Adobe Commerce to Shopify Migration

Adobe Commerce is losing ground. The majority of brands have already moved off Magento, and the ones still on it are paying more every year for a platform Adobe is no longer prioritizing. Shopify is where they go.

Magento and Adobe Commerce migrations delivered

Shero's Magento migration practice covers M1, Magento 2 Open Source, and Adobe Commerce. The methodology is built from 40+ migrations across DTC, B2B, and enterprise operations.

$3.3K-$15K

Adobe Commerce Cloud monthly licensing cost

Adobe Commerce licensing runs $40,000 to $190,000 a year, with the total cost of ownership typically two to three times that. Shopify Plus starts at $2,300 a month. For mid-market brands, the functionality gap is small, and the cost gap pays for the migration in year one.

14-22

weeks for a typical Adobe Commerce migration

Adobe Commerce migrations run 14-22 weeks depending on B2B complexity, Experience Cloud scope, and ERP integration depth. ERP rebuilds are the longest workstream. The Shopify ERP integration page covers what that rebuild involves.

Working with Shero has been an outstanding experience. Their team is highly skilled and easy to work with.

What an Adobe Commerce to Shopify migration covers

Adobe Commerce is the paid enterprise edition of Magento 2, featuring B2B tools, AI merchandising, and Adobe Experience Cloud integration. Its latest version is 2.4.8-p4 (March 2026). Adobe is actively transitioning customers toward Adobe Commerce Cloud Services (ACCS), a SaaS architecture. Shero migrates Adobe Commerce stores to Shopify Plus including B2B configuration, ERP integration rebuilds, Adobe Experience Cloud connection assessment, and full SEO protection.

Why Adobe Commerce brands choose Shero to migrate to Shopify Plus

Adobe Commerce / Magento gets expensive and slow to change. Hosting, maintenance, and licensing costs increase every year. Simple version upgrades take weeks, and Adobe's Commerce Cloud is priced at $40,000 to $190,000 per year on average. Most agencies pitching the move have no experience with the platform they are migrating you off of.

Shero has 16 years of experience with Magento and Adobe Commerce, has delivered 40+ Magento-to-Shopify migrations, and scopes every rebuild in discovery before code is written.

01

Adobe Commerce B2B maps cleanly to Shopify Plus B2B

Adobe Commerce B2B covers company accounts, shared catalogs, requisition lists, custom pricing, and payment terms. Shopify Plus covers the same core capabilities natively. Shero maps each feature to its Shopify Plus equivalent in discovery, identifies gaps requiring custom work, and prices the rebuild before any development begins.

02

Adobe Experience Cloud integrations need separate assessment

Adobe Commerce brands often have Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, and Adobe Campaign integrations. Some continue on Shopify with connectors. Others need replacing with Shopify-native equivalents. Shero assesses each Experience Cloud integration in discovery and provides a clear continuity versus replacement recommendation before any build begins.

03

Adobe Commerce Cloud is the alternative, not the default

Adobe is pushing customers toward Adobe Commerce Cloud, a SaaS architecture requiring enterprise licensing above $15,000 per month. For brands below that scale, Shopify Plus delivers comparable capabilities at lower cost and less development overhead. Shero builds the cost comparison in discovery. The Magento 2 migration page covers the full context.

04

AI merchandising requires like-for-like evaluation

Adobe Commerce includes AI-powered product recommendations, Live Search, and catalog service capabilities. Shopify has Shopify Search and Discovery plus third-party AI merchandising apps. Shero evaluates which Adobe Commerce AI features your business actively uses and identifies appropriate Shopify equivalents before the migration scope is finalised so no capability gap is discovered after go-live.

05

ERP integrations built for Adobe Commerce need full rebuilds

Adobe Commerce ERP integrations often involve middleware and custom API layers more sophisticated than standard Magento 2 connections. All must be rebuilt for Shopify's API. Shero scopes the ERP rebuild in week one so the integration timeline is explicit from the start and does not extend the migration unexpectedly.

06

Transaction fee savings at high volume often justify Shopify Plus migration

At $5M or more in annual revenue, the transaction fee difference between Adobe Commerce and Shopify Plus saves $15,000 to $25,000 per year. Combined with lower infrastructure costs and faster development cycles, total cost of ownership typically favours Shopify Plus within year one. Shero models this during the migration discovery session.

How Shero migrates from Adobe Commerce to Shopify Plus

01

Adobe Commerce audit

Audit version, licensing model, B2B configuration, Experience Cloud integrations, and every active custom extension. Adobe Commerce stores often have AI merchandising and Experience Cloud connections that require explicit assessment before scope is agreed.

02

Build vs replace decisions

Decide for each Adobe Commerce feature whether to use a Shopify-native capability, an App Store app, or a custom build. Adobe Commerce B2B and AI merchandising tools each have a distinct Shopify Plus equivalent that must be mapped before development begins.

03

Data migration

Migrate products, B2B accounts, customers, and orders with full validation. Adobe Commerce catalog and B2B data structures differ from standard Magento 2. Mapping errors post-import are expensive once redirects are live.

04

Theme and integration build

Build the Shopify Plus theme and rebuild ERP, OMS, and Adobe Experience Cloud integrations. Experience Cloud connections are assessed individually: some continue through connectors, others need Shopify-native replacements.

05

B2B configuration

Configure Shopify Plus company accounts, price lists, and buyer portals to match the Adobe Commerce B2B workflow. Every B2B feature is mapped to its Shopify Plus equivalent before configuration begins.

06

Go-live and monitoring

Run the pre-launch checklist. Monitor organic traffic, Experience Cloud integration health, B2B order flow, and checkout daily for 90 days. Adobe Commerce migrations typically have higher post-launch monitoring complexity than standard Magento migrations.
