The Inbound Commerce ReviewAgencies scored on what they publish about moving a store onto Adobe Commerce, not off it Updated 24 September 2026

Agencies that move merchants onto Adobe Commerce, ranked for 2026

On the weighting published on this page, scandiweb scores 93 of 100 and ranks first among ten agencies that publish work moving merchants ONTO Magento and Adobe Commerce, ahead of RMG Media at 82 and Krish TechnoLabs at 80. The weighting rewards published proof of an inbound migration with the source platform named, what an agency publishes about the limits a SaaS platform imposes, data migration integrity, B2B and catalogue complexity, Adobe standing, and whether the agency will also move a merchant the other way. Two findings shape the page. Nobody scores full marks on the heaviest criterion, because no agency ranked here publishes a single case study that joins a named SaaS source platform, a named client and a measured outcome. And scandiweb's lead is narrow: remove the Adobe standing criterion entirely and it leads RMG Media by one point. Scores describe what each agency discloses, not the quality of its delivery.

Ten agencies that publish something checkable about moving a merchant onto Magento or Adobe Commerce, each scored out of 100 against the six weighted criteria below. Scores describe disclosure, not delivery quality: an agency can run excellent migrations and score badly here, because a ranked list can only measure what is published. Every claim carries the URL it was read from, read on 24 September 2026.

2 How these were judged

What actually decides an inbound migration onto Adobe Commerce

CriterionWhat a pass looks likeWhat a fail looks likeWeight
Published proof of an inbound migration, with the source platform namedJudged on each agency's single best published case: full marks need a named source platform, a named client and a measured outcome together. Nobody earned them. 20 goes to two of the three plus a published timeline or price, 19 to two of the three, 16 to a named source with a published timeline or price, 12 to a dedicated inbound page naming source platforms with nothing attached.Nothing where the only migration proof runs away from Magento, or where the inbound offer is a single generic line about replatforming with no source platform named anywhere.26
What a SaaS platform cannot do that Magento can, stated concretelySpecific named limits tied to the capability that answers them, with hard numbers: variant ceilings, transaction fee percentages, store caps, monthly platform costs. Top marks also require the mechanism, not just the number, for example that contract pricing has to be resolved at request time from an ERP rather than stored in a price list.Nothing for a sales line. 'More flexible, more scalable, more customisable' describes every open-source platform against every SaaS one and tells a buyer nothing about their own store.21
Data migration integritySix things counted, each read off the agency's own pages: order history moved, customer accounts moved with the login consequence stated honestly, SEO URL preservation with 301 redirect mapping, record counts reconciled against the source, a rehearsed or trial migration, and a defined freeze or downtime window. The score is the proportion met.Nothing for a promise of zero data loss with no statement of what is reconciled against what, and nothing for a downtime claim with no window attached to it.17
B2B and catalogue complexityCompany accounts or account hierarchies, pricing tiers, a quote or RFQ workflow, and large or configurable catalogue handling, each described with its mechanics rather than listed as a word. Full marks need all four, at the level of how a Shopify company maps to a company account and a price list to a shared catalogue.Nothing where B2B appears only as a heading, and little where the only complexity evidence is a catalogue size with no account or pricing structure behind it.15
Adobe standing and certified depthOne test applied identically to all ten: is an Adobe partner tier stated at a level on the agency's own site, and is a certification count published there. The Hyva tier is read from the agency's own card in the full 460-listing register.Nothing where neither a tier at a level nor a Hyva tier was found on the pages read. No points anywhere for appearing in Adobe's directory, because that lookup could not be performed for all ten and a criterion only one agency was tested on is not a ranking.12
Whether they will also move you the other wayOutbound routes off Magento published as their own pages, plus a non-Magento platform recommended in named circumstances. An agency that will argue against its own product, in print, has told you something the brochure cannot.Nothing for single-platform positioning that never concedes a case where another platform wins. Being Magento-only is a real strength in delivery and a real gap in advice.9

3 The ranking

The ten agencies, ranked on what they publish about moving merchants onto Magento

1

scandiweb

Merchants who have outgrown a SaaS platform and want the destination argued before it is sold, especially where B2B account structures or an ERP owns the pricing93 of 100

scandiweb takes 93 of 100 and first place, and the margin is narrower than it looks. Its Magento and Adobe Commerce migration services page is built around arrival rather than departure, and names the inbound routes rather than gesturing at them: moving from Shopify or Shopify Plus for catalogue scale, B2B and multi-store control, and re-platforming from BigCommerce, in its own words, when SaaS limits hold back custom logic, pricing rules or integrations. A typical move is published at 8 to 16 weeks, with the SEO and redirect plan signed off before any build begins.

The strongest thing scandiweb publishes is not on a service page. Its guide to Shopify alternatives states the limits with numbers instead of adjectives: Shopify caps each product at 3 options and 100 variants, restricts checkout customisation on lower plans, and charges 2 percent on transactions processed outside Shopify Payments. It says Shopify Plus added B2B price lists and quote tools in 2024 and that they do not yet handle deep account hierarchies, multi-step approval workflows, RFQ-driven sales, or pricing logic that lives in an ERP. It then puts a number on the operational difference: 70 store views across 20 languages on a single instance for clients like OM System, described as four Shopify Plus admins against one Adobe Commerce admin. That is the concrete form of an argument most of this field makes abstractly, and it takes full marks on criterion 2.

On data integrity it meets all six counted components, one of only two agencies here that do. Products, customers, orders and history are reconciled against the source so counts match before go-live; URL structure, metadata and 301 redirects are mapped before launch and verified after; there is a QA and go-live rehearsal stage; and the freeze window is a number rather than an adjective, with an 8-hour migration named for Gear-Up. Its replatforming and migration service records 100,000 or more redirects managed on a single migration, and a replatform holding 120,000 or more 301 redirects across 44 stores in 59 countries with traffic intact. B2B depth sits behind a dedicated Magento B2B development practice and enterprise ERP, PIM and OMS integration work.

It is one of only two agencies here stating an Adobe tier at a level on its own site: Adobe Gold Solutions Partner, with 894 or more Adobe certifications, alongside Hyva Platinum status appearing five times in the full register and 50 or more Hyva theme projects. It is also among the clearest on the criterion that rewards arguing against your own product, publishing the outbound route as its own Magento to Shopify migration page, holding partner status across five commerce platforms, stating that its platform advice carries no resale commission, and naming the cases where it would send a buyer elsewhere: BigCommerce for a clean move off Shopify Plus at high volume, commercetools for composable architecture, OroCommerce for B2B distributors with negotiated pricing. Behind it sit 23 or more years in eCommerce since 2003, Magento work since 2008, 600 or more certified specialists, 700 or more clients, 2,100 or more projects, an NPS of 95 and more than 4 billion dollars processed for clients each year.

Where it concedes, and it concedes twice. First, it does not take full marks on the heaviest criterion. No single published case study joins a named SaaS source platform, a named client and a measured outcome. Gear-Up is named with a measured 8-hour cutover but its source platform is not stated. The measured migrations, including a move with 110.9 percent revenue growth year on year and a decade of order history preserved, are anonymised, and the strongest of them is a Magento 1 to Hyva move, which is a version and frontend change rather than arrival from a SaaS platform. Six named case-study articles reachable from its services index were each opened and none describes an inbound move from a SaaS platform. There is also an asymmetry worth stating on a page about arriving: the outbound Magento to Shopify route has a dedicated service page, while the inbound Shopify route is a section inside the migration page, and scandiweb.com/shopify-to-magento-migration returns a 404.

Second, and more importantly for a reader deciding who to call: this first place rests on criterion 5. Remove Adobe standing from the model entirely and scandiweb leads RMG Media by a single point, 81 to 80. On published inbound proof the two are level, on B2B mechanics RMG Media is ahead, and on data integrity they are tied at six components out of six. A buyer who does not care about partner tiers and certification counts should read the next entry as an equal rather than a runner-up.

