Migration from Magento 1to Shopify

Magento 1 to Shopify Migration Service

Why do you need to move away from Magento 1?

  • As you may have heard, Magento has announced the ‘End of Life’ for its Magento1.x version with effect from June 2020. This means no new features, no official support, and no security updates/patches will be rolled out for Magento 1.x users around the globe from June 2020 onwards.
  • The 'End of Life' countdown for Magento 1.x has officially begun. Now, you have two options; Either stick to the Magento ecosystem by upgrading from Magento 1 to Magento 2 or re-platform/ migrate to another eCommerce platform like Shopify.

Shopify as an alternative to Magento

If you have decided to move away from Magento and have chosen Shopify, you have made an excellent decision! Shopify is one of the top-rated 'hosted platforms' in the world. Many Magento stores have migrated/re-platformed from Magento 1 (Community as well as Enterprise) to Shopify/Shopify Plus, opting against the Magento 2 route for various reasons.

Here are some reasons why some retailers favor Shopify:

Shopify is quick to set up and easy to use. Shopify, being a hosted solution, maintains the server and upgrades your website at regular intervals.

24x7 customer support, community forums, Shopify University guides, and the help center are all at your disposal anytime you need help with any of Shopify’s features.

While the basic version of Shopify covers most of the useful e-commerce functionalities, you can always find a suitable app for all other features on the marketplace.

How to start the Magento 1 to Shopify Migration Plan?

Assuming that you have decided in favor of moving to Shopify / Shopify Plus, you may still have some questions before you give the go-ahead for the migration to Shopify.



Some of the most common queries we receive include:



Functionality: Will I lose any functionality or features once my site migrates to Shopify? What will be different with Shopify in comparison to what I have with Magento at the moment?


Scalability: Can Shopify handle my requirements as I scale my business?


Time: How long is the migration process from Magento 1 to Shopify?


Money: How much will it cost?


Traffic Loss: What will be the impact on traffic for the initial few weeks/months? How can I minimize traffic loss post-migration?
