Migration service

Managed ecommerce migration

One accountable migration lead coordinates the source audit, mapping, trial runs, launch and post-launch checks across data, SEO and storefront dependencies.

How we approach the work

The source data and agreed mapping are the plan. Automation can flag oddities and compare results; Martin approves the exceptions and production decisions.

A documented migration plan, approved mappings, reconciled results and a controlled launch sequence.

  • Trial migration and acceptance criteria
  • Launch and delta-migration runbook

What's included

Managed Migration covers your full catalog — products, variants, categories and attributes — customer accounts and order history, media and content, custom fields, and a URL/redirect plan. Storefront design is transferred or rebuilt on the target platform as part of the same project, not billed as a separate surprise later.

We scope exactly what's in and out during the assessment, so you're not guessing what "migration" includes until the invoice arrives.

How design transfer works

Where the target platform can reasonably reproduce your current design, we rebuild it there. Where the platforms are too different for a like-for-like transfer, we tell you that upfront and propose an approach — adapting your design to the new platform's constraints rather than pretending it's a drop-in copy.

One lead, start to finish

A named migration lead is accountable for the whole project — assessment, mapping, trial migration, validation, launch and post-launch checks. Repeatable automated checks help inspect data and flag inconsistencies, while the lead reviews and approves every stage before it moves forward.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a managed migration take?

It depends on catalog size, data complexity and how many custom fields or integrations are involved — we give you a realistic timeline after the assessment, not a generic estimate.

What if my current platform doesn't have a clean export?

We work with whatever you have — database exports, API access, XML/CSV feeds, or a combination. Messier sources take more assessment time, which we account for upfront.

Do you migrate installed apps and integrations?

We migrate the data those apps rely on, but app-specific configuration usually needs to be rebuilt on the target platform's equivalent, if one exists. We flag this during the assessment rather than discovering it at launch.

How to choose an ecommerce platform before you migrate

Choosing a platform is the decision that shapes every later migration cost. Feature checklists from vendors rarely help, because most modern platforms cover the basics. The useful questions are about your catalog structure, the market you sell to, the systems you must connect, how much ownership you want, and what the migration itself will demand. This guide walks through those five questions and ends with a short list of red flags that should stop a decision.

The Post-Launch QA Checklist

The migration isn't finished the moment the new store goes live — it's finished when you've confirmed, deliberately, that everything customers and search engines depend on actually works under real conditions. Staging catches most problems, but a handful only show up with live traffic, real payment processors, and search engines re-crawling the site. This checklist covers what to verify in the days and weeks after cutover, independent of which platforms were involved.

Product Data Cleanup Before Migration

A platform migration copies whatever you give it — it doesn't clean up after you. Duplicate SKUs, orphaned images, inconsistent categories, and mismatched variant structures that have quietly accumulated over years will move to the new platform exactly as-is unless someone deals with them first. Doing that cleanup before migration is far cheaper than doing it after, when customers and search engines are already relying on the result. This guide covers what to look for and how to work through it.
