I would do export /import to get your subsite moved. you can do that from powershell or Central admin if you have access. sure thing is to keep a back up.

Problem: I have a subsite that is very large and taking up too much space. I want to move it.

Issue: I cannot save it as a template because they insisted (and were approved by someone other than me) on using these Skybow apps and the template can't save because of them.

Additional Issue: I can't save the document libraries as templates because they are too large.

So I'm looking for a way around all of this. I am not familiar with PowerShell and I'm not sure my company will purchase an application just for this team.

Any options I am missing?? Thank you in advance!
