Following the acquisition of a company with an established set of tech tools, Travel Chapter faced the challenge of technology duplication between their existing Jira platform and the newly acquired Monday.com and Zendesk systems. To unify their operational workflows into a single ecosystem and reduce licensing costs, Travel Chapter initiated the migration of historical data and tasks from Monday.com and Zendesk to Jira.
Initial attempts to migrate using manual methods like JSON and CSV file transfers only captured basic field data, omitting crucial attachments, comments, and custom fields which often contain key insights and information vital to ongoing tasks. Recognizing the need to preserve this comprehensive context within each task, Travel Chapter sought a more capable migration solution.
The primary goal was to maintain historical integrity and functionality within Jira, allowing for the discontinuation of Monday.com and Zendesk to consolidate tools and significantly reduce related costs. The effectiveness of the migration was measured by its ability to preserve the full data spectrum, thereby eliminating the need for manual data handling and reducing overheads.
Travel Chapter required a solution that could effectively handle the complexity of migrating data from both Zendesk and Monday.com. After an extensive search through the Atlassian Marketplace and other platforms, they chose Getint based on its unique capability to support both systems, its positive reviews, and its proven track record in complex migrations. Getint’s demo and free trial showcased the functionality and reliability needed, convincing Travel Chapter to proceed with the migration.
Travel Chapter successfully migrated over 20,000 tasks with Getint’s assistance, which seamlessly handled the transfer of all essential data elements. The transition not only streamlined their operational tools into one platform but also achieved significant cost savings in software licenses and operational efficiencies. The comprehensive capability of Getint to handle diverse data types and its intuitive use led to a smooth and swift migration process, meeting all of Travel Chapter’s strategic objectives.
This case study highlights the strategic necessity of tool consolidation in modern enterprises and demonstrates the effective application of Getint in facilitating significant IT transformations within the holiday letting industry.

With the Monday.com/Zendesk <-> Jira Integration by Getint, we effortlessly synced tasks between Monday.com/Zendesk and our Jira instance.
