In case you want to dig deep into a complete guide on switching from Magento to BigCommerce, please look at our comprehensive Magento to BigCommerce migration guide here! Now, let’s head straight to 3 critical steps of the Magento to BigCommerce migration with LitExtension.
Step 1: Enter Source Cart and Target Cart information
Now that you have a new LitExtension account, you can create your new Magento to BigCommerce migration by clicking on the “Create New Migration” button. On the migration setup page, you need to enter the Magento Source Store information, including your store URL. Make sure you download and install the connector into your Source Cart to retrieve the data from the old store.
Have trouble with any steps? You can always check out the whole process of Magento to BigCommerce migration in this comprehensive tutorial video. Next, moving to the Target Cart, choose BigCommerce from the drop-down list. Then enter your store URL. For this platform, you also need to provide us with your API Path, API token, and Client ID/Username.
Important: In your Advanced Settings > Order Notifications, make sure you DO NOT tick any options in the box “Email customers when”. This will prevent the App from sending notification emails to customers during migration.
Step 2: Select entities and additional options
This site asks you to choose entities that you want to convert Magento to BigCommerce. LitExtension allows you to transfer all of the important data including products, customers data, orders, and so on. You can select either all of them together or some certain data.
You can extend your migration potential with Additional Options such as preserving product IDs on Target Store, and Strip HTML Tags from the category. You can also match Languages, Order Status, and Customer Group together to display consistently in the BigCommerce store.
Step 3: Start Magento to BigCommerce migration
LitExtension highly recommends you try a demo first to see the way the system operates. Or else, you can run full Magento to BigCommerce migration immediately.
- To try Demo: Demo migration mode limits the number of 20 entities. The protocol is totally similar to the actual migration. After choosing entities and extra options, simply click “Start Free Demo Migration” to prerun.
During Demo migration, you can see the data transfer status. Test transfer will take about 20 minutes, depending on the number of entities you migrate. You can turn the site off during the process and sip some coffee. You will get a notification email for the result as soon as it’s complete.
- To perform Full Migration: You can “Skip Demo Migration” to perform full Magento to BigCommerce migration right away. Similar to the Demo version, once the migration starts, it will run on the server implicitly and only announce once the process is done.
