Moodle Migration Services That Protect Learning Continuity

IDS Logic can assess the source platform, define the target Moodle architecture, map courses and data, prepare hosting, migrate content and records, review plugins and integrations, run rehearsal migrations, support user acceptance, manage cutover and provide post-launch hypercare. The final scope depends on the source system, Moodle version, data availability and business requirements.

Yes. We can assess migrations from another LMS, course repository or fragmented training setup into Moodle. The exact data that can be transferred depends on source export capabilities, data quality, learning standards, custom features and whether equivalent Moodle functionality exists. Unsupported elements may need to be rebuilt, transformed or archived.

Yes. We can move an existing Moodle site between hosting environments or providers, including the application code, database, moodledata, scheduled tasks and connected services. Environment requirements, backups, DNS, email, integrations, monitoring and rollback are reviewed before production cutover.

Yes, but migration and upgrade are separate technical changes that must be sequenced carefully. We assess the current version, supported upgrade path, PHP and database requirements, plugins, themes and custom code before deciding whether to upgrade before, during or after the hosting or provider move.

Depending on the source and agreed scope, migration can include courses, categories, activities, resources, files, question banks, users, cohorts, roles, enrolments, grades, completion records, badges, certificates and selected historical data. We create a migration matrix so each data type has a clear source, target, rule and validation method.

We inventory plugins, themes, overrides and bespoke code, then assess target-version and PHP compatibility. Each item is classified for retention, update, replacement, refactoring or retirement. Changes are tested in a controlled environment so unsupported components do not become a production surprise.

Testing can include record counts, sample and automated data comparisons, course and assessment checks, learner and administrator journeys, role and permission tests, enrolment and SSO validation, integrations, email, scheduled tasks, reporting, performance and accessibility checks. Exceptions are logged and retested before sign-off.

Downtime depends on database size, file volume, migration method, change activity, integrations and the final delta process. We use rehearsal timings to define a realistic change window, communication plan and rollback point. We do not promise zero downtime unless the approved architecture and tested process can support it.

A straightforward provider or hosting move may take several weeks including discovery, preparation, rehearsal and validation. Complex LMS-to-Moodle migrations, major-version upgrades, large data volumes or extensive customisations may require multiple phases. IDS Logic confirms a delivery plan after the readiness assessment.

Cost depends on source systems, versions, hosting, course and user volumes, historical data, plugins, themes, integrations, testing depth, cutover constraints and post-launch support. We provide a clear scope and commercial proposal after reviewing the platform and migration objectives.
