Skipp23468yPlease please dont use plugins for migration. Takes ages and shared hostings start crying in agony. Just do a copy/pasta of your root and a simple sql dump from phpmyadmin.
All you have to do in production (or the migrating server) is to change your website and home url in the settings table.
Takes literally 5min do do it all -
@Skipp Just saw this message and yeah. I actually completed the migration with manual method because this plugin was buggy as hell that I couldn't restore.

Good! It's very straightforward and takes less time. Actually the only time taken is to upload all the files again.
I usually compress it into a single archive and extract everything on the server so ftp doesnt take ages
