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.

This was the only service that worked for X-Cart5 to PrestaShop migration. Other paid service (even a paid “pro” module on PrestaShop store) revealed completely useless. With Cart2Cart I was able to test migration and quickly see any issue on the target shop. I recommend it

We migrated a large x-cart site to shopify. This was the only app that could help us migrate hundreds of thousands of orders and customers. They were extremely knowledgeable and responsive. They answered my questions quickly and accurately. The initial migration went smoothly with no errors. The final migration at launch (to bring in the newest orders and customers) went equally as well. Data security was also handled to my satisfaction. Definitely would recommend this app.

Recently used this service to migrate a customer list from X-Cart store to new WordPress website using Woocommerce. The free demo was a great feature. Support has been very impressive. The migration itself took about 3 minutes with perfect results. I would highly recommend this service.

FRANK BEFERA

I have been working to migrate thousands of orders from an old X-Cart installation (v4) to a new WooCommerce installation and happened upon Cart2Cart. I was skeptical at first as X-Cart is not an easy database to navigate and I have had mixed results with other imports or exports over the years. But, I ran the Cart2Cart test import and BAM! – Perfect. This was the best $200 I ever spent. Thanks guys for the great software and customer support.
