Your Step-by-Step Migration from CSV to Volusion
Migrating your store data to Volusion using a CSV file is a straightforward process with Cart2Cart. Follow these simple steps to ensure a successful transfer:
-
Connect Your Source Store (CSV File)
Begin by selecting 'CSV File' as your Source Cart in the Cart2Cart Migration Wizard. You will then be prompted to upload your CSV data files directly to our system. Our intelligent parser will analyze your file structure, preparing your data for the next steps.
-
Connect Your Target Store (Volusion)
Next, choose 'Volusion' as your Target Cart. Since Volusion supports data import via files, Cart2Cart will process your migration and provide you with downloadable files optimized for Volusion's import functionality. You won't need to provide direct access credentials for Volusion at this stage, as you will manually import the generated files later.
-
Select Data Entities for Migration
On the 'Entities Selection' page, you'll see a list of all supported data entities that can be migrated from your CSV file to Volusion. Choose the specific data types you wish to transfer, such as products, customers, orders, and more. You can also review how individual fields will be mapped.
-
Configure Additional Migration Options
Enhance your migration with various additional options. These features allow you to fine-tune the data transfer, such as preserving product image URLs, clearing existing data on your target store, or adjusting product quantities. Select the options that best suit your needs for a tailored migration.
-
Run Demo & Full Migration
We highly recommend running a free Demo Migration first. This allows you to transfer a small subset of your data to a test Volusion environment (or your own store) to verify the results. Once satisfied, proceed with the Full Migration. Cart2Cart will process your complete data and provide you with files ready for import into your Volusion store.
What Data Can Be Migrated from CSV to Volusion?
Cart2Cart supports the migration of a comprehensive range of entities from your CSV file to your new Volusion store. This ensures that your new store is fully populated with all the necessary information.
- Products: Including product details, images, descriptions, and more.
- Product Categories: Maintain your store's organizational structure.
- Customers: Transfer customer accounts and associated data.

How long does a CSV to Volusion migration take?
The duration of your migration largely depends on the volume of data in your CSV file. A free Demo Migration, which transfers a limited set of data, typically takes just a few minutes. A Full Migration can vary, but Cart2Cart's automated process is optimized for speed and efficiency, handling large datasets much faster than manual methods.
Will my store experience downtime during the migration?
No, Cart2Cart performs the migration on a copy of your data. Your existing CSV-based data source remains untouched and fully operational throughout the process. For Volusion, Cart2Cart will generate files for you to download and manually import, allowing you to control the import timing and minimize any potential downtime on your live Volusion store.
What data can I migrate from CSV to Volusion?
You can migrate a comprehensive range of entities, including Products, Product Categories, Customers, Orders, Reviews, Manufacturers, Coupons, Gift Cards, Customer Groups, Order Statuses, Stores, and Taxes. Our wizard allows you to select precisely which entities you wish to transfer.
Is there a way to test the migration before committing to a full transfer?
Absolutely! Cart2Cart offers a free Demo Migration. This allows you to transfer a limited number of entities from your CSV file to a test Volusion environment (or your own Volusion store). You can then thoroughly review the migrated data and ensure everything works as expected before proceeding with a full, paid migration.
What if I need assistance during the migration process?
Cart2Cart provides comprehensive support to ensure a smooth migration. Our dedicated support team is available to assist you with any questions or issues you might encounter. For complex migrations or those requiring special customizations, we also offer various Data Migration Service Packages (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate) with a dedicated account manager and technical engineers.
Can I preserve my product image URLs during the migration?
Yes, Cart2Cart offers an additional option to "Preserve product image URLs". Selecting this feature ensures that the links to your product images are correctly transferred and maintained on your new Volusion store, preventing broken image links.
What happens to my existing data on Volusion if I run a full migration?
You have the option to "Clear current data on Target Store before Migration." If you select this, all existing data on your Volusion store (specifically for the entities you choose to migrate) will be removed before the new data from your CSV file is imported. This is often recommended for a clean and conflict-free migration.
What are the connection methods for CSV and Volusion?
For your CSV source, you will upload your data file directly to the Cart2Cart migration wizard. For Volusion as the target, Cart2Cart will process your data and provide you with optimized files to download. You will then manually import these files into your Volusion store's administration panel.

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.
