Migrated and running
on nxeon-sg-01, verified live
- Files restored to their original paths
- MySQL and PostgreSQL databases imported
- 3 Docker containers up with compose
- Ports 443, 3000 and 6379 listening
We start everything we can and flag anything that needs a manual touch.
Not a request form. A button.
Most hosts offer migration as a ticket you file and wait on. Nxeon runs it in front of you, for your whole server, in minutes.
Nxeon one-click migration
- Connect over SSH, nothing to fill in
- Watch the scan and the move happen live
- Whole server: files, databases, Docker, apps
- Old server stays untouched and serving
- Free, and re-run it as often as you need
From A2 Hosting to live on Nxeon
Four beats, and only the first one needs you.
- Connect
Point us at your A2 Hosting server with its SSH details. No agent to install.
- Scan and detect
A read-only scan finds files, databases, containers and apps, with sizes.
- One click
Prerequisites installed, files copied to the same paths, services brought up.
- Live on Nxeon
We verify what’s running and list anything that needs a manual touch.
Your whole stack, moved and running
Not a folder-copy tool. Nxeon reads the real shape of your server and rebuilds it on the other side.
Auto-detects everything
Site files, home directories, databases, Docker containers, Compose projects and the apps listening on your ports.
No database passwords
MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL are dumped with root over local sockets, so you never dig up a credential.
Prerequisites installed
Docker Engine and Compose, your database engines, nginx or Apache and the runtimes your apps need.
Same paths, running
Files land where they were, databases are imported and services are re-enabled.
Checked up front
Storage, OS and CPU architecture are read first, so problem moves are flagged before they start.
Cut over only when you’re happy
Your A2 Hosting server keeps serving traffic the whole time. Test everything on Nxeon, then switch your DNS.
We start everything we can, and flag the rest
Most stacks come up clean. When something needs one manual step, we tell you exactly what and why.
- Files and home directories copied to the same paths
- MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL dumped and imported
- Docker volumes copied, Compose projects brought up
- Prerequisites installed, services re-enabled
- !Hand-built systemd units and one-off containers are flagged
- !Binaries for a different CPU architecture are flagged, OS matched
Why people move from A2 Hosting
General, defensible reasons people go looking for a different host, not a claim about anyone’s specific experience.
- !Product lineup weighted toward shared and reseller hosting, with VPS as one tier among many
- !Add-ons like backups, a dedicated IP and premium support are common upsells rather than included by default
- !A cPanel/WHM-centric control panel, rather than a lean, root-first dashboard
- !Limited focus on game-server hosting or one-click app deploys

Before you switch
The questions everyone asks first.
Will my site go down during the move?
No. The scan and the copy are strictly read-only on your A2 Hosting server — we only read your files and dump your databases. Nothing there is changed, stopped, or deleted, and it keeps serving traffic the whole time. Your site only cuts over when you're happy and point your DNS at Nxeon.
Do I need to give you my A2 Hosting account password?
No. We never ask for your A2 Hosting account or control-panel login. What we need is SSH access to the server itself, and we don't store those credentials either. Database migration doesn't need a password at all — we dump MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL using root over the source's local socket.
What if something doesn't migrate cleanly?
We're honest here: we start everything we can — files, databases, Docker Compose stacks, services — and then verify what's actually running. Anything unusual, like a hand-built systemd unit, a one-off container, or a different-CPU-architecture binary, is listed clearly so you know the exact remaining step, or our team can take it from there.
Is moving from A2 Hosting really free?
Yes. Migration is free, with no per-gigabyte fee and no migration surcharge — you only pay for the Nxeon server you keep running afterward, and you can run the migration as many times as you need before you cut over.
What about Docker?
We detect running containers, named volumes and Compose projects, copy the volume data and bring them back up with docker compose. Standalone containers started by hand may need a manual re-run, and we tell you which.
What if my old server runs a different OS?
We read the source OS and CPU architecture during the scan and flag differences up front, and can provision a matching OS on Nxeon.
Stop putting off the move.
Migration off A2 Hosting is free and your old server keeps running the whole time. Connect it, scan it, and see your whole stack come up on Nxeon.
