Plesk Migrator should be able to migrate customers, Resellers and Service Plans that do not have any Subscriptions attached
Service Plans with no Subscriptions assigned as well as Resellers and Customers that do not have any Subscriptions assigned are not migrated via the Plesk Migrator to the new Plesk server by design, because they are considered obsolete and unnecessary.
Yet in many cases, such a transfer of data in necessary, due to which an option that allows this to happen should exist.

Change domain name during migration
Add an option to Plesk Migrator allowing to change names of subscription/domains/databases, etc. during migration. For example on source server subscription name is example.com and on target it should be example.net. It is better than manual rename of subscription and both websites can be live on different servers

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.

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.

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.

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.

Integrate option to interrupt copy processes
I've copied a larger website to another destination, but I needed to interrupt the process, because something needed to get changed first. But there is no way to do so, I needed to wait a couple minutes before the task was done, why is there no option to cancel the current process? You could add an additional alert, if someone really wants to cancel it, but I see no reason, why this option is not available at all.

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.

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.

Ability to migrate messages of SmarterMail using file copying function
Currently migration of mail messages performed when SmarterMail v100 is used performed via IMAP protocol. This is slower then simply copying file. Please add ability to migrate messages via simple copying too to speed up migration.
