A step-by-step guide for resellers migrating customer accounts from cPanel to Enhance. Importing your cPanel account into Enhance is straightforward and gives you the ability to perform your own account restorations without needing to rely on support staff. This is especially useful for accounts that need to be restored on a tight timeline.
Important: Do not create the domain or website account for the account you are importing before starting this process — doing so will cause issues.

Step 1: Create the customer account

Step 3: Select your previous hosting provider

Select your hosting provider. In this case, we are restoring the cPanel account of a cPanel customer, so select cPanel and click Next step. Image

Step 4: Select the import method

“Upload website backup” should already be selected — simply click Next step. Image

Step 5: Choose your backup file

Click Choose file to upload the cPanel backup file you have. If you need help generating a cPanel backup with your original cPanel provider, the steps are provided on this screen. Image

Step 6: Wait for the upload to complete

After selecting the backup file, you’ll see it uploading. Wait until the upload is complete, then click Next step. Image

Step 7: Review and import

Once you see “Everything looks good. To import your website, click ‘Import’,” click Import! Image

Step 8: Wait for the import to finish

After you click Import, your account will be imported and will show as completed once finished, so you can move on to your next import. Image

Step 9: Assign the website to the customer

After importing the website, the last and most important step is assigning the website to the customer. Click Websites to see your list of websites, click the three dots on the far right of the imported site, select Transfer ownership, and then select your new customer as the owner of the account. Image That’s it! The cPanel account has now been fully imported and restored into Enhance under the correct customer.
