Magento addresses those frustrations with more built-in functionality and a centralised approach to store management. Here are the four reasons we hear most often.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lower costs through a more consolidated setup. <\/strong>Separate content platforms, frontend services, and custom integrations add their own subscription and maintenance costs to a commercetools implementation. Magento combines more store functionality within one application, creating opportunities to retire overlapping services and reduce recurring expenses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ready-made product structures for complex catalogues. <\/strong>Magento provides configurable, bundled, grouped, virtual, and downloadable product types. Your team gets established ways to sell variants, product packages, and digital items without designing each selling model around a flexible commerce data structure.<a href=\"https:\/\/experienceleague.adobe.com\/en\/docs\/commerce-admin\/catalog\/products\/product-create?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Less architectural and integration overhead. <\/strong>A composable setup gives your team responsibility for connections between independently managed components. Magento brings more of those functions into a shared application, reducing the separate integration points needed for standard store operations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Established workflows for B2B selling. <\/strong>Adobe Commerce\u2019s B2B extension provides company accounts, shared catalogues, and negotiated pricing workflows. This offers a packaged implementation for businesses that want these processes closely connected to their commerce platform.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95651\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95651\" style=\"width: 1361px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95651\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b.webp\" alt=\"Adobe Commerce B2B\" width=\"1361\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b.webp 1361w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b-300x127.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b-1024x434.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b-768x326.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b-750x318.webp 750w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adobe-commerce-b2b-1140x483.webp 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1361px) 100vw, 1361px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95651\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Adobe Commerce B2B<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Direct control over a unified application. <\/strong>Magento Open Source and traditional Adobe Commerce deployments give your developers access to the application code. For teams that prefer extending one commerce core, this offers a more familiar development model than coordinating changes across separate services.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The practical distinction in<a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/commercetools-vs-adobe-commerce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> commercetools vs Adobe Commerce<\/a> is how your team wants to build and maintain the store. Magento offers a more consolidated foundation. The next step is to identify which data can move into that foundation and which structures need mapping.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>What Data Can You Migrate from commercetools to Magento?<\/h2>\n<p>You can migrate commercetools to Magento with core data such as products, categories, customers, and orders. Pricing, inventory, and custom data can also be transferred through appropriate mapping. Here is an overview of the data to include.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Data type<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Details to transfer<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Products<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">SKUs, names, and descriptions: Product identifiers and localised product copy.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Attributes and variants: Custom attributes, option values, and relationships between variants.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Media and assets: Product images, galleries, and associated asset links.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Categories<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Category information: Names, descriptions, and slugs.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Category hierarchy: Parent categories, subcategories, and display order.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Product assignments: Relationships between products and categories.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Customers<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Account information: Names, email addresses, and customer numbers.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Addresses: Billing and shipping addresses, including default address assignments.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Customer groups: Group definitions and customer memberships.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Orders<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Order information: Order numbers, dates, currencies, and statuses.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Line items and totals: Purchased products, SKUs, quantities, prices, discounts, taxes, and shipping charges.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Related records: Customer associations, billing and shipping addresses, and available payment or shipment references.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Prices and inventory<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Product pricing: Base prices, tier prices, currencies, and customer group pricing.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Stock information: SKUs, quantities, and supply channel assignments.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Pricing scope: Country, channel, and validity dates associated with prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Custom data<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Custom fields: Additional values attached to customers, orders, categories, and other supported resources.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Custom objects: Business-specific records and their relationships, requiring a corresponding structure in Magento.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>These records do not always have a direct equivalent in Magento, so their fields and relationships need mapping before transfer. Also, pages, blog posts, and other content stored outside commercetools must be retrieved separately from the connected CMS or frontend.