Migration Insurance vs Recent Data Migration - what’s the difference?

Understanding Cart2Cart's Data Migration Insurance vs. Recent Data Migration Services

In addition to providing seamless data migration services, Cart2Cart offers extra services to ensure a smooth, secure, and enhanced transition. Two particularly useful options are Migration Insurance and Recent Data Migration. Let's explore the key differences between these valuable services.

Let's start with short descriptions. Migration Insurance allows you to Remigrate - to completely restart your existing Full Migration - a certain amount of times during a certain period, depending on which plan you’ve chosen. Remigration means clearing all the entities from your target store and transferring data from the source cart to it, all over again.

Recent Data Migration, on the other hand, permits you to transfer new entities exclusively to your target store after a Full Migration is complete. It's significantly faster than Remigration (offered within Migration Insurance) and doesn't affect the data that has already been moved.

Here's a detailed comparison of Recent Data Migration and Migration Insurance:

Provided Services Migration Insurance Recent Data Migration
Type of Migration

Restart the same migration from the very beginning

Conditions Full migration is done but needs grand modifications Full migration was successfully completed
Reasons

Migration issues evolved due to:

  • Source or target shopping cart wasn’t set up properly
  • Some fields are missing
  • Data was corrupted with a 3rd party module

New entities appeared on your source store after the migration

Possibilities

Ability to transfer all data, as in a completely new migration

You can only transfer entities you’ve moved during the initial switch

Both services are easily accessible! Find the relevant migration in your account's migration list and click the appropriate button. The Recent Data Migration button will appear automatically after the full transfer is completed. Similarly, the Restart Migration button will be visible if you purchased a Migration Insurance Plan beforehand.
