Metro Detroit
It is the end of the year in Metro Detroit and the renewal notice for your old software just landed. You already chose something better, but your guest history, open orders and years of notes are trapped in the old system and nobody on the team has the hours to move them.
With a planned migration, the old data gets exported, cleaned and mapped field by field into the new system. Duplicates get merged, open orders and balances get checked, and your team practices in the new software before the old one turns off.
Switch day is quiet. The phone rings, the guest history is there, and the only thing your team notices is that the new system is easier. The old subscription gets cancelled on time.

Fix this in Metro DetroitWe list what lives where, what needs to come over and what can be archived.
Every field gets a home in the new system, and records get cleaned before they move.
We run a test import, check a sample against the old system with you and fix what is off.
The final import runs on a planned day, we check balances and history, and your team goes live.
What we report every month: Records moved and verified, Duplicates merged, Open balance differences found and fixed, and Days to full switch.
A migration is more than an export and import. It covers deciding what comes over, cleaning it, mapping every field, testing, and checking that balances, open orders and notes made it intact. The cleanup is where most of the value is, because it is the one time your data gets fixed in bulk.
Cost depends on how many systems you are leaving, how many records and years of history move, how messy the data is and whether open balances and attachments need to come across. Some vendors include a basic import, but it rarely covers cleanup or checking. We quote a fixed project fee after we see your exports.
ServiceTitan and most CRMs have their own import templates and onboarding teams. We work alongside them, prepare the data in their format and catch problems before they load. That keeps your go-live date from slipping while their team waits on your files.
Not everything needs to move. Recent guests, open orders, balances, equipment or property details and service history usually come over. Very old records and dead leads can be archived in a file you keep, which keeps the new system fast and clean.
A single small system with clean data can move in a couple of weeks. Several systems, years of history and messy records take longer, mostly in cleanup and testing. We set a switch date with you early and plan around your slow season.
Works for a small list, but it eats staff hours and errors creep in on every page.
Gets the basics in, but it rarely cleans the data or checks that balances and history match.
We plan the move, clean and map the data, test it with you and verify everything after switch day.
