Overview
Moving from Zymplify to Twenty CRM is a migration from a bundled intent-activation GTM platform to an open-source CRM that runs self-hosted or on Twenty's managed cloud. Zymplify organises data around a four-hub model (Prospecting, Marketing, Sales, Customer Success) with intent signals surfacing as metadata on Company records, while Twenty CRM uses a standard Contact-Company-Opportunity-Activity schema with a custom object layer for domain-specific records. We migrate standard CRM objects (Contacts, Companies, Deals, Engagements) with full fidelity, carry intent score metadata and enrichment provenance as custom fields, and document workflow logic and sales cadence definitions for manual rebuild. The migration eliminates Zymplify's pricing opacity, removes vendor lock-in from its four-confirmed-integration ecosystem, and gives the team ownership of their infrastructure through Twenty's self-hostable model. We do not migrate Bombora intent signals as live data, Zymplify Workflows as automation code, or Sales Cadences as sequence definitions; these require separate rebuild scoping.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Zymplify 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.
Zymplify
Contact
Twenty CRM
Person
1:1Zymplify Contact records (name, email, phone, role, enrichment provenance) map directly to Twenty CRM's Person object. The Zymplify contact's enrichment source (Bombora signal attribution, G2 intent data) migrates as a custom field zymplify_enrichment_source__c. Email maps to the Person's email field; phone to phoneNumber; role/title to jobTitle. Owner resolution uses email match against Twenty User records.
Zymplify
Company
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Zymplify Company records map 1:1 to Twenty CRM Company. Firmographic fields (domain, industry, employee count, revenue) migrate to Twenty's standard Company fields. Intent score metadata (Bombora spike data, G2 Buyer Intent signals) migrates as a custom field zymplify_intent_score__c and zymplify_intent_sources__c as a comma-separated list. The Company record is created before Person import so that Person-to-Company lookup relationships are satisfied at insert time.
Zymplify
Deal (Pipeline Stage)
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Zymplify Deals map to Twenty CRM Opportunity. The deal name becomes Opportunity name; deal amount maps to amount; close date maps to closeDate; pipeline stage maps to the Opportunity's stageName. Custom deal properties (Closed-Won reason, Closed-Lost reason, custom Zymplify fields) migrate as custom Opportunity fields. Stage vocabulary from Zymplify migrates as-is into Twenty's stage values and can be renamed post-migration.
Zymplify
Pipeline
Twenty CRM
Pipeline
lossyEach Zymplify deal pipeline maps to a named Pipeline in Twenty CRM. Pipeline stages in Zymplify become Opportunity stage values under the corresponding Twenty Pipeline. We create the Pipeline structure in Twenty before Opportunity import so that stage assignment is valid at record insert time.
Zymplify
Sales Cadence
Twenty CRM
Task (documented sequence definition)
lossyZymplify Sales Cadences are platform-native outreach sequences combining email steps, delays, and task actions with no direct Twenty CRM equivalent. We export cadence structure (step order, step type, delay duration, action type) as a written sequence definition document and create placeholder Task records for the initial outreach touch if the cadence started execution. The customer rebuilds cadences in their preferred sales engagement tool (Salesloft, Outreach, or manual Twenty Tasks) using the documented sequence.
Zymplify
Marketing Workflow
Twenty CRM
Not migrated (documented for rebuild)
lossyZymplify Marketing Workflows are automation builders with triggers, conditions, and actions that have no direct equivalent in Twenty CRM. We do not migrate workflows as code. We deliver a written requirements spec for each active Zymplify workflow documenting its trigger, conditions, filter logic, and action sequence, so the customer's admin rebuilds equivalents in their preferred automation layer or as manual process documentation. Workflow documentation is a prerequisite for any post-migration automation rebuild engagement.
Zymplify
Customer Success / Churn Forecast
Twenty CRM
Company (custom health fields)
1:1Zymplify Customer Success Hub health scores and churn risk indicators migrate as custom fields on Twenty CRM Company records. The raw health signal values (renewal date, engagement score, support ticket count) migrate as numeric custom fields (e.g., zymplify_health_score__c, zymplify_churn_risk__c). The Zymplify scoring model itself does not migrate; the customer documents the scoring logic independently for rebuild as a custom calculation or third-party health scoring tool.
Zymplify
CDP Hub / Data Cleansing Record
Twenty CRM
Person and Company (enrichment status fields)
1:1Zymplify's CDP Hub list management and data-cleansing decisions reflect enrichment status and deduplication outcomes. The cleansed contact data itself migrates to Twenty Person with enrichment provenance flags (e.g., zymplify_enrichment_date__c, zymplify_data_quality__c) as custom fields. Source-of-truth for deduplication decisions migrates as a custom field noting the Zymplify deduplication outcome since the provenance trail cannot be fully preserved in Twenty's standard data model.
