Import/Export from cPanel/Plesk
Any app out there that will transfer the whole site from cPanel to Plesk and visa versa?
This is one reason I don't get Plesk hosting. I don't want to deal with manually moving email, dbs and files on multiple accounts if the Plesk doesn't work for me.

well, you can do that if you have the server root password, but you need to migrate all accounts hosted in the server, i dont think that is possible for a single account.

Actually, technically you can do a migrate for one account or many - but the problem is that migrations between control panels often times don't go as planned due to one incompatibility or another. However, this cannot be done by you as a website owner, this has to be done at the systems administrator level as Spaceh has said.

Like jslivko said, it can be done but it is not the easiest process. Due to directory structure differences alone, things tend to go a bit haywire. SWSoft support can tell you more about using their migration tool though.

MadRooster,
But your also forgetting the rivalry between the different control panel vendors that keep trying to block/outsmart the other.Simpli Networks, LLC :: http://www.simplinetworks.com :: Proudly 100% Owned.

I spent a lot of time with SWSoft this week at hostingcon - they really are sincere in helping people migrate... it only benefits them to help one another.

You are right - lol. I don't recall any indication on sending them away.
Maybe they will all get together where we can give users viable options... or maybe I am wishing too much at this point. Either way, I would not attempt cPanel -> Plesk migrations now unless you know what you are doing and have a lot of patience - lol.
