// Atlas vs Ezekia
Ezekia is an independent, London-based CRM built exclusively for retained executive search, with 650+ clients, a 99.7% retention rate and commitment-free monthly terms. Its AI — Sidekick, Ask AI and free-text search — works over the assignment, candidate and client records the firm has kept. Atlas captures every call, meeting and note into Total Memory automatically, so the intelligence includes what was said and never typed.

Four stages, run by the Atlas team, with a parallel-run week before Recruiterflow is switched off. You get the dated implementation plan before any data moves.
Every Ezekia field, custom field, pipeline stage, saved search and report requirement is mapped to its Atlas equivalent. Nothing moves until you sign off the map.
You validate the staging workspace first. After sign-off, records are moved to production, indexed for search and reconnected to their files.
You validate a full copy in a sandbox against agreed record counts and spot checks. Corrections are made and re-run before production.
Both systems run side by side while your team gets comfortable with Atlas. Ezekia is switched off only when everything is validated and you’re ready.
