What to consider when migrating from one BPM tool to another

Migrating from a BPM tool requires evaluating data portability, mapping active processes, reconfiguration costs, and the risk of operational disruption — before making any decision.

Why companies reach this decision

BPM migration is rarely planned from the start. It happens when the current platform can't keep up with company growth, when maintenance costs become too high, or when integration needs emerge that the tool doesn't support natively.

What drives the decision to switch:

A platform that requires IT or consultants for simple adjustments
Lack of native ERP and financial system integration
Rising costs without proportional feature improvements
Processes that drifted back out of the system and into spreadsheets

What to evaluate before migrating

Data export: does the current tool allow exporting historical records?
Process reconfiguration: how many flows need to be rebuilt? Is there an assisted migration tool?
Transition period: can both platforms run in parallel for a period?
Team training: how long does it take for the team to operate the new platform?
Implementation support: does the new vendor offer free assistance with the initial setup?