Zymplify
Engagement: Email, Call, Meeting, Task, Note
Twenty CRM
Task, Event, Note
1:1Zymplify engagement records (emails, calls, meetings, tasks, notes) map to Twenty CRM equivalents: emails map to Note records attached to the Person or Company, calls map to Task with a taskType=Call custom field, meetings map to Event, tasks map to Task, and notes map to Note. Activity timestamps migrate to preserve the timeline ordering. Owner resolution uses email match against Twenty User records. No bulk API is required at this scale; Twenty's REST API handles standard insert operations with batch chunking.
Zymplify
Custom Property
Twenty CRM
Custom Field (on target object)
1:1Zymplify custom fields across all object types migrate as Twenty CRM custom fields on the corresponding object. We discover the full custom field inventory during the discovery phase via API enumeration and map each field by name and type. Text fields map to text, numeric fields to number, date fields to date, and picklist fields to select. Custom field API names are prefixed with zymplify_ to avoid naming conflicts with existing Twenty fields.
Zymplify
User / Team Member
Twenty CRM
WorkspaceMember
1:1Zymplify User records (name, email, role, hub assignment) map to Twenty CRM WorkspaceMember records. Resolution is by email match. Any Zymplify Owner without a matching Twenty WorkspaceMember goes to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. Role-based access information from Zymplify migrates as custom fields on the WorkspaceMember record.
Zymplify
Tag / Label
Twenty CRM
Custom text field (comma-separated)
lossyZymplify tags on Contact and Company records migrate as a custom field zymplify_tags__c containing a comma-separated list of tag values. Twenty CRM does not have a native tag taxonomy equivalent, so we recommend the customer adopt Twenty's standard label or custom select field for ongoing tagging after migration. Tag strategy decisions are made during scoping.

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.
Zymplify gotchas
No public pricing page — actual costs vary by directory
Intent data and workflows are Zymplify-native with no direct export
7-day free trial is insufficient to evaluate the platform
Integration ecosystem is thin and poorly documented
Vendor lock-in compounds migration complexity
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and deployment model selection
We audit the Zymplify portal across all active hubs (Prospecting, Marketing, Sales, Customer Success), enumerating custom fields on every object, active workflows, active sales cadences, engagement volume, and user count. We pair this with a Twenty CRM deployment model decision: self-hosted (Docker/Kubernetes, free) requires the customer to have infrastructure capacity and a Twenty instance running before migration; managed cloud ($19/user/month) requires a Twenty workspace provisioned and validated. The discovery output is a written migration scope including the object inventory, custom field map, workflow and cadence count, and the chosen deployment model.
Twenty schema design and custom object provisioning
We design the destination schema in Twenty CRM. This includes provisioning custom objects via the /metadata API if the customer requires domain-specific records beyond the standard Contact-Company-Opportunity-Activity model, creating custom fields for intent score metadata (zymplify_intent_score__c, zymplify_enrichment_source__c, zymplify_data_quality__c), configuring Pipelines and stage values to match Zymplify's pipeline vocabulary, and setting up WorkspaceMember records for all active Zymplify users. Schema is validated in a test environment before any production records are written.
Custom field discovery and mapping rule finalisation
We enumerate all Zymplify custom fields via API and map each to a typed Twenty CRM field (text, number, date, select, multi-select). Intent signal metadata, enrichment provenance, and tag data receive the zymplify_ prefix naming convention. The customer reviews and approves the mapping document, including any decisions about tag strategy (multi-select field vs. comma-separated text) and health score field placement (Company vs. Opportunity). This step resolves the schema unknowns that are common with Zymplify's undocumented data model.
Owner and user reconciliation
We extract every distinct Zymplify Owner referenced on Contact, Company, Deal, and Engagement records and match by email against the Twenty CRM WorkspaceMember table. Any Zymplify Owner without a matching Twenty WorkspaceMember goes to a reconciliation queue. The customer's admin provisions any missing users (active or inactive depending on whether the original Zymplify user is still on the team). Owner reconciliation must complete before record import because OwnerId references are required on standard objects in Twenty.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies (from Zymplify Companies, with intent metadata custom fields), Persons (from Zymplify Contacts, with enrichment provenance and Company lookup resolved), Pipelines and stage configuration, Opportunities (with Company lookup, Owner lookup, and stage resolved), Tasks, Events, and Notes for engagement history, Custom fields and Custom objects (last, because they often have lookups to standard objects). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. We use Twenty's REST API with batch chunking for all inserts.
Cutover, validation, and workflow handoff
We freeze Zymplify writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then designate Twenty CRM as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow requirements spec and Sales Cadence sequence documentation to the customer's admin team. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve reconciliation issues raised by the team. We do not rebuild Zymplify Workflows as automation code in Twenty; that is a separate engagement requiring a process documentation review and automation tool selection.
Post-migration enrichment and intent strategy
Since real-time intent signal data does not migrate as live data, we deliver a written recommendation for post-migration enrichment strategy. Options include a direct Bombora API subscription, a G2 Buyer Intent feed, or a built-from-scratch enrichment pipeline using Twenty's custom object and webhook capabilities. This recommendation is out of scope for the migration engagement but is delivered as part of the handoff package so the customer's RevOps team can plan the next steps.