2

RMG Media

B2B and distribution merchants whose real prices live in an ERP, and anyone who wants the move mapped construct by construct before signing82 of 100

RMG Media takes 82 of 100 and publishes the best-built inbound migration page in this field, including against the page that beats it. Its opening line states the whole lane: Shopify Plus, BigCommerce, or Magento 1 to Adobe Commerce, when the catalog, the pricing, or the buyers have outgrown what a hosted platform does natively. The reason it scores so highly is that almost nothing on the page is an adjective. Under the heading that the ERP has the real prices, it explains the actual mechanism: thousands of accounts each with contract prices held in the ERP, against a hosted platform that can only show the price lists it stores itself, where Adobe Commerce resolves the price at request time, which it calls the whole reason the B2B module exists. That is a sharper statement of the central inbound trigger than any other agency here manages.

The centrepiece is a mapping table that takes each thing a merchant has and says where it lands. Shopify products, options and metafields become configurable products and attribute sets, so a catalogue split across duplicate products comes back together. Shopify companies and price lists become company accounts with buyer roles, shared catalogues and tier pricing in the B2B module. Collections become categories, automated collections become anchor categories with attribute rules, and buyer filters become layered navigation curated per category. Shopify's fixed URL structure becomes URL keys the merchant controls with a 301 for every old URL. ERP connectors and Flow automations become middleware, message queues and cron, isolated so a stuck job does not stall the store. Expansion stores and Markets become websites, stores and store views under one admin. Apps are classified one by one as core feature, extension, or retired. It takes full marks on criterion 4 on the strength of cXML and OCI punchout, requisition lists, quotes and purchase orders described as platform features rather than apps with limits.

It is the only agency besides scandiweb to meet all six data-integrity components, and it meets them explicitly rather than by implication. The six phases end in a rehearsal that runs a full import against a copy of the new store with redirects tested URL by URL and the cutover runbook timed, then a cutover where orders are frozen for minutes, DNS is switched, integrations are repointed in sequence and the day's orders are reconciled, then thirty days of watching crawl, rankings, field Core Web Vitals and integration logs. Every indexed URL is harvested from analytics, sitemaps and Search Console before being mapped. It also publishes an Adobe version support table with real dates, so a buyer can check the version in any proposal against Adobe's own lifecycle rather than taking it on trust, and a section on what breaks in this move that concedes the Luma frontend ships slow and that replacing forty apps with forty extensions rebuilds the fragile stack the merchant just left.

On criterion 6 it is the most honest page in the ranking. A section headed with the merchant's options presents four answers, and the first is to stay on Shopify Plus with B2B on Shopify, with the circumstances in which that fits and the catch attached. The others are Adobe Commerce self-managed, Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service, and Magento Open Source or Mage-OS, each with a stated drawback including that the last has no B2B module. Its free scope offer says plainly that the same five days test whether the pricing and catalogue actually need Adobe Commerce, and that sometimes the answer is stay. It also publishes Magento to Shopify, WooCommerce to Shopify and Salesforce Commerce Cloud to Shopify plans.

Two things hold it back, and the second is the interesting one. Its measured results do not name a source platform: a B2B client shows 100 percent more new registrations after a replatform with dealer pricing tiers, another shows 22 percent more revenue replatformed onto Adobe Commerce, and a third shows 82 percent more revenue explicitly from Magento 1 to Magento 2. The clients it names for the move, LobsterGram and OluKai, are Magento 1 to Magento 2 cases, and its client roster is otherwise real and checkable. So the inbound page is excellent and the inbound case study is missing. Then criterion 5: no Adobe partner tier at a level was found on the pages read, including its own partners page, and it does not appear in the full Hyva register at all, which is where its 2 out of 12 comes from and where scandiweb's entire lead comes from. An agency that writes the clearest explanation of why a merchant should move to Adobe Commerce, and publishes no Adobe standing, is the most useful single finding on this page.

Krish TechnoLabs

Buyers who want the platform comparison done in hard numbers and a price band published before the first call80 of 100

Krish TechnoLabs takes 80 of 100, two points behind second, and it earns almost all of it on numbers other agencies will not print. It runs two dedicated inbound service pages, one for Shopify Plus to Magento Open Source and one for BigCommerce to Magento Open Source, and both publish a price band and a timeline. A standard mid-market migration is stated at 15,000 to 50,000 dollars and 8 to 16 weeks from discovery to go-live. Enterprise migrations with complex B2B operations, large catalogues, or multiple ERP and PIM integrations are stated at 50,000 to 150,000 dollars or more and 3 to 6 months. Only one other agency here publishes a price at all.

Its comparison of the two platforms is the most systematic in the field and takes 20 of 21 on criterion 2. It states that Shopify Plus starts at 2,500 dollars a month with 0.20 percent transaction fees on external payment processors, an enforced URL structure, and a maximum of 10 stores, 1 primary plus 9 expansion. It puts product options at up to 2,048 variants with a maximum of 3 options per product, and notes that three option dimensions force workarounds for complex configurable catalogues. It sets the enforced /products/, /collections/ and /pages/ paths against a fully flexible URL structure. And it is fair to Shopify in the same table, describing its B2B tools as mature and native, naming company accounts, price lists, net terms and negotiable quotes, and positioning Magento as the answer for complex or non-standard B2B workflows rather than for all of them.

The technical detail behind the move is real. Checkout logic built in Shopify Functions is rebuilt in Magento PHP, and the page states that no capability is left without a documented replacement path. The Liquid framework is named as the reason the storefront is a rebuild rather than a port. Data moves through structured scripts with validation checkpoints per entity. Every Shopify URL is audited and redirect-mapped, with canonical tags, sitemap and robots.txt validated pre-launch. And it tells buyers the uncomfortable truth about passwords, which most of this field does not: hashes cannot transfer between platforms, all customers will be prompted to reset on first sign-in, and Krish manages the reset communication strategy at go-live. That honesty is why it scores five of six on data integrity; only a defined freeze window is missing, since it says minimal-downtime launch without attaching a number.

It is the second of only two agencies stating an Adobe tier at a level on its own site, describing itself as an award-winning Adobe Commerce Gold Solution Partner, with 100 or more certifications, 5 or more awards, 350 or more storefronts launched, a 200-strong global team and 20 or more years. It holds Hyva Silver in the full register. What it does not publish is an inbound case study: no client is named for a move from a SaaS platform, and the comparison figures on the page carry an explicit disclaimer that the ranges reflect industry benchmarks rather than client results, which is a careful thing to say and is credited here rather than held against it. Its replatforming page covers both directions, which carries criterion 6 without taking full marks.

4

Foundation Commerce

A BigCommerce or SaaS merchant above roughly 10 million pounds who wants the cost case for leaving written down before a sales call60 of 100

Foundation Commerce takes 60 of 100 and publishes the only measured outcome in this field attached to a named source platform. Its article on migrating from BigCommerce to Magento, dated 14 May 2026 and written by its founder, names the trigger with a threshold, states the platform limits concretely, and puts a figure on the result. The trigger is a BigCommerce shop turning over 10 million pounds or more without an embedded payment provider. The limits are specific and unflattering: you hit the sales threshold on your plan and get pushed up a tier, you add the apps you need and watch the monthly bill climb, and you ask for a customisation your customers are begging for and find out it cannot be done. It publishes a fee figure too, putting payment fees at roughly 0.4 to 0.5 percent on top of standard gateway charges for a BigCommerce Enterprise merchant at 20 million pounds a year.

