Data migration and continuity

The challenge

Sponsorship migrations are risky because the important data is relational: donors, recurring gifts, sponsored people, commitments, communications, and historical context all need to stay connected. A generic import can move rows, but it does not automatically protect the sponsor-recipient relationships the program depends on.

How Gratona helped

Gratona gave Accordus a sponsorship-native structure and direct migration support. The team could map existing records into donor, recipient, commitment, and payment workflows instead of forcing sponsorship data into a generic CRM shape.

What changed

Cleaner migration path

Records were reviewed for accuracy and continuity instead of simply uploaded as a flat spreadsheet.

A system that matches the work

The resulting setup supports donor management and sponsorship operations together, so program context remains visible after migration.

Support the team could trust

Accordus highlighted responsive, hands-on guidance as a core reason the move felt controlled.
