Limited Transfer Support

Help Scout does offer migration services from Pylon. The import instrument can be used for Zendesk, Desk, and UserVoice.

If you are not importing data from those systems, you can load the CSV file or use their API. And to take advantage of the last option you must have an IT specialist as part of your crew.

Lack of devoted IT Professional

If you cannot employ the import tool or it is not working properly for you, the API method might work. Basically, you write your own migration code within the rules of the documentation and utilize it for the data transition process.

This strategy, however, will demand a coder to write a script. Chances are, the migration code might not work as wanted.
