Automated options that add ease and flexibility to your HelpDesk data import
Add tags to newly migrated tickets
Help Desk Migration automatically tags imported tickets in HelpDesk, keeping your workspace organized during migration to an existing account. This minimizes downtime and ensures all transferred data is easy to find and manage right after the move.
Migrate the newest records first
The system starts with your newest tickets, moving backward in time. You can continue using HelpDesk during and after the HelpDesk import, with fresh data prioritized to reduce downtime and keep customer service smooth and uninterrupted.
Skip attachments
Avoid migrating unnecessary attachments entirely or from selected date ranges. This saves time, cuts costs, and reduces cleanup before or after transfer. Your new HelpDesk stays lean and focused on what matters most.
Migrate side conversations
From Zendesk, side conversations come through as private notes in HelpDesk. Keep all team discussions intact to preserve context, improve support, and facilitate agent training and performance tracking.
Migrate call recordings
Zendesk call recordings transfer as MP3 files. Perfect for call centers moving to HelpDesk, this feature keeps your entire interaction history intact for better follow-ups, training, and performance reviews.
Migrate inline images as attachments
Visual content embedded in tickets moves into HelpDesk as attachments. This preserves full conversation context, helping your team better understand customer issues and use visuals for training purposes and quality checks.
Use Custom Demo
Pick 20 tickets to run a one-time test migration. This extra demo helps you confidently check tricky data sets, with unlimited Free Demo runs before you commit to a full move.
Migrate customers associated with tickets
When moving to HelpDesk, you can seamlessly transfer customers together with their associated tickets, ensuring all relationships and history remain intact.
Special features that help you avoid downtime during the HelpDesk data import
Delta migration
Delta migration runs after the Full Data Migration, moving only new or updated records created during the transfer. This keeps your old system working smoothly with zero downtime while Help Desk Migration imports data to HelpDesk.
Delta Migration is a perfect option for busy schedules when you can’t pause operations but still want to keep your data fresh and up to date throughout the process.
Interval migration
Interval migration breaks your data into smaller chunks and moves them one by one on a set schedule. This way, you can use your target system during business hours and have the data migrate on weekends.
Interval migration is ideal for large data volumes or when you urgently need to adopt a new system with zero downtime and no disruption notifications.
