User/Team Member
HighLevel
User
1:1Ziggu team members are resolved by email match to HighLevel users. If a Ziggu user has no corresponding HighLevel account, their records are assigned to a fallback owner and flagged for admin review. Ziggu role/permission settings do not migrate — those are destination-side HighLevel configuration.
Ziggu
Approval Chain
HighLevel
No Equivalent
1:1Ziggu's built-in approval workflows for document sign-offs and decision chains have no direct HighLevel equivalent. We export the approval definition (approver sequence, thresholds, conditions) as a reference document for your admin to rebuild using HighLevel's workflow builder and e-sign integrations.

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.
Ziggu gotchas
Deactivated projects lock tasks and files but keep conversations open
Per-active-project pricing creates a minimum portfolio cost
Add-ons scale per active unit, not per project
No public API means migration runs through manual export workflows
HighLevel gotchas
Sub-account architecture creates isolated data silos per client
Usage-based telecom and AI costs are not in the subscription price
Workflows have no native equivalent in most destination CRMs
API rate limits cap bulk migration throughput at 100 requests per 10 seconds per sub-account
White-label configuration and branding assets do not export via API
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Ziggu data export and schema
FlitStack AI exports your Ziggu data via CSV from Settings, capturing all contacts, companies, projects, tasks, conversations, documents, and active add-on data (multi-unit, surveys, financials). We compare the exported record counts against Ziggu's internal counts to identify any gaps. We also document your Ziggu pipeline stages, project statuses, custom property definitions, and approval chain configurations so the mapping plan accounts for every non-standard value.
Design HighLevel schema setup plan
Before data moves, your HighLevel admin (or our team) creates the custom object types needed: Unit, Payment, Survey Response. We deliver a schema plan specifying exact field names, types, pick-list values, and lookups for each custom object. We also specify which HighLevel pipeline and stage values correspond to each Ziggu project status. Your admin pre-creates these in HighLevel so the migration runs against a schema that is already complete.
Resolve owners and users by email
HighLevel users are matched against Ziggu owner IDs by email. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — your team either creates HighLevel accounts for them first or assigns their records to a fallback owner. No record lands in HighLevel without a valid assignedTo value. Ziggu role assignments do not migrate; those are rebuilt as HighLevel permission sets post-migration. If multiple Ziggu owners share the same email, the system links records to the first matched HighLevel user to avoid duplication.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice migrates first — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, projects, tasks, and add-on data. We generate a field-level diff between the Ziggu source values and the HighLevel destination values so you can verify project-to-opportunity mapping, custom property translation, tag preservation, and owner resolution before the full run commits. You approve the sample before we proceed to the full migration.
Full migration with delta-pickup and rollback
The full migration runs against HighLevel using bulk CSV import for high-volume objects and the HighLevel REST API for custom objects with relationships. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any Ziggu records modified during the cutover window so HighLevel reflects Ziggu's final state at go-live. An audit log tracks every imported record, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation fails.
