Migration from Virtuemart possible

Hi,
I have an existing webshop built with Virtuemart, but for some reason I have been looking for an alternative for a while. Biggest problem with Virtuemart is the presentation of different languages, a component called Joomfish has to be installed, kind of difficult to me, anyway I need my shop in three languages.
However in order to avoid building up a new shop from scratch, it would be great if there was a solution to migrate the existing one to a hikashop. Would that be possible?

Best wishes

Thanks for replying so quickly.
I guess priority would be : categories - products - customers - orders

I would love to have this too! I'd jump over to Hika in an instant. I'm wondering if CSV export (the component) would take the needed info from virtuemart and then it would just be a matter of putting that data into the correct import format for Hika?

I would like to know if there are already any good solution to migrate from Virtuemart to Hikashop as we have several projects that could migrate to your Excelent Platform.
Our major concern is Categories, Products and Products attributes

Regards

without a real migration tool virtuemart-->Hikashop it seems unrealistic to migrate a website full of products customers and orders

I understand

I shall try Hikashop with Joomla 1.6 for new customers

Do you have a list of suitable column headers for a csv sheet? I have my sheet exported from virtuemart and would like to import in to hikashop but I woudl like to know what the column headers should be. Any suggestions?

After playing with virtuemart for a while and now Hikashop it seems feasible to do it manually (well to me). it would take a bit of work but its possible although Im not sure about order history's ect.....

Hello

Another VM user here wanting to migrate.

I took a look at your component some months ago and It still seemed far away from VM.

Nowadays things have changed, VM have released a beta version (they call it stable ) that has already failed and your component seems the best e-commerce solution for Joomla.

Please make an effort in the requested VM - Hikashop migrator.

In my opinion: Users (customer data) + Orders is the first thing to consider.

If we could migrate these 2 things to your shop I'll migrate tomorrow to your component, I don't mind having to pay something for this to be done but please think VM is your biggest competitor and many of us would like to be able to migrate ASAP.

Regards

Thanks, thought this wasn't available yet

BTW Nicolas we are planning to migrate in one month or so to your system, we would try to do it ourselfs but if we have issues can we get a bit of support from your team with the payment of the business edition?

Regards

I am having a problem.. The attached file os from a live VM site and not sure where to go or what to do to rename the headers? For import into HikaShop businesss? Tried it as is, but it is just hanging and no errors reporting...so I stopped it.
