The Magento to Adobe Commerce Replatforming Playbook
Replatforming is the highest-risk project most B2B stores ever run. Done well, it unlocks years of growth. Done badly, it tanks rankings, breaks integrations, and stalls orders for weeks. The difference is almost always planning, not engineering.
This playbook is the sequence we use to move manufacturers and distributors off Magento 1, legacy Magento 2, or another platform, with rankings, data, and revenue intact.
What this guide covers
Before you migrate: the readiness checklist
Most failed replatforms were lost before a line of code was written. Get these locked first.
- An inventory of every integration, extension, and custom workflow
- A realistic timeline with buffer for data cleanup
- Who owns sign-off on catalog, pricing, and content
- A rollback plan if cutover goes wrong
Protect your SEO
Search rankings are the first thing a rushed migration loses. They are also the hardest to win back.
- A full crawl and URL inventory of the current site
- A 301 redirect map for every changed URL
- Preserving titles, metadata, and structured data
- A post-launch monitoring plan for rankings and 404s
Migrate the data that matters
Catalog, customers, and order history each carry their own traps.
- Catalog and attribute mapping between platforms
- Customer accounts, groups, and B2B pricing
- Order and invoice history you are legally required to keep
- Data cleanup so you do not migrate old mistakes
Test before you cut over
The go-live checklist that catches problems while they are still cheap.
- Checkout, payment, and tax across your real scenarios
- B2B flows: quoting, net terms, bulk and reorder
- Integration sync with your ERP, PIM, and CRM
- Performance and Core Web Vitals under load
