I was skeptical at first, but now I’m using Cart2Cart again! Cart2Cart saved us a lot of time by aiding in the migration of our client, Tool Accessory Depot from Magento to BigCommerce. We are now in the process of moving another clients store from OSCommerce to 3DCart.

Cart2Cart support was extremely helpful, and was diligent in making sure the migration completed correctly, as they said it would.
