Bullhorn to Zoho Recruit, with zero data loss

Stratostaff EA, a recruitment firm, needed to move its entire recruitment history from Bullhorn to Zoho Recruit. We mapped Bullhorn's records to Zoho Recruit and migrated the full history and its documents, with no records lost along the way.

Email and files

Mailboxes and shared files onto your own domain.

  • Mailbox migration to Zoho Mail or Google Workspace
  • Domain verification and DNS setup
  • Shared files into Zoho WorkDrive or Google Drive
  • Folder permissions recreated

Custom and legacy systems

How we keep your data safe

  1. 1

    Audit and export

    We review what data you have, where it lives and its quality, then export everything safely.

  2. 2

    Field mapping

    Every field and relationship is mapped to the new system, and you approve the mapping before we move anything.

  3. 3

    Cleaning

    Duplicates are merged, phone numbers and dates standardised, and incomplete records flagged for you.

  4. 4

    Test migration

    A sample is migrated first so your team can check it in the new system and we can fix any gaps.

  5. 5

    Full migration and checks

    The full migration runs, record counts are reconciled against the source, and we plan the switch-over with your team.

Most migrations happen alongside a new system. We handle both, so the data lands in a setup that is already configured for your process. See Zoho implementation and custom software.

Data migration FAQs

Will we lose any data during the migration?

We migrate a test sample first, then reconcile record counts between the old and new systems after the full migration so nothing is missed. For Stratostaff EA we moved 56,000 records and 118GB of data from Bullhorn to Zoho Recruit with zero data loss.

Can you migrate our data from Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Spreadsheets are the most common starting point. We clean and structure the data, then import it into Zoho CRM, Zoho Books or your new system with the right fields and relationships.

Can you migrate attachments and files as well as records?

Yes. Documents, CVs and attachments can be moved with the records they belong to, and shared files can be moved into Zoho WorkDrive or Google Drive.

Can you move our email to Zoho Mail or Google Workspace?

Yes. We set up business email on your domain, verify the domain and migrate existing mailboxes, as we did for Afrowave Creatives.

Do we have to stop working while the data is moved?

We plan the switch-over with your team so day-to-day work carries on, and agree a cut-over point for moving any records added during the project.

How much does a data migration cost?

It depends on the number of records, how many sources the data comes from, how much cleaning it needs and whether files and attachments are included. After a free scoping call we send a fixed quote. Migrations that are part of a Zoho implementation are quoted together with the setup.
