Reviewed against the source
Your reviewers check the reports before accepting the archive. Some records may be needed in both systems.
For software vendors and their customers
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
Older records often reflect processes, codes and field formats that the new system no longer uses. Making all that history fit can add conversion work and delay go-live, while keeping the old system for lookups means paying for its licensing and upkeep. LiftShift Records keeps the history accessible without requiring it all to fit the new application.
For current work
It gets the data its workflows run on, validated against the vendor’s supported fields and import requirements.
Data migration servicesFor historical access
Staff search it, open a record as a readable report and export a PDF. The reports start with the fields that matter most.

With an active subscription, LiftShift revises mappings and reports over retained data for your team to verify and release. Reopening a finished migration can require another conversion, import and validation.
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.

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.
