Your Volusion to osCommerce Migration Journey

Migrating your store with Cart2Cart is a straightforward process, designed for efficiency and accuracy. Here’s a step-by-step guide to moving your data from Volusion to osCommerce:

  1. Connect Your Source Volusion Store

    Begin by selecting "Volusion" as your Source Cart. You will then need to provide your Volusion store's URL and connect using the File Upload method. This involves exporting your data from Volusion and uploading the files to Cart2Cart.

  2. Connect Your Target osCommerce Store

    Next, choose "osCommerce" as your Target Cart. Provide your osCommerce store's URL and establish a connection using the Cart2Cart Bridge (FTP Upload) method. This involves downloading the bridge files from Cart2Cart, uploading them to your osCommerce root directory via FTP/SFTP, and then verifying the connection.

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.
