Specialist Services - vBulletin, Big Boards, Custom Imports, Community +Server Management

Something happened to my MySQL installation to corrupt it, leading me to believe all the data was gone which would've made me rebuild what little posts I had to and could (still taking a lot of time and effort) on a new server as my database backup was 48 hours old (and the control panel authentication [Plesk] is tied to MySQL so I would've lost other sites as well).

SLAVIK SAVED THE DAY AND WAS ABLE TO RESTORE EVERYTHING! :D 10/10 support/service/price 👍
 
I’ve had my forums running on vBulletin 4 for years and had been in desperate need to upgrade especially being that it hasn’t been supported in quite some time. I had considered moving over the vBulletin 5 and even tried it for a time but absolutely hated it. Xenforo was not only a logical option, it was also one that I found to be superior but I wasn’t sure if or how my database could be migrated over to it. After doing some research, I reached out several people to see if they could help out but decided to hire Slavik and specifically because he was very knowledgeable, was willing to work me into his busy schedule and because the cost for his services was surprisingly affordable. In the end, Slavik did an outstanding job of first, migrating my forums onto a test site where I could look things over and make sure everything was there and working properly and then, moving everything over. When all was said and done, it was like my forum had always been on Xenforo and I couldn’t be happier.

Thank you so much for all your help Slavik, I really do appreciate it!
 
I worked with Slavik based on his reputation here, and I was not disappointed. Everything was moved over quickly and works perfectly. We went from vBulletin 3.8 to the latest version of XenForo, and all 7000+ members and 1.4 million posts moved over without issues. His prices were fair for the peace of mind that he had done this so many times in the past, and I had never done this before. We did a test import first to see if everything worked right, and then went live with the full import after that. I would work with him again, if I need this service again, for sure.
 
Slavik absolutely knocked my migration out of the park. Went from vB 4.2.3 to Xenforo without a single hiccup. He was extremely professional, communicative, and patient with my idiotic questions. I would highly recommend his services.
 
As an update to those who I have been delaying for weeks and weeks, I have finally worked through the majority of the backlog.

Additionally, I am now happy to accept most large cap crypto as payment for services.
 
@Slavik just moved and upgraded an existing site that I recently acquired. He is very professional and easy to work with. Everything was finished within hours... very fast! The site now works great... I highly recommend his services! As said above...

Hey Slavik, I sent a PM in regards to upgrading, not sure if you received it since I replied to an old PM. Could you please check it when you get a chance? Thanks
 
After many such requests, I am also accepting clients for ongoing forum and server management work. (Even if I didnt previously import your site).

This includes things such as:

Ensuring your server / environment are working optimally.
Updates and patches.
Planning the provisioning and deployment of new hosting hardware where needed.
Reviewing and ensuring value for money.
Troubleshooting.
From the planning to the end deployment addons with trusted and proven developers.
Most other technical work.

Hit me up a conversation with your requirements and I will be happy to review and suggest a costing and scope of work.

Another great job done by Slavik for us over at LandyZone Land Rover Forum. Slavik originally moved us from vbulletin3 many years ago, and this time an upgrade from an embarrassingly old version of xenforo to the current release, in super quick time. Very impressed and saved me hours of pulling my hair out. Thanks Slavik!
 
I'm absolutely impressed with @Slavik's work. He managed to transfer my website from a crappy disaster of a server to a fully functional server within what like 10mins? Otherwise this would have taken me probably a full weekend to do myself. He was very paitent with me and helped work on any issues that arised while transfering.

Here's a summary of what he was able to do:
  • Setup the new server to be secure and optimized.
  • Transfered my database and site files from a buggy Cyberpanel to a new functional cPanel server in a matter of minutes.
  • Got SSL up and running.
  • Fixed any additional errors that showed up in Admincp.
  • Fixed a firewall issue that caused emails to not be delivered.
So I would totatlly recommend @Slavik for his services. And I plan to hire him again shortly.
 
@Slavik knocked it out of the park for the 3rd time. We had a slightly complex migration going from URLJet / HomePageUniverse.com Slavik migrated not only our hosting but DigitalOcean attachments into a single Vultr server. His price was unbeatable and the service was very quick and painless.

I never thought about leaving a bad review for HomepageUniverse since being with them when they were called URLJet, but I’m sure glad I did, their engineers have gone completely downhill causing more issues than solving them, but I noticed a GIGANTIC speed improvement getting on a Vultr server that Slavik recommended.

Thanks again Slavik! Im sure I’ll be bugging you sooner than later for more help!