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>What to Prepare Before the commercetools to Magento Migration<\/h2>\n<p>Before you migrate commercetools to Magento, a clear picture of your current setup helps prevent gaps later. Your data, storefront, and integrations may span several systems, so each needs a place in the preparation plan.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95653\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95653\" style=\"width: 2108px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95653\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-scaled.webp\" alt=\"What to Prepare Before comercetools to Magento\" width=\"2108\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-scaled.webp 2108w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-247x300.webp 247w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-843x1024.webp 843w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-768x932.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-1265x1536.webp 1265w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-1687x2048.webp 1687w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-750x911.webp 750w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-checklist-1140x1384.webp 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2108px) 100vw, 2108px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95653\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What to Prepare Before comercetools to Magento<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>1. Audit and export your source data<\/h3>\n<p>Your starting point is the data behind your store. Products, customers, and orders may sit in commercetools, but content, invoices, and media could live in your CMS, ERP, or other connected services.<\/p>\n<p>The preparation checklist includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Source exports: <\/strong>Dated copies of relevant records in CSV or JSON, with API extraction for additional data.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data cleanup: <\/strong>Duplicate SKUs, incomplete records, and test data flagged for correction or exclusion.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Structure documentation: <\/strong>Product Types, attributes, Custom Fields, and Custom Objects recorded for later mapping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Commercetools supports CSV and JSON exports through the Merchant Center. An untouched copy of those exports provides a reference before cleanup begins.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Define your Magento target architecture<\/h3>\n<p>With your source data documented, attention shifts to its destination. Your Magento edition, storefront approach, and extensions determine which structures and features need to be ready before import.<\/p>\n<p>The main decisions are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Edition and infrastructure: <\/strong>Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce, with a confirmed hosting and deployment model.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Feature replacements: <\/strong>Current services matched to Magento functionality, compatible extensions, or custom development.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Storefront approach: <\/strong>A theme-based or headless storefront, with the required development work identified.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Staging environment: <\/strong>A separate Magento environment for testing imports and checkout behaviour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Together, these decisions establish what the new store will support and highlight functionality that still needs building.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Plan integrations and business workflows<\/h3>\n<p>The target architecture also shapes how Magento connects to your other systems. Your ERP, for example, may remain responsible for inventory after the commerce platform changes.<\/p>\n<p>Each connection needs clear requirements for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Data ownership: <\/strong>The authoritative source for products, prices, stock, customers, and orders.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Synchronisation: <\/strong>Update direction, frequency, authentication, and error handling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Business workflows: <\/strong>B2B purchasing, customer-specific pricing, and multi-store operations that must continue after launch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Adobe Commerce supports API and event-based integration approaches. Its advanced B2B capabilities require the appropriate extension and licensing, which belong in the target architecture plan.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Prepare your SEO and cutover strategy<\/h3>\n<p>The final preparation area is the switch to the live Magento store. New orders, registrations, and inventory updates may arrive during migration, making the initial export outdated before launch.<\/p>\n<p>Your cutover plan should cover:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>URL mapping: <\/strong>Existing product, category, and content URLs, with 301 redirects for addresses that change.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Delta transfer: <\/strong>A process for capturing new and updated records before the switch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recovery points: <\/strong>Target backups and a documented rollback procedure.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Launch responsibilities: <\/strong>The final update window, approval owners, and timing for switching integrations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With these preparations documented, the migration can move into execution, starting with a confirmed scope and the technical setup of both stores.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>How to Migrate commercetools to Magento Step by Step<\/h2>\n<p>To migrate commercetools to Magento, the process moves from scope confirmation and store setup to data mapping, testing, and the full transfer. The seven steps below explain how to carry out the migration and check the results before launch.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95652\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95652\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95652\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic.webp\" alt=\"Steps to migrate commercetols to Magento\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1072\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic.webp 1500w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-300x214.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-1024x732.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-768x549.