But Salesforce Classic to Lightning migration isn&#8217;t just a UI refresh. Lightning is faster, more intuitive, and unlocks modern features: flows, actions, components, and AI integration. For teams planning this transition, a structured approach through <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/salesforce\/migration-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Salesforce migration services<\/a> helps reduce risk and downtime.<\/p>\n<p>This guide walks you through the readiness checks, configuration gaps, and phased rollout so you can migrate without disruption.<\/p>\n<h2>Summary<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Lightning is faster, more mobile-friendly, and supports modern automation<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Readiness checks identify unsupported Classic customizations early<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Customization gaps must be rebuilt or eliminated before migration<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Phased rollout by department reduces adoption friction<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Post-migration optimization drives sustained value<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Why Migrate from Salesforce Classic to Lightning?<\/h2>\n<h3>Speed and Performance<\/h3>\n<p>Lightning pages load 2\u20133x faster than Classic. Mobile users see responsive design, not desktop layouts squeezed to small screens.<\/p>\n<h3>Modern Automation<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1137\" data-end=\"1341\">Flows (visual workflows) replace Process Builder and Workflow Rules. These automation capabilities become even more effective when supported by clean and structured <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/salesforce-data-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Salesforce data management<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Flows are more powerful and intuitive. Lightning Actions let teams take action from anywhere.<\/p>\n<h3>AI and Advanced Features<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"787\" data-end=\"1014\">Einstein (predictive scoring, recommendation engines) and Agentforce (AI agents) only work in Lightning. Learn more about how <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/salesforce-einstein-ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Salesforce Einstein AI<\/a> supports predictive insights and automation across your workflows. You can&#8217;t access these capabilities in Classic.<\/p>\n<h3>User Experience<\/h3>\n<p>Lightning&#8217;s design is clean, modern, mobile-first. Users expect this experience. Classic feels dated. Better UX drives adoption and productivity.<\/p>\n<h3>Future-Proofing<\/h3>\n<p>Salesforce stopped supporting Classic in 2024. You&#8217;re on borrowed time. Migrating now prevents forced migration later.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Salesforce Classic to Lightning Migration Challenges<\/h2>\n<h3>Unsupported Customizations<\/h3>\n<p>Some Classic customizations don&#8217;t work in Lightning: certain Visualforce pages, custom styles, old browser-specific hacks. Readiness checks identify these upfront. You must rebuild or eliminate them.<\/p>\n<h3>Page Layout Complexity<\/h3>\n<p>Classic page layouts don&#8217;t translate directly to Lightning. Fields organized in columns in Classic need spatial reorganization. Lightning Layouts are simpler, which is good, but require rethinking.<\/p>\n<h3>Integration Breakage<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2596\" data-end=\"2843\">Visualforce pages, custom buttons, and APIs that worked in Classic sometimes break in Lightning. Similar integration challenges are often seen in <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/zendesk-to-salesforce-migration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zendesk to Salesforce migration<\/a>, especially when syncing support data with CRM workflows.<\/p>\n<h3>User Resistance<\/h3>\n<p>Some users prefer Classic&#8217;s familiar interface. Education and hands-on training reduce resistance, but plan for adoption friction.<\/p>\n<h2>Step-by-Step: Salesforce Classic to Lightning Migration<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Run Lightning Readiness Check<\/h3>\n<p>Salesforce provides a Lightning Readiness Report. Run it in your org. It identifies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Unsupported customizations<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Visualforce pages that won&#8217;t render in Lightning<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Custom buttons and links that need rebuilding<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Missing field-level security configuration<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Themes and custom CSS that won&#8217;t work<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This report is your roadmap. Prioritize fixing critical issues.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Identify Gaps and Build Migration Plan<\/h3>\n<p>Categorize findings:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Critical<\/b>: Blocks functionality (e.g., unsupported Visualforce pages)<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>High<\/b>: Impacts workflows (e.g., custom buttons)<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Medium<\/b>: Nice-to-have (e.g., custom themes)<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Low<\/b>: Cosmetic (e.g., unused CSS)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Fix critical and high-impact gaps before rollout. Medium and low can follow.