- Getting Data out of MS CRM
- Posted by mscrmuser on November 3rd, 2006
What is the best way to get all the data out of MS CRM in order to
migrate it to another CRM system? Woud the Data Migration tool work
for this? I've never used it.

If you want all the data, and all the customisations, the best option is to
use SQL backup and restore, and the CRM redeployment tool against the
restored database.
Using the Data Migration tool will be hard work for this, and has some
noticeable limitations, such as it can't be used for custom entities

The data migration is only good for importing data into CRM. I would
suggest connecting excel or access to the tables you need in SQL, and
choosing the columns you want to export.
