WP Engine Site Migration

When restoring a backup to an environment, there is currently no way for a WPE user to know how the process is doing, whether it failed, didn't start correctly, etc. I had a few attempts just disappear into the ether this morning. On a chat an agent recommended I make a feature request here for the ability to see "restore" processes in progress and get their status.

I didn't finish migrating and the connection got cutoff, I had to stop the migration and now the plugin shows as "successfully migrated", I unistalled the plugin, I erased the environment in WP Engine and the plugin still doesn't give me an option to transfer again or try again! WHY!? There should be a button "RESET AND TRY AGAIN" This is what I see (But NO, migration wasn't successful): Migration to undefined 00 : 04 : 56 Migration successful! 100% 0.00 B of data was migrated in 4m 56s

Migrations seem to always get stuck between 2-5%. We have tested this from multiple hosting providers on different sites with completely different setups. They all fail or stall. Old plugin was SOO much more reliable. Migration speed is also comparable to dial-up! It's so bad. PLEASE just restore the old plugin or improve that and provide it as a second option.

I was attempting to migrate our site to WP Engine, but it was stuck calculating for over 45 minutes. After clicking cancel, it was stuck trying to restart itself. Host is LiquidWeb

I ended up only being able to migrate the database and the themes directory. Every time I tried to include plugins or uploads, it timed out. I ended up tar.gz the plugins and uploads folders and extracting them on Flywheel using SSH. It worked, but it's not a great experience, especially considering how excellent the old Flywheel Migrator plugin was.

When migrating to Flywheel, it was not clear that when the plugin says "Basic Authentication detected" I needed the username/password from Privacy Mode settings (or disable Privacy Mode).

Due to issues during the migration process, we had to cancel the operation. The plugin indicated 0B of data was migrated and concluded the migration was completed. I attempted to start the migration again but could not find a way to reattempt the migration.

The migration doesn't work, with an error of "Unexpected token '". Is it possible to use the old plugin?
