How it works
How are you moving off Zendesk?
Every migration is different. We handle all three.
Full migration
Move everything: tickets, contacts, KB articles, custom fields, attachments. Your complete history lands in the new platform.
Example: A 50-person support team switching platforms at renewal.
Merge multiple instances
Consolidate separate instances into one environment. We handle deduplication and field conflicts.
Example: Post-acquisition teams merging two accounts into one.
Partial migration
Filter by date range, ticket status, tags, or any criteria. Move only what matters and leave the rest behind.
Example: Migrating only open tickets and last 12 months of history.

Zendesk migration questions
Side conversations come over as private comments on the parent ticket. The content, timestamps, and participants are preserved.
Yes. We can filter by status, date range, tags, or any combination. You control exactly what moves.
Macros and triggers are documented and mapped to the equivalent in your target platform. We review the mapping with your team before running it.
We set up redirects from old article URLs to the new ones. Your SEO rankings and bookmarked links keep working.
We map every custom field type (text, dropdown, checkbox, date, number) to its equivalent in the target platform. Fields that don't have a direct match get converted to the closest type with your approval.
We can migrate all brands into one environment or keep them separate. Multi-brand migrations are one of our most common scenarios.
Depends on data volume. Small instances (under 10,000 tickets) finish in hours. Larger ones take a few days. We always run a demo migration first so you know the timeline before committing.
No. Zendesk stays fully operational the whole time. We use delta sync to pick up anything that changes while the migration runs, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Call recordings transfer as attachments on the ticket. All file attachments, inline images, and embedded content are migrated with their original timestamps and associations.
Every migration starts with a free demo migration on your actual data. You review the results, verify field mappings, and sign off before we touch production.
We can auto-create missing agents in the target platform, map them to existing agents, or reassign their tickets. You choose the approach during the scoping call.
Pricing is based on record volume. The fastest way to get a number is to run a free demo migration. Takes about 15 minutes to set up, no commitment required.
What our customers say
“We kept losing deals because customers were scared of the migration. Now I just loop in MigrateX early and it stops being a blocker. Three clients closed last quarter that definitely would've stalled.”
Lorraine Lee
Regional Sales Director, HAND Global Solutions
“We'd been on Zendesk for years and the thought of moving everything over was honestly terrifying. 40,000+ tickets, all our custom fields, attachments. I kept expecting something to break. Nothing did.”
