    Thanks for sharing your opinion. I agree with you that it is not easy to migrate data from one cart to other cart manually, especially with low technical knowledge about migration. It is an important reason to develop automated Magento migration tool that supports directly online b usiness and technical staff to migrate osCommerce to Magento properly. These migration tools are not required many tech, so you can follow cart migration guide to transfer your store data.

    Both Magento and OsCommerce have been used widely for online eCommerce store development. Both are the best at some extent but still there are some areas that need to be improved. Hence, before going to decide osCommerce to Magento which one is the best you must consider the things like program updates, cost of premium themes and templates, hosting, multistore support, complexity, payment gateway supports and many more.

    Cool Move osCommerce to Magento

    You should then be able to run your import following these instructions:
    • Back up your database
    • Copy all your osCommerce product images into media/import (and make them writable by the webserver)
    • VERY IMPORTANT: Change the language for the admin interface to English (United States) - or no products will appear even after a succesful import. You can switch it back afterwards
    • Set up your import profile (from System > Import/Export > osCommerce)
    • Click on Run Profile on the left, and then the "Check Requirements" button
    • If you only have one store/website, the Website Code field will be "base".


    Or use OsCommerce to Magento migration to move products, customers from osCommerce store to Magento.
