Enhance Your Migration with Extra Features

Customize your data transfer with these platform-specific additional options:

  • Clear current data on Target Store: Wipe existing data on Volusion before the final import to ensure a clean slate.
  • Preserve Category IDs: Maintain the same category structure and IDs on your new store for SEO and internal tracking.
  • Preserve product image URLs: Ensure your image paths remain consistent post-migration to avoid broken links.
  • Change products quantity to 100: Automatically set out-of-stock items from GoDaddy to a quantity of 100 on Volusion to keep them visible on your storefront.

How long does the GoDaddy to Volusion migration take?

The duration depends on the volume of data (products, customers, and orders) being transferred. Most small to medium stores are completed within a few hours, while very large databases may take longer.

Will my GoDaddy store go offline during the transfer?

No. Your source GoDaddy store remains 100% online and available for customers. Cart2Cart only reads the data from your source; it does not interfere with your store's operations or performance.

Can I test the migration before committing to a full transfer?

Yes, Cart2Cart offers a Free Demo migration. You can transfer a small subset of data to your Volusion store to see how it looks and functions before purchasing a full migration package.

What happens if I encounter an issue during migration?

Cart2Cart provides professional technical support and various Migration Insurance plans. If any issues occur, our engineers are available to assist, and insurance allows you to restart the migration if needed.

Are my customer passwords migrated?

Due to the encrypted nature of passwords on different platforms, direct password migration is generally not supported for this pair. Customers will typically need to use the "Forgot Password" feature on Volusion to set a new one.

Can I migrate my SEO URLs to Volusion?

Yes, by selecting the appropriate additional options in the wizard, you can preserve your SEO structure to help maintain your search engine rankings during the transition.

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.
