Vernon Systems can help you import your data into eHive. We’ve worked with many types of collections and databases.
You can either prepare your data yourself or get assistance from us to customise the import process.
There are three options for importing data to eHive:
Option 1: Use the eHive Import Spreadsheet
Our eHive Import Spreadsheet can be used to create object records in your eHive account in bulk. Just download the Spreadsheet and enter your data into the appropriate columns. The completed spreadsheet and any images you’d like to include can be sent to us by email, Dropbox or post. We continue to extend the spreadsheet to include more automated checking of the data. The spreadsheet provides an important stepping stone between your current data format and eHive.
Once we’ve reviewed your data we will provide a fixed quote for the import at our hourly rate of $US170 / £GBP130/ $NZ210 / $AU210. Please contact us for more information.

Option 2: Custom Import Spreadsheet
If the fields in the standard eHive Import Spreadsheet do not meet your needs, we can custom-build an import spreadsheet for you. The charges for this service are as follows:
- $US 170 per hour to design and build spreadsheet
- $US 170 per hour to perform the import.
Please contact us if you’re interested in a Custom Import Spreadsheet.
Option 3: Data Conversion
The team at Vernon Systems can convert data from your existing database to eHive. For example, we have created a conversion from Modes XML format to our eHive import format. There is a charge for this conversion service. Please contact us for more information.
