Our Process to Migrate from PrestaShop to WooCommerce
In order to migrate from PrestaShop to WooCommerce, we follow a comprehensive process to make sure that every step of the migration is streamlined and without any data loss.
Creating Backup of Existing eCommerce Store
The first step in the meticulous process is to create a backup of the existing PrestaShop eCommerce store database and other configurations. This includes a backup of all data including product images, descriptions, SKUs, prices, orders, and transaction history. This ensures that the whole process will be fast and secure.
Finalizing Design and UX
Having an optimized UI and UX is vital from the SEO performance perspective, as it directly affects your brand and sales. For each PrestaShop to WooCommerce migration project, we perform a thorough analysis of the existing PrestaShop store for any issues or shortcomings and implement the best possible solutions.
Theme and Extension Installation
WordPress hosts a plethora of apps, extensions, and themes that can greatly affect how you undergo your day-to-day business. After in-depth market research and competitor analysis, we pinpoint the best plugins and extensions for your store to match your workflow and approach against what you were used to in PrestaShop.
SEO Retention
For any migration process, it is important to ensure that all the SEO work including URLs, redirects, meta tags, meta titles, descriptions, and page titles are retained. We create an extensive directory of all the URLs and redirects before migration and then check that all those URLs are conserved and check for any broken URLs and pages.
PrestaShop to WooCommerce Migration Testing
We don't deliver any Prestashop to WooCommerce migration projects before undergoing rigorous testing at the user and integration levels. This includes sweeping testing of third-party APIs, plugins, and payment gateway integrations. Extensive test orders are placed and end-to- end workflows are mocked for real-time testing.
Going Live with the Migration
Once all the above steps are completed, we consult with the client for final approval. Once approved, we switch the existing PrestaShop store to maintenance mode and initiate the final migration. After a DNS flip and complete migration of all data the final WooCommerce website is ready to go live and over the internet.
Reasons to Migrate From PrestaShop to WooCommerce
WooCommerce is the leading eCommerce platform for more than a few reasons. From its easy customization to availability it makes it easy for businesses to achieve their goals.
Simplicity
PrestaShop is a more rigid platform than WordPress, which means that it is not as easy to customize. WordPress, on the other hand, is a more powerful solution that offers more customization options. This means that you can make any modification you dream of with WordPress, even if you need to hire a professional to ensure that the final product is perfect.
Cost-Effective in Day-to-Day Operations
Although WooCommerce and PrestaShop are both open-source platforms, there are some key differences to keep in mind. For example, while there are a number of free plugins available for both platforms, the majority of plugins are paid. On average, PrestaShop plugins tend to be more expensive than WooCommerce plugins.
Advanced Customization
Since WooCommerce is a plugin for WordPress, you can utilize a multitude of themes to enhance the UI/UX of your website. With WooCommerce you can take advantage of the vast collection of themes and plugins to build an ecosystem that is highly functional and responsive.
SEO-Friendly
For any business that wants to perform better, SEO is an integral part of its strategy. With WooCommerce you can install a number of third-party plugins to extend the functionality of your website. Plugins such as Yoast make it easy for businesses to optimize their websites.
