Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from HROffice to Recruit CRM is a structural migration for staffing-focused organizations. HROffice organizes placement data around Assignments and weekly timecard cycles for temporary workers; Recruit CRM follows standard ATS conventions with Candidates, Applications, and Job Postings. We do not force Assignments into a continuous employee record model. Instead we export Assignments as related supplemental metadata and attach them to the migrated Candidate in Recruit CRM, preserving placement type, duration, and timecard history as custom fields or notes. Recruit CRM's API access at the Business tier ($119/user/mo) unlocks the REST endpoints needed for programmatic migration; the Team tier ($85/user/mo) requires manual import. We do not migrate branded career site content, automated workflows, or referral tool configurations as these are platform-specific and do not carry over to Recruit CRM.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

HROffice logo

HROffice

What's pushing teams away

  • The platform has zero public reviews on major directories like G2 and Capterra, making it difficult for prospective customers to validate quality and support responsiveness before committing.
  • No public pricing is published—prospects must contact sales for every quote, which creates friction for organizations comparing mid-market HRMS options quickly.
  • The API is add-on and requires a web developer to implement, making automated data exports or integrations non-trivial for non-technical HR teams.

Choosing

Recruit CRM & ATS logo

Recruit CRM & ATS

What's pulling them in

  • Agencies choose Recruit CRM for its full customizability — pipelines, stages, and fields can be tailored to any recruitment workflow without developer involvement.
  • Small teams value the built-in CRM and ATS combined in one subscription, eliminating the need to purchase and sync separate systems.
  • The Chrome extension for one-click LinkedIn profile collection streamlines candidate sourcing and reduces manual data entry for recruiters.
  • Responsive customer support with fast issue resolution is consistently cited as a reason teams stick with the platform long-term.
  • Automation options including email sequences and workflow triggers allow recruitment agencies to reduce repetitive manual outreach tasks.

Object mapping

How HROffice objects map to Recruit CRM & ATS

Each row shows how a HROffice object lands in Recruit CRM & ATS, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

HROffice

Candidate

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice Candidate records map directly to Recruit CRM Candidate. We export standard fields including name, email, phone, address, skills, experience, and application history. The mapping is straightforward for fields that exist in both systems; custom fields on Candidate may require prioritization if the customer's Recruit CRM plan is Team tier (15-field limit per entity) versus Business tier (50 fields). We flag any HROffice custom candidate fields exceeding the destination tier limit during scoping and work with the customer to prioritize or restructure.

HROffice

Application

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Application

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice Applications tied to open Job Postings map to Recruit CRM Applications. Each Application carries the candidate reference, job reference, application date, status pipeline, and recruiter notes. Status values from HROffice's application pipeline map to Recruit CRM's candidate pipeline stages, with the mapping defined during scoping based on the customer's specific stage names.

HROffice

Job Posting

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice Job Postings map to Recruit CRM Jobs. Job content including title, description, requirements, location, department, and employment type migrate directly. Employer branding, custom career site fields, and embedded media tied to HROffice's career site builder do not carry over; these are platform-specific assets that require recreation in Recruit CRM's job posting interface.

HROffice

Assignment

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate (supplemental metadata)

lossy
Fully supported

HROffice Assignment records represent temporary or temp-to-perm placements with start dates, end dates, assignment type, and placement status. This is a staffing-agency-specific concept without a direct Recruit CRM equivalent. We export Assignments as supplemental metadata and attach them to the migrated Candidate record as custom fields (assignment_type, assignment_start_date, assignment_end_date, placement_status) or as structured notes. This preserves the staffing history without forcing placement records into a standard employment model that Recruit CRM does not support.

HROffice

Timecard

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate (supplemental notes or custom fields)

lossy
Fully supported

HROffice timecard records capture hours worked and submission dates for temporary workers on assignment. Recruit CRM has no native timecard object. We export timecard history as a structured note on the related Candidate record or as custom fields (weekly_hours, timecard_submission_date, pay_period) if the customer's data volume and Recruit CRM tier support it. Recruit CRM's invoice management feature can handle billing for placed candidates but does not replace payroll cycle tracking.

