Content Migration
Content migration is always an important and sensitive part of a portal project, even more in case of technology change.
Fear of data loss or corruption can be a main barrier of technology change.
With the usage of MyCMX software the migration process will be safe and cost-effective.
Our solution
Migration software is a portlet application which can be installed to Liferay Portal platform.
All of the content of existing portals can be migrated to another portal without data loss.
