Why move

Why Irish businesses leave Excel

Spreadsheet CRM works until two people edit it at once, until a formula silently breaks, or until the person who built it leaves. There is no history, no ownership, no follow-up prompting and no way to know which leads were never contacted.

Zoho CRM is the sales system of record: leads, accounts, deals, forecasting, and the automation that moves them forward, and for most Irish teams the switch is driven by cost, by wanting fewer vendors, or by needing the rest of the business on the same platform rather than by a single missing feature.

We are not evangelists. If Excel is serving you well and the business case is thin, we will say so. Where the case holds, we move you across cleanly and reconcile the result in writing.

What we deliver

How the Excel to Zoho CRM migration runs

Five stages, a sandbox dry run before anything goes live, and a fixed quote in EUR agreed up front.

01

Excel export and audit

A complete extract from Excel, profiled for duplicates, format breaks and referential gaps before any mapping is agreed.

02

Field mapping to Zoho CRM

Every object and field mapped, picklists aligned, and the gaps between the two data models flagged in writing rather than discovered at cutover.

03

Cleansing and de-duplication

Irish Eircodes, phone formats, company names and dates standardised, duplicates merged under agreed survivorship rules.

04

Sandbox dry run

A full rehearsal load in a sandbox that you inspect against Excel, with an exception list resolved before the live run.

05

Cutover and reconciliation

Live load on an agreed window, counts and totals reconciled and signed off, and a read-only archive of Excel retained.

Local compliance

What Ireland compliance means in practice

Almost everything Irish Revenue wants arrives through ROS, and payroll arrives on or before the day people are paid. For a subsidiary of an overseas group the harder part is usually not the Irish return itself but keeping the Irish books in a shape that satisfies both Revenue and the parent's reporting calendar.

ObligationWhat the rule isWhat has to be configured
VATThe standard rate is 23 per cent, with 13.5 and 9 per cent reduced rates and a zero rate on several categories. VAT3 returns are normally bi-monthly through ROS by the 23rd, and a Return of Trading Details follows annually.Tax rules per rate and per supply type, reverse charge on intra-EU acquisitions and on construction under RCT, and a VAT3 that reconciles to the ledger without a spreadsheet in between.
PAYE ModernisationA payroll submission goes to Revenue on or before each payday, carrying PAYE, PRSI and USC for every employee. There is no annual P35.Revenue Payroll Notifications imported before each run, so employees are taxed on the credits Revenue has actually issued rather than last month's.
Relevant Contracts TaxPrincipal contractors in construction, forestry and meat processing must notify each contract and each payment to Revenue, and deduct at the rate Revenue returns.Subcontractor records that hold the RCT rate and the deduction authorisation, with payment notification built into the payment run.
Corporation tax12.5 per cent on trading income and 25 per cent on passive income, with a 15 per cent effective minimum for in-scope large groups under Pillar Two.Trading and non-trading income separated in the ledger from the start, because splitting them afterwards is where the time goes.
Companies Registration OfficeAn annual return on Form B1 within 56 days of the annual return date, with financial statements attached.Statutory accounts produced from the same ledger the management accounts come from, so the two do not have to be reconciled.
GDPRThe Data Protection Commission supervises GDPR in Ireland, and is lead supervisory authority for many of the technology companies established here.Lawful-basis and consent records held against the contact, retention applied by the system, and subject access answered from a report rather than a search of inboxes.

The filing calendar

  • Every paydayPayroll submission to Revenue through ROS
  • Bi-monthly, by the 23rdVAT3 return
  • Monthly, by the 23rdPAYE, PRSI and USC payment
  • Within 56 days of the ARDForm B1 annual return to the CRO

Who you file with

We configure the system to produce what these returns ask for, and we test it against your own transactions before go-live. We are not tax agents: your accountant or tax adviser signs the return, and rates and thresholds change, so treat this as the shape of the work rather than advice. Last reviewed 15 September 2026.

FAQ

Excel to Zoho CRM migration: questions answered

How does PAYE Modernisation change the payroll process?
A payroll submission goes to Revenue on or before each payday, carrying PAYE, PRSI and USC for every employee, and there is no annual P35 to catch up on. The part that matters in setup is importing Revenue Payroll Notifications before each run, so people are taxed on the credits Revenue has actually issued.
Will we lose our Excel history when we move to Zoho CRM?
No. Notes, attachments, activity history and closed records come across alongside the master data. Losing history is the quickest way to lose user trust in the new system, so we treat it as in scope from the start.
How long does a Excel to Zoho CRM migration take?
For a typical Irish SME, two to five weeks including the dry run and reconciliation. Spreadsheet data has no validation, so profiling and standardisation take most of the effort. Expect duplicates, inconsistent company names and dates stored as text.
What usually goes wrong in a Excel migration?
Spreadsheet CRM works until two people edit it at once, until a formula silently breaks, or until the person who built it leaves. There is no history, no ownership, no follow-up prompting and no way to know which leads were never contacted. We surface these during profiling, before the quote is fixed, rather than raising them as change requests halfway through.
Can we run Excel and Zoho CRM in parallel?
For finance migrations we usually recommend one parallel period so the numbers can be compared. For CRM and support tools, parallel running splits the team's attention, so we prefer a clean cutover with the old system left read-only.
What happens to our Excel licences?
Keep them read-only until reconciliation is signed off and your first full period has closed on Zoho CRM, then cancel. We plan the timing so you are not paying for both any longer than necessary.
Do you migrate custom fields and workflows too?
Custom fields, yes. Workflows are rebuilt rather than copied, because automation designed for Excel rarely maps cleanly and is usually worth simplifying while you have the chance.
Do you work with businesses outside Dublin?
Yes. We deliver remotely across the whole Ireland, from Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, Drogheda, Kilkenny, Sligo, Athlone, Wexford, Ennis and Letterkenny to smaller towns, with on-site visits available for larger rollouts.
Do you sign an NDA before we share our data?
Yes, as a matter of course. We also work in a sandbox with masked or sample data wherever the real thing is not needed, and document the processing arrangement for your GDPR records.

Where Zoho CRM is weak - and what we do about it

Reporting is good but not a BI tool - anything beyond standard dashboards needs Zoho Analytics. Territory management is basic below the Enterprise tier, and heavy custom logic ends up in Deluge, which is quick to write and harder to maintain than real code.

How we handle it: We keep automation in the standard rules where we can, put genuine reporting in Analytics, and tell you before the project which tier you actually need.