HROffice

User

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

User

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice internal Users (recruiters, administrators) are separate from the candidates placed through the platform. User records carry role-based permissions and name/email. We export active User accounts for reconciliation against Recruit CRM User provisioning. Inactive HROffice users are exported as a reference list for the customer's admin to provision or archive in Recruit CRM after migration.

HROffice

Benefits

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate (custom fields)

1:1
Mapping required

HROffice benefit enrollment records include plan assignments, coverage type, and effective dates for placed workers. These map to custom fields on the Candidate record in Recruit CRM if the destination tier supports the field count. We export benefit data as structured key-value fields or as a supplemental notes section on the candidate, depending on the volume and Recruit CRM plan constraints.

HROffice

Compensation

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate (custom fields)

1:1
Mapping required

HROffice compensation records include pay type (hourly, salary), rate, currency, and effective dates for temporary placements. These map to custom fields on the Candidate record in Recruit CRM (pay_type, hourly_rate, salary, currency, compensation_effective_date). We standardize currency values to the primary currency used in the Recruit CRM instance during the transform step.

HROffice

Company

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Client

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice Company records (client organizations that post jobs or receive placements) map to Recruit CRM Client records. Company name, address, industry, contact information, and notes migrate directly. The mapping uses company name as the dedupe key during import to prevent duplicate client records.

HROffice

Contact

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice Contact records (hiring manager or client-side contact individuals) map to Recruit CRM Contact records attached to Client organizations. Name, title, email, phone, and relationship to the client organization migrate directly. We resolve the parent Client reference during migration so that contacts are properly linked at import time.

HROffice

Job Posting (archived)

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job (archived)

1:1
Fully supported

Archived or closed HROffice Job Postings migrate to Recruit CRM Jobs with a closed status flag. The customer's Recruit CRM plan determines whether archived jobs count against the active job posting limit. We flag any archive strategy during scoping and advise whether to migrate all historical postings or only recent ones.

HROffice

Candidate Document

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate Document

1:1
Fully supported

HROffice candidate documents (resumes, CVs, attachments) migrate as linked documents to the corresponding Candidate record in Recruit CRM. We handle document extraction from HROffice's storage, validate file format compatibility, and attach each document to the correct Candidate using the candidate ID mapping established during the primary record migration.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Assignment-based data model has no direct Recruit CRM equivalent

    HROffice organizes temporary staffing data around Assignments with start dates, end dates, placement type, and weekly timecard submission cycles. Recruit CRM is a standard ATS and CRM without native temporary staffing assignment tracking. We resolve this by exporting Assignment records as supplemental metadata on the Candidate record in Recruit CRM, preserving placement type, duration, and status as custom fields or structured notes. Timecard history similarly attaches as supplemental data. This is not a native assignment management system; if the customer's business relies on ongoing assignment tracking and payroll cycle management, they should plan to handle these workflows separately or use Recruit CRM's invoice management for billing rather than payroll.

  • Recruit CRM custom field tier limits may require prioritization

    HROffice organizations with extensive custom fields on Candidates, Applications, or Companies may exceed Recruit CRM's tier limits at migration time. The Team plan ($85/user/mo) allows 15 custom fields per entity; the Business plan ($119/user/mo) allows 50. If the customer's HROffice instance uses more than 15 custom fields on any entity, they either need to upgrade to Business tier before migration or work with FlitStack AI during scoping to prioritize and restructure fields into the available limit. We identify all custom fields during discovery and flag any that exceed the destination tier before migration begins.

