Migrate to BigCommerce
Open APIs and B2B catalog logic — without an enterprise license to get there.
Start a projectBigCommerce usually enters the conversation once a brand has outgrown standard Shopify but doesn’t want to pay Adobe Commerce’s licensing tier to get open APIs and real B2B catalog logic. The platform decision is often right. What goes wrong is the move itself — customer groups collapsed into a single tier, price lists that don’t map cleanly, a URL structure that changes and quietly drops rankings nobody was watching.
We migrate BigCommerce the way we run every replatform: crawl the existing site and map a 301 for every indexed URL before anything moves, migrate the catalog and reconcile it product for product against the source, and map every customer group and price list to BigCommerce’s native B2B structures. Then we stage the storefront, test it with real orders, and stay through the weeks after launch — watching rankings, crawl errors, and revenue daily — because that’s when a migration actually reveals what was missed.
Built and run, end to end.
BigCommerce vs. the alternatives
BigCommerce earns its place when you need open APIs, native multi-storefront, and B2B catalog logic without Adobe Commerce's licensing tier. We scope your catalog, checkout customization, and B2B requirements against what BigCommerce actually supports — and say so plainly if Shopify Plus or Adobe Commerce fits better.
B2B catalog and price-list migration
Customer groups, tiered and contract pricing, and multi-storefront catalogs are usually the reason a brand is moving at all. We map every price list and customer group to BigCommerce's native structures and reconcile the migrated catalog against the source, product for product.
Redirect mapping for BigCommerce URLs
BigCommerce's URL and category structure won't match your old platform's. We crawl the existing site, map a 301 for every indexed URL, and confirm the new store crawls clean before cutover — so the migration doesn't quietly cost you the rankings that took years to earn.
Integrations re-wired
ERP, 3PL, tax, payment gateways, and marketing pixels all have to reconnect on the other side. We inventory the old store's integration surface, stand up the BigCommerce equivalents, and test them against real orders before the store goes live.
Questions, answered.
Why BigCommerce over Shopify?
Open APIs, native multi-storefront, and B2B catalog logic — customer groups, price lists, quotes — that Shopify still charges Plus-tier prices for. If your catalog and checkout needs are straightforward, Shopify may still be the simpler call. We scope against your actual requirements before recommending either.
Does BigCommerce really match Shopify Plus for B2B?
For customer groups, tiered pricing, and multi-storefront catalogs, yes — BigCommerce supports it natively where Shopify requires Plus or a third-party app. Where it falls short is deep checkout customization; if that's what you need, we'll tell you before you commit to the migration.
What happens to my SEO in a BigCommerce migration?
The same discipline as every migration we run: full crawl of the existing site, a 301 mapped for every indexed URL, and metadata carried over before cutover. Rankings get tracked daily through the switch, because that's when a missed redirect actually costs you traffic.
How long does a BigCommerce migration take?
Most mid-market catalogs run two to three months — data and price-list migration, storefront build, integration work, then a tight cutover. B2B complexity and integration count move that number more than catalog size does. We scope it honestly up front.
