Why merchants are leaving Magento now

The push rarely comes from Magento being bad software — it's cost. Adobe Commerce enterprise licensing has climbed sharply in recent years, and Magento typically needs a heavier hosting stack (Elasticsearch, Redis, Varnish) to perform well at scale than Shopware does. Magento 1 stores are already unsupported, which adds urgency for anyone still on it.

Catalog complexity is the other driver: Magento's data model is deep, and merchants who built years of custom modules, attribute sets, and B2B pricing logic on top of it want that same depth without the ongoing infrastructure bill. Shopware's B2B Suite has closed most of that functional gap.

Where catalog, SEO, and URLs actually differ

Magento's category and URL-rewrite structure doesn't map one-to-one onto Shopware's — every existing URL needs an explicit 301 redirect to its Shopware equivalent, and product/category metadata has to be carried across deliberately rather than assumed. Skip this step and you're looking at a real ranking loss, not just a brief re-crawl dip.

Custom Magento modules and B2B pricing rules need the same deliberate treatment: each one gets checked against a Shopware Store equivalent or scoped for a custom plugin during discovery, so nothing gets discovered missing after the old store is already offline.

What's included

Magento 1/2 catalog, customer, and order export mapped onto Shopware 6's structure
URL mapping and 301 redirects to preserve existing SEO rankings
B2B pricing rule and customer group migration where Magento logic has a Shopware B2B Suite equivalent
ERP/PIM integration re-pointed to Shopware's API instead of Magento's
Custom Magento module audit — replaced with Shopware plugins or Store equivalents
Parallel staging environment so the new store is tested before go-live, not after
How we work

How a magento to shopware project runs

01

Discovery

Audit your Magento catalog, integrations, and custom modules to scope what actually needs rebuilding on Shopware.

02

Data mapping

Map Magento's product, customer, and order structure onto Shopware 6's data model, flagging anything that doesn't translate directly.

03

Build & migrate

Build the Shopware storefront and integrations while running the data migration in staging alongside your live Magento store.

04

Cut over & verify

Freeze window for final sync, redirect mapping goes live, and we verify orders, accounts, and search rankings post-launch.

Why us

Why work with us on magento to shopware

301 redirects mapped before cutover, not after

Every Magento URL gets an explicit mapping to its Shopware equivalent so search rankings dip briefly during re-crawl, not permanently.

B2B pricing logic checked against Shopware's Suite

We compare your actual Magento pricing rules to Shopware's B2B Suite during discovery instead of assuming feature parity.

Custom Magento modules audited one by one

Every custom module gets a Store-equivalent check or a scoped custom plugin, so nothing goes missing mid-migration.

Parallel staging against real Magento data

The new Shopware store is tested with your actual catalog and orders before go-live, not a demo data set.

FAQ

Questions about magento to shopware

Not if it's done properly — every old Magento URL gets a 301 redirect to its Shopware equivalent, and product/category metadata carries over. Expect a brief dip during re-crawl, not a permanent loss.
