Magento to Shopify Migration

Magento merchants migrate to Shopify when the cost-to-feature ratio stops making sense. Adobe Commerce licensing fees. Specialized developer rates that climb every year. Extension dependencies that fight each other on every release. Plus the version-upgrade pain that big Magento installs know too well.

We’ve handled Magento to Shopify migrations from both Magento 1 (end-of-life since 2020) and Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce installs. The work is real engineering, not a data dump.

What We Migrate

  • Products. Simple, configurable, bundle, plus grouped products mapped to the right Shopify pattern. Attributes preserved as metafields where useful.
  • Customers. All accounts migrated. Passwords reset on first login via Shopify’s standard flow.
  • Orders. Full Magento order history visible in the Shopify admin for support and analytics.
  • Categories. Magento categories mapped to Shopify collections with smart rules where they apply.
  • B2B catalogs, customer groups, plus tier pricing. Mapped to native Shopify B2B on Plus, or to apps on standard.
  • Multi-store views. Mapped to Shopify expansion stores when separate storefronts are genuinely needed.
  • Blog and CMS content. Posts, pages, custom blocks where exportable.
  • Redirects. Every indexed Magento URL gets a 301 to the Shopify equivalent.
  • SEO metadata. Titles, descriptions, canonical URLs, structured data.

What Makes Magento Migrations Different

Multi-store complexity. Magento’s store/website/view hierarchy doesn’t map directly to Shopify. We assess whether your Magento multi-store actually needs to remain as separate Shopify stores (via expansion stores on Plus) or whether it consolidates into one Shopify store with markets and locales.

Product type translation. Configurable products are straightforward. Bundles and grouped products need decisions: bundle app, metafield-based grouping, or custom logic. We make these decisions during audit, not mid-build.

Custom Magento modules. Most enterprise Magento installs have custom code that no Shopify app replaces directly. We catalogue these during audit, then either find a Shopify app substitute, build a custom Shopify app, or implement the logic via Shopify Functions on Plus.

B2B from Magento Commerce. Native B2B on Shopify Plus now covers most of what Magento Commerce B2B does (company accounts, catalogs, tier pricing, payment terms). The migration is cleaner than it was two years ago.

Why Brands Choose Us for Magento Migrations

  • Enterprise migration experience. Magento installs are bigger and more interconnected than the average Shopify build. Pattern recognition saves weeks.
  • Custom theme during migration. Default themes work; custom themes convert. We design and build the theme as part of the migration, not as a follow-on project.
  • 30-day post-launch coverage. Edge cases surface in the first month. We monitor closely and stay reachable.
  • Honest scoping. Some Magento installs don’t migrate cleanly to standard Shopify and genuinely need Plus. We tell you which tier fits during discovery, before you commit.

FAQs

Can you migrate Magento Commerce (formerly Magento Enterprise) to Shopify Plus?

Yes. Enterprise migrations are most of our Magento work. B2B catalogs, customer-specific pricing, plus multi-store setups map cleanly to Shopify Plus features like native B2B, expansion stores, and Shopify Functions.

How do Magento product types translate to Shopify?

Simple products become Shopify products. Configurable products become Shopify products with variants. Bundle and grouped products need a Shopify approach (often bundling apps or metafield-based grouping); we assess your specific setup during audit and recommend the right pattern.

What about Magento extensions we rely on?

Each extension gets evaluated. Some have direct Shopify app equivalents. Some need custom replacements as Shopify apps or Functions. We provide a full extension-to-replacement map before kickoff.

Will SEO survive a Magento migration?

With proper redirect work, yes. Magento URLs are well-known and map predictably. We build a one-to-one redirect for every indexed URL, carry over titles, descriptions, plus structured data. Most migrations recover ranking within 2 to 4 weeks.

How long does a Magento migration typically take?

Standard Magento to Shopify migrations run 8 to 12 weeks. Enterprise Magento Commerce to Shopify Plus migrations with B2B and multi-store run 12 to 20 weeks. We provide a detailed plan with milestone dates before kickoff.
