How to migrate from PostHog to UserFlux
Migrating from PostHog to UserFlux means moving from a self-hosted analytics suite to a managed, warehouse-native platform. UserFlux also runs on ClickHouse but handles all the infrastructure for you — and adds a full CDP, marketing automation, agentic personalization, and search on top of analytics. Most teams complete the migration in 2-4 weeks.
Your migration path from PostHog.
Install the UserFlux SDK
Add the UserFlux SDK alongside your existing PostHog integration. Both can run in parallel so you never lose data during the transition.
Map events and properties
Translate your PostHog events and person properties to UserFlux equivalents. PostHog uses a similar event + person property model, so most mappings are straightforward 1:1 translations.
Configure your warehouse
Connect your existing ClickHouse instance or use UserFlux's managed infrastructure. If you are self-hosting PostHog, your ClickHouse data can be migrated directly.
Rebuild insights and dashboards
Recreate your PostHog insights — trends, funnels, retention, and paths — as UserFlux dashboards. Take advantage of SQL and natural language querying for more flexibility.
Validate data parity
Run both systems in parallel and compare key metrics — event counts, funnel conversion rates, and user counts — to ensure consistency before switching.
Cut over and remove PostHog
Once validated, remove the PostHog SDK and decommission your self-hosted infrastructure. Start leveraging automation, personalization, and search features that PostHog does not offer.
