    This is my first use of Cart2Cart migration process and this company is awesome! My company managed lots of migration manually before trying C2C and actually we love them. Support is the best ever (thank all!) and service is A +++.

    Amazing level of patience and professionalism from Cart2Cart working with our team to perform a very difficult import for a client that has been start and stop for over 2 years!! Their team gets back to questions with technical fixes within 24 hours in most cases and we are finally wrapping it up! Thank you for all you’ve done to help get this project to completion.

    Absolute BEST! Very inexpensive (was quoted $1500 from another design company, compared to only $140), lightning fast speed with their responses, knowledgeable, and of course saved me a ton of quality time I don’t have. Will be using them again for an additional website.

    Used Cart2Cart to migrate https://www.tesland.com. Ideal saves you a ton of time. Even have the option to do it multiple times so you can set up the new site with the correct data in it. And then before you go live with the new site, you can import the latest data again.

    Miva Merchant 9 Monthly Pulse: The Stability Mandate in an Unstable Market

    In a month dominated by headlines of generative AI and the ever-fragmenting composable commerce landscape, Miva has opted for a different narrative. The platform's recent trajectory is not one of disruptive pivots but of deliberate, methodical reinforcement. This month's pulse reveals a clear strategy: doubling down on the core tenets of stability, security, and sophisticated B2B functionality that have long defined its value proposition. For business leaders prioritizing long-term reliability over fleeting trends, Miva's recent updates signal a reassuring commitment to its mission-critical role.

    Consolidating its Enterprise Niche

    While Miva's overall market share remains steady within its niche, our analysis indicates a strengthening foothold among mid-market enterprises with complex catalogs and fulfillment logic. Recent data suggests Miva is capturing a notable share of migrations from legacy platforms like Magento 1 and custom-built systems, particularly in the $20M to $150M GMV range. This is not about explosive growth but strategic capture. It demonstrates that Miva's focus on a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and managed infrastructure is resonating with businesses seeking an escape from the high maintenance costs and security burdens of self-hosted solutions.

    Core Infrastructure and Performance Fortification

    The latest point release, Version 10.08.02, eschewed flashy front-end features in favor of critical backend optimizations. The primary focus was on refining the platform's asynchronous task processing engine. For merchants, this translates directly into faster, more reliable execution of resource-intensive operations like bulk product imports and order data exports. The "so what?" here is a direct impact on operational efficiency. By ensuring these vital back-office tasks do not degrade storefront performance, Miva allows high-volume businesses to operate smoothly even during peak processing periods, protecting the customer experience and conversion rates.

    Expanding the Integration Fabric for Complex Operations

    This month saw the quiet launch of new REST API endpoints specifically for managing complex inventory and customer-specific pricing rules. While not a headline feature for the masses, this is a profoundly significant update for Miva's target clientele. These enhancements are purpose-built to facilitate deeper, more robust integrations with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Product Information Management (PIM) systems. This move further solidifies Miva as a platform that doesn't just coexist with a business's central nervous system but integrates into it, reducing data silos and manual reconciliation errors for complex B2B and D2C operations.

    Flagship Feature: Advanced Purchase Order Management

    The most significant user-facing update is the rollout of a native, highly configurable Purchase Order (PO) Management module. This feature moves beyond simple "pay by PO" functionality and into a true B2B workflow tool. Merchants can now define rules for PO approval, set credit limits per customer group, and manage the entire PO lifecycle from submission to invoicing directly within the Miva admin. This solves a major pain point for manufacturers and distributors, allowing them to digitize a traditionally offline sales process and provide their B2B clients with a self-service experience on par with consumer e-commerce.

    A Proactive Stance on Security and Compliance

    Reinforcing its commitment to enterprise-grade security, Miva announced the completion of its platform-wide audit for PCI DSS 4.0 compliance, well ahead of the 2025 deadline. More strategically, the company has deployed an enhanced set of Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules tuned specifically to mitigate emerging threats targeting e-commerce platforms. For a CEO or CTO, this update is about risk mitigation. It signals that Miva is moving from a reactive to a proactive security posture, safeguarding not just payment data but the entire commerce application, thereby protecting revenue and brand reputation.

    Streamlining Global Commerce Operations

    While not a major overhaul, Miva has deepened its integration with several key global payment and logistics partners. The platform now offers enhanced support for Adyen's international payment methods and expanded real-time duty and tax calculations via its Zonos partnership. This focus on backend plumbing for cross-border trade is critical. It enables merchants to expand into new markets with greater confidence, knowing that the complexities of localized payments and landed cost calculations are handled reliably, reducing cart abandonment and improving international conversion rates.

    Notable Migration: The Case for 'All-Spec Industries'

    A prime example of Miva's strategic appeal is the recent launch of All-Spec Industries, a major distributor of electronic assembly equipment, on the platform. Migrating from a heavily customized, aging proprietary system, All-Spec likely chose Miva for three core reasons. First, its ability to handle a catalog of over 70,000 SKUs with highly complex, tiered pricing for different business accounts. Second, the platform's renowned stability and managed SaaS environment promised a significant reduction in IT overhead. Finally, the new PO Management and API capabilities align perfectly with their need to integrate deeply with their existing ERP. This migration is a textbook case of a business choosing predictable performance and robust B2B functionality over the unpredictable nature of custom or open-source platforms.
