Ability to select the right certificate in Migrator
If a customer(account) has more than one certs in his "store" , than migrator do not use the correct one on the new destination, the extension provides always the first in store .. this is only an information, but this is very "annoying" - the migrator could be faster and the fetching is very slow too , but up to this "issue" the extension works good.

Provide migration licenses 24/7, not only on workdays
Often times migrations are done on weekends. I'd like to be able to get a migration license as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12388069544215-How-to-get-Plesk-Web-Host-edition-trial-license-for-migration at any time. The current workflow where this can only be requested and handled on weekdays during business hours can block my own workflow, e.g. when I have and emergency and absolutely must migrate.

Improve speed of Migration Manager re-sync process
Because there is a re-sync option, the overall speed of the initial data transfer with Plesk Migration Manager (PMM) doesn't matter that much (to us), however when re-syncing the speed of the process is super important because domain web and email services on the source server must be down/offline to prevent data inconsistencies. The re-sync process currently takes roughly 1 hour per 100 subscriptions.
Here's three ways the re-sync process could be improved to minimize web and email service downtime:
# 1. Fetch configuration data ONCE
PMM batches 5 subscriptions at a time, and prior to each batch of 5,…

When migrating to a pro license recreate customers with their domains
When migrating a Reseller's customer the domains is re assigned to the administrator when source has a host license and target a pro license.
In this scenario it would be nice to detach the customers from their resellers and create them on the target server with their domains.

Migrate SpamAssassin training database to a new server when using Plesk Migrator
When migrating data to a new server using Plesk Migrator, all SpamAssassin trainings are lost, hence users receive more spam on the new server than they did before. It would be good to migrate SpamAssassin training content to the new server.

Identify live domains by verifying they're reachable
I have two servers that basically just mirror my domains. When I need to update the operating system on one of them, I migrate to the other and repoint the IP addresses. Fairly simple, DIY manual failover basically. (BTW, it would be great if this was more automated with regular incremental backups to the failover server.)
When I'm on the "inactive" failover server (when the domains are pointed at the other server's IP address), there is no indication that the domains are not reachable by the current server's IP address, which leads to confusion when switching between browser tabs to…

Run pre-migration checks only for the domains to be migrated
Migrating more than one subscription causes a problem. The pre-migration check scans all users and all files on the backup disk, which takes quite a long time with a large number of backups (7TB+). Instead of scanning only the files of the users to be migrated (as when migrating a single subscription).
When I unmount the backup disk, Plesk doesn't scan it and the migration takes only a few minutes.

Cross-platform migration from Plesk Windows to Linux
Cross-platform migration
Migration from Plesk Windows to Plesk Linux, at least migration of business logic (customers,emails,etc) so the user would not have to create it manually when transferring content using Site Import.
In cases with a hundred mailboxes, manual creation, and password management can become a daunting task.2 votes -
Ability to migrate websites added to 360 Monitoring via Plesk
The extension Monitoring allows adding websites on a Plesk server to 360 Monitoring but the websites remain linked to the source server after a migration.
It would be easier to migrate them, avoiding re-adding manually with losing the history2 votes -
Add Auto Install SiteJet Website Option to Plesk Service Plans
Requesting a feature to add an option on the Plesk Service Plan "Additional Services" page to automatically install a SiteJet site. This would be similar to the same options that currently exists for WordPress from the WordPress Toolkit dropdown on that same page.

Set LVE to "unlimited" for users created temporarily on Migration to speed up Migration on CloudLinux
The CloudLinux employs several techniques to limit performance, among others "LVE" limits. These are limits on resource usage such as CPU speed, RAM, I/O speed, number of processes, etc.. It is an established fact that the Plesk Migrator is capable of modifying CloudLinux components to allow the Migrator to do it's job, like disabling CageFS for the source user and target server. So, it stands to reason that the Plesk Migrator could also modify these LVE limits to improve performance of the data-transfers to the target server. The I/O limit of 1 MB/s is an LVE default limit for users…

Keep the collation MySQL settings during the migration
Migration of the databases from the old MySQL servers should keep the original collation of the tables. If the databases on the source server have the different collation setting these databases should have the same collation settings on the target server after the migration.

Allow the migration process to do multiple sessions when migrating to the same destination server
When I migrate from (Server B) to (server A) and the session is running, then I can no longer create a new migration session from (server C) to (server A)
I want to be able to migrate multiple process/session simultaneously so that the data migration process is more efficient.

Add a Warning to Plesk Migrator for when there are clients to be migrated with the same name in both the source and the target server.
E.g.: When migrating data from Server A to Server B, if the name of the client being migrated from Server A is the same as the name of an existing client on Server B, then Plesk Migrator imports such data into the existing client without giving a warning that the name of the client to migrate already exists on Server B.

Expand the ssh port field to 5 digits
ssh can be configured to listen on different port numbers. The default is port 22. It can also answer on port numbers up to 65535, but the field on the migrator only takes 4 digits. I have ssh listening on a 5 digit port. This is just bad form.
