Migrate from Zoho Campaigns to Zoho MarketingHub

Migrate from Zoho Campaigns to Zoho MarketingHub

Introduction

Before you switch from Zoho Campaigns to Zoho MarketingHub, it is important to have a basic understanding of what this migration process is, how to proceed and most importantly, the do's and don'ts during migration. In this article, we'll lay out the process of migrating from Campaigns to MarketingHub, walk through the best practices, and share helpful tips to ensure your email campaigns, workflows, and other data migrate seamlessly over to MarketingHub.

Before diving into migration, let's consider the following user scenarios:
  1. I want to use both Zoho Campaigns and Zoho MarketingHub for my account simultaneously. Can I use my Campaigns' data in MarketingHub?
  2. I want to create a distinct account for MarketingHub.
  3. I want to migrate my data from Zoho Campaigns to Zoho MarketingHub.

I want to use both Zoho Campaigns and Zoho MarketingHub for my organization simultaneously. Can I use my Campaigns' data in MarketingHub?

You have the option to use both Zoho Campaigns and Zoho MarketingHub simultaneously, and use your Campaigns' data with MarketingHub(also vice-versa). You can simply share your data between the two apps.
 
When you sign up to MarketingHub and choose to have a shared account, you'll be prompted to select the Campaigns features (email campaigns, mailing lists, etc.) that you want to share with MarketingHub. The ones you choose to share will be listed in MarketingHub, but you won't be able to edit/delete them (read-only mode). You can also instantly clone Campaigns features that are being shared in MarketingHub and use them. This also means that there is no need to migrate your data from one to the other.

If you wish to be able to share or migrate, you'll have to delete your MarketingHub account and sign up for it again. When you sign up, click Create shared account. You'll be able to migrate only when you have a shared account.

How to migrate?

The option to migrate your data from Zoho Campaigns will be available only after you send a request to support@zohocampaigns.com.
 You need to be an administrator in Zoho Campaigns to configure and migrate data to MarketingHub. This can only be done for a shared account. After you raise a request:
  1. From the navigation toolbar, select Settings.
  2. Choose Data Sharing under Data Administration.
  3. Click Migrate Data.



  4. Your MarketingHub subscription plan will be checked to make sure that migrating your data does not exceed the maximum limit of leads allowed for your plan.  
  5. Click Edit next to Common data to configure the features in it.
  6. Click Edit next to Shareable data to configure the features in it.
  7. Click Configure next to Non-shareable data to choose whether or not to override the MarketingHub settings with Campaigns' for pages and emails, campaign policy, and manager approval.
     


  8. Disable the toggle corresponding to the Campaigns setup that you don't want to override in MarketingHub.



  9. Click Save.



  10. Schedule the migration.
  11. Select which MarketingHub administrator you want send the migration request to. Select "All" if you want to send the request to all the administrators.



  12. Click Send for Approval.
  13. The request will be sent to the selected administrators in MarketingHub.
  14. Once your configuration is approved, migration will be scheduled. It is recommended to not perform any activities involving the data after you have scheduled the migration.
  15. The administrator in MarketingHub can deny the migration at any time.
  1. Your MarketingHub subscription plan plays a crucial role in migration. Make sure the data that is being migrated to MarketingHub does not exceed any limits listed in your subscription plan.
  2. You won't be able to initiate migration if there is any chance of exceeding the allowed limit.
  3. Do not schedule any action during the time of migration involving the data being migrated. Doing so might stop the migration abruptly.
  4. Once migration begins, both the apps will be frozen until the migration is complete.

After migration:

  1. All data in Zoho Campaigns will be deleted. User and administrators will be kept intact. 
  2. Campaign APIs will be honored and data will be added and served from MarketingHub for 30 days after migration.
  3. The MarketingHub entities that you choose to share with Campaigns will be displayed in read-only mode in Campaigns.
  4. Features you choose not to share with Campaigns will be available only in MarketingHub.
E.g. You want to share your email campaigns and mailing lists with Campaigns but don't want to share autoresponders. To do so:
  1. In MarketingHub, go to Settings and choose Data sharing under Data Administration

  2. Click Edit in the Zoho MarketingHub sub-tab.

  3. Enable the toggle corresponding to the features you want to share and disable the toggle for the ones that you don't want to share.

  4. Click Save after you are done with the selection.
Now only the selected features of Zoho MarketingHub will be shared with Campaigns and will be available in read-only mode in Campaigns.
 
Once you finish migrating your data, you can read MarketingHub's Getting Started guide (if you haven't yet) and kickstart your success with your new automation software.