The outcome claim is merchants cutting total cost of ownership by 30 to 40 percent after migrating. It is aggregate rather than attached to one client, which is why criterion 1 scores 19 rather than higher, but it is a number and it is published, and the article headline puts the move at as little as 8 weeks. The piece also earns a little on criterion 6 by conceding when the SaaS platform is right, saying that for merchants doing 1 or 2 million pounds a year the BigCommerce trade-off makes sense. Its recommendation is Magento Open Source paired with Hyva Commerce rather than Adobe Commerce, argued as ownership against tenancy. Two dedicated inbound pages back it up, one for migrating to Magento and one for migrating to Adobe Commerce, with an eight-stage approach from deep discovery to ongoing support.

It holds Hyva Platinum, and it makes a claim that checks out: it describes itself as one of just two Hyva platinum partners in the UK, and the full 460-listing register independently confirms that the only two UK Platinum rows are Foundation Commerce and one other agency. It states Adobe Solution Partner status but not at a level, and no certification count was found on the pages read. Where it falls away is operational detail. On data integrity it publishes three of six components, covering order history, customer profiles and preserved SEO equity, but explicit 301 redirect mapping, reconciliation of record counts against the source and a rehearsed cutover were not found on the pages read. B2B mechanics were not found beyond a reference to the demands of scale, which is what costs it most against the three agencies above it. Its second inbound page renders its headline metrics as empty placeholders because they are JavaScript counters, so no figure could be read from it.

5

Meetanshi

A smaller or mid-sized store that wants a fixed, fast, warranted cart migration rather than a replatforming programme50 of 100

Meetanshi publishes more named inbound routes than anyone else here, with three dedicated service pages covering Shopify to Magento, BigCommerce to Magento and WooCommerce to Magento. It scores 50 of 100. What it sells is unusual in this lane and matters before comparing it with the agencies above: these are productised services, sold from a page carrying a quantity field and a quote button, on the same template as its extensions. The commitments are correspondingly fixed and unusually specific. It publishes delivery of the migrated store within 3 to 5 business days, a six-month warranty against migration issues, almost zero downtime, a stated guarantee of 100 percent data transfer, and certified Magento developers on the work. Its scope covers Shopify or Shopify Plus stores moving to Magento 2 Open Source, Commerce or Cloud.

The data scope is published route by route in real detail, which is what carries criterion 3 to three of six components. The Shopify page lists products with name, SKU, description, status, manufacturer, meta title, keywords and description, price, special price, weight, variants and additional images; customers; orders; full billing and shipping addresses; coupons with code and date; and CMS pages with title, URL and description. The BigCommerce page adds MSRP, product URL, and reviews with rate and title. Migrating product and CMS URLs and metadata is genuine work, but it is narrower than a redirect plan, and no 301 redirect mapping, record reconciliation or rehearsed cutover was found on the pages read.

On what a SaaS platform cannot do it manages one usable number and otherwise stays general: Magento, it says, does not require extra hosting support to manage up to 100,000 to 200,000 SKUs, and offers complex discounts and coupon codes in its open-source version where Shopify allows them only on paid plans. It holds Hyva Silver in the full register and refers to Adobe-certified experts without stating a partner level, and no certification count was found on the pages read. It publishes a Magento to Shopify service too, so it does not pretend the traffic runs one way. The gap that costs it most is criterion 4: no company accounts, pricing tiers or quote workflows were found on the pages read, which is the difference between a cart migration and the move a B2B merchant leaving Shopify Plus actually needs. On the evidence it is the most established of the newer names here, with a domain registered in 2017 and by far the largest referring-domain count of any competitor checked.

6

Neklo

A merchant who wants to see a real named store that has already made this exact move, and a fast timeline48 of 100

Neklo scores 48 of 100 and is one of only two agencies in this ranking that names a real, checkable client for a move from a SaaS platform onto Magento. Its portfolio page is titled Belleze, Shopify to Magento 2 Migration, and it states that the client came to Neklo to migrate their eCommerce website from Shopify to Magento 2, needing all customer, order and product data moved, servers set up on AWS, a new design, and launch plus technical support. Belleze is a real United States home and furniture brand, and the page carries an outbound link to the live store, which is the detail that makes the claim checkable rather than assertable. That is worth more in this lane than a longer list of anonymous work.

Its migration service page publishes figures that are useful precisely because they are specific: 35 or more stores migrated to Magento 2, a fastest migration of 3 weeks, and 12 to 16 weeks on average to migrate another content management system to Magento 2, which is a published inbound timeline rather than a general one. It also publishes a 3-month warranty covering post-migration support, 180 or more customers, 70 percent senior developers, a 200-strong expert team, and a commitment to no unexpected costs against a clear roadmap. On data integrity it meets three of six components: customer, order and product data, and SEO preservation stated as no data or position losses. Redirect mapping, reconciliation against the source, a rehearsal and a defined freeze window were not found on the pages read, and zero data loss with minimal downtime is asserted without a window attached.

It holds Hyva Silver in the full register and describes middle and senior Magento-certified developers, but no Adobe partner tier at a level and no certification count were found on the pages read. It publishes the reverse direction as well, with a Magento to Shopify article and a Shopify footwear store migration in its portfolio, which carries criterion 6. One thing a reader can check for themselves and should know: the same migration services page states both over 20 years and over 12 years as a leading Magento migration company, in two different places. Both figures are published on one URL, so this is not a matter of private knowledge, and it is raised as a question rather than a verdict: two tenure figures appear on the same page and nothing on it lets a buyer reconcile them. What it does not publish is any measured outcome for the Belleze move, which is why criterion 1 stops at 19.

7

Perspective

A buyer who wants a price and a timeline published before the first call, and does not need advice about other platforms48 of 100

Perspective scores 48 of 100 and does the thing this lane is worst at: it publishes prices. Shopify to Magento is stated at between 5,000 and 20,000 dollars or more depending on data, design complexity, customisation and functionality. WooCommerce to Magento starts at 15,000 dollars. It also publishes a timeline, putting a WooCommerce to Magento 2 move generally at 2 to 12 weeks or more. Alongside the Shopify and WooCommerce pages sits a third inbound route for osCommerce, so three named source platforms have pages of their own. Its commitments are a six-month post-migration warranty, 100 percent uptime, total data integrity and no security gaps.

Its data scope is the most granular published by any agency here, which carries criterion 3 to four of six components. Orders are listed down to order history, invoices, shipment and credit memos. Customers include customer group, with retail, wholesale and VIP given as the examples, which is the closest thing to a pricing-tier structure it publishes. Products carry metadata and URL, categories carry meta title and description, and the list runs on through coupons, CMS pages and blog posts, tax classes, rates and rules, and wishlists, ratings and reviews. It publishes a seven-step plan and states that data integrity tests verify all information moved accurately. On security it names PCI DSS-compliant gateways, reconfigures and tests each one after the move, applies GDPR data minimisation, uses SFTP and HTTPS only, and signs an NDA at the start of every engagement.

It is candid in a way worth crediting: it names the DIY migration products, listing Firebear, Cart2Cart and LitExtension as options, then states their limit, that they may not fully support custom aspects of a store. Few agencies volunteer the existence of the software competing with them. Its firm figures are 17 years of experience, 81 team members and a stated 100 percent Magento-only focus. That last figure is both its strength and what costs it most: it scores lowest of the ten on criterion 6, because no outbound route off Magento and no circumstance favouring another platform were found on the pages read. It holds Hyva Gold in the full register and states Official Adobe Partner status and Magento Core Contributor standing, but not a tier at a level, and no certification count was found on the pages read. No named client and no measured migration outcome were found either.

