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,…

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…

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…

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.

Allow migrations of accounts between servers that share an external Smartermail server
As above.
Currently, it just fails as it tries to create the mail account on the receiving server which already exists on the mail server.
At the least, you could allow migrations to exclude the entire mail domain and then make an account import tool to bring them into the receiving server.

Allow multi-thread options in Plesk Migrator to speed up huge migrations
The Plesk Migrator tool is very limited when migrating a big amount of subscriptions, databases and mails.
Checking the CPU usage when performing a migration, Plesk Migrator utilities are not reaching 20% of the CPU because this tool is not supporting multi-threading.
Therefore, due to this limitation, a huge migration can take a few days or even more than a week to be completed.
If Plesk Migrator would use the full capabilities of the hardware available in our servers, the migration can be faster and match our migration deadlines.
It would be great that a few options in panel.ini or…

Add docker containers to plesk migrator
I'm in a position where I'm offering my customers elastic server and redis server usage access via docker. This helps isolate them, secure their data and also guarantee resources.
However it's getting really tedious to migrate the subscriptions because of this. I would love it if there was a way to migrate docker containers between plesk installations
Additionally it would be awesome if there was a way to create a link between docker container and subscription. That way when I migrate a subscription, only the relevant docker containers would get migrated

Ability to use admin credentials for Migration Manager
Using root password is not secure. Using SSH key is not comfortable.
Destination Plesk should connect to the Source Plesk with admin credentials and send a temporary SSH key to the Source server. This key can be than deleted after migration. Or for more security admin of Source server can generate a one time password only for migration.
