These are the architectural mismatches and technical hurdles specific to a Intercom to Tidio migration.
Companies, Tags, and Segments must be converted into Contact custom properties rather than migrated as separate objects in Tidio.
Tidio has no API to insert historical chat messages with past timestamps. Conversations must be converted into archived tickets instead.
Tidio's batch endpoint uses "all or nothing" strategy. One malformed email fails the entire batch of up to 100 contacts.
Tidio defaults Created At to the API call time. Original Intercom dates must be stored in a custom property like original_created_at.
Help Center content must be manually transferred or fed into Tidio's Lyro AI data source endpoint for chatbot-based knowledge access.
Our migration engineer precisely maps every data point from Intercom to Tidio, ensuring perfect continuity for your customer support operations.

“They were SO helpful. We had a few hiccups because our migration was in the middle of the process, but they were really flexible and did multiple delta migrations for us. We were able to map a lot of our old ticket data so it's usable for comparisons in the future.”
“Overall a great experience. We had to go back a few times to get everything just right, which was totally expected. The transition was smooth, and there was no data loss.”
“One of the easiest migrations I've ever been through. The team took care of everything — all our data, customer interactions and macros. The process was clear, straightforward and we felt supported all the way. An absolutely seamless experience for our support team and our customers.”
“Fantastic at both guiding us through the process and helping us fix things as they come up and dial them in.”
“The ease of the process and that ClonePartner was informing me what was going on at every step. If you're on the fence, do it. ClonePartner are great!”

The Complete Guide to Migrating from Intercom to Tidio
Planning an Intercom to Tidio migration? This guide explains data mapping, conversation history, timestamps, and common pitfalls.
Export Guide
How to Export Data from Intercom: Methods, API Limits & Transcripts
Intercom has no single "export all" button. CSV exports give you metadata but no transcripts. Cloud storage exports to S3/GCS give you JSON but still no message content. The REST API is the only way to get full conversation transcripts, but it requires an N+1 pattern (one call per conversation) and careful rate limit management. This guide covers every method end to end: authentication setup, UI export steps with expected file formats, API examples with cURL and SDK code, sample JSON response schemas, attachment handling (CDN URLs expire — download during extraction), incremental export patterns with checkpointing, a full export playbook with the correct object ordering, common troubleshooting scenarios, and security considerations for exported PII.
Choosing the right approach is key because migrating from Intercom to Tidio isn't just about moving data – it's about protecting customer relationships.
