Migration from Magento to PrestaShop

PLATFORM MIGRATION | Magento to PrestaShop

Magento offers powerful enterprise features, but its complexity, high infrastructure costs, and heavy technical requirements may not suit every business in the long run. Migrating to PrestaShop allows businesses to retain open-source flexibility while simplifying management, lowering operational costs, and still supporting advanced e-commerce capabilities for B2C and B2B sales.

Magento – powerful, but resource-heavy

Magento provides maximum flexibility for complex e-commerce operations, but maintaining the platform often requires a large technical team, dedicated infrastructure, and high development costs, which may not fit smaller or mid-sized businesses long-term.

Advantages of Magento:

  • highly customizable open-source architecture,
  • robust B2B, B2C, and multi-store support,
  • complex pricing, segmentation, and promotions,
  • deep ERP and CRM integrations.

Disadvantages of Magento:

  • high development, infrastructure, and maintenance costs,
  • complex server management and deployment,
  • requires experienced technical teams or agencies,
  • resource-intensive for long-term growth.

PrestaShop – open-source flexibility with simpler management

PrestaShop offers open-source freedom while being more lightweight and easier to manage than Magento. It supports multi-language, multi-currency, and B2B functionality, while requiring fewer technical resources and lower operating costs.

Advantages of PrestaShop:

  • fully open-source with complete code access,
  • simpler and more affordable technical management,
  • large module marketplace for feature expansion,
  • strong multi-language and multi-currency support.

Disadvantages of PrestaShop:

  • advanced features may still require development work,
  • self-managed hosting, security, and updates,
  • plugin conflicts may occur with larger setups.

Why migrate your store from Magento to PrestaShop?

Migration to PrestaShop makes sense if:

  • you want to lower infrastructure and maintenance costs,
  • you no longer require complex enterprise-level functionality,
  • you want open-source freedom with easier management,
  • you need strong B2C and growing B2B capabilities with fewer technical burdens.

PrestaShop is ideal for businesses looking for open-source flexibility, reduced complexity, and scalable e-commerce without the heavy demands of enterprise-level infrastructure.