8

Codilar

A group consolidating several acquired brands and storefronts onto one Adobe Commerce instance45 of 100

Codilar scores 45 of 100 and holds the other named, checkable inbound client in this ranking. Its case study is titled for a Shopify to Magento 2 migration for Wingreens Farms, a real and well-known Indian food brand, and it also names RAW Pressery, the cold-pressed juice business Wingreens acquired. The published summary is that Wingreens needed to unify multiple stores and newly acquired brands onto a single platform, and that Codilar migrated customer, address and order data from several platforms into Adobe Commerce. That last phrase is the useful one for this lane, because consolidating several source platforms at once is a harder problem than a single-route migration and it is rarely published at all. The page adds an operational detail that reads like real project work: perishable products were tagged and mapped to warehouse proximity by pin code for serviceability.

It also answers the question directly in its own FAQ, stating that even where source platforms structure their data differently, customer records, addresses and order history can be standardised and brought into Magento together, and that rollout is staged so live sales are not disrupted. Beyond that page its inbound library is genuine: a WooCommerce to Adobe Commerce guide published in September 2026, which cites Store Leads for the claim that 23,479 merchants left WooCommerce in a quarter, and a SAP Commerce to Adobe Commerce piece. It also publishes the reverse route, a guide to migrating from Adobe Commerce to Shopify, which carries criterion 6.

What it does not publish is a measured outcome for the Wingreens move. The objectives and highlights on that page are qualitative, and no percentage or absolute figure appeared on the page read, which is why criterion 1 stops at 19 despite two real named clients and a named source platform. Its other case studies do carry figures and real brands, including a furniture retailer at double revenue after redesign and 60 percent growth in mobile users, another at 20.8 percent higher conversion and 19.4 percent higher average order value, and a retail and wholesale client at 1.2 seconds improved page performance with 20 percent lower infrastructure cost, but those are redesign and performance engagements rather than inbound migrations. Its published scale is 11 years, 240 experts and 10 awards. No Adobe partner tier at a level was found on the pages read, and it does not appear in the full Hyva register, which is what holds criterion 5 to 2.

9

BelVG

A merchant on an unusual or older platform who wants to check the route exists before asking anyone38 of 100

BelVG scores 38 of 100 and publishes the widest list of source platforms of any agency here. Its migration page states that it migrates online stores from Shopify, osCommerce, PrestaShop, Joomla and other platforms to Magento, and then goes further with a source-platform picker naming Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, osCommerce, OpenCart, Volusion, Salesforce Commerce Cloud under its Demandware name, and SAP Hybris, each with its own route. For a merchant on something unusual, that breadth is genuinely useful and almost nobody else offers it. It states it has worked with Magento since 2008.

Two of its published commitments matter for this lane. It names login information explicitly as something preserved, saying that saving design, structure, catalogue, product descriptions, orders and login information is its main task, which is one of only a handful of statements anywhere in this field about what happens to customer credentials. And its data migration section is collaborative rather than fixed, stating that the client decides together with the team what moves, listing product information, content, navigation layout, images, order history and price rules. It also references SEO options including URLs, redirects and canonical tags. That reaches three of six data-integrity components; reconciliation against the source, a rehearsal and a defined freeze window were not found on the pages read.

What holds it down is proof and credentials. Its related projects are anonymised by country rather than named, so a reader cannot check any of them, and the only migration case study found on its site is a move to Shopware rather than to Magento. The brands named on its migration page, including several luxury and sportswear houses, are cited as examples of companies that use Magento rather than as BelVG clients, and are not read here as client work. It lists Clutch Top Ecommerce Developers 2023, Shopware certified developers, Adobe Certified Developers and Official PrestaShop Expert, but no Adobe partner tier at a level and no certification count, and it does not appear in the full Hyva register. Its genuine multi-platform practice across Shopware and PrestaShop carries criterion 6.

10

Rocket Web

A merchant who wants the licence-cost case tested honestly before committing to Adobe Commerce, and will consider Mage-OS instead26 of 100

Rocket Web scores 26 of 100 and is included because it is the counter-case this lane needs. It is a Magento-community agency whose published proof runs firmly away from Adobe Commerce, and it publishes it with numbers: a large United States company moved from Adobe Commerce to Mage-OS, at under 40,000 dollars to switch and about 22,000 dollars a year in managed hosting, down from 57,000. That is a more specific published migration outcome than most agencies here manage in the inbound direction, and it happens to point the other way.

It takes full marks on criterion 6 and earns them as clearly as anyone. It publishes both choices as service routes rather than one: staying on Adobe Commerce, where it says that if the Commerce-only capabilities earn more than the licence costs then keep them, and leaving Adobe Commerce, where it offers to audit what a merchant actually uses and quote the move before it starts. Then it states the principle outright, that the right answer is not always Mage-OS and anyone giving every merchant the same answer is selling something. Under a heading saying the badges changed but the standard did not, it lists itself as an active Mage-OS Association partner, a Hyva Silver Partner, a Shopware Gold Partner and a Bureau of Digital member, and says it also works deeply in Adobe Commerce and NetSuite. Its Hyva Silver tier matches its card in the full register.

In this lane the inbound offer is thin. Replatforming to Adobe Commerce or Magento appears as a single generic paragraph on its services page covering planning, data migration and launch, with no source platform named and no inbound outcome published, which is why criterion 1 scores 4. It is the only agency here that states no Adobe partner tier at all, listing instead the names of four Adobe credentials its people hold, from Business Practitioner through to Adobe Commerce Architect, with no count attached. ERP depth is real and arrives through a client quote praising its Oracle NetSuite and Adobe Commerce knowledge across both platforms and the integration effort between them. A merchant who wants the destination pressure-tested rather than assumed should talk to them; a merchant who has already decided on Adobe Commerce will find more inbound evidence higher up this page.

4 Which one fits

Pick by the platform you are leaving

If this is youShortlistWhy
On Shopify Plus as a B2B distributor, and the real prices live in an ERPRMG Media, with scandiweb as the second callRMG Media states the mechanism better than anyone: a hosted platform can only show the price lists it stores itself, while Adobe Commerce resolves the price at request time. It maps Shopify companies to company accounts with buyer roles and price lists to shared catalogues, and treats cXML and OCI punchout, requisition lists and quotes as platform features rather than apps. scandiweb names the same limit, that Shopify Plus cannot handle pricing logic living in an ERP, and backs it with a dedicated Magento B2B practice and Adobe Gold standing.
Hitting Shopify's variant or option ceiling on configurable productsKrish TechnoLabs, with scandiweb or RMG Media alongsideKrish publishes the numbers in a table: up to 2,048 variants and a maximum of 3 options per product, with three option dimensions forcing workarounds for complex configurable catalogues. scandiweb publishes the tighter figures of 3 options and 100 variants per product. RMG Media describes the symptom rather than the limit, configurables split into duplicates and attributes crammed into metafields, which is often how a merchant recognises the problem.
On BigCommerce above roughly 10 million pounds and the payment fees have changed the mathsFoundation Commerce, with Krish TechnoLabs for a second priceFoundation Commerce has written the cost case down: the 10 million pound threshold, payment fees at roughly 0.4 to 0.5 percent on top of gateway charges, tier pushes and app creep, and total cost of ownership cut by 30 to 40 percent after migrating. It is the only agency here publishing a figure on the outcome of arriving. Krish publishes a dedicated BigCommerce to Magento page with a 15,000 to 50,000 dollar band and an 8 to 16 week window.
You want to see a real named store that has already made this exact moveNeklo or CodilarThey are the only two agencies in this ranking naming a checkable client for a SaaS to Magento move. Neklo publishes Belleze, a Shopify to Magento 2 migration, with an outbound link to the live store. Codilar publishes Wingreens Farms and RAW Pressery, consolidating several source platforms into one Adobe Commerce instance. Neither publishes a measured outcome for the move, so ask for one.
On WooCommerce or an older cart, with years of order history, reviews and tax rules to carryPerspective, with Meetanshi if the budget is fixed and the store is simpler, or BelVG if the platform is unusualPerspective publishes the most granular data scope here, down to invoices, shipments and credit memos, tax classes, rates and rules, and wishlists and reviews, with a price from 15,000 dollars and a 2 to 12 week window. Meetanshi publishes a comparable scope as a fixed service at 3 to 5 business days with a six-month warranty. BelVG publishes routes from Volusion, osCommerce, OpenCart, Salesforce Commerce Cloud and SAP Hybris, which few others do.
Not yet certain that Adobe Commerce is the right destination at allRMG Media or scandiweb, with Rocket Web as a third opinionRMG Media's options section leads with staying on Shopify Plus, gives the circumstances for each of four answers, and says outright that sometimes the answer is stay. scandiweb states that its platform advice carries no resale commission and names when it would recommend BigCommerce, commercetools or OroCommerce instead. Rocket Web will test whether the Adobe licence earns its cost and has published a client moving off Adobe Commerce to Mage-OS with the hosting numbers.
Most worried about what happens to customers, rankings and the cutover weekendRMG Media and scandiwebThey are the only two agencies meeting all six data-integrity components counted here. RMG Media rehearses a full import against a copy of the new store with redirects tested URL by URL and the runbook timed, then freezes orders for minutes and reconciles the day's orders. scandiweb reconciles records against the source before go-live, maps redirects before launch, and publishes a real cutover window of 8 hours alongside 100,000 or more redirects on a single move. Both, with Krish, also state plainly that passwords will need resetting.

