Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from mploy to Recruit CRM is a migration from a minimal, opaque ATS with no documented API to a full-featured recruiting platform with a published REST API and bulk CSV import. Every mploy migration begins with a manual discovery step because mploy has no public API portal and zero third-party reviews, meaning we cannot validate schema from external research alone. The customer must provide admin-panel CSV exports and walk us through any custom field definitions. We then map those exports to Recruit CRM's candidate, job, application, and deal objects, respecting Recruit CRM's custom field limits (15 on Pro, 100 on Business). Attachments, interview records, and pipeline configuration require separate handling steps documented during scoping. Workflows, automations, and sequence cadences are out of scope; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild in Recruit CRM.

What's pushing teams away

  • Zero third-party reviews on G2 and Capterra make it impossible to validate product reliability, support quality, or long-term viability before committing data.
  • Small-market product raises concerns about vendor longevity and the risk of a forced migration if the platform sunsets without warning.
  • Limited public documentation means internal teams struggle to configure workflows, integrations, or custom fields without vendor support.
  • Absence of a visible API or developer documentation blocks automation use cases, integrations with HRIS systems, and programmatic data extraction.
  • Small vendor footprint limits access to skilled implementation partners, forcing customers to rely solely on vendor support for complex setups.

Choosing

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 mploy objects map to Recruit CRM & ATS

Each row shows how a mploy 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.

mploy

Candidate

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

mploy Candidates map directly to Recruit CRM Candidates. Standard fields (name, email, phone, status, source, submission date) migrate via CSV with direct field-to-field mapping. Resume files require a separate attachment export step from mploy; we deliver them as file attachments linked to the corresponding Candidate record in Recruit CRM after bulk import completes.

mploy

Job

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job

1:1
Fully supported

mploy Job records (title, department, location, description, status, open/closed flag) map to Recruit CRM Jobs. We preserve active and archived job status, mapping mploy's open/closed state to Recruit CRM's job status field. Job-associated custom fields migrate to Recruit CRM custom fields on the Job object, respecting the plan limit (15 on Pro, 100 on Business).

mploy

Application

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Application

1:1
Fully supported

mploy Applications (the join record between Candidate and Job) map to Recruit CRM Applications. The mapping preserves submission date, application source, current stage, and any stage-transition timestamps. Stage names from mploy's pipeline configuration map to Recruit CRM's pipeline stages during import.

mploy

Pipeline / Stage

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Pipeline / Stage

lossy
Fully supported

mploy pipeline stage names and sequence order are customer-specific. We extract the ordered stage list during discovery, then configure Recruit CRM pipeline stages to match before application records are imported. Stage probability values from mploy (if present) migrate as stage-level notes in Recruit CRM.

mploy

User

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

User

1:1
Fully supported

mploy User accounts (recruiters, hiring managers, admins) map to Recruit CRM users by email. Role assignments (admin, recruiter, viewer) map to Recruit CRM permission roles during user provisioning. Inactive mploy users may be excluded or migrated as inactive Recruit CRM users depending on whether historical assignment data needs to be preserved.

mploy

Offer

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Deal

1:1
Fully supported

mploy Offer records (compensation, start date, acceptance status) map to Recruit CRM Deals linked to the corresponding Application and Job. We preserve offer amount, start date, and status fields. If mploy does not have a distinct Offer object, offer data stored as custom fields on Applications migrates as Deal fields in Recruit CRM.

mploy

Interview

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Interview (as Note or custom field)

1:1
Fully supported

mploy interview records are not confirmed as a separately exportable object. Where interview data exists in mploy (interviewer name, date, outcome notes), we capture it as notes attached to the Application record in Recruit CRM. Recruit CRM's native interview scheduling feature is available post-migration but historical interview records do not map to a native interview object through CSV import.

mploy

Custom Fields (Candidates)

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Fields (Candidates)

lossy
Fully supported

mploy custom fields on Candidates must be explicitly enumerated by the customer during discovery because no public data dictionary exists. Each custom field name, data type, and picklist value is captured manually. On Recruit CRM's Pro Plan, up to 15 custom fields per object are supported; the Business Plan supports up to 100. If the customer exceeds Pro limits, we flag the constraint during scoping and recommend Business Plan or field consolidation before migration.

mploy

Custom Fields (Jobs)

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Fields (Jobs)

lossy
Fully supported

Same enumeration constraint applies to mploy custom fields on Jobs. Recruit CRM supports job-specific custom fields including job-associated fields (custom fields scoped to specific job roles a candidate is being considered for). We map mploy job custom fields to Recruit CRM job custom fields, using the job_associated_fields structure where applicable to preserve role-specific data context.

mploy

Candidate Source

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate Source

lossy
Fully supported

Application source attribution (e.g., LinkedIn, job board, referral) from mploy migrates to Recruit CRM's candidate source field. If mploy stores source as a free-text field, we standardize it to Recruit CRM's picklist values during transform. Unknown or unmapped source values are preserved in a custom field for the customer's admin to reclassify post-migration.

mploy

Document Attachment

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

File Attachment (Candidate)

1:1
Fully supported

Resume files and uploaded attachments stored outside the candidate CSV in mploy require a separate file archive export. We link each file to the corresponding Candidate record in Recruit CRM by filename matching against the candidate email or name in the primary export. This step is manual and requires the customer to confirm that the admin-panel bulk download includes attachments or that a separate archive can be generated.

mploy

Activity / Notes

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Note

1:1
Fully supported

Any notes recorded on mploy Candidate or Application records migrate as Recruit CRM Notes attached to the corresponding record. Timestamps and author information are preserved where present. If mploy stores engagement activity (emails, calls) as a separate object, those migrate as Note records; native Recruit CRM email and call logging features are available post-migration for ongoing activity capture.

