Saves ton of time
by Simply·1 month ago
I’m using the Pro version and it saves tons of time migrating from Joomla to WordPress.
The support is also good. The plugin is straight forward, although you need to know how to lookup database users, password and sometime whitelist IP-adresses in the hostings firewall to migrate.
Great work and support

For the second time, I had to contact their support, and they’re unstopable. They always respond briefly and investigated the problem, bringing a solution. I recommend them 101%!