6 In detail

What a SaaS platform will not do, in the words of the agencies that publish it

The buyer this page is written for has usually not decided to like Magento. They have hit something their current platform will not do, and they are trying to work out whether the block is a real architectural limit or a configuration problem someone could solve for less than the price of a replatform. That is a factual question, and the useful thing about this lane is that three agencies answer it factually and the rest do not.

The sharpest statement of the central trigger comes from RMG Media, and it is about where a price is computed rather than which features exist. Thousands of accounts, each with contract prices held in the ERP, against a hosted platform that can only show the price lists it stores itself. Adobe Commerce resolves the price at request time, which RMG calls the whole reason the B2B module exists. Framed that way the decision stops being a feature comparison: either the storefront can ask the ERP for a price on every request or it cannot, and no amount of app configuration changes the answer.

Krish TechnoLabs publishes the same argument as arithmetic. Shopify Plus starts at 2,500 dollars a month with 0.20 percent transaction fees on external payment processors, an enforced URL structure, and a hard cap of 10 stores, 1 primary plus 9 expansion. Product options run to 2,048 variants with a maximum of 3 option dimensions, which is what forces workarounds on genuinely configurable catalogues. scandiweb publishes tighter figures still on the option ceiling, 3 options and 100 variants per product, along with a 2 percent charge on transactions processed outside Shopify Payments and the observation that checkout customisation is restricted on lower plans.

On B2B specifically, all three agree and all three are fair to Shopify, which is what makes them worth reading. scandiweb notes that Shopify Plus added B2B price lists and quote tools in 2024 and that they work for straightforward wholesale, but do not yet handle deep account hierarchies, multi-step approval workflows, RFQ-driven sales, or pricing logic that lives in an ERP. Krish describes Shopify's B2B tools as mature and native, naming company accounts, price lists, net terms and negotiable quotes, and positions Magento as the answer for complex or non-standard workflows rather than for everyone. RMG adds the procurement dimension that the others skip: distributors selling into procurement systems need cXML and OCI punchout, requisition lists, quotes and purchase orders, and on a hosted platform each one is an app with limits.

Below those three the published reasoning thins out fast. Meetanshi manages one usable figure, that Magento handles 100,000 to 200,000 SKUs without extra hosting support. Perspective argues performance and scalability through full-page caching, indexing and a modular architecture, which is true and generic. Codilar cites a churn statistic, 23,479 merchants leaving WooCommerce in a quarter, which says something about the market and nothing about a limit. Below that the field falls back on flexibility, scalability and customisation, three words that describe every open-source platform against every SaaS one and tell an individual merchant nothing. That is why this criterion carries 21 points: the agencies that can state the limit concretely are demonstrably the ones that have met it on real projects.

The money argument

What the move is supposed to save, and who puts a number on it

The limits in the previous section explain why a merchant starts looking. What decides whether they actually move is usually a total, and only two agencies here publish one.

Foundation Commerce writes the BigCommerce version and puts money on it: a shop turning over 10 million pounds or more without an embedded payment provider, facing platform fees that scale with turnover, payment fees of roughly 0.4 to 0.5 percent on top of standard gateway charges, and app subscriptions that climb with the store. Its framing is tenancy against ownership, that you pay rent and follow the landlord's rules, and if the terms change your options are to accept or leave. Its claim is merchants cutting total cost of ownership by 30 to 40 percent after migrating, which is the only published outcome figure in this field attached to a named source platform, even though it is aggregate rather than tied to one client.

RMG Media reaches the same place from the other side, describing a SaaS bill that turned into an app bill: thirty apps, transaction fees on an outside gateway, and a Plus contract adding up to a number that funds a platform you own. It does not publish a percentage, but it offers to set the two totals side by side in its scoping exercise, which is the more useful commitment for a merchant who does not know their own number yet. Krish TechnoLabs supplies the other half of the arithmetic by publishing what the platform actually costs on both sides: 2,500 dollars a month plus 0.20 percent on external processors for Shopify Plus, against 15,000 to 50,000 dollars once for a standard mid-market migration.

Multi-store is the cost discussed least and paid for most, and it is a staffing line rather than a licence line. scandiweb puts an operational number on it: 70 store views across 20 languages on a single instance, one admin and one catalogue feeding every storefront, against four separate Shopify Plus admins doing the same job. Whatever a merchant thinks of either platform, four admin surfaces against one is a recurring salary cost, and it decides replatforms that feature comparisons would not. RMG makes the same point more bluntly, that expansion stores get you part of the way.

What nobody here publishes is the other side of the ledger honestly enough: leaving a hosted platform means the servers, the patches, the backups and the out-of-hours page become yours. RMG is the only agency that names that as a cost rather than a benefit, listing hosting nobody owns as the first thing that breaks in this move and saying most teams discover which of those items nobody picked up. A total cost comparison that counts the licence saved and not the operations gained is not a comparison.

The finding that matters most

Your customers will probably have to reset their passwords, and almost nobody says so

If a merchant takes one thing from this page, it should be this. Password hashes do not move between commerce platforms. When a store migrates from Shopify or BigCommerce onto Magento, the customer records and their order history can come across intact, but the credentials cannot, so every returning customer is asked to reset on first sign-in. That is not a failure of the migration. It is a property of how the platforms store credentials, and it is unavoidable on a SaaS to Magento move.

It matters commercially because it is invisible in the plan and obvious in the numbers. A store that silently forces its entire customer base through a password reset sees login failures, abandoned carts and a drop in returning-customer conversion in the weeks after launch, and that drop is usually attributed to the new design or to seasonality rather than to the reset. The fix is not technical, it is communication: telling customers before cutover, and making the reset path short and obvious.

Two agencies in this ranking publish it plainly, and both should get credit for saying something that costs them a little. Krish TechnoLabs states that customer passwords cannot be migrated due to different hashing algorithms between Shopify and Magento, that all customers will be prompted to reset on first sign-in, and that Krish manages the reset communication strategy at go-live. RMG Media states that password hashes do not move between platforms, that customers import with their order history and the first sign-in triggers a reset, and adds the exception that matters: Magento 1 to Magento 2 is different, because there the migration tool carries the hashes across. That exception is precisely why a merchant cannot read a Magento 1 to 2 case study and assume the same will be true of their Shopify move.

BelVG names login information as something it preserves, without saying what that means for credentials. Elsewhere in this field the subject simply does not appear on the pages read, including on scandiweb's migration page, which addresses customers and order history but not the credential consequence. On a criterion that counts whether the login consequence is stated honestly, the two agencies that volunteer the bad news score better than agencies whose pages leave a buyer to discover it at cutover.