Pair-specific challenges

  • mploy has no confirmed API for automated export

    Every mploy migration requires manual admin-panel CSV exports because no public API endpoint, authentication scheme, or developer portal exists. We cannot run programmatic extraction against mploy. The customer must confirm admin-panel bulk download access, validate that the exported fields match their full data scope, and provide a file archive for attachments. If admin-panel exports are restricted or unavailable, migration feasibility is in question and requires vendor-facilitated data extraction before scoping can proceed.

  • Custom field enumeration requires manual customer input

    mploy has no published data dictionary or schema documentation. The customer must walk us through every custom field on Candidates and Jobs by providing a screenshot or export of their field configuration during discovery. This enumeration step adds one to two business days to scoping. We cannot infer custom field names, data types, or picklist values from external research. The enumeration must be complete before mapping can begin.

  • Recruit CRM Pro Plan limits custom fields to 15 per object

    Recruit CRM's Pro Plan supports a maximum of 15 custom fields per object (Candidates, Companies, Contacts, Jobs, Deals). The Business Plan extends this to 100 custom fields per object. If mploy's custom field count per object exceeds 15, we flag the constraint during scoping and either recommend upgrading to Business Plan or working with the customer to consolidate fields before migration. This is a plan-tier constraint, not a migration logic constraint.

  • Attachment file handling is separate from record export

    Resume files and binary attachments in mploy are stored separately from the candidate CSV export. We must request a distinct file archive or confirm attachment export is included in the bulk download. Missing resume files are one of the most common post-migration gaps in ATS migrations when scoping focuses on record fields and ignores binary assets. We explicitly confirm attachment availability during discovery.

  • Interview records are not a confirmed mploy export object

    mploy does not confirm interview records as a separately exportable data object. Where interview data exists, it may be stored as free-form notes or custom fields rather than structured records. We attempt to capture it as notes attached to the Application during migration, but the customer should not expect a native interview object in Recruit CRM with pre-populated historical interviewer assignments and scores unless those are explicitly enumerated during discovery.

Migration approach

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

  1. Discovery and export capability confirmation

    We begin every mploy engagement with a structured discovery call. Because mploy has no public API or schema documentation, we cannot validate data shape externally. The customer must confirm admin-panel CSV export access, provide a sample export for review, and walk us through their custom field configuration. We audit the sample export against the standard ATS object set (Candidates, Jobs, Applications, Users, Pipelines, Offers) and probe for any legacy import history, integrations, or non-standard data that would affect migration scope. The discovery output is a written migration scope with record counts, custom field enumeration, and attachment availability confirmation.

  2. Full CSV export and field mapping design

    We guide the customer through generating complete CSV exports from the mploy admin panel for all objects confirmed during discovery. We review the export columns against Recruit CRM's default field schema (documented at help.recruitcrm.io/en/articles/6806423-default-fields-in-recruit-crm) and design a field mapping document that maps each mploy column to its Recruit CRM equivalent. Any mploy custom fields are mapped to Recruit CRM custom fields, with a plan-tier check against the 15-field Pro Plan limit. Stage names are mapped to Recruit CRM pipeline stages, and source attribution is standardized to Recruit CRM's picklist.

  3. Recruit CRM schema pre-configuration

    Before importing data, we work with the customer to configure Recruit CRM's destination schema. This includes configuring pipeline stages to match mploy's ordered stage sequence, creating any custom fields that exceed Recruit CRM defaults, and provisioning user accounts mapped from mploy's user list. If the customer is on Recruit CRM Pro and custom field count exceeds 15 per object, we recommend Business Plan or field consolidation before migration begins. Recruit CRM's native bulk import UI (CSV/XLS upload with field mapping) is tested against the prepared file to confirm field correspondence.

  4. Attachment archive export and linking

    We coordinate a separate file archive export from mploy for resume files and document attachments. We match each file to its corresponding candidate record in the primary CSV by filename, candidate name, or email. Files are then uploaded to Recruit CRM and linked to the matched Candidate record. If mploy cannot produce a separate file archive, we document the constraint and recommend manual re-upload post-migration with a candidate list to guide the process.

  5. Bulk import and reconciliation

    We run the bulk import into Recruit CRM using the prepared CSV files and field mapping document. Jobs import first (no dependencies), then Candidates, then Applications (which depend on both Job and Candidate records being present). Users are provisioned in Recruit CRM before record import if they do not already exist. After each import phase, we produce a row-count reconciliation report comparing mploy source counts to Recruit CRM destination counts. The customer spot-checks 25-50 records per object for field-level accuracy before write clearance is granted.

  6. Cutover, delta sync, and automation handoff

    We freeze writes to mploy during the cutover window, run a final delta export of any records modified during the migration window, and import the delta into Recruit CRM. Recruit CRM is enabled as the system of record. We deliver a written inventory of any mploy workflows, automations, or sequences that require rebuild in Recruit CRM's native automation tools. We do not rebuild these as code; the inventory document is the handoff artifact for the customer's admin or a Recruit CRM implementation partner. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised during the first week of live use.

Most mploy migrations land between two and three weeks for accounts under 5,000 candidates, 500 jobs, and a straightforward custom field set. The discovery and custom field enumeration step (one to two business days) is the primary variable. Migrations with extensive custom field configurations, multiple pipeline stages, separate attachment archives, or user-role mapping complexity move to four to six weeks. We cannot accelerate the discovery step because mploy has no API or public schema documentation that lets us validate data shape without customer input.
