Can you migrate from Shopify / WooCommerce / Magento 1 to Magento 2.4.9?

Yes, we run all three migrations regularly for Bengaluru D2C merchants. Shopify Plus → Magento 2.4.9 takes 6-10 weeks (Magento’s Data Migration Tool for products / orders / customers, custom scripts for Shopify metafields, sections, and app-specific data like Bold / Recharge subscriptions). Common driver: Shopify’s 2% transaction fee on non-Shopify-Payments routes kills D2C margins at ₹30Cr+ ARR, Magento + Razorpay-direct removes that toll. WooCommerce → Magento 2.4.9 takes 4-8 weeks (cleaner because both are PHP/MySQL, we map wp_posts → catalog_product_entity directly). Common driver: WooCommerce can’t scale past ~₹5Cr GMV/month without painful caching workarounds. Magento 1 → Magento 2.4.9 takes 8-14 weeks, this is the trickiest because of extension-compat and theme rewrite. We use Magento DMT + custom data scripts + Hyvä theme on the front (rather than a 1:1 theme port). Hosting: AWS Mumbai (ap-south-1) is default for Bengaluru, ~30ms ping. Alternatives: Hyvä Cloud (managed), CtrlS Bengaluru, NxtGen Bengaluru. URL preservation (301 redirects) is critical, we map every old URL to keep Google ranking equity intact through the migration.