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-120x86.webp 120w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-350x250.webp 350w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-750x536.webp 750w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/commercetools-to-magento-infographic-1140x815.webp 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95652\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Steps to migrate commercetols to Magento<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 1. Define the migration scope<\/h3>\n<p>Your preparation audit now becomes a confirmed list of records and requirements. The scope should specify which entities will move, which systems supply them, and which records will remain archived.<\/p>\n<p>The key decisions include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Data selection: <\/strong>Products, categories, customers, orders, and additional records included in the transfer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Historical coverage: <\/strong>All order history or a defined date range.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Custom requirements: <\/strong>Additional attributes, custom fields, original order numbers, and relationships that must be retained.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Acceptance criteria: <\/strong>Expected record counts and the checks required for approval.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For example, a three-year order migration may also require older customer records associated with those orders. Those dependencies belong in the scope before extraction begins.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2. Prepare the source and target stores<\/h3>\n<p>With the scope confirmed, both environments need the access and configuration required for the transfer.<\/p>\n<p>On the commercetools side, a dedicated API client provides access to the agreed resources. Its OAuth scopes should grant the permissions needed to read those records, with the correct project key and regional endpoints configured.<\/p>\n<p>On the Magento side, the staging store needs its websites, store views, currencies, attribute sets, and inventory sources configured. Required extensions and custom fields should also be installed before importing data.<\/p>\n<p>A connection test should confirm that the migration process can retrieve source records and write to the target environment. Backups provide a recovery point before the first import.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3. Configure data mapping<\/h3>\n<p>Once both stores are accessible, mapping determines how each commercetools record will be represented in Magento. Matching field names alone is insufficient because the platforms organise products, prices, and customer data differently.<\/p>\n<p>Typical mapping rules include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Product structure: <\/strong>Commercetools Product Types mapped to Magento attribute sets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Variants: <\/strong>Variant SKUs and option values organised into Magento simple and configurable products where appropriate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Market configuration: <\/strong>Localised content, channel-specific prices, and inventory assignments mapped to the target store structure.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer and order relationships: <\/strong>Customer groups, order statuses, and source identifiers linked to their Magento equivalents.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For a T-shirt with size and colour variants, the target structure might use one configurable product linked to individual simple products. Magento\u2019s configurable-product import requires the corresponding attributes and product associations.<\/p>\n<p>This is where expert handling can reduce manual work. With our All-in-One Migration Service, we assess your requirements and configure custom data mapping as part of the agreed migration scope.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cta-detail\">\n<div>\n<p class=\"title\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 28px;\">Let Our Experts Handle Your Store Migration!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"cta-desc\">With the All-in-One Migration Service, our experts take care of everything, ensuring a seamless and stress-free migration.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn-frame\" href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/migration-services\/all-in-one-data-migration-service.htmlhttps:\/\/litextension.com\/migration-services\/all-in-one-data-migration-service.html?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=display&amp;utm_campaign=ctabox&amp;utm_term=aurora&amp;utm_content=migratecommercetoolstomagento\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BOOK FREE CONSULTATION<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-78213\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/2-08-1.png\" alt=\"All-in-One Migration Service\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Step 4. Run a demo migration<\/h3>\n<p>The mapping rules should first be tested on a representative sample. A useful demo includes complex variants, custom attributes, multiple addresses, and orders with discounts or different statuses.<\/p>\n<p>The review should cover:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Product presentation: <\/strong>Images, descriptions, options, and category placement.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data relationships: <\/strong>Variant associations and customer order history.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Financial accuracy: <\/strong>Prices, currencies, discounts, taxes, and historical totals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Any discrepancies need resolving in the mapping or transformation rules before the full transfer. A successful demo should demonstrate that the migration handles your complex records as well as straightforward ones.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5. Perform the full migration<\/h3>\n<p>After the demo is approved, the full transfer can follow the validated rules. Records should move in dependency order so related entities can be linked correctly.<\/p>\n<p>The migration process needs logs for completed, skipped, and failed records. Retries should use consistent source-to-target identifiers to prevent duplicate entries.<\/p>\n<p>Historical orders require a dedicated migration workflow because Magento\u2019s standard Admin import covers entities such as products and customers, rather than orders.<a href=\"https:\/\/experienceleague.adobe.com\/en\/docs\/commerce-admin\/systems\/data-transfer\/import\/data-import?