Try: pull just a few tasks over

It helps to see your own data when trialing a new product. You can use importers in Aha! Teamwork to pull individual records from other systems into your backlog, sprint, or workflow board. Importers do not change any data in the other system, so you can import records into Aha! Teamwork without worry.

You could also take this opportunity to clean out your backlog. Import records that matter into Aha! Teamwork — and say goodbye to the rest.

Commit: migrate an entire backlog

Once you have decided to move forward with Aha! Teamwork, you may want to migrate your existing backlog.

The quickest method is to import your backlog via CSV.

  • Export your data from your existing tool

  • Use our CSV import tool to upload your data into Aha! Teamwork.

If you have connected your Aha! Teamworks account with Aha! Roadmaps and are coming from a development tool like Jira or Azure DevOps, you have an additional option. Our developer tool integrations can bulk import work from other systems — complete with attachments and rich text formatting. This process is more involved, but gives you fine-grained control of how to map data from your existing tool into Aha! Teamwork.

Finalize: transition to Aha! Teamwork

It can take time for the broader organization to update their processes. Even after you have migrated into Aha! Teamwork, you may continue to get additional work assigned to you in your previous agile project management tool.

Use an importer to pull individual records into Aha! Teamwork while your organization learns the new process. To do this, navigate to either Plans → Sprint planning or one of the Work → Board pages. Open the Import view in the sidebar to pull work into your backlog, sprint, or workflow board.
