FAQ

Do I need my own AWS Account?: You do not need an AWS account to run a trial clone. A self-manage licence however requires an AWS account as this is where the instance will be built. Seahorse offers an account creation service for users if required.
Where are Trial clones created?: Trial instances are created in our Seahorse / AWS environment.
Why is there no option to select another Region?: Trials are restricted to the eu-west-1 (Ireland) region only. Users have the option to select any of the Lightsail regions however when using a production licence
Does your software support multisite networks?: No, the software does not currently allow migration or management of WordPress multisite. Multisite support is part of our development roadmap however and will be delivered later in 2021.
For how long are trial clones active?: Trial instances are active for 6 hours after launch.
Can I log into the Trial clone instance and make changes?: No, the trial instance is for front-end review only and access to the WordPress admin of the site is restricted.
What plan level is the Trial instance running on?: Trial instances are launched on the $10 Lightsail plan. More information on plan types can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/lightsail/pricing/. On production licenses the initial migration is also launched on the $10 plan but users are free from there to scale up/down as they wish

This is a really excellent tool. I have used it many times to migrate sites to AWS. Providing the site is well structured, the software runs in about 10 minutes (and a 15 minute wait for the new site to build). Clearer definition of what users see on the migrated sites would be helpful however as this is often confusing.
