How do I migrate from PrestaShop or Shopify to Magento for the French market?

Both are common starting points in France — PrestaShop is French-founded (Paris, 2007) and dominant in the FR €100k–€5M segment, while Shopify wins early-stage DTC. Migration triggers are usually B2B requirements, multi-store needs, or Cartes Bancaires limitations.

• PrestaShop → Magento — same data shape (products, customers, orders), straightforward CSV / DB-level migration. PrestaShop modules don’t port; we rebuild the FR-specific ones (CB, Mondial Relay, Colissimo) on Magento. Typical timeline 4–8 weeks.
• Shopify → Magento — export via Shopify Admin API, transform into Magento catalog_product + customer entities. Pay attention to: variants ↔ configurables, Shopify Payments → CB-enabled PSP, app subscriptions cancelled. Typical timeline 6–12 weeks.

For both: 301-redirect every URL to preserve SEO ranking, preserve customer passwords via a one-shot hash-rewrap on first login, and preserve order history by importing as historical orders.
