WooCommerce to Adobe Commerce Migration Without Losing a Sale

Most migrations take 10 to 14 weeks from signed scope to production launch. Timeline depends on catalog size, the number of custom plugin integrations, and how complex your shipping and tax logic is. Stores with under 5,000 stock-keeping units and standard checkout flows land in 10 to 12 weeks. Stores with 20,000-plus stock-keeping units, business-to-business pricing rules, or enterprise resource planning integrations can run 14 to 20 weeks. You receive a specific timeline in your scoped proposal before any work starts.

Not if every indexed URL is mapped to a 301 redirect before DNS cutover. Our search engine optimization preservation process audits your current crawl, maps every product and category URL, recreates canonical tags, and resubmits your sitemap on launch day. A post-launch crawl validation runs within 48 hours of go-live to catch any redirect gaps. Most clients see a minor fluctuation in the first two to four weeks as Google reindexes, followed by stabilization at or above pre-migration levels.

Products (all types, variants, images, attributes, and categories), customers (profiles, addresses, and passwords via re-authentication flow), order history (all historical orders with status and line items), content (content management system pages, blog posts, and media library), and search engine optimization assets (URLs, meta data, canonical tags, and structured markup). Custom product meta fields and WooCommerce-specific post meta data are mapped to Adobe Commerce attribute groups during the architecture phase. Custom plugin logic that does not have a native Adobe Commerce equivalent is scoped separately.

Migration cost is scoped before any work starts. Most WooCommerce to Adobe Commerce migrations fall between $28,000 and $95,000 depending on catalog complexity, custom integrations, and whether a new theme build is included. Every proposal is line-by-line. You see exactly what each phase covers and what it costs before you commit. There are no time-and-materials overruns on fixed-scope work.

No. The entire build and migration happens in a parallel Adobe Commerce environment. Your WooCommerce store continues to take orders throughout. The DNS cutover is staged, with a validation window before the old DNS record expires. If any post-launch validation check fails, you can revert to WooCommerce in under 15 minutes using the documented rollback plan. Most clients see zero hours of unplanned downtime at launch.

The platform audit in Phase 1 maps every active plugin to one of three outcomes: native Adobe Commerce equivalent (no rebuild needed), available Adobe Commerce extension (sourced and configured during the build phase), or custom development required (scoped separately with a fixed price). You see this breakdown in the proposal. Most stores find that 60 to 75 percent of their plugin functionality is available natively in Adobe Commerce, which reduces the rebuild scope significantly.

Adobe Commerce is designed for brands generating above $1M in annual revenue with complex catalog, business-to-business, or multi-store requirements. If your store is below $500K per year with a simple product range, the platform cost may outweigh the benefit at this stage. The fit check below helps you decide. If Adobe Commerce is not the right fit yet, we will tell you honestly and suggest a more appropriate path. Submit your brief and we will give you a straight answer in the first call.
