Reseller with free migrations from non-cPanel
I've got a contact with a shared hosting package loaded up with multiple websites belonging to different people. he's now coming to understand that reseller hosting would be more appropriate.
Unfortunately, the shared host isn't running on cPanel. I think it might be an adulterated Plesk. Any resellers out there (not expecting low end) that will do the migration if it's not cPanel?
Comments
We provide free migration for non cpanel and cpanel.
This will be really hard as plesk not uses mysql as I know.
How you will convert a windows sql into a linux one?
I can only migrate Plesk Linux.
You mean you want to buy a cPanel reseller account from a company that will do non-cPanel migrations for you for free?
Give that man a cigar. That's exactly what I'm looking for. Not at LEB prices, as explained.
Actually, I just had a cigar.
We sometimes do that for our resellers. But avoid it. We avoid it so much that we don't even have a public reseller offering on our website. We just pass a PDF if someone insists to get a reseller account. At least now we limit the number of cPanel accounts in reseller packages.
Historically, we just don't make money on servers with resellers having "unlimited cpanel accouts". They're not profitable, not even without manual migrations.
Maybe makes sense to get a good reseller provider and pay separately someone for the non-cPanel manual migrations?
BTW, cPanel support used to do that for free for their NOC partners, not sure if that's still the case.
Yeah. I've just explained to my contact that if the migration can't be automated, there's too much work in it to make it an attractive proposition for most providers.
How many sites are we talking about here? Are they all PHP/MySQL based sites? Custom or some known CMS( Magento, wordpress, presta etc)?
We do manually migrate non-cPanel shared accounts tough (when bought as individual shared hosting services).
About 15 WP sites, most with email inboxes
You could always use updraftplus for wp backup/migration which will save you a great deal of time.Then download all emails for Backup, recreate on the new host and restore (if possible).
I can offer migration service for websites. Not sure about emails.
That would have been my other suggestion. Hire someone to migrate the websites.
Thanks for the replies folks. The automated cPanel to cPanel migration tools have set my expectations high. I was hoping that a stable Plesk to cPanel solution existed. I'm well able to do the manual migrations for the contact - I just don't want to put the work in!
We will help you to migrate the domains
