Migrate from Unify to Ceven in 6 steps

  1. Inventory Your Workflows

    Start by taking stock of what you have in Unify. List out each automation and workflow by outcome, not by step, to focus on the end results you want to achieve in Ceven.

  2. Connect Your Apps in Ceven

    Ceven connects to 1,000+ tools, so start by connecting the same apps you use in Unify. This ensures that your data flows seamlessly between the two platforms as you migrate.

  3. Describe the Outcomes to Rebuild

    Instead of recreating each step from Unify, describe the outcomes you want to achieve in Ceven. This will help you build more efficient and effective workflows, taking advantage of Ceven's AI capabilities.

  4. Add AI Steps and Approval Gates

    Identify areas in Unify where workflows were brittle or prone to errors. In Ceven, add AI steps to automate decision-making and human-approval gates to ensure accuracy and compliance.

  5. Validate in Parallel

    Run both Unify and Ceven in parallel on real data. This allows you to validate that the workflows in Ceven are working as expected before making the full switch.

  6. Schedule and Cut Over

    Once you have validated the workflows in Ceven, schedule a cutover date. Ensure that all stakeholders are informed and that the transition is smooth. Use human-approval gates on writes to systems of record during this period.

Why teams switch from Unify to Ceven

Teams often switch from Unify to Ceven for enhanced workflow capabilities and greater flexibility. Ceven's ability to connect to 1,000+ tools and run end-to-end workflows with AI steps and human-approval gates makes it a powerful platform for automating sales and outreach processes. Additionally, Ceven's no-code platform allows for the building and hosting of custom pages and apps, providing a more comprehensive solution for sales teams.

What moves over and what doesn't

Migrating from Unify to Ceven involves rebuilding your automations and workflows. The actual data and sequences from Unify do not automatically transfer to Ceven. Instead, you will reconfigure your workflows in Ceven, taking advantage of its unique features and capabilities. The connected apps and integrations you use in Unify can be reconnected in Ceven, ensuring a smooth data flow.

Avoiding the common pitfalls

One common pitfall is trying to recreate each step from Unify in Ceven. Instead, focus on the outcomes you want to achieve and rebuild your workflows to be more efficient and effective. Another pitfall is not validating the workflows in Ceven before cutting over. Running both platforms in parallel on real data ensures a smooth transition. Additionally, ensure that all stakeholders are informed and that the cutover is well-planned and executed.
