Migrate to a Modern Commerce Platform With Less Risk
We help businesses with platform migration, moving from legacy or underperforming platforms to modern commerce solutions with careful planning, clean execution, and post-launch support.
The Challenge
The Risks of E-commerce Platform Migration
Many businesses outgrow their existing e-commerce platforms. WooCommerce may become difficult to maintain. Magento may become expensive and complex. Legacy platforms may restrict growth, performance, or customer experience. 27% of e-commerce companies are now looking to switch platforms, and 46% consider replatforming a top priority. But an e-commerce platform migration can create serious risks if not handled carefully. Product data, customer data, order history, SEO rankings, integrations, and checkout flows all need to be protected. A poorly planned migration can damage traffic, revenue, and operations for months.
The cost of a poorly planned migration is far higher than the cost of planning it properly.
Our Solution
A Structured Migration Process - Not a Risky Cutover
As an experienced e-commerce migration company, Innovadel helps businesses plan and execute e-commerce replatforming with a structured approach. We assess the current platform, define the future platform, map all data and integrations, rebuild the customer experience, test thoroughly, and support the launch. Our goal is to reduce migration risk while helping businesses move to a more scalable and manageable commerce platform. 90% of recent migrators experienced sales and revenue improvements after switching, and a well-planned migration with proper redirect mapping can achieve up to 40% traffic increases by month three.

FAQs
Common questions
What is e-commerce platform migration?
E-commerce platform migration (replatforming) is the process of moving an online store from one commerce platform to another, such as Magento to Shopify Plus. It involves migrating product, customer, and order data, rebuilding integrations, and protecting SEO throughout the transition.
When should businesses consider e-commerce platform migration?
Consider migrating when your platform struggles with performance, scalability, or cost, or restricts customer experience and growth. Common triggers include slow checkout, expensive maintenance, weak integrations, or inability to support modern features. 27% of e-commerce companies are actively evaluating a switch right now.
How long does the e-commerce migration process take?
Most migrations require 4-6 weeks of preparation before launch and 4-8 weeks of post-launch monitoring, roughly a 3-month window. Complex catalogues with 10,000+ products and 30,000+ URLs need additional time for redirect mapping, testing, and validation.
Will I lose my data during the migration process?
Not with proper planning. Data migration carries an 83% failure rate when unmanaged, but structured data mapping, validation checks, and parallel testing before final cutover eliminate this risk. Products, customers, orders, and historical records are mapped and verified before go-live.
Will migration affect my SEO rankings?
Only if poorly managed. A mismanaged migration can cause 20-50% organic traffic loss taking months to recover. With full redirect mapping, metadata preservation, and structured launch checks, a well-planned migration can instead achieve up to 40% traffic growth by month three.
Can I continue to run my store while migrating to a new platform?
Yes. Migrations are planned around parallel environments and staging, so your existing store stays live and operational throughout development and testing. The new platform only goes live after thorough QA, with a clear rollback plan in place if needed.
What happens to my custom features during migration?
Custom features are audited during discovery and mapped to equivalent functionality on the new platform, rebuilt natively where possible, or replaced with comparable apps or integrations. Nothing is dropped without review; every feature is accounted for before launch.
How Much Do Ecommerce Migration Services Cost?
Cost depends on catalogue size, integration complexity, and target platform. Smaller migrations can start in the low five figures, while enterprise replatforming (Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Adobe Commerce) with complex integrations typically runs higher. We scope cost after a discovery assessment.
What Platforms Do You Migrate To?
We migrate to and from Shopify Plus, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and headless commerce architectures. Whether you're moving from a legacy platform or modernising an existing one, we recommend the platform that fits your business, not ours.
Do You Offer Post-Migration Support?
Yes. Our Migration + Support Retainer covers post-launch monitoring, issue resolution, and optimisation after go-live. Since most migrations need 4-8 weeks of stabilisation, this ensures performance, SEO, and functionality are fully validated rather than left unmonitored after launch.