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Customize and Optimize for Lightning<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1779\" data-end=\"2035\">Rebuild Visualforce pages as Lightning components. Recreate custom buttons as Lightning actions. This process is similar to the transformations required in <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/dynamics-to-salesforce-migration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dynamics to Salesforce migration<\/a>, where legacy logic must be restructured for compatibility.<\/p>\n<p>Redesign page layouts for Lightning. This phase takes 2\u20134 weeks, depending on complexity.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Test Migration in Sandbox<\/h3>\n<p>Migrate a sandbox org to Lightning. Involve business users in testing.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2171\" data-end=\"2442\">Have them perform key workflows: opportunity creation, approval routing, and reporting. These validation steps are also critical in projects like <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/hubspot-to-salesforce-migration-easy-step-by-step-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HubSpot to Salesforce migration<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/migrate-zoho-to-salesforce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zoho to Salesforce migration<\/a>, where data and workflows must align post-migration.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5: Train Users and Admins<\/h3>\n<p>Create documentation: keyboard shortcuts, feature locations, workflow changes. Hold training sessions. Create help videos. Identify power users\u2014they become champions who help peers.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 6: Roll Out in Phases<\/h3>\n<p>Don&#8217;t flip all users to Lightning at once. Instead:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Week 1<\/b>: Enable for admins and power users. Gather feedback.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Week 2<\/b>: Enable for early adopters (maybe 20% of users). Monitor closely.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Week 3<\/b>: Expand to a broader user base (another 30%).<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Week 4<\/b>: Full rollout to remaining users.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p data-start=\"2990\" data-end=\"3195\">This phased approach reduces support burden and lets you fix issues before they affect everyone. A structured <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/salesforce\/implementation-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Salesforce implementation service<\/a> can further streamline rollout and user adoption.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 7: Monitor, Optimize, and Improve<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3327\" data-end=\"3512\">Monitor adoption metrics: Are users logging in? Using key features? Ongoing support from a <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/salesforce\/managed-service-provider\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Salesforce managed service provider<\/a> ensures continuous optimization after go-live.<\/p>\n<p>Gather feedback. Address pain points. Optimize page layouts based on usage. Celebrate wins\u2014share early success stories to build momentum.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Migrate from Salesforce Classic to Lightning?<\/h2>\n<p>Classic was good in 2010. Lightning is good today.

The main challenge is unsupported customizations. Readiness checks identify issues early. Phased rollout reduces adoption friction.<\/p>\n<h3>How Long Does It Take to Migrate to Salesforce Lightning?<\/h3>\n<p>8\u201315 weeks typical for mid-market orgs. Small, simple: 4\u20136 weeks. Large, complex: 20+ weeks.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Salesforce Classic and Lightning Be Used at the Same Time?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. You can disable Lightning for specific users. This lets users test Lightning while keeping Classic as a safety net.<\/p>\n<h3>Will I Lose Any Data During the Lightning Migration?<\/h3>\n<p>No. Lightning is a UI layer\u2014your data doesn&#8217;t change. All data, records, configurations remain intact.<\/p>\n<h3>What Are the Main Challenges of Migrating to Lightning?<\/h3>\n<p>Unsupported customizations (Visualforce pages, custom buttons), page layout redesign, user resistance, integration testing. Readiness checks catch these early.<\/p>\n<h3>What Does a Salesforce Lightning Migration Cost?<\/h3>\n<p>Small: $50K\u2013$150K. Mid-market: $100K\u2013$300K. Large: $250K\u2013$500K+. Most is consulting and customization rebuild.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I Handle the Migration In-House or Hire Experts?<\/h3>\n<p>Depends on customization complexity. Simple orgs can migrate internally (2\u20133 admins, 8 weeks). Complex orgs benefit from partners who compress timelines 25\u201330%.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-703297a7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"703297a7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-4de89921\" data-id=\"4de89921\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4076a5ec elementor-author-box--layout-image-left elementor-author-box--align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-author-box\" data-id=\"4076a5ec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"author-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"elementor-author-box__avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/crm.folio3.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/hm-pic.webp\" alt=\"Picture of Hasan Mustafa\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-author-box__name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHasan Mustafa\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 600; colo: #444;\">Engineering Manager Salesforce at Folio3<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nHasan Mustafa delivers tailored Salesforce solutions to meet clients'  specific requirements, overseeing the implementation of scenarios aligned with their needs.
