What running Magento 2 starts to feel like
Hosting is a second job
Servers, caching, search and uptime need constant attention, whether you do it yourself or pay someone to.
Patch and upgrade cycles
Security patches and version upgrades arrive on a schedule, and each one is a project with testing.
Extension conflicts
Modules clash, lag behind releases or get abandoned by their authors, and you are left maintaining them.
Developer hours add up
Small changes need a Magento developer, and the cost of keeping the store alive crowds out improvement work.
Speed fights you
Heavy themes and extensions drag performance down, and keeping it fast is an ongoing effort.
Standard B2B at custom prices
You paid to build company accounts and customer pricing that B2B Edition offers natively.
What you stop paying extensions and developers for
Hosting, scaling and security
Infrastructure, security patching and scaling are handled by the platform instead of by your team.
B2B Edition
Company accounts, custom pricing and quoting are native, so there is less custom code to write and maintain.
Fewer extensions to babysit
Common needs that were Magento extensions are often built in, so your add-on list gets shorter.
API-first integrations
Your ERP, OMS and marketing tools connect through BigCommerce's APIs and app marketplace.
No upgrade projects
The platform is updated for you, so your developer hours go to improvements instead of keeping the lights on.
How we move a Magento 2 store to BigCommerce
Your Magento store keeps selling until the day we switch DNS.
- 1
Audit extensions and data
Every module, custom feature, integration and data set, with a verdict for each: native, app, custom or dropped.
- 2
Design the BigCommerce build
A Stencil theme, app selection and a plan for reshaping attributes and product types.
- 3
Rehearse the data migration
Test migrations on a copy of the store, with counts, totals and edge cases compared against live.

Map and test redirects
Every Magento URL mapped to its new address, keeping old URLs where BigCommerce allows.
- 5
Cut over and monitor
A timed go-live, then close watch on rankings, errors and orders.

Three questions we ask every Magento store
What do your extensions actually do?
We list every module and the job it does for the business. Many have a native BigCommerce answer, some need an app, and a few need real development.
How complex is your catalog?
Heavy configurable, bundled or multi-source inventory setups get a design check first, to confirm BigCommerce can hold them without ugly compromises.
Who runs it afterward?
A lean marketing team usually does well on BigCommerce. If you have in-house Magento engineers who value the control, staying may be the better call.
Curious how much of your Magento store maps over?
Share your extension list and a rough catalog size. We will tell you what is native, what needs an app and what would take custom work.
Talk to usFrequently asked questions
Will we lose the custom features our Magento extensions gave us?
We audit every extension and map each one to a BigCommerce app, a native feature or custom API-driven development. Anything we suggest dropping is agreed with you first.
Can our Magento 2 B2B setup move to B2B Edition?
In many cases yes, since B2B Edition covers company accounts, custom pricing and quoting. Very bespoke approval flows may need custom work. We map your requirements during scoping.
Will our SEO survive the move?
BigCommerce lets you set custom URLs, so many Magento addresses can be kept exactly. We redirect the rest with 301s, carry over metadata and structured data, and monitor rankings after launch.
What about our custom Magento theme?
It is rebuilt as a Stencil theme that matches your design, instead of forcing you into a generic template.
Is BigCommerce the right choice, or Shopify?
Both reduce upkeep. BigCommerce has more built in and flexible URLs. Shopify has a bigger app and developer ecosystem. We recommend based on your catalog, B2B needs and team.
How long does it take and what does it cost?
Timing depends on catalog size and how many extensions need mapping, so we scope it after an audit. We work hourly, from $90/hr depending on the plan you choose.
