I know that this has already been mentioned dozens of times before, but why is EE 2 lacking so severely in data import utilities? It seems silly, specially since the old version of EE supported MT Import.
I’m sure that DataGrab is a great utility… but this baffles me. All of the other blogging/CMS solutions tend to provide easy imports. Are there any plans for (useful) data import utilities down the road?

I am sorry to say that while, yes, we do have plans for a data import utility eventually no first-party solution is available at this point.

For the record, DataGrab is a FANTASTIC addon!

Hi Jods,
Yes, as Ingmar said this is on our radar. At the moment DataGrab is definitely your best bet (thanks Steven).
Let me know if you have any other questions!
