Demo Migration

LitExtension is one of the two leading providers for Shopping Cart Migration Service in the world. We provide a possibility to migrate customers, orders, products, SEO URLs, even customer passwords and other data with all corresponding data to a desirable shopping cart. However, we know that no one wants to make a sight-unseen transaction. Therefore, at LitExtension, we provide Demo Migration so that our customers can check whether our service and migration tool works as they expected before making a purchase.
Demo is short for demonstration which aims to show how our tool works with limited number of items and the result after that. In other words, this functionality is actually a “reduced” version of full data migration.

Languages, Order Status and Customer Group will be matched together to be displayed correspondingly in the new store.
