Migrating your Recruitment CRM data traditionally used to be slow, painful, error prone and rarely deliver on their promises. It also used to impact everyone in the business negatively for a decent period of time, even if the project was deemed a ‘success’. The FD feels the pain, the MDs feel the pain and the Recruiters, often commission-based, feel the pain mentally and financially.
No, migrating to Voyager Infinity, or another CRM for that matter, doesn’t have to be an arduous process for everyone – not these days. What was once a complex, time-consuming and risky business project, can now be undertaken with relative ease. Nope, stop the excuses, stop holding yourself back. Stop fearing the fear. Migrating your data, your workflows and finding a smarter way to work is a simpler process than you may think.
Data migration and our experience
Over the past decade, the Voyager Infinity implementation team has completed hundreds of migrations from competing systems. We have refined the data migration process for many products. Our team regularly migrates data from Bullhorn, Bond Adapt, RDB Pro/ProNet, Access, Firefish, Microdec Profile, Eclipse, Zoho Recruit, Red Rabbit, Influence, Vincere… Data migration also works for your spreadsheets and Outlook contacts. Additionally, we can help you with data cleansing and deduplication so you can start with the best possible data set.
How does it work?
There are two different paths to successful data migration. It’s up to you to decide which method works best for your business:
- The first option is for you to rely on us do the work for you while you sit back and relax. We’ll review your data and let you know what we can move to Voyager Infinity safely and quickly. All you need to do is check whether the migration was completed correctly. Once the process is published, you can go live.
• The second method is to migrate only the data that you specify, allowing you to leave behind any unnecessary data. This path requires your own involvement because we need to sit down with you and discuss exactly what data you need to migrate before we can test, validate, and put it into operation.
Our team of experts ensures the process is smooth and stress-free. With our team working on migrating in the background you can focus on your normal search activities without worrying about interruptions, regardless of your company size.
Next steps
We will ensure from the start from when you’re live that you start to familiarise yourself with the new system with our friendly training team. In addition to targeted training and 24/7 support, we offer an extensive training material and video library in the customer area of the website, as well as regular online training seminars on specific topics (which can also be accessed on demand).
When you switch to new recruiting software, you want to know that your data is safe. We’ll guide you through the process as quickly and smoothly as possible. Simply concentrate on your business’ expertise and leave the secure data migration with us.
Client quotes
“We migrated fifty recruiters across five locations, including a full back-office team, onto the Voyager Infinity solution within 8 weeks. There were teething issues, but nothing that the Ikiru People team couldn’t overcome. Migrations are stressful enough, but we were fully supported by a team of knowledgeable and solution-orientated people which made all the difference.” – Sphere Solutions
“The support, service and motivational uplift we’ve had by investing in Voyager Infinity, and the team that delivers it, has been transformational in our business. Speak to Paul and his team. From sales to project planning, data migration and training, the VIP service and support has been brilliant!” – Equation Recruitment
“Simple Recruitment has migrated from one of the best know names in the market onto Voyager Infinity and we’ve got nothing but good things to say about the team at Ikiru People – they are fantastic. Trust me, bite the bullet, make the move – you need to upgrade!” – Simple Recruitment
“When you have been the customer of a service for such a long time, moving on to a different provider seems daunting. Access/RDB had been Harrison Scott’s MIS programmer for 25 years. The product became outdated and the service was poor, but we became so used to their systems and processes, and the thought of switching seemed like more hassle than it’s worth. It finally became the time to bite the bullet and make that change. We shopped around, and came across Voyager Infinity, a system provided by Ikiru People. Impressed by their demos and service provided during the sales process, we decided to name them our new system provider. I cannot praise their team enough – every question we have had was answered promptly, and an issue we have come across has been resolved efficiently. The system is a dream to use and is already increasing the number of invoices we are sending out.” – Harrison Scott Associates
“I can honestly say the migration has been superb. The project management, training and ongoing support has been exemplary, as was the data migration service.” – Grist Legal
“The Ikiru People team basically amalgamated two old databases. We had Act! which we used for our clients, and we had a separate CRM for candidates. They took both databases and brought them both onto Voyager Infinity with very little effort.” – Pyramid8
“The migration went as smoothly as we could have possibly hoped for. I would have honestly expected a few more hiccups, so it exceeded my expectations.” – Morgan Law