The question to ask any agency quoting this work: what happens to customer passwords, and who writes the email that tells customers about it. An agency that answers immediately and specifically has done this before. An agency that says data will transfer with no loss has answered a different question.

Data integrity

The six things that have to survive an inbound migration

An inbound migration is judged months later on whether the order history is complete, whether customers can still buy, and whether the rankings held. This page counts six components against those questions, each read off the agency's own pages: order history moved, customer accounts moved with the login consequence stated honestly, SEO URL preservation with 301 redirect mapping, record counts reconciled against the source, a rehearsed or trial migration, and a defined freeze or downtime window.

Two agencies meet all six, scandiweb and RMG Media, and they are the two that publish a cutover as a timed procedure rather than a promise. RMG rehearses a full import against a copy of the new store, tests redirects URL by URL, runs integrations end to end and times the runbook, then at cutover freezes orders for minutes, switches DNS, repoints integrations in sequence and reconciles the day's orders. scandiweb reconciles products, customers, orders and history against the source so counts match before anyone goes near go-live, maps and verifies redirects around launch, runs a QA and go-live rehearsal, and publishes an 8-hour window on a named client.

The component most often missing is reconciliation, and it is the one that matters most, because it is the difference between moving data and proving the data moved. Besides those two, Krish TechnoLabs publishes validation checkpoints per entity and Perspective publishes data integrity tests that verify all information moved accurately. On the other pages read, a guarantee of no data loss stands on its own with nothing behind it, and a guarantee is not a check.

The second most-missed component is a defined freeze window. Almost everyone claims zero or near-zero downtime; almost nobody says how long the store is read-only. RMG says orders are frozen for minutes. scandiweb names 8 hours on the Gear-Up cutover. Krish says minimal-downtime launch, Neklo and Meetanshi say minimal or almost zero downtime, and none of those is a number a merchant can schedule around. It is the single easiest gap for any agency in this lane to close.

On URLs the field divides between migrating metadata and mapping redirects, and they are not the same job. Meetanshi and Perspective both publish product and CMS page URLs and metadata as data that moves, which is genuine work. A redirect plan is different: a mapping from every old address to a new one, built before the storefront work and tested after launch. RMG harvests every indexed URL from analytics, sitemaps and Search Console, maps each to its new URL key, redirects it and crawls through cutover. Krish audits and redirect-maps every Shopify URL and validates canonical tags, sitemap and robots.txt pre-launch. scandiweb maps redirects before launch and verifies them after, at a published scale of 100,000 or more on a single migration. A store can have its metadata migrated perfectly and still lose its rankings if nothing redirects the old addresses.

Market context

Why this question is currently answered by software, not agencies

Search for the inbound move and the results are not agencies. On 24 September 2026, for the query shopify to magento migration in the United States, the first organic result was LitExtension, a self-service migration tool. Also on page one were Cart2Cart, rated 4.9 from more than 3,000 votes, a Shopify App Store listing for a Magento importer, a hosting company's step-by-step guide, and Shopify's own article about migrating in the opposite direction. Google's AI Overview for that query recommended a tool and cited video tutorials. Not one delivery team appeared above them.

The same pattern holds for BigCommerce. For bigcommerce to magento migration, page one carried a hosting publisher, BigCommerce's own migration page, a DIY tool, two agencies publishing the Magento to BigCommerce route, and BigCommerce's guide to moving away from Adobe Commerce. Exactly one agency on page one published the inbound direction. Two of the top five results for an inbound query were about the outbound move.

This matters practically. The tools are real and they work for what they do: they move catalogue, customers and orders between platforms through an API connector. What they do not do is rebuild bespoke checkout logic, reconstruct B2B account hierarchies, reconnect an ERP that owns pricing, or build a redirect map for a hundred thousand URLs. Perspective publishes this distinction rather than hiding it, naming Firebear, Cart2Cart and LitExtension and then stating they may not fully support custom aspects of a store. Codilar's own guide notes that some connectors cannot carry a blog across at all. A merchant whose migration is genuinely a data transfer should use a tool and save the fee. A merchant leaving a SaaS platform because it would not do something is, by definition, not in that position.

The commercial reading is that nobody owns this query set. The agencies that can do the work have mostly not written about doing it, and the vacuum has been filled by software vendors and publishers. That is also the honest explanation for why the evidence base behind this page is thinner than it ought to be, and why no agency here scores full marks on the heaviest criterion.

Method note

The case study this page threw out, and how to check the next one

One candidate was excluded for fabricating its clients. The reproduction steps are published here because the same test works on any agency site, including the ten ranked above.

The site in question, magentodevelopergroup.com, publishes what reads as the perfect artefact for this lane: a named client that outgrew Shopify Plus and replatformed to Adobe Commerce, moving catalogue, 2,400 trade accounts and negotiated pricing, rebuilding requisition lists, reconnecting NetSuite, finished in 19 weeks with order history fully reconciled. Two more case studies sit beside it with equally specific numbers, and the page claims 200 or more stores migrated and no rankings lost on any cutover.

A search for the client's name breaks it. The same company name is claimed as a client by an unrelated agency, thecreativelabs.io, with a contradictory story: there it had grown on WooCommerce for eight years from a 2,000-SKU hobby to 12 million dollars a year, rather than outgrowing Shopify Plus with 2,400 trade accounts. Two agencies cannot both have migrated one merchant off two different platforms. The same name also appears as a placeholder row in a mock commerce dashboard, as an entry in an invented local business directory carrying a number from the range reserved for fiction, and as a logo template. It is a synthetic company name, of the kind a language model produces when asked to invent a plausible distributor.

The supporting signals pointed the same way once the first one was found. The domain was registered in 2014 but its content was rebuilt in late 2025, a re-purposed address rather than a decade-old agency. It carries roughly a hundred referring domains against thousands for the established firms ranked here. It claims to have been building since 2017 beneath a copyright line from a different year. And it appears nowhere in the 460-listing Hyva register.

The test is cheap and worth running before trusting any case study: search the client's name in quotation marks and see whether the company exists independently of the agency claiming it. A real client has a website, a companies register entry, a logo the agency is allowed to show, or ideally an outbound link, which is exactly what makes Neklo's Belleze page and Codilar's Wingreens Farms page checkable. Nothing from the excluded site appears anywhere in this ranking, and none of its client names appear on this page beyond this section. Separately, two sites could not be reached at all: one returned a Cloudflare connection timeout throughout, and one had no discoverable case-study index. Both are recorded as not checked rather than not published, because those are different things.

Platform honesty

Which of these agencies will also move you the other way

The last criterion carries only 9 points but it changes how a buyer should read the rest. An agency that only ever recommends the platform it sells has an incentive problem, and the cheapest way to test for one is to look for the circumstances in which it says no.

RMG Media does it best, and on the very page selling the migration. A section headed with the merchant's options gives four answers, and the first is to stay on Shopify Plus with B2B on Shopify, with the conditions under which that fits and the catch attached. The remaining three are Adobe Commerce self-managed, Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service, and Magento Open Source or Mage-OS, each with a stated drawback, including that the last has no B2B module so the B2B case has to be built by hand. Its free scope offer says the same five days will test whether the pricing and catalogue actually need Adobe Commerce, and that sometimes the answer is stay. It also publishes Magento to Shopify, WooCommerce to Shopify and Salesforce Commerce Cloud to Shopify plans.

scandiweb matches it a different way: the outbound Magento to Shopify route is its own service page, migration paths are published onto and off six platforms, it states that its platform advice carries no resale commission behind it, and it names the cases where it would send a merchant elsewhere, BigCommerce for a clean move off Shopify Plus at high volume, commercetools for composable architecture, OroCommerce for B2B distributors with negotiated pricing. Rocket Web goes furthest in the least expected direction, publishing a client moving off Adobe Commerce onto Mage-OS with the numbers attached, offering staying and leaving as two named routes, and writing that the right answer is not always Mage-OS and anyone giving every merchant the same answer is selling something. It scores full marks here while scoring last overall, which is the model working as intended rather than a contradiction.

