§00 / MAGENTO · AUDIT / DEVELOPMENT

Magento.
Keep Magento healthy, or plan the way off it.

Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce maintenance, performance and integration work, plus honest migration planning when re-platforming makes more sense than another upgrade.

Review the work

Where we help on Magento.

Migration planningData mapping, SEO continuity and integration plans for moving to Shopify or another platform.Costed options

Magento's flexibility comes from its module system. We map how modules interact before changing one, so fixes do not create new problems elsewhere.

FIG. 02 — DELIVERY PIPELINE

Upgrade, stabilise or move?

Many Magento stores face a choice between an expensive upgrade and a re-platform. We lay out the options with honest costs, risks and timelines, rather than defaulting to one answer.

If you stay on Magento, we stabilise and maintain it. If you move, we plan and run the migration with redirects and data reconciliation.

A few things, clarified.

Is Magento 1 still safe to run?

Magento 1 reached end of life in 2020 and no longer receives official security patches. Moving off it should be a priority.

Should we upgrade Magento 2 or move to Shopify?

It depends on customisation, integrations, team skills and total cost of ownership. We give you a costed comparison so the decision is based on numbers rather than preference.

Can you fix a slow Magento store?

Usually. Caching configuration, indexers, extension conflicts and hosting are the common causes, and we diagnose before changing anything.

Do you support Adobe Commerce?

Yes, including Adobe Commerce Cloud environments, alongside Magento Open Source.
