How to migrate from Customer.io to UserFlux
Migrating from Customer.io to UserFlux means moving from a standalone messaging platform to a unified CDP with built-in automation. Instead of piping data from a separate CDP into Customer.io for messaging, UserFlux gives you data collection, audience segmentation, analytics, and multi-channel automation in a single warehouse-native platform. Most teams complete the migration in 3-5 weeks.
Your migration path from Customer.io.
Audit existing campaigns
Document your active campaigns, segments, automation workflows, and message templates in Customer.io. Identify which campaigns are critical for continuity and which can be retired.
Set up UserFlux SDK
Install the UserFlux SDK alongside your existing Customer.io integration. Begin collecting events and user data in parallel so you have a baseline before switching.
Migrate audience segments
Recreate your Customer.io segments as UserFlux audiences. UserFlux segments are powered by real-time warehouse data, so you can build more sophisticated audiences than Customer.io allows.
Recreate automation workflows
Rebuild your Customer.io campaigns and workflows as UserFlux automations. Map triggers, delays, conditions, and actions to their UserFlux equivalents.
Switch messaging channels
Configure email, push, SMS, and in-app messaging channels in UserFlux. Migrate your templates, sender domains, and delivery settings.
Decommission Customer.io
Once all campaigns are live in UserFlux and metrics are validated, remove the Customer.io integration and consolidate on a single platform.

Unified data and messaging
Stop stitching together a CDP, analytics tool, and messaging platform. UserFlux combines data collection, segmentation, analytics, and automation in one platform.
Warehouse-native architecture
Your data lives in ClickHouse, not locked inside a messaging vendor. Query it directly, join it with other sources, and maintain full data ownership.
Real-time segmentation
Build audiences from live warehouse data instead of syncing segments from external tools. Changes propagate instantly to automations and campaigns.
Built-in analytics
See campaign performance alongside product analytics, funnel data, and user behavior — no need to export data to a separate analytics tool.