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Your source store can continue receiving activity under the agreed migration plan. A recorded extraction cutoff identifies which new or updated records need transferring before launch.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 6. Verify the migrated data<\/h3>\n<p>When the transfer finishes, reconciliation compares the Magento results against the agreed source dataset. Record counts provide the first check, followed by field-level and relationship checks.<\/p>\n<p>The main validation areas are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Catalogue accuracy: <\/strong>SKUs, attributes, variants, images, and category assignments.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer accuracy: <\/strong>Account details, addresses, groups, and order associations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Order accuracy: <\/strong>Line items, dates, statuses, currencies, and totals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Store behaviour: <\/strong>Product visibility, search, pricing, stock availability, and checkout.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Magento\u2019s indexers must also process the imported data so catalogue changes are reflected correctly.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 7. Complete post-migration checks<\/h3>\n<p>The final stage brings Magento up to date and confirms that the live store works as intended. New and changed records since the extraction cutoff need transferring and reconciling before the switch.<\/p>\n<p>The launch checklist includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Final data updates: <\/strong>Recent orders, registrations, and relevant product or inventory changes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>SEO continuity: <\/strong>Redirects, canonical URLs, sitemap availability, and production indexing settings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Integration handover:<\/strong> ERP, payment, shipping, and other connections operating against Magento.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Production testing: <\/strong>Customer login, a test purchase, transactional emails, and order processing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Post-launch monitoring should track migration discrepancies and integration errors. The source exports and rollback resources should remain available until the new store has passed the agreed checks.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>How Much Does commercetools to Magento Migration Cost?<\/h2>\n<p>The cost to migrate commercetools to Magento can range from $15,000 to $250,000 for a project that includes store development and integrations. Complex enterprise projects can exceed $250,000. These figures are planning estimates based on broader replatforming benchmarks, rather than fixed prices for this migration route.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Project scope<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Indicative budget (USD)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What the project involves<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Limited rebuild<\/td>\n<td>$15,000\u2013$50,000<\/td>\n<td>A single storefront, straightforward catalogue, standard functionality, and minimal integration work.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mid-market replatforming<\/td>\n<td>$80,000\u2013$250,000<\/td>\n<td>Custom data mapping, storefront development, multiple integrations, and more extensive testing.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Complex enterprise migration<\/td>\n<td>$250,000\u2013$600,000+<\/td>\n<td>B2B workflows, multiple storefronts, extensive customisation, and complex ERP or other system integrations.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>These bands reflect general project-complexity benchmarks. A commercetools store with multiple connected services should be assessed against its actual architecture, rather than product count alone.<\/p>\n<p>Data migration alone is a smaller, separately quoted scope. If your Magento storefront and integrations are already ready, your quote should cover extraction, mapping, testing, transfer, and validation.

With LitExtension, you can migrate commercetools to Magento with no downtime during the data migration. Your source store remains live and continues accepting orders as we transfer your data. Any storefront deployment or domain switch should be coordinated separately as part of your launch plan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details open=\"\">\n<summary>What data can I migrate from commercetools to Magento?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p>Products, variants, categories, customers, addresses, and order history can be migrated, alongside pricing, inventory, and custom fields through appropriate mapping. Content stored in a separate CMS needs its own extraction process. Storefront design, application code, and integrations require separate implementation work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details open=\"\">\n<summary>Can I migrate customer passwords?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p>Customer passwords cannot simply be exported from commercetools and imported into Magento. The commercetools customer API returns a masked password value, rather than a reusable credential. A password-reset process is the straightforward approach for accounts managed by commercetools. Accounts using an external identity provider need a separate authentication integration assessment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details open=\"\">\n<summary>Do I need to rebuild my frontend after migrating?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p>Your frontend needs adaptation, but a complete rebuild is not always necessary. An existing headless storefront may retain its design and reusable components. However, its product queries, customer authentication, cart, and checkout connections must be adapted to Magento\u2019s APIs. A move to a Magento theme requires rebuilding the storefront within that theme\u2019s structure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details open=\"\">\n<summary>Should I choose Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p>Magento Open Source suits businesses seeking core commerce functionality without a platform licence fee. Your team remains responsible for hosting, maintenance, and additional extensions. Adobe Commerce is worth considering when you need commercial capabilities and Adobe support.<\/p>\n<p>For complex B2B selling, its separately licensed B2B extension provides company accounts, shared catalogues, and negotiated quotes. The decision should reflect your required features and total running costs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>To migrate commercetools to Magento successfully, your data needs to arrive with its structure and relationships intact.
