Can you migrate your community from Discourse to Jatra? Yes - you can. However, it's not a 'self-serve' migration. We'll do it for you - at no additional costs.

Why not self-serve migration?

Jatra is a fully-managed platform. We are committed to ensuring that our customers do not have to face the hassle of managing servers, importing data and backing it up. We do it for you.

That's why, if you want to migrate your community from Discourse to Jatra, all you need to do is schedule a call with us. We'll create a secure space for your data, and migrate it to our platform.

What is supported:

  • All user accounts

  • All posts + replies

  • Direct messages. 1:1 dms will be migrated. Group DMs are not supported. There is a workaround for this. So talk to us if you need this.

  • Channels and permissions

What will change:

Other than that - your users will absolutely love the new experience.
