The situation
Your platform licence is up for renewal, upgrades take a quarter, and every new feature needs a workaround. You know you need to move, but the store makes money every hour and search traffic took years to earn.
Who it’s for
- 01Brands on Magento 1 or 2, Salesforce Commerce Cloud or a custom legacy stack
- 02Teams facing a licence renewal or an end-of-life version
- 03Businesses whose catalogue, customers and order history must move intact
Risks we remove
What usually goes wrong on this kind of project, and the fix we put in place for each.
Risk 01
Revenue dip at launch
How we remove it. Staged cutover with a traffic split, a freeze window and a written rollback plan.
Risk 02
Lost search rankings
How we remove it. Full URL inventory, a tested 301 map and a pre/post SEO parity report.
Risk 03
Data loss
How we remove it. Repeated dry-run migrations with record counts reconciled before go-live.
Risk 04
Broken integrations
How we remove it. Integration contracts agreed and tested against staging before the cutover date.
How we approach it
Each phase ends with something you can review before the next one starts.
01
Phase 1 of 4
Assess
Inventory URLs, data, integrations and customisations. Agree what moves, what changes and what retires.
Architect
Choose the target platform, design the data model and write integration contracts.
Build and rehearse
Build the new platform and run dry-run migrations until counts reconcile.
Cut over
Freeze, migrate, switch traffic in stages and monitor revenue and errors in real time.

Questions we’re asked
How long does a replatforming project take?
It depends on catalogue size, integrations and customisations. Paid discovery ends with a fixed timeline and estimate before you commit to the build.
Will we lose our Google rankings?
Not if URLs are mapped and tested. We ship a redirect map, test it before launch and compare indexed pages and rankings after.
Who owns the code?
You do. Repositories live in your organisation from the first commit, and every licence, credential and deployment is in your name.
Do you sign an NDA before we share details?
Yes. We sign a mutual NDA before any discovery call where you share architecture, data or commercial details.
