    Once both platforms are connected, you'll be presented with a list of data entities available for migration. Choose exactly what you want to transfer, such as products, customers, orders, categories, and more. You can select all or pick specific data types.

  4. Configure Additional Migration Options

    Enhance your migration with a range of additional options. These can include preserving SEO URLs, migrating images within descriptions, maintaining customer and order IDs, and more. Select the options that best suit your business needs.

This app performs greatly

This app performs greatly. The service is very reliable and the support is superb. The service is quite costly for me but in the end, it's worth its money. There is also an automated shopping cart migration and I'm very happy about that! I'm really satisfied.
