Migrate your Yalla data
All-in-one project management and CRM built for marketing and creative teams, combining tasks, Gantt charts, client collaboration, and sales funnels in a single drag-and-drop workspace.
In its favor
Why people choose Yalla
The signal that keeps Yalla on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
The platform combines project management, CRM, chat, and client collaboration in one workspace, eliminating the need to integrate separate tools for marketing and creative teams.
The built-in CRM module with unlimited client invites lets agencies manage external clients and internal work without paying for a separate CRM license.
The drag-and-drop interface with Gantt charts and timeline views makes workload visualization accessible without steep learning curve, reflected in 4.8/5 ease-of-use ratings on Capterra.
Customer service scores of 4.9/5 indicate responsive support, and the 14-day free trial with nearly all features included lets teams validate fit before committing.
Pricing at $10-12 per user per month is competitive against alternatives like Jira, monday.com, and Smartsheet while bundling CRM and project management together.
Limited market presence with only 10 verified G2 reviews and 16 Capterra reviews raises concerns about long-term product stability and community support.
No publicly documented API makes programmatic data export difficult, forcing teams to manually extract records or request vendor assistance to move data.
Small review base means unverified reports of app update delays and troubleshooting friction, as one Reddit user noted the app version did not change across months.
Marketing and creative-specific workflow features may not scale for engineering or product teams, prompting migration to more generalized tools like Asana or Jira.

What gets migrated
Yalla object support
Object-by-object support for Yalla migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Projects
Fully supportedProjects are the top-level container in Yalla, holding Priorities, team members, and funnel associations. We migrate Projects with their metadata, dates, and status intact.
Priorities
Fully supportedPriorities are Yalla's task equivalent, supporting start/due dates, assignees, custom labels, and completion status. We map them to Tasks in destination systems and preserve the drag-and-drop ordering.
Companies
Fully supportedYalla includes a built-in CRM module for Companies. We migrate Company records with contact associations and any custom properties attached to them.
Contacts
Fully supportedContacts are stored alongside Companies in Yalla's CRM. We preserve the contact-to-company relationship and any custom fields during migration.
Funnels
Mapping requiredFunnels represent Yalla's pipeline view and drive how work moves through stages. Funnel definitions (stages, names, ordering) require explicit mapping because destination CRMs represent pipeline stages differently.
Pipeline Stages
Mapping requiredPipeline Stages belong to Funnels and hold deal/status progression logic. We migrate stage names and positions but flag any stage-level automation rules for manual reconfiguration.
Users
Fully supportedInternal team members are Users in Yalla with role-based access. We migrate User records including name, email, and team assignment. Guest users are migrated separately.
Clients (Guests)
Mapping requiredYalla supports unlimited client invites as guests who can view and create Priorities. Guest records require separate access-level mapping as they have different permission constraints than internal Users.
Custom Labels
Mapping requiredCustom Labels tag Priorities and other objects. We extract all label values and reapply them as tags or custom fields in the destination system, depending on what the target supports.
Time Entries
Mapping requiredTime entries are logged against Priorities. We preserve the duration, date, and user association. Destination systems may require a time-tracking module to retain these natively.
Chat Threads
Not in this platformYalla's built-in chat stores team messages and mentions. These are ephemeral communication records that are not reliably exportable via the available data layer and are not migrated.
Files
Mapping requiredFile attachments linked to Priorities or Companies are migrated as downloadable blobs. We map file names and association metadata alongside the binary data.
Gantt / Timeline Data
Mapping requiredTimeline and Gantt views are derived from Priority dates and dependencies rather than standalone records. We migrate the underlying scheduling data and rebuild the Gantt representation in the destination where supported.
Task Templates
Mapping requiredTemplates define reusable Priority structures. We migrate template definitions and their step sequences so they can be recreated as template or automation rules in the destination.
