Cody updated the importer today, you can get it here - http://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/topic/960-whmcs-migrator-beta-updated-2013-10-22/

We don't recommend it, and will not maintain it.. but if someone really needs something, it's an option. An option we are likely to decline, but we've done it before in a couple cases. We recommend sticking to extensions because it doesn't eliminate an upgrade path.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. When an invoice is generated, the renew date for that service should be moved forward.

We are available for sponsored and custom development, email sales and we can discuss. If it's an extension it's a lot easier than a change to a core feature. For sponsored development, we only implement changes that we want to add to the product but can't do yet due to heavy demand of other features. For everything else it's custom development where we would make the change or build the feature just for you, and not include it in a future release.

What modules are you waiting for?

There's probably some custom code you can add to pull custom fields into invoices. Does it have to go in a particular place? Tyson may be able to help.

An update is coming that imports packages and services this week. Thanks for the suggestion, some kind of indicator would be great. No CLI option at the moment. How much data do you have?

This week

It's looking very likely that Proxmox will be included in 3.1. Stay tuned.

Just a note, this solves the issue where the hosting plans don't appear after selecting a domain. It does not automatically fill in the domain for the hosting plan. That requires a more complex solution, and we'll be taking a look at that later.

It's in active development, and is very likely that it will be in beta sometime next month. I haven't seen that, do you know who said that? All very good reasons! Thanks for the suggestion, we are certainly open to the idea of partnering with a live chat company.

We have a beta Enom module that is scheduled to ship with 3.1. If you have an installation of 3.0 (paid or trial is fine) I can send you the beta module for testing. We do not currently have a Virtualmin module. I don't have one in particular I can recommend, but there are several really good options available. I would probably recommend some feedback from the community on this. There are quite a few things that are different, largely a lack of extensions at the moment.. that's the biggest issue, and one we're working on. In terms of core features, probably configurable options (scheduled for 3.1) and proforma invoices (scheduled for 3.2 I believe) Blesta does a lot of things better, like better accounting of transactions and invoices. We have an importer that imports virtually everything except packages and services. We should be making an updated importer available with support for packages and services this week. It will be available on the forums when it's ready. I suggest downloading Blesta from the home page, installing and selecting the "start a 30 day free trial" option. Play around with it, let us know what you think and if you aren't sure if a particular feature that you need exists or not. Our development is prioritized by what people need most going forward. Thanks!

Migrating to 2.5, then importing to 3.0 isn't officially recommended.. you will end up with less information imported than importing to 3.0 directly. I suggest waiting a few days and trying our updated 3.0 importer.

I believe Softaculous may be working on a Virtualizor module for Blesta. You might follow up with them to see if that's the case, and if they have an estimate on when it will be available.

It might not be too terrible to do a manual migration if that's the case. Have you downloaded and installed the trial? You can download it here - https://account.blesta.com/client/plugin/download_manager/client_main/download/13/ and install and just select to start a trial during installation. Here's the docs on installation, including a video - http://docs.blesta.com/display/user/Installing+Blesta

We don't have an importer for boxbilling at the moment, unfortunately. We have a couple other importers to complete before we'll be able to take a look at this one. Do you have quite a bit of data in the system?

Cody spent most of Friday working on the importer, and is getting pretty close. We should have something release next week, hopefully early in the week. Once we do, I'd love for you to run a test import and help us work out any issues.

Sandman, is this all you need to make a switch? If so, we can probably build it for you to make that happen.

nodes have to be selected at the package level. I have added a task however, CORE-832 that will allow SolusVM Node Groups -- as defined in SolusVM to be selected for provisioning. This will allow you to assign new nodes to groups in SolusVM and be automatically added to the pool.

It should be included in 3.1, before the end of the year.. at least that's the plan! But hey, if you want to sponsor development on something else, or donate to our beer fund we're up for that.

We have one http://www.blesta.com/2013/01/17/cake-or-pie-video/

I'll see what we can do about fast tracking the service import and wrapping up the importer. It's just a little... complex. We want to get you up and running.

Yes, however the WHMCS importer does not currently import services and packages.. it imports everything else. I was actually talking with Cody about this earlier today, we need to get that importer finished up. I also know that you need a way to import legacy plans, and a price override for services would be ideal for this. We talked through it and know pretty much how we're going to do it, but I don't have an ETA for this yet. It's tentatively slated for 3.2, but if we have time I'd love to get it in 3.1.. I know a lot of people want it.

Well, it looks a little blurry because I think the forum scaled it down a little. Just wanted to show you guys some progress, glad you like it.

Someone sponsored development for Enom, and it's virtually done. I believe he is doing some testing still and it's very much considered beta.
