Migration Guide

Migrating from ClickUp to Aha!

The main reason teams move from ClickUp to Aha! is roadmapping. Aha!'s approach — best-in-class roadmapping capabilities — highly visual, presentation-ready roadmaps with multiple views (timeline, portfolio, strategy) — suits scaleup and enterprise teams that have outgrown ClickUp's model. Here's how to migrate without losing historical context.

Migration Steps

1

Audit and export your current workspace

Before touching Aha!, document what lives in ClickUp: projects and tasks, custom fields, automations, integrations, and team permissions. Export a full CSV backup — most tools support this from Settings → Export. Pay particular attention to any custom fields and workflow automations that your team relies on daily.

2

Set up your Aha! workspace

Create your Aha! workspace and replicate your project structure using epics, stories, and sprints. Aha! starts at $59/user/mo/user/mo — budget $49/user/mo more per user. Run with a single pilot team before migrating everyone.

3

Map your workflow equivalents

Find the closest Aha! equivalent for each ClickUp feature your team relies on. projects and tasks in ClickUp maps to epics, stories, and sprints in Aha!. Aha! supports custom fields — recreate your ClickUp field schema here first. Gantt-style timeline views are available if your team used them in ClickUp. Prioritise the critical path: task creation, status tracking, and assignment.

4

Import your data

Aha! supports CSV import for tasks and projects and has 20+ native integrations. After importing, rebuild your key automations — Aha!'s automation engine can replicate most rules you had in ClickUp. Start with your most active project rather than importing everything at once.

5

Onboard your team

Run a 30-minute walkthrough covering the daily workflow: how to create epics, stories, and sprints, update status, and find your board. Expect a moderate ramp — most engineers and PMs hit their stride within a week. The biggest adjustment is usually the sprint ceremony workflow.

6

Run ClickUp in parallel for two weeks

Keep ClickUp read-only while your team works primarily in Aha!. This reduces risk and lets people reference historical context — old decisions, archived tickets, past sprint data — without slowing the migration. After two weeks with no new work going into ClickUp, archive the workspace and make Aha! the official home.
