Migration
Your records come with you
Whether you run Collaborate today or another system, your history comes with you.
Already a Collaborate client
The new Collaborate is a ground-up rebuild, and existing clients are moving to it.
- Your setup, rebuilt. Your forms and programs are rebuilt as your own configuration, not squeezed into a template.
- Your fields keep their names. Questions carry the field names you use today, so your data maps across by name.
- Your funder knowledge, kept. The VOCA and NCA rules behind your reports today are the spec the new reports are built on.
Your Network Ninja contact will walk you through the move. Questions now? Book a call.
What you gain
- Funder reports computed by Collaborate's tested reports, so the same report gives the same numbers every run.
- The Funder Compliance tab, showing missing funder data before a report is due.
- The reporting agent, the AI assistant that runs your funder reports. Ask it for your VOCA, VAWA, SASP, NCA, HMIS, IFSATS or TANF report in chat.
- Demographics captured once and shared by every form.
- A client portal, Fill or Sign, and Spanish throughout.
- Separation between organizations enforced by the database itself.
Coming from another system
- Bring your exports. Drag and drop several files at once, then join, transform and filter them on the way in.
- Map each column to people, cases and forms in your new programs.
- Dry run first. Every import is tested before it writes anything, and a real run is blocked until the dry run comes back clean.
- Undo. Roll back a committed import in one step.
- Network Ninja runs large migrations with you. For years of history across many programs, we do the migration together.
Set up right on day one
- Your programs are built from your organization type and your funders, with VOCA, NCA and HMIS fields in place and VAWA, SASP, IFSATS and TANF reports included.
- The Funder Compliance tab shows which required data points your imported records already cover, and which are gaps.
“It's professionalized our data collection and reporting so much. Previous to Collaborate, some of our centers were still using spreadsheets. No one was on a unified system. With Collaborate, we brought everybody together.”
