Migrate your ServicePRO data
Enterprise-grade service desk software built on a 25-year track record, now part of the ServiceTitan ecosystem, with per-agent licensing and multi-department RBAC.
In its favor
Why people choose ServicePRO
The signal that keeps ServicePRO on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Multi-department RBAC with granular user permissions lets organizations isolate confidential data across departments while sharing a single platform, a key differentiator cited in Gartner reviews for Enterprise buyers.
Per-agent monthly pricing with unlimited technical support and 3 hours of free consulting lowers the cost of entry for mid-market teams evaluating service desk solutions.
Integration within the ServiceTitan contractor-software ecosystem attracts field-service and facilities-management teams already using ServiceTitan for scheduling and dispatch.
Contract linking between customers, sites, and service agreements gives users a fast path to locate related obligations, a frequently praised feature in G2 reviews.
Certified Microsoft Azure hosting with geo-selectable datacenter locations appeals to IT teams with latency and compliance requirements.
The user interface is described as perplexing and the Silverlight-based architecture leads to occasional glitches and crashes, frustrating users accustomed to modern web UX.
Initial implementation poses significant difficulties; users report becoming more overwhelmed after initial setup rather than ramping up smoothly.
Setup is described as unintuitive even by satisfied users, requiring consulting or extensive trial-and-error to configure workflows correctly.
The contract search tab does not surface linked site information, forcing users to navigate through the customer tab to find related contracts, a friction point for high-volume service organizations.
Migration export options are limited; the built-in CSV import utility handles only users and assets, leaving service history and custom fields requiring manual work or custom integration.

What gets migrated
ServicePRO object support
Object-by-object support for ServicePRO migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
ServiceDesk Tickets (Service Requests)
Fully supportedService Requests are the core ticket object. We map standard fields like status, priority, category, and assigned technician. Custom form fields are supported via field-level mapping at import time using ServicePRO's enumerated field type system (text, numeric, date, checkbox, dropdown, etc.). Source ticket status history is preserved as a linked audit log.
Users / Technicians
Fully supportedServicePRO has a documented Employee API endpoint (GET api/v1/Setup/GetEmployeeInfoByEmployeeId) and a built-in CSV Import Utility that can mass-import users with department or company assignments. The import utility also detects existing users and updates records. We pull full user profiles including role assignments and permissions.
Assets
Fully supportedAssets are supported via the CSV Import Utility, which can mass-import asset records and link them to users or locations. We map asset name, type, serial number, and any custom asset fields defined in the customer's ServicePRO configuration. Asset-to-ticket linkage is preserved during migration.
Target Categories
Mapping requiredTarget Categories are a hierarchical lookup structure exposed via the Setup API (GetTargetCategoryList, GetTargetCategoryByTargetCategoryId). The API returns isRelated and UsedInSharedRef flags that indicate lookup relationships. We map these as normalized taxonomy records but customer-specific category trees may require manual review for naming consistency.
Target Records
Mapping requiredTarget records are the individual entities within Target Categories (vendors, customers, locations, equipment types). Exposed via GetTargetList and filtered by targettypeid. We map target name, type, and cross-references. Deep Target Category hierarchies require field-level mapping against the destination schema.
Programs
Mapping requiredPrograms define service offerings and link to inventory items, branches, and events. Exposed via GetProgramList and GetProgramByProgramTypeId. We preserve Program-to-ProgramEvent and Program-to-ProgramInventoryItem relationships as linked records. Custom programs require value-level mapping.
Custom Forms
Mapping requiredCustom Forms define ticket intake layouts and capture structured data. Professional edition is capped at 25 forms; Enterprise has unlimited. We export form structure and field definitions from the metadata API but form layouts are not machine-exportable; we reconstruct equivalent forms in the destination system using the field definitions captured.
Business Rules
Not in this platformBusiness Rules define automated routing, escalation, and notification logic within ServicePRO. They are configuration-level objects with no documented API export endpoint. We document all rules during discovery and provide a written rules inventory so the customer can manually rebuild them in the destination system.
Email Accounts (System Email Accounts)
Mapping requiredSystem Email Accounts define sending and receiving addresses used in ticket communications. Professional is limited to 10; Enterprise has unlimited. We export account configurations including SMTP settings and routing rules. Email templates linked to accounts require separate template mapping.
Service Centers
Mapping requiredService Centers define organizational boundaries for ticket queues and users. Professional supports a single Service Center; Enterprise supports multiple. When migrating from multi-center Enterprise to a single-center destination, we flag the consolidation as a migration-critical decision requiring explicit scope alignment.
Attachments / Documents
Mapping requiredServicePRO stores attachments linked to tickets, assets, and forms. We attempt to export attachments via the API or via direct database reference where accessible. Large binary attachments (images, PDFs, signed forms) may require separate file transfer and re-linking in the destination system.
