Zoho to Salesforce Migration in Durham
Moving Durham organisations from Zoho to Salesforce, where the automation is the expensive part. Years of Zoho customisation written in Deluge — validations, calculated fields, cross-module updates — has no equivalent that transfers, so every one of those behaviours must be identified, judged still necessary and written again.
Why this comes up
The problem
Dozens of Deluge scripts run across the Zoho estate, and nobody has a list of what they do.
What you get
What we deliver
- Existing automation inventoried, since scripts accumulate without documentation
- Each behaviour assessed for whether it is still wanted before being rebuilt
- Custom modules mapped to Salesforce objects and relationships
- Records migrated across modules with their links between them preserved
- Users, roles and record visibility configured for Salesforce's model
- Ongoing cost modelled, as the platforms are priced very differently

Working in Durham
North East
Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones.

Zoho to Salesforce Migration in Durham — common questions
- Why is the automation the largest cost?
- Because it exists only as scripts nobody wrote down. Deluge functions accumulate over years, often written by people who have moved on, and each has to be read, understood and reimplemented — an exercise that regularly exceeds the data migration in effort.
- Should everything be rebuilt?
- No, and the migration is the moment to ask. A proportion of any accumulated automation solved a problem that no longer exists or works around a limitation the new platform does not have, so the inventory is as much a pruning exercise as a rebuilding one.
- How do custom modules translate?
- Into custom objects, with relationships defined explicitly. The concepts correspond reasonably well, but Salesforce's relationship types behave differently in terms of sharing and deletion, so mapping them thoughtfully matters more than it initially appears.
- What about the cost difference?
- It is usually substantial and worth modelling before committing. Salesforce is priced per user with capabilities gated by edition, and organisations moving from Zoho are often surprised by both the licence figure and the ongoing administration the platform expects.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
