Migration to MonikerSkip to main.

An exciting new chapter for our Partners & Customers.

All the great things you love about HEXONET are now part of Moniker.

We are excited to inform you that HEXONET will soon be moving its Retail section to Moniker, a fellow brand within our group. This integration is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance your experience with updated features, compliance, and services.

This page contains all the important information regarding the migration and covers details on products, services, platform and technology, along with any next steps that you need to take.

During this transition, you can expect the same high level of service, with some changes to processes and account management. This page will be updated regularly with new information as the transition progresses.

1. Overview of Migration

ONBOARDING PHASE

PRE-MIGRATION PHASE

One week before the migration:

  1. System readiness will be confirmed.
  2. We will:
    • Confirm that your customer account is active.
    • Confirm that you have reset your password in Moniker or confirm that you have access to your account.
    • Create a report of domains that will be renewed shortly after the migration and provide it to you if requested.
    • Send you a notification to remind about the migration date.

MIGRATION DAY PHASE:

  1. On this day you will receive an email regarding the start of the migration.
  2. A migration lock will be added to your account to prevent auto renewals / auto deletions.
  3. We will execute the migration at our end.
  4. Once the migration is complete, we will notify you that the migration has been completed.

KEY TRANSITION MILESTONES AND ACTION STEPS:


As part of this transition, we want to make you aware of what changes will occur in the HEXONET system and the key dates you need to be aware of for when these changes are planned to take effect.


30th December 2024

As of the 30th of December 2024, no further developments have been or will be made to the HEXONET platform except for critical security updates.


End of June 2025

All your customer portfolios will have been migrated to the Moniker platform. HEXONET's support will be limited to email only, and service level agreements (SLAs) as well as credit facilities will be reduced. The HEXONET systems will start to be decommissioned from this date.


During the migration of your existing domains, management of these domains will be temporarily unavailable, domains and DNS services will continue to function as usual. You can already register new domains through Moniker before the migration. We do not anticipate any data loss during the migration.
