Migration vs Integration

Getint offers two fundamental functionalities: data migration and integration. Understanding the difference between these two is key to optimizing your use of the platform.

Migration is a premium feature that is limited during the trial version. For detailed pricing information based on the volume of tasks, visit Getint Pricing and click on Migration.

Data Migration

Definition and Use Case

Data migration in Getint refers to the process of moving historical data—the information that existed before you started using Getint. This is crucial when transitioning from one tool to another, ensuring that all records are preserved. Typical use cases involve migrating data from one platform to another, such as:

  • Jira to Azure DevOps

  • Asana to Jira

  • ClickUp to Monday.com

Project Nature

Migration projects are generally one-time operations designed to move a large volume of data within a limited timeframe. This process ensures that historical data is seamlessly transferred to the new system, maintaining the continuity of your workflows.

Data Integration

Definition and Use Case

Data integration connects newly created or recently updated items—tasks, service requests, bugs, etc.—in real-time or near real-time. This ongoing process begins the moment you start using Getint, keeping your systems synchronized as new data is generated.

Project Nature

Integrations are typically long-term, ongoing projects. They involve syncing smaller batches of data regularly, often daily. Integration is essential for maintaining continuous data flow between different platforms as updates and new items are created.

Combining Migration and Integration

Some projects require both: initially migrating historical items and then continuously syncing new updates or creations. This approach ensures a comprehensive transition to a new system, followed by consistent and up-to-date synchronization moving forward.

Pricing Models

  • Migrations: The cost is based on the volume of tasks to be migrated.

  • Integrations: For integrations involving Jira, pricing is based on the number of Jira users, and billed via the Atlassian Marketplace. Non-Jira integrations are billed through us directly, and they are available in three different plans:

    • Unlimited $1,800/year - Supported Tools: ClickUp, Monday, Asana, GitLab, GitHub, Wrike, Hubspot, Zendesk.

    • Professional $4,800/year - Supported Tools: ServiceNow, Salesforce, Azure DevOps.

    • Enterprise - Custom Pricing: An unlimited number of tools are supported.

Setup Process

The setup for both migration and integration is nearly identical in Getint. For migrations, additional steps include enabling the migration feature, specifying the direction (source and target systems), and defining the time range for the issues to be migrated.

Understanding these differences and the specific requirements of your project will help you effectively leverage Getint for your data management needs—whether you're transitioning to a new system or maintaining ongoing synchronization between platforms.
