[ Time59 to Full Data Export ]

This means that firm members can typically access Time59 from anywhere with an internet connection. When they need to use Time59, they enter Time59 credentials into a Time59 website and are able to access all their data from there.

Financial management systems are optimized around billing, invoicing, and accounting.

​

The Migration Specialist will need an Administrator username and password into Time59 in order to extract your data.

Because data is extracted from the Time59 database, the migration can be run from anywhere with access to a backup of the database.

A member of the firm will need to complete a small spreadsheet mapping users from Time59 to users in the new system.

Backups from Time59 include the contacts' current trust account balance.

The Migration Specialist is the person who will be performing this migration. They may be a member of Universal Migrator's own Internal Migration Team or any IT professional who has completed the Universal Consultant training program.

The Firm Administrator is a member of the law firm who can serve as a dedicated point of contact, make decisions, and answer any questions the Migration Consultant may have. This person should be readily available and is typically the managing partner or office manager of the firm.

With certain vendors, submitting a Notice of Termination/Non-Renewal can prompt a shift in cooperation: some will restrict or revoke export and backup capabilities, or limit the volume of data you're able to download, making migration more difficult.
To guard against this, best practice with any vendor, including Time59, is to withhold notice until you've been fully live on your new system for at least 30 days. In practice, this means your migration should be complete approximately 45 days before your notice deadline.

In Time59, some contacts have only a "Full Name" field, with nothing that definitively identifies the entry as a person or a company. Universal Migrator will attempt to determine whether each name resembles a person's name or a company name. The Migration Specialist and Firm Administrator should review these results and make adjustments as needed.
