Project Migration Powered By CDE Sync:
Seamless Migration for Large Projects and Enterprise Platforms.
Moving projects between platforms shouldn't mean losing your history or starting from scratch. Whether you're upgrading to a new version of your current CDE, switching vendors entirely, or consolidating multiple systems, CDE Sync handles the complexity so you don't have to. We migrate projects of any size while preserving what matters most: your complete version history, metadata catalogues, platform logic, and audit action trails.
Our platform manages vendor-specific migrations like Autodesk’s BIM 360 to ACC, as well as cross-platform migrations between Aconex, ACC, ProjectWise, InEight, Asite, and others. The process is secure, automated, and designed to minimise disruption to your teams. Every document, model revision, and approval record transfers intact, giving you full traceability in your new environment.
Did you know? We can also migrate projects within the same vendor platform - from one instance to another. This is particularly valuable when transitioning project ownership from your delivery partner's environment to your own, or when consolidating multiple client instances into a single enterprise hub. Whether you're dealing with gigabytes or terabytes, legacy systems or modern platforms, your data remains under your control.
CDE Sync ensures your project data arrives complete, compliant, and ready to use without compromise. Your migration shouldn't risk the integrity of years of project delivery work, and with our automated, secure process, it won't. Ready to migrate without the risk? Contact us at info@utopiadigital.io to discuss your project requirements and transition requirements.