  • Branded career site content and employer branding does not migrate

    HROffice's built-in career website builder produces employer-branded job posting pages with custom layouts, branding elements, and formatting that are platform-specific assets. Recruit CRM's job posting interface does not accept these branded artifacts as importable content. We export the job posting text, requirements, and metadata as structured fields, but the visual career site presentation must be recreated manually in Recruit CRM's job board or the customer's chosen career site platform. This is a platform-specific limitation that affects all migrations from HROffice to any destination.

  • HROffice API requires paid add-on and developer access before export

    HROffice's API is not self-service. The customer must have purchased the API connection add-on, and integrations must be built by a web developer using documentation at api.hroffice.nl. If the customer has not purchased API access, we coordinate with HROffice to enable it before migration scoping begins. Without active API access, data export is not possible through FlitStack AI's standard pipeline. We handle the API connection and read-only export pipeline build as part of our onboarding process, but the customer must confirm their API add-on is active before we can begin.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful HROffice to Recruit CRM & ATS data migration

  1. API access and credentials setup

    We confirm HROffice API connectivity before any data work begins. If the customer has not purchased the API connection add-on, we coordinate with HROffice to enable it. We request API credentials (client ID, client secret, and base URL) and validate connectivity to api.hroffice.nl. On the Recruit CRM side, we confirm the customer's active plan tier (Team or Business) to determine the available custom field quota. If the customer is on the Team plan and has more than 15 custom fields on any entity in HROffice, we flag this during scoping and recommend upgrading to Business before migration begins.

  2. Schema discovery and data audit

    We audit the HROffice instance across all supported objects: Candidates, Applications, Job Postings, Assignments, Timecards, Users, Benefits, Compensation, Companies, and Contacts. We extract record counts, custom field definitions, assignment volume, and timecard history. We also identify any duplicate records, incomplete profiles, or data hygiene issues that affect migration scope. The discovery output is a written data inventory including record counts per object, custom field lists with data types, and an initial assessment of what migrates cleanly versus what requires supplemental metadata treatment.

  3. Destination schema design and mapping specification

    We design the Recruit CRM destination schema based on the customer's active plan tier. This includes defining which custom fields migrate within the tier limit, which fields require prioritization or grouping into notes, and how Assignment records attach as supplemental metadata to Candidate records. We create the object mapping specification document covering every supported HROffice object, its Recruit CRM equivalent, transform rules, and any field-level type conversions. If the customer is upgrading from Team to Business tier to accommodate field volume, we confirm the upgrade is complete before finalizing the schema.

  4. Sandbox migration and reconciliation

    We run a full migration into Recruit CRM using a test environment or a limited initial import to validate the mapping. The customer's lead recruiter or HR admin spot-checks 25-50 candidate records, application histories, and assignment metadata against the HROffice source. Any mapping corrections, field priority adjustments, or supplemental metadata handling decisions are made during this validation phase before production migration begins. The customer approves the final mapping specification at this stage.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order. Client and Contact records migrate first to establish the organizational hierarchy. Candidate records migrate second with Assignment and Timecard data attached as supplemental metadata. Applications and Job Postings migrate third with status pipeline mappings applied. User records migrate fourth for reconciliation against Recruit CRM user provisioning. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. We handle document attachments (resumes, CVs) as a final phase using Recruit CRM's document upload API.

  6. Cutover, validation, and workflow rebuild handoff

    We freeze writes to HROffice during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the cutover window, then enable Recruit CRM as the system of record. We deliver a written inventory of any HROffice automated workflows, referral tool configurations, or career site customizations that require manual rebuild in Recruit CRM's settings. We do not rebuild these as part of the migration scope. We support a one-week post-migration window where we resolve any data reconciliation issues raised by the customer's team.

Most migrations land between three and five weeks for organizations with fewer than 5,000 candidate records and straightforward staffing data. Migrations with high assignment volumes (over 2,000 Assignment records), extensive timecard history, custom field counts exceeding Recruit CRM's Team plan limit of 15, or large historical job posting archives move to six to eight weeks because of schema design, supplemental metadata mapping, and tier reconciliation work.
