Projects & Ops Migration
Migrate From Trello.
Same cards. Now attached to the client, the site and the invoice.
Flight Check
Why Teams Move Off Trello.
These are the reasons people actually give us — not every one will be yours, and if none of them are, Trello is probably still the right tool.
- Boards are fine until you need them connected to a client or an invoice
- Power-Ups accumulate to cover the gaps, each with its own cost
- There is no natural home for the client the board is about
- Reporting across boards means exporting to a spreadsheet
We Set It Up On Your Hosting. No Forever Fees.
SimplerDevelopment is Apache-2.0 and self-hostable, so a migration does not have to end with you renting your own business back. We stand the platform up on your hosting and your database, move your data into it, hand over the keys, and leave. After that you pay your infrastructure provider — not a per-seat licence to us, and not a fee that climbs every time your list or your team grows.
If you would rather not run it yourself, we offer managed hosting too. That is a choice you can reverse — the code is yours either way, and so is the data.
You own the deployment
Your host, your Postgres, your domain.
You own the code
Apache-2.0 — fork it, extend it, keep it.
You can leave
Export the data and go. No exit fee, no hostage.
Cargo Manifest
What Moves, And Where It Lands.
Every row below is something we actually move out of Trello, and how it gets there.
Most boards: 2–5 days. Scope and price are fixed before we start.
Honest Log Entry
What Doesn’t Come Across.
Every migration loses something. Here is what, so you hear it from us now rather than discover it in week three.
- Power-Ups do not transfer; whatever they added is replaced with a native feature or dropped deliberately
- Attachments are re-uploaded to the media library, so links inside card text are rewritten
- Card activity history beyond comments is not reproduced
Stay on Trello if you use one simple board, love it, and nothing about it needs to know who the client is.
Destination
What You Land In.
A migration is only worth it if the destination is better. These are the modules your data ends up inside — all sharing one database, one login, one bill.

Trello Migration, Answered.
- How do I migrate from Trello to SimplerDevelopment?
- We do it for you. You export from Trello (or give us access), we import and rebuild inside SimplerDevelopment, you review it on a staging URL, and we cut over with redirects in place. Most boards: 2–5 days. You get a fixed scope and a fixed price before any work starts.
- What does a Trello migration cost?
- It depends on size — page count, record count, and how much custom behaviour has to be rebuilt rather than moved. We quote each migration against its own scope after looking at your actual Trello account, and that price does not move once agreed. Send the details through the form on this page and you will normally have a number back within one working day.
- Will I lose my search rankings moving off Trello?
- That is the risk we plan around first. Slugs are preserved wherever possible, everything else is mapped to a redirect, and metadata and structured data move with the content. Rankings normally settle within a few weeks; a migration that skips the redirect map is the one that loses traffic.
- What does not transfer from Trello?
- Power-Ups do not transfer; whatever they added is replaced with a native feature or dropped deliberately. We tell you this before you commit rather than after, and anything that has to be rebuilt is priced in the quote instead of appearing as a surprise mid-project.
- Do I have to keep paying you after the migration?
- No. SimplerDevelopment is Apache-2.0 and self-hostable, so we can stand it up on your own hosting and your own database and hand over the keys. After that you pay your infrastructure provider, not a licence fee to us. If you would rather we ran it, managed hosting is available — but it is a choice, not a condition.
