Why Migrate with Help Desk Migration Instead of Native Importers?

The native data importer is the right tool for seeding your account structure – it imports users, organizations, and custom objects from a CSV. It does not import tickets, comments, attachments, or knowledge base articles; those require the Ticket Import API and developer work.

Help Desk Migration automates the full data set – tickets with comment threads, attachments, notes, custom fields, side conversations, and your entire knowledge base – with relationships preserved and no coding. Run a free Demo Migration to see exactly how your records map before any Full Migration.

Help Desk Migration enables the transfer of your full support history and operations beyond what the native importer offers:

Full data relationships preserved – Tickets, contacts, organizations, and knowledge base articles migrate together, with all their connections intact – not as isolated records you have to relink manually.

Migrate from 100+ platforms, not just CSV – Import directly from Freshdesk, Salesforce, Intercom, and other systems, without manually exporting and reformatting data first.

Automated field mapping – About 95% of fields are mapped for you automatically, instead of manually matching every column yourself.

Attachments, images, and call recordings included – Inline images convert automatically into attachments, and call recordings transfer intact – the native importer doesn't handle either.

Test before you commit – Run a free Demo Migration with real sample records to see exactly how your data will look before running a Full Migration. The native importer offers no preview step.

Zero downtime, scheduled around your business – Use Interval Migration to import around business hours, and Delta Migration to catch any new records after your test run – no manual re-uploading required.

Enterprise-grade security and compliance – Migrations are handled with top-tier security standards, including options for private cloud hosting for companies with data residency requirements.

The native importer moves data. Help Desk Migration moves your entire support operation – accurately, securely, and without the manual cleanup. – Map ticket, contact, organization, and article fields while preserving relationships. Match agents and assign a default agent to handle data from inactive users.

Automated Options & Customizations

Advanced customizations – Request tailored adjustments to a default help desk migration to ensure a smooth migration.

Migrate inline images as attachments – Inline images convert automatically into ticket attachments, with quality fully preserved.

Add tags to migrated tickets – Automatically tag every migrated ticket for easier organization and faster search.

Filter your data – Narrow your migration by Subject, Group, Channel, Status, Priority, Brand, Form, creation date, tags, or custom fields, so you move only the records you need.

Update cross-links between articles – Internal links between knowledge base articles are automatically updated, so nothing breaks after migration.

Need something beyond these defaults? Our team offers custom development and advanced customizations to tailor your migration to more specific requirements.

Delta Migration – After your Full Migration, automatically capture any tickets or records that were created or updated in the meantime, so nothing gets left behind between your test and your final cutover.

Interval Migration – Schedule your Zendesk import to run around business hours, minimizing disruption to your live support operations. Pause the migration up to 5 times, with each pause lasting up to 5 days, giving you full control over timing without restarting the process.
