Case Study
HubSpot Migration
$2,400/Month Saved While Gaining More Features
A marketing agency was paying $3,200/month for HubSpot with features they didn't use. We migrated 45,000 contacts over a weekend with zero downtime and unlocked SMS automation at no extra cost.
The Challenge
This marketing agency had been a loyal HubSpot customer for years, paying $3,200/month for their Marketing Hub Professional plan. But as their needs evolved, they realized they were paying for features they never used while missing critical ones they needed.
The breaking point came when they tried to add SMS automation. HubSpot quoted them an additional $500+/month for SMS capabilitieson top of their already hefty bill.
The HubSpot Pain Points:
- ✗Paying $3,200/month for features largely unused
- ✗SMS automation required $500+/month add-on
- ✗45,000 contacts with years of engagement history to migrate
- ✗Complex workflows that needed to continue running
- ✗Could not afford any downtime during migration
The agency CEO knew they were overpaying, but the thought of migrating 45,000 contacts with all their associated data, workflows, and automations was terrifying. They'd heard horror stories of migrations gone wrong—lost data, broken workflows, weeks of chaos.
The Solution
We developed a comprehensive migration plan that would move everything from HubSpot to Vantage CRM over a single weekend—with zero disruption to their business operations.
Full Data Migration
All 45,000 contacts with complete history, custom fields, tags, and engagement data transferred intact.
Workflow Rebuilding
Every automation was rebuilt with enhancements—taking the opportunity to optimize what wasn't working.
SMS & Calling Included
SMS automation and calling features integrated at no extra cost—saving $500+/month from day one.
Team Training
Complete team training before cutover ensured everyone was comfortable with the new system from day one.
The Weekend Migration Plan:
Friday 6PM: Begin data export from HubSpot with full audit trail
Friday 11PM: Data transformation and cleaning complete
Saturday 8AM: Begin import into Vantage CRM with validation checks
Saturday 4PM: All contacts imported, begin workflow rebuilding
Sunday 10AM: All workflows rebuilt and tested with sample data
Sunday 6PM: Team training session via video call
Monday 8AM: Full cutover complete, HubSpot deactivated
The Results
The migration was completed flawlessly over the weekend. When the team logged in Monday morning, everything was ready—and they immediately started seeing the benefits.
