  4. 4. Select Data Entities for Migration

    Choose precisely which data entities you want to transfer from your source CSV to the target. Options typically include products, categories, customers, and orders. You can select all or specific entities based on your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions about CSV to CSV Migration

How long does a CSV to CSV migration take?

A free demo migration typically takes 15-30 minutes. The duration of a full CSV to CSV migration depends on the volume of data in your files and the complexity of your mapping.

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.
