What should I know about migration of product variants to WooCommerce?

Limitations of Product Variant Migration to WooCommerce

Migrating product variants to WooCommerce using data migration services has certain limitations due to the platform's architecture. Specifically, if a variable product has more than 1000 combinations during the WooCommerce import process, Cart2Cart will migrate the product as a simple product and skip all related options. This is to ensure the stability and performance of your WooCommerce store after the data migration.

Alternative: Migrate Product Options to WooCommerce Using Add-Ons

As an alternative to migrating product variants directly, you can migrate your product options to WooCommerce Add-Ons plugin. To set up this type of data migration, simply install and activate the plugin within your WooCommerce environment. Cart2Cart's data migration services can then transfer your product options to this plugin.

Important: When migrating to the Add-Ons plugin, your products will only have options in your admin section, and not variants. Due to technical constraints, it's not possible to migrate both product variants and options to WooCommerce simultaneously. You must choose between migrating WooCommerce product options or variants when using data migration services, but not both.
