Migration sprint
Magento to Shopify, without the traffic cliff
A fixed-scope sprint that moves the store, preserves your organic rankings, and keeps every integration, ERP, CRM, fulfillment, live the whole way across.
The target we commit to in writing, and we fix any redirect we own that drops a page, at our cost. A $59 connector won’t stand behind your rankings at all.
What moves, what needs work
Moving from Magento to Shopify, cleanly
Needs custom work
The watch-outs
- Magento extensions have no Shopify equivalent, we map each to an app or custom build
- Complex catalog price rules need re-modeling in Shopify's engine
- URL structures differ, so the redirect map is hand-built, not auto-generated
- Custom Magento theme logic is rebuilt, not ported
Preserved
Carries over
- Organic rankings, via a complete 301 redirect map from every Magento URL
- Full order and customer history, with IDs preserved
- Products, variants, SKUs, and category structure
- Your ERP / CRM connections, rebuilt against Shopify
- SEO metadata, canonical tags, and structured data
How we preserve your rankings
A redirect-mapped migration, not a database dump
- 1
Crawl and map
We crawl every indexed Magento URL and build a 1:1 redirect map before anything moves.
- 2
Migrate and transform
Products, orders, and customers move with IDs intact; data is transformed to Shopify's model.
- 3
Rewire the stack
ERP, CRM, and fulfillment integrations are rebuilt and tested against the new store.
- 4
Verify rankings
Post-launch we monitor organic traffic and fix any redirect or metadata issue we own until rankings stabilize.
Connector vs. custom
Why a $59 app isn't the same job
| DIY connector | Novatorius | |
|---|---|---|
| Redirect map | Auto-generated, often incomplete | Hand-verified from your live index |
| Integrations | Not handled, you re-wire them | Rebuilt and tested as part of the sprint |
| SEO commitment | None | Committed in writing, with remedy |
The part connectors skip
Your ERP and CRM keep talking the whole way
A migration isn't done when the catalog moves, it's done when the systems behind it still reconcile. We rebuild and test every integration on the new platform, cut over safely, and hand you the keys.
- Safe cutover, no dark window
Nothing flips live until the new store is verified. The old store stays up as the fallback until it is, so your store and your integrations never go dark mid-move.
- Yours to keep, no lock-in
It’s a native build, not a proprietary connector. Your redirect map, your data, and your integration configs are documented and handed to you, you could take it in-house or to another firm anytime.
- It reconciles after the move
Order, customer, and finance data tie back together on the new platform, so month-end stays a report, not a fire drill.
Proof
Done this before
“They moved us off Magento without the traffic drop everyone warned us about.”
Questions
Magento → Shopify, answered
Will I lose my Google rankings moving off Magento?
Not if it's done right. The risk comes from broken redirects and lost metadata. We build a complete 301 map from your live index and preserve metadata, so rankings carry over. We commit to a 98% retention target in writing, and fix any redirect we own that drops a page, at our cost.
What happens to my order and customer history?
It all moves, with order and customer IDs preserved so reporting, support, and returns keep working. Nothing is left behind on the old store.
How is this different from a $59 migration app?
Connectors copy a database table and stop there, they don't rebuild your integrations, hand- verify redirects, or stand behind the SEO outcome. We do the whole system, accountably.
How long does a Magento to Shopify migration take?
A typical mid-market move is 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff. Heavy ERP integration or large catalogs push toward the upper end; we scope it precisely in the audit first.
