Migration Module -vs- Manual Migration? Issues / Pointers!

[Billy]

I want to try and migrate my prestashop 1.6.1.x site again to TB. I am specifically looking for some pointers on my very old website. You see this website of mine was built around 2011 with version 1.2.x so yes it's been around a long time.

So some questions...

Manual migration of my data meaning. Export / import would be the correct term i believe. Does TB have modules that can export all my data from PS then import that data TB?

Migration module of my 1.6.1.x shop to TB. What would be the best way to prep my very very very old but now 1.6 site? This process has failed over and over in the past. As you can see by looking back thru my limited posts. It hasn't went well for me so to speak. What would you do to prep a clone of my website installed in a sub domain or even a main domain on another URL?

 

Thanks

Standard migration method is to upgrade this shop to PrestaShop 1.6.1 using PrestaShop updates, then migrating it to thirty bees.

If this doesn't work out, there are modules and services which don't migrate the shop software, but copy products, customers, orders and all this stuff from an old to a new shop. For example these:
