Quick answer: Order a Cloud2Y VPS or dedicated server in the location you need, copy your files and databases from your UKRAINE.com.ua server over SSH (rsync + database dumps), test the site on the new IP, then switch DNS. Prefer a hands-off move? Open a ticket and Cloud2Y engineers do the transfer for you free of charge.
Overview
UKRAINE.com.ua is one of the largest Ukrainian hosting providers, offering shared hosting and VPS across many tariffs. Moving to Cloud2Y follows the standard VPS pattern — copy, test, switch — and gives you dedicated resources, NVMe/SSD tiers and locations in Ukraine (Kyiv DC2, Lviv DC3), Amsterdam and Singapore, plus a free assisted migration.
Before you start
- SSH or control-panel access to your current UKRAINE.com.ua account and a fresh backup of files and databases.
- A Cloud2Y server sized for your workload (how to choose); a VPS is ready in 30 minutes or less after payment.
- Access to your domain's DNS records.
Step-by-step guide
- Inventory your sites, databases, PHP versions, cron jobs and certificates on the source.
- Provision the Cloud2Y server with a matching OS and install the same stack (or a control panel).
- Copy files from the source (or export them from the control panel if you don't have SSH):
rsync -aHz /home/USER/ user@CLOUD2Y_IP:/home/USER/ - Move databases with dumps — see migrating databases.
- Test via a hosts-file override (guide), then switch DNS and keep the old account for a few days as a fallback.
Common issues
- Shared-hosting exports: if you're on shared hosting without SSH, use the panel's backup/export tools (files + database) and import them on the Cloud2Y server.
- Email accounts: if your mail was hosted with the provider, plan the mailbox move separately — see the email-migration guide.
- Cancelling too early: keep the UKRAINE.com.ua service active until the new site has run cleanly for several days.

Frequently asked questions
Can Cloud2Y move my sites from UKRAINE.com.ua for me?
Yes. Open a free migration ticket with your access details and the list of sites, and Cloud2Y engineers copy and test everything; you only approve the final DNS switch.
I am on shared hosting without SSH — can I still migrate?
Yes. Export your files and database from the control panel, then import them on the Cloud2Y server; support can do this for you as part of the free migration.
Will my email move too?
Mailboxes are migrated separately from the website; tell support if you use provider-hosted email so it can be planned into the move.
