At LitExtension, besides the fundamental packages, we also provide a wide range of additional migration services to meet the unique needs of every merchant. Since we also have some additional options, let’s differentiate:
- Additional Options: These are enhancements to streamline standard migrations, such as clearing data on the target store, preserving original IDs, or setting up 301 redirects. These options make migrations smoother and more efficient.
- Additional Migration Services: These are for more complex needs, such as migrating data from files (CSV, Excel, XML), handling database migrations, or using API data migration. These services are perfect for businesses needing custom-made solutions.
On this page, let’s dive into all of LitExtension Additional Migration Services.
1. Files Migration Service
Our Files Migration Service simplifies the transfer of data from formats like CSV, Excel, and XML to a new eCommerce platform. This solution is especially useful if your previous store has crashed, leaving only file backups, or if platform restrictions limit migration to file imports. It’s also ideal for businesses that prefer not to grant third-party access to their database.
Here’s how LitExtension performs your file migration:
- We start by talking with you to fully understand your needs and create a personalized migration plan.
- Next, we clean and map your data, then run a demo so you can see the results and approve everything.
- After that, we will complete the full file migration, closely monitoring the process to ensure everything runs smoothly.
- Finally, our QA team tests everything to ensure your data is accurate and your new store works perfectly.
Cost: Our pricing depends on data volume and your special requirements. We’ll provide you with a custom quote that fits your project.

It’s also suited for cases where you want to restrict external access or face hosting provider limitations that affect data transfer methods

5. Multi-threaded Migration
Multi-threaded Migration is a high-performance service designed to make data transfers faster and more efficient. With our Multi-threaded Migration Service, your data is moved up to 10 times faster, providing a smooth, accurate transition to your new platform with minimal downtime and guaranteed data safety.
But how does Multi-threaded migration compare to the Normal migration or the Automated one? Let’s make a comparison:
Our multithreaded migration service streamlines your data transfer in 5 efficient phases:
- First, we analyze and prepare your data for optimal multithreaded migration.
- Then, we begin with a demo migration of 1,000 products and customers for your review. Once approved, we fully utilize multithreading to transfer all product and customer data simultaneously.
- Next, we’ll migrate your orders, again starting with a demo. After that, we will create multiple threads to migrate all orders, linking them correctly with products and customers.
- Then, we handle any remaining data types, ensuring they are seamlessly transferred for a complete migration.
- Finally, our quality assurance team thoroughly checks your data to guarantee everything has been accurately transferred.
Cost: The cost for the Multi-threaded Migration Service is set at 130% of the standard migration price based on the number of entities in the All-in-One migration service.
Note: This service is recommended for data migrations exceeding 100,000 entities, including products, customers, and orders.
