Should I use an automated tool or hire an expert for GSI Commerce to VirtueMart migration?

Which data entities can be migrated from GSI Commerce to VirtueMart?

Key data like products, customers, orders, and reviews are transferable to VirtueMart. Since GSI Commerce is not a standard platform in our list, data export typically involves CSV files, which are then imported to VirtueMart via its Connection Bridge.

I had used Cart2Cart 3 years ago for a migration from OSCommerce to Joomla/Virtuemart. I struggled with Virtuemart for 3 years and am sick of it. So remembering the good job they did 3 years ago, I had them migrate my data from VirtueMart to WooCommerce. Everything went smoothly except my photos didn’t get transferred correctly. I emailed them and gave them FTP access and they got everything fixed right up. I think they went out of their way to get my stuff up and going. I will use them again when I get sick of WooCommerce unless it works like it is supposed to

You were wonderful. Very helpful. You did the demo migration and now are doing the full migration. This is saving days of work on my part in moving the data in VirtueMart to the the new version. I have other clients that will be using VirtueMart and we will need your service for them. I will mention your service in the Joomla and VirtueMart forums.
