This guide provides guidance for migrating tenant data and configurations when needed.

When Migration May Be Neededโ€‹

  • Server migration โ€” Moving your Perfex CRM installation to a new server
  • Database migration โ€” Changing database servers or structure
  • URL structure changes โ€” Switching between subdomain and subdirectory modes

General Migration Considerationsโ€‹
