Your OpenCart to Volusion Migration in Detail

Cart2Cart simplifies your store migration into a few easy steps:

  1. Connect Your Source OpenCart Store

    Begin by selecting OpenCart as your Source Cart and providing its URL. You can connect your OpenCart store using the Cart2Cart Bridge (via FTP/SFTP upload or automatic upload with admin credentials) or by manually uploading a ZIP archive of the bridge files through your admin section. This establishes a secure link for data extraction.

It displays 'OpenCart' selected as the source store type, an input field for the OpenCart Admin URL, and the 'Provide Store Admin Access for Auto Upload' connection method selected with fields for Admin Login and Admin Password. The 'Next Step' button is highlighted in green.

  2. Connect Your Target Volusion Store

    Next, choose Volusion as your Target Cart and enter its URL. For Volusion, the connection method typically involves a File Download. Cart2Cart will prepare your data for import, and you'll manage the final upload process to your Volusion store.

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.