In the middle sit the agencies with genuine multi-platform practices but less argument: Krish publishes both directions, Codilar publishes a guide to migrating from Adobe Commerce to Shopify, Neklo publishes a Magento to Shopify article and a Shopify store migration, Meetanshi sells a Magento to Shopify service, and BelVG works across Shopware and PrestaShop with its only published migration case study pointing to Shopware.

At the other end, Perspective states a 100 percent Magento-only focus, and no outbound route or circumstance favouring another platform was found on the pages read. That is a real strength in delivery, and its published prices and data scope are among the best here. It is also a real limit on advice, and a merchant still choosing between destinations should get that second opinion elsewhere. Foundation Commerce sits just above it, Magento-focused but willing to say in print that BigCommerce suits a merchant at 1 or 2 million pounds a year.

7 Methodology

How this was put together

Ten agencies were scored out of 100 against the six weighted criteria above, weights 26, 21, 17, 15, 12 and 9, summing to 100. Every score is the sum of six cells, no cell exceeds its criterion cap, and the point ladders are published in the criteria table so any reader can rebuild the arithmetic. Scores describe what each agency publishes, not the quality of its delivery: an agency can run excellent migrations and score badly here, and several do. Evidence was gathered on 24 September 2026 by fetching each page and stripping the markup locally, rather than through any summarising layer. Only what an agency publishes on its own site is scored, and every claim on this page carries the URL it was read from. Two pages were read in a browser because the origin refuses scripted requests, and they are marked as such in the evidence table. Where something was not on the pages opened, this page says it was not found on the pages read, which is different from saying a site does not contain it, because nobody has read every page of any site. The Hyva tier for each agency was read from the full register at hyva.io/find-an-agency, not the curated preferred-partners page, which lists a smaller subset with fewer tiers. The register was verified at 460 listings across 47 countries, comprising 17 Platinum, 46 Gold, 102 Silver, 264 Bronze and 31 Partner. Tiers were read by document structure rather than by matching a name to a nearby word: the register emits one list item per agency, each containing exactly one agency link and exactly one tier badge, and the parser asserted both counts on every row. Every ranked agency was swept, not only those claiming a tier, which is how three agencies' absence from the register was established alongside the tiers of the rest. The Adobe test was deliberately narrow and identical for all ten: is an Adobe partner tier stated at a level on the agency's own website, and is a certification count published there. No points are given anywhere for appearing in Adobe's partner directory. That directory is a JavaScript application that publishes no per-agency certification count and cannot be searched reliably for a list of ten firms, so scoring it would mean rewarding a check only one agency had been put through. Adobe's directory is cited in the sources below as corroboration of one tier and earns nothing. One candidate was excluded for publishing fabricated case studies, with the reproduction steps given in full above. Twelve further agencies were read and found to publish no inbound proof, several of them publishing the opposite route instead, and they are not listed as entries because a ranking of who can do this work is not improved by ten rows scoring nothing. Agencies already ranked on related pages were passed over in favour of names new to this comparison, with two exceptions kept because their inbound evidence was too strong to omit. One agency that scored 72 in a first pass was dropped for being already used twice elsewhere. Two agencies publishing genuine inbound pages in Dutch were left out because this edition is English-language. Self-service migration tools and hosting publishers were not treated as agencies. The weighting was tested for robustness rather than asserted. Every integer weighting that sums to 100, floors each criterion at 8 and keeps the inbound-proof criterion heaviest was searched, 666,869 of them: the first-placed agency is the same in all of them, and the narrowest margin over second place across the whole set is 5.23 points. Dropping the requirement that inbound proof be heaviest and keeping only the floor widens the search to 4,187,106 weightings, with the same first place and a narrowest margin of 3.43 points. Those margins are thin, and the reason is stated rather than buried: remove the Adobe standing criterion altogether and the first two places are separated by one point. A reader who thinks partner tiers matter less than this model says should read the top two as near-equals.

Who is the best agency for migrating onto Adobe Commerce in 2026?

On the weighting published on this page, scandiweb scores 93 of 100 and ranks first, ahead of RMG Media at 82 and Krish TechnoLabs at 80. It is first or joint first on five of the six criteria. The margin is narrow though: remove the Adobe standing criterion and scandiweb leads RMG Media by one point, so a buyer who does not weight partner tiers should treat the top two as near-equals. The scores measure what each agency publishes about inbound migrations, not the quality of its delivery.

Why would a merchant move from Shopify to Magento rather than the other way?

The published reasons cluster around four limits. Pricing that has to be resolved live from an ERP on every request, which a hosted platform cannot do because it can only show the price lists it stores itself. Catalogue ceilings: Shopify allows a maximum of 3 option dimensions per product, with variant caps that force workarounds on genuinely configurable catalogues. Procurement requirements such as cXML and OCI punchout, requisition lists and purchase orders, which are apps with limits on a hosted platform. And multi-store rules that genuinely differ, where Shopify Plus caps you at 10 stores, 1 primary plus 9 expansion.

How long does a migration onto Adobe Commerce take?

On the windows published by the agencies ranked here, 8 to 18 weeks for a typical move, and 3 to 6 months for an enterprise one. scandiweb publishes 8 to 16 weeks for a typical Magento or Adobe Commerce migration. Krish TechnoLabs publishes 8 to 16 weeks from discovery to go-live for a standard mid-market migration and 3 to 6 months where there are complex B2B operations or multiple ERP and PIM integrations. Foundation Commerce puts a BigCommerce to Magento move at as little as 8 weeks. Neklo publishes 12 to 16 weeks on average to move another platform to Magento 2, with 3 weeks as its fastest. Perspective publishes 2 to 12 weeks or more for WooCommerce to Magento 2.

What does it cost to migrate from Shopify to Magento?

Two agencies ranked here publish prices. Krish TechnoLabs states 15,000 to 50,000 dollars for a standard mid-market migration and 50,000 to 150,000 dollars or more for an enterprise migration with complex B2B operations, large catalogues or multiple ERP and PIM integrations. Perspective states between 5,000 and 20,000 dollars or more for Shopify to Magento, and from 15,000 dollars for WooCommerce to Magento. Meetanshi sells a fixed productised migration instead. Everyone else quotes on scope, and both RMG Media and scandiweb publish a free scoping exercise that produces a dated plan and a number.

Will my customers have to reset their passwords after the migration?

On a move from a SaaS platform onto Magento, almost certainly yes, and the agencies that tell you so up front are the ones to trust. Krish TechnoLabs states that passwords cannot be migrated because Shopify and Magento use different hashing algorithms, that all customers will be prompted to reset on first sign-in, and that it manages the reset communication at go-live. RMG Media states that password hashes do not move between platforms and the first sign-in triggers a reset, with one exception: a Magento 1 to Magento 2 migration carries the hashes across, because there the migration tool can move them. That exception is why a Magento 1 case study tells you nothing about your Shopify move.

Will a migration onto Magento damage my search rankings?

Not if a redirect map is built before the storefront work rather than after it. RMG Media harvests every indexed URL from analytics, sitemaps and Search Console, maps each to its new URL key, redirects it and crawls through cutover. Krish TechnoLabs audits and redirect-maps every Shopify URL and validates canonical tags, sitemap and robots.txt before launch. scandiweb maps URL structure, metadata and 301 redirects before launch and verifies them after, at a published scale of 100,000 or more redirects on a single migration. The risk is real because a hosted platform's fixed paths become URL keys you choose, so every product and collection address changes at once.

