When Do You Need a Magento 2 Migration Service?
What Magento 2 Capabilities Do You Gain After Migration?
Magento 2 gives growing stores more control over catalog management, integrations, storefront updates, and regional sales.
What Magento 2 Migration Services Do We Provide?
As a Magento 2 migration company, Whidegroup covers data migration, extension replacement, integration updates, custom development, testing, and deployment.
Magento 1 to Magento 2 Migration Services
Magento 1 stores often carry years of custom development that cannot be replaced with standard Magento 2 functionality. We plan extension replacement and rebuild customization to preserve essential business workflows without bringing obsolete code into the new Magento 2 store.
Shopify to Magento Migration Service
Our team plans the replacement of Shopify apps with Magento extensions and identifies features that require custom development. We also restructure Shopify collections into a Magento category hierarchy, map old URLs to their new equivalents, and set up redirects to preserve established search visibility.
BigCommerce to Magento Migration
BigCommerce stores often rely on custom product fields, category trees, channel assignments, and platform-specific integrations that have no direct Magento equivalent. We determine which data and business rules require Magento attributes, extensions, custom development, or new integration logic. We also review category relationships and channel-specific configurations.
WooCommerce to Magento 2 Migration
WooCommerce stores typically depend on WordPress plugins and custom code, making migration genuinely difficult. Our Magento 2 migration experts restructure the catalog and preserve the buying path customers already understand.
PrestaShop to Magento Migration
PrestaShop product attributes, features, and combinations do not map directly to Magento’s catalog structure. We create a migration map for product variants, categories, URLs, and redirects to protect catalog logic and organic visibility.

Magento 2 Store Migration Process
The Whidegroup team keeps communication clear throughout the migration and prepares your store for a stable Magento 2 launch.
- STEP 1
Discovery and technical audit
We identify your needs, migration goals, and required functionality. Then we review your existing store's architecture and data structure, and conduct a code audit of your customizations, integrations, and third-party extensions.
- STEP 2
Migration planning
We align your existing functionality with Magento 2 features and define the migration scope, dependencies, and rollout plan.
- STEP 3
Data mapping
We map source data to Magento structures and flag records that need cleanup, transformation, or manual review.
- STEP 4
Theme development
We create the Magento 2 storefront based on the approved design direction, whether the goal is to preserve the existing look or introduce a redesign.
- STEP 5
Functionality rebuilding and customization
We replace missing functionality with Magento 2 extensions or custom modules when built-in features are not enough.
- STEP 6
Initial data migration
We migrate core data, including products, customers, orders, inventory, and transactional records to the Magento 2 staging environment.
- STEP 7
Testing and validation
We test functionality, integrations, data integrity, security, responsive behavior, and SEO elements before launch.
- STEP 8
Delta migration and deployment
We transfer data created or updated during the Magento 2 migration process, such as orders, customer registrations, or product updates before deploying the validated store.
- STEP 9
Post-launch monitoring
We check the live store, resolve migration-related issues, and monitor the areas most likely to affect stability.

FAQs About Magento 2 Store Migration Services
How long does it take to migrate to Magento 2?
A Magento 2 migration typically takes 3–12 weeks, depending on the source platform, store size, data volume, custom functionality, integrations, and design requirements.
Smaller stores with standard configurations may take less time, while highly customized stores require additional development, testing, and data validation. At Whidegroup, we determine the timeline after assessing your existing store and defining the migration scope.
How much does Magento migration cost?
As a rough estimate, expect $8,000–$15,000+, though the cost varies significantly depending on the current platform, catalog structure complexity, and the scope of needed integrations and custom development. Contact us for a project-specific estimate.
Can you migrate a store from an ecommerce platform not listed here?
Yes. We can assess stores running on other ecommerce platforms and develop a tailored migration plan for Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce. The plan accounts for the source platform’s data structure, custom functionality, integrations, extensions, and other technical requirements.
What data can you migrate to Magento 2?
Our Magento data migration services typically include the transfer of:
- Product catalogs and attributes
- Categories and category relationships
- Customer accounts and addresses
- Order history, invoices, and shipment records
- Inventory data
- Content management system (CMS) pages and blocks
- Store configurations
How do you handle extension compatibility during Magento 2 migration?
To preserve existing store functionality, we review all existing extensions and determine the most appropriate migration path:
- Native Magento 2 functionality: When Magento 2 already covers the required features.
- Compatible Magento 2 extension: When a reliable replacement exists, including options from Adobe Commerce Marketplace.
- Removal from the migration scope: When the functionality is no longer needed.
- Custom Magento development: When no suitable extension can preserve the required business logic.
Can I request additional features or integrations during migration?
Yes. We can add new features, integrations, or custom functionality as part of the migration project. We assess each requirement during planning to determine its impact on the scope and timeline, then include the approved work in the migration plan.
Can custom features and business logic be preserved during Magento migration?
Yes. We regularly work with highly customized stores, assessing existing business logic to determine what can be retained, adapted, or rebuilt in Magento 2. It is worth noting that such complex migrations typically require additional development and testing and may take three months or longer.
Will my store experience downtime during the migration process?
Downtime during the Magento 2 migration process is usually limited to the final data synchronization and deployment window.
Most migration work takes place in an isolated staging environment while your existing store remains live. We perform the final data synchronization and deployment during an agreed maintenance window, typically during off-peak hours, to keep downtime as short as possible.
How do you protect data during migration?
Our Magento replatforming service includes a well-honed data protection process covering:
- Secure data transfer protocols
- Controlled migration environments
- Established data migration tools
- Data validation after transfer
Together, these measures reduce the risk of data loss, corruption, or unauthorized access.
Will my store’s SEO rankings be affected during the migration?
A migration can affect organic traffic and rankings if URLs, redirects, metadata, or other search engine optimization (SEO) signals change incorrectly. We map existing URLs to their Magento equivalents, configure redirects, and review key elements during migration, following Google’s guidance on site migrations.
Can you help us scale and extend the platform after migration?
Yes. Whidegroup is a full-service Magento agency providing ongoing integration, optimization, development, and support services to help you scale and extend your store after migration.
What level of involvement is required from our internal team?
We work closely with your team during the discovery phase, when we gather your requirements and define the project scope. After you approve the plan, our team handles the migration work and provides progress updates at an agreed frequency, typically every two to four weeks. Your assigned project manager also remains available for your questions throughout the project.
