How to Migrate from Integrately to Ceven
Integrately is a popular automation platform that connects over 1,000 apps with ready-made one-click automations, designed for non-technical users.
Ceven is an AI workflow automation platform that connects to 1,000+ tools, runs end-to-end workflows on a schedule with AI steps and human-approval gates, and can build & host no-code pages/apps.
Migrate from Integrately to Ceven in 5 steps
Inventory your automations by outcome
First, list all your Integrately automations, noting what each automation achieves. Group them by outcome, not by tool. This will help you rebuild them more efficiently in Ceven.
Connect the same apps in Ceven
Sign up for Ceven and connect the same apps you used in Integrately. Ceven supports a wide range of integrations, so you should find most, if not all, of your connected apps available.
Describe the outcomes to rebuild
Instead of recreating each automation one-for-one, focus on the outcomes you listed. Use Ceven's more capable workflow builder to consolidate and streamline your automations. For example, use AI steps to enrich data, and add human-approval gates where Integrately's automations were brittle.
Validate in parallel
Run your Integrately automations and Ceven workflows side by side on real data. Use human-approval gates on writes to systems of record. This ensures data integrity and allows you to compare results.
Schedule and cut over
Once you've validated that Ceven's workflows are working as expected, schedule a cutover. This could be a simple matter of turning off Integrately automations and ensuring Ceven workflows are active, or it could involve a phased approach.
Why teams switch from Integrately to Ceven
Teams often switch from Integrately to Ceven for several reasons. Ceven offers more advanced features like AI steps and human-approval gates, which can make workflows more robust and intelligent. Additionally, Ceven's ability to build and host no-code pages and apps provides a more comprehensive solution for automation needs.
Ceven's scheduling capabilities allow for more complex and nuanced workflows, which can be particularly useful for teams that need to automate processes that occur at specific times or under certain conditions. Moreover, Ceven's interface and workflow builder are designed to be intuitive and powerful, catering to both technical and non-technical users.
What moves over and what doesn't
When migrating from Integrately to Ceven, what moves over are the automations themselves, but not the specific configurations. You will need to rebuild your automations in Ceven, but this also gives you the opportunity to optimize and streamline them. The connections to your apps and tools will move over, as Ceven supports a wide range of integrations.
What doesn't move over are the specific triggers, actions, and conditions set up in Integrately. You will need to recreate these in Ceven, but this process can be simplified by focusing on the outcomes of your automations rather than the specific steps. Additionally, any custom scripts or code used in Integrately will need to be recreated in Ceven, though Ceven's no-code capabilities may reduce the need for custom scripting.
Avoiding the common pitfalls
A common pitfall when migrating from Integrately to Ceven is trying to recreate automations one-for-one. Instead, focus on the outcomes you want to achieve and use Ceven's more advanced features to build more efficient and effective workflows. Another pitfall is not validating the new workflows in parallel with the old ones. Running both systems side by side ensures data integrity and allows for a smoother transition.
Finally, be sure to schedule your cutover carefully. Rushing the process can lead to data loss or other issues. Take the time to thoroughly test your Ceven workflows and ensure they are working as expected before making the switch. Consider phasing out Integrately automations gradually to minimize disruption.
Frequently asked
Can Ceven automatically import my Integrately automations?
No, Ceven does not support automatic import of Integrately automations. You will need to rebuild your automations in Ceven, but this process allows you to consolidate and optimize your workflows, often resulting in fewer, more capable automations.
How long does the migration process typically take?
The migration process can vary depending on the complexity and number of your automations. It is recommended to allocate sufficient time for inventorying, rebuilding, validating, and testing your workflows in Ceven. Running both systems in parallel can extend the timeline, but it ensures a smooth transition.
What happens to my data during the migration?
Your data remains in your connected apps and systems of record. Ceven does not store or manage your data but rather automates workflows around it. Running both Integrately and Ceven in parallel ensures data integrity during the migration process. Use human-approval gates on writes to systems of record to maintain data accuracy.
