Yes. Export your Fulcrum records as CSV files, then import them into Mapalyze. Our drag-and-drop form builder makes it easy to recreate your data collection workflows in minutes.
Mapalyze goes further than Fulcrum with a true offline-first architecture. Data is stored locally first and synced automatically when connectivity returns — no data loss, no sync failures, even after days offline.
Mapalyze includes GeoJSON, Shapefile, and CSV export on every paid plan. With Fulcrum, GIS exports are often gated behind higher-tier enterprise plans.