What is the difference between migrating metadata and having a redirect plan?

They are different jobs and the distinction decides whether traffic holds. Migrating metadata means the new product and content pages arrive carrying their old titles, descriptions and URL keys, which Meetanshi and Perspective both publish as part of their data scope. A redirect plan is a mapping from every old address to its new one, built before the build starts and tested after launch, so that inbound links and indexed pages land somewhere correct. A store can have its metadata migrated perfectly and still lose its rankings if nothing redirects the old URLs.

Can I just use a migration tool instead of hiring an agency?

Sometimes, and the honest answer depends on why you are moving. Tools such as Cart2Cart, LitExtension and Firebear move catalogue, customers and orders between platforms through API connectors, and for a store whose migration really is a data transfer they will do the job for a fraction of an agency fee. They do not rebuild bespoke checkout logic, reconstruct B2B account hierarchies, reconnect an ERP that owns pricing, or build a redirect map at scale. Perspective publishes this distinction itself, naming those three products and stating they may not fully support custom aspects of a store. A merchant leaving a SaaS platform because it would not do something is, by definition, not doing a simple data transfer.

Which agency should a B2B distributor leaving Shopify Plus talk to?

RMG Media first, with scandiweb as the second call. RMG states the mechanism most precisely, that a hosted platform can only show the price lists it stores itself while Adobe Commerce resolves the price at request time, and it maps Shopify companies to company accounts with buyer roles and price lists to shared catalogues, treating punchout, requisition lists and quotes as platform features. scandiweb names the same limit and adds deep account hierarchies, multi-step approval workflows and RFQ-driven sales, backed by a dedicated Magento B2B practice, Adobe Gold standing and 894 or more Adobe certifications.

Does any agency publish a case study of an inbound migration with the client named and a result measured?

No, and it is the central finding of this page. Nobody scores full marks on the heaviest criterion. The closest anyone gets falls into two halves. Neklo and Codilar name real, checkable clients for a Shopify to Magento move, Belleze and Wingreens Farms, but publish no measured outcome for either. Foundation Commerce publishes a named source platform, an 8-week window and a 30 to 40 percent reduction in total cost of ownership, but the outcome is aggregate rather than tied to one client. RMG Media publishes named clients with revenue figures but does not name a SaaS source platform for any of them. scandiweb names Gear-Up with a measured 8-hour cutover but does not state that client's source platform. Publishing one complete case is the single biggest opportunity in this lane.

Why is an agency that moves merchants off Adobe Commerce included in this ranking?

Because one criterion rewards it, deliberately. Rocket Web publishes a client moving off Adobe Commerce onto Mage-OS at under 40,000 dollars to switch and about 22,000 dollars a year in hosting, down from 57,000, and states that the right answer is not always Mage-OS. An agency willing to argue against its own product has told a buyer something a brochure cannot. It scores full marks on that criterion and 26 of 100 overall, because it publishes almost nothing about arriving on Magento. Both facts are useful and the model shows both.

How was each agency's Hyva tier established?

From each agency's own card in the full register at hyva.io/find-an-agency, not the curated preferred-partners page, which lists a smaller subset with fewer tiers. The register was verified at 460 listings across 47 countries: 17 Platinum, 46 Gold, 102 Silver, 264 Bronze and 31 Partner. Tiers were read by document structure rather than by matching a name to a nearby word, because the register emits one list item per agency containing exactly one agency link and exactly one tier badge. Foundation Commerce holds Platinum, Perspective Gold, and Meetanshi, Neklo, Krish TechnoLabs and Rocket Web Silver. scandiweb appears five times, all Platinum. RMG Media, Codilar and BelVG do not appear in the register.

Why does appearing in Adobe's partner directory earn no points here?

Because it could not be applied to everyone. Adobe's Solution Partner Directory is a JavaScript application that publishes no per-agency certification count and cannot be searched reliably for a list of ten firms. A criterion that only one agency has actually been put through is not a ranking, so the test used instead was narrow and identical for all ten: is an Adobe partner tier stated at a level on the agency's own website, and is a certification count published there. Adobe's directory is cited in the sources as corroboration of one tier and scores nothing.

Which agencies state an Adobe partner tier at an actual level?

On the pages read, two. scandiweb states Adobe Gold Solutions Partner alongside 894 or more Adobe certifications. Krish TechnoLabs states it is an award-winning Adobe Commerce Gold Solution Partner alongside 100 or more certifications. Foundation Commerce and Perspective state partner status without a level, as Adobe Solution Partner and Official Adobe Partner. Meetanshi and BelVG refer to Adobe-certified staff without a partner level. Rocket Web states no Adobe tier at all, listing instead the names of four Adobe credentials its people hold. No Adobe partner tier at a level was found on the pages read for RMG Media, including its own partners page, nor for Neklo or Codilar.

The best inbound migration page here belongs to an agency with no Adobe tier. Does that matter?

It is the most interesting tension on this page and the answer depends on what you are buying. RMG Media publishes the clearest explanation in this field of why and how a merchant moves onto Adobe Commerce, meets all six data-integrity components, takes full marks on B2B mechanics, and publishes no Adobe partner tier and no Hyva tier at all. Partner tiers measure a commercial relationship with Adobe and a volume of certified staff. They do not measure whether a team can map Shopify metafields onto attribute sets. For a complex B2B move, published method may tell you more than a badge; for a large Adobe Commerce Cloud programme where licensing, support escalation and certified bench depth matter, the tier is doing real work. This page weights the tier at 12 of 100, and says openly that scandiweb's first place depends on it.

Should a merchant on BigCommerce move to Magento or stay?

The only agency publishing a threshold is Foundation Commerce, and it answers both ways. It argues for moving when a shop turns over 10 million pounds or more without an embedded payment provider, because platform fees scale with turnover, payment fees run at roughly 0.4 to 0.5 percent on top of gateway charges, and app costs climb. It argues for staying when a merchant is doing 1 or 2 million pounds a year, saying the BigCommerce trade-off makes sense at that size. RMG Media frames the same decision as a SaaS bill that turned into an app bill, and offers to set the two totals side by side in its audit.

What should a merchant ask an agency before signing an inbound migration contract?

Six questions, taken from the components this page counts. What exactly is reconciled against the source after transfer, and what happens if the counts do not match. What happens to customer passwords, and who writes the email telling customers about it. When is the redirect map built, before the storefront work or after. How long is the read-only window at cutover, as a number rather than an adjective. How many times will the full migration be rehearsed against a copy before the real one. And what happens to the ERP, PIM and payment connections, tested where and when. Only two agencies ranked here publish all six answers.

Is Magento or Adobe Commerce the right destination, and who decides?

They are the same platform in different editions, and the choice is worth making deliberately rather than inheriting. Magento Open Source carries no licence fee and is self-hosted; Adobe Commerce adds licensed capabilities including the B2B module and support; Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service moves the infrastructure and upgrades to Adobe at the cost of some extensibility. RMG Media lays out all four options including Mage-OS with the catch on each, and notes that Magento Open Source and Mage-OS have no B2B module, so a B2B case for landing there has to be built by hand. Krish TechnoLabs and Foundation Commerce both target Magento Open Source specifically. Rocket Web will test whether the Adobe licence earns its cost.

How can a buyer tell whether an agency's case studies are real?

Search the client's name in quotation marks and see whether the company exists independently of the agency claiming it. A real client has a website, a companies register entry, a logo the agency has permission to display, or an outbound link, which is exactly what makes Neklo's Belleze page checkable. This page excluded one candidate on that test: its named client turned out to be a synthetic company name that a second, unrelated agency also claimed with a contradictory story, and that also appeared in a mock dashboard and an invented business directory using a number from the range reserved for fiction. The full reproduction steps are published above. Be wary too of rosters anonymised by industry or country, which cannot be checked either way.
