Volusion to BigCommerce Migration

No longer fit with Volusion? Looking to migrate your online store to BigCommerce? Look no further! LitExtension Volusion to BigCommerce migration service will seamlessly transfer your OpenCart store to the BigCommerce platform, ensuring that all your data is preserved and your store is up and running in no time. 

The A-Z Volusion to BigCommerce migration process includes these below steps:

• Step 1: Backup database of the Volusion store
• Step 2: Set up a new BigCommerce store
• Step 3: Set up Source and Target Cart
• Step 4: Select entities to migrate
• Step 5: Perform full migration from Volusion to BigCommerce
• Step 6: Follow a go-live checklist for BigCommerce stores after data migration 

 Now, let’s head straight to 3 critical steps of the Volusion to BigCommerce migration with LitExtension. 

Step1. Enter source cart and target cart information

In the migration setup page, you need to enter the Volusion source store information.

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 select any options in the box “Email customers when”. This will prevent the App from sending emails to customers during migration.

Step2. Select entities and additional options

This is where you choose entities that you want to migrate from Volusion to BigCommerce. LitExtension allows you to transfer all of the important data, including products, customers, orders, and so on. You can select either all of them together or some certain data.

LitExtension also provides Additional Options here to extend your migration potentials, such as preserving product IDs on Target store, Strip HTML from category, product names. You can also match Languages, Order Status, and Customer Group together to display consistently in the BigCommerce store.

Step3. Perform migration

We highly recommend you try a demo first to see how our system works. Or else, you can run full migration right away.

• To try Demo: Start your demo migration with a limited number of entities. You will see the same actions as the actual migration. After choosing entities and extra options, simply click “Start Free Demo Migration” to start migrating.
