To Invision Community (IPS Community Suite) Conversion and Migration Services Pricing

Migration to Invision Community, also known as IPS Community Suite or Invision Power Board)

Why have us handle your forum migration?

Experience

With numerous conversions from other forums to Invision Community, and we have the experience to make the conversion as smooth as possible, and know how to solve common problems. We've developed custom migration tools to assist with the migration process. From migrations with a few hundred posts all the way up to ~50 million posts, and media galleries with over 3 million images, we've done it!

Speed
We have custom incremental importers for most major forum software which can decrease downtime from hours or days to minutes. We've also applied optimizations to non-incremental importers as well, to speed up the initial import for your testing environment. Our importer does a differential import which only brings in what has changed in the source forum since the initial import.

Most imports we can handle on your server. However, if you have space or CPU load limitations, we can stage them on one of our servers. For those, we have dedicated custom-built servers with hardware and software optimized for high volume "write" loads typically encountered by forum and CMS migrations. Our servers can typically handle migrations at twice the speed of even most NVMe SSD based servers typically offered by hosting companies.

Migration Prices From Another Forum
These prices are for "vanilla" migration and does not include theme, design, and third-party add-on data migration. For forums which choose our incremental import services, this feature allows us to do a test import/installation where you can take all the time you want to test, work on the look of you forum, etc. - and when you're ready, we run a "catch-up" import of new content from you live forums, and then turn your test forum into your new live forum.

Speed
Most servers are designed for typical "read mostly" workloads. We have dedicated custom-built servers with hardware and software optimized for high volume "write" loads typically encountered by forum and CMS migrations. Our servers can typically handle migrations at twice the speed of even most NVMe SSD based servers typically offered by hosting companies.

Experience
We've handled hundreds of migrations, and know how to solve the most common problems encountered during migrations.
