For software vendors and their customers
Migrate what you need
Search the rest
Your new system should start with the data it runs on. The older records go to LiftShift Records, where staff find them by name, number or date and read them as clear reports designed with your team. The old system can finally be switched off.
Why archive
Retention is required
Full migration isn’t
Every system replacement reaches the same argument. The customer wants all of their history, and the new application was never designed to hold it. Convert everything, and go-live waits while a team maps fields that staff will only ever read. Leave the old system running for lookups, and someone pays its license and nurses its server for years. There is a third way.
For current work
The new application
It gets the data its workflows run on, validated against the vendor’s supported fields and import requirements.
Data migration servicesFor historical access
LiftShift Records
Staff search it, open a record as a readable report and export a PDF. The reports start with the fields that matter most.
Explore the platformGet to go-live with less to migrate
LiftShift prepares the historical reports for your customer to review, while your team works on the data needed for launch.
See the partner approachReviewed against the source. Your reviewers check the reports before accepting the archive. Some records may be needed in both systems.
How an engagement worksNot a one-time decision. If a field or report is missing later, support adds it under an active subscription. A migration is far harder to reopen.
Support after go-liveYour data is never held hostage
LiftShift Records runs in your environment or your vendor’s. We do not host your data. If the subscription ends, staff can still search and read the records. You can export your data as Parquet files at any time, with or without an active subscription.
Data & AccessWho we work with

Launch sooner with less to migrate
Convert only what your software needs. The history goes to LiftShift Records, so it doesn’t hold up go-live or turn into feature requests.

Retire the old system
Staff keep finding, reading and exporting old reports after the application they came from is gone.

A familiar request, years later
Someone will ask for a report from 2009
It might be a records request, a subpoena or a detective reopening a case. The system that report was written in may be long gone. In LiftShift Records, a clerk types a name, opens the report and reads it with the related people, vehicles and evidence one click away. Try it with Harrington and 2009.
