Magento to Shopware Migration: A 3-Step Automated Guide

To start your automated migration from Magento to Shopware using LitExtension migration tool:

  • Access the web address of the LitExtension app.
  • Sign up using your email, or connect via Google for instant access.
  • If you already have an account, simply enter your email and password to login.
Check the “Remember Me” box to speed up your next login.

Step 1: Set Up Source & Target Carts

The first step is to connect the LitExtension data migration system with Magento and Shopware, so that the system will have access to data from these two platforms for migration purposes.

On the Migration Page screen, select Create New Migration.

1.1. Set Up Source Cart

Source Cart Setup

In Source Cart Setup section, select Magento as your Source Cart from the drop-down menu and enter your Source Cart URL.

Each cart type requires different information, which will be shown once you select your Source Cart. There are three ways to connect your store:

  • Install Connector for open-source carts.
  • Provide API Keys for hosted carts.
  • Import CSV Files if your store has crashed, you have security concerns, face technical issues, or use a cloud server.

1.2. Setup Target Cart

Target Cart Setup

In Target Cart Setup section, select Shopware as your Target Cart from the drop-down menu and enter your Target Cart URL.

Follow the same process in the Source Cart Setup section to connect LitExtension to your Shopware store using a Connector, API, or CSV file.

Step 2: Configure Magento to Shopware Migration

After connecting to Source (Magento) and Target Carts (Shopware), the next step is to select the data you want to migrate.

You can also enable additional options to enhance performance and SEO for your Shopware store.

Entities Selection

Entities Selection Page

In Entities To Migrate section, select the entities you want to migrate.

For the Magento to Shopware pair, the entities you can migrate are:

  • Products
  • Product Categories
  • Customers
  • Orders
  • Coupons
  • CMS Pages
  • Blog

Or click Select All to transfer everything.

For data you want to migrate that is not listed here, please contact LitExtension experts so we can assist and advise on alternative solutions.

Additional Options

After selecting your data, configure the Additional Options section. Common choices include:

  • Clear target cart data before migration: This option allows you to delete the data (on the Target Store) in accordance with selected entities for migration. It is to avoid mixing and duplication of data during the migration process.
  • Preserve IDs for products, customers, and orders: With this option, the IDs of your product, customer and order will be kept the same in your Target Store just as in your Source Store. This option is necessary to keep the connection among entities after the migration. Besides that, it helps you manage your Products, Customers and Orders easily.
  • Create 301 Redirects from source to target cart: The 301 Redirects option allows you to automatically redirect your old store’s Product and Category URLs to the new ones during the migration. This ensures that your previous links continue to work, helping to maintain a smooth customer experience after replatforming.
  • Strip HTML tags from category and product names: Categories, product names in your Source store may already wear HTML tags. However, these tags might have been configured improperly or your new store does not need them anymore.

If you need to answer questions about additional options, you can contact live chat for free consultation.

Step 3: Perform Magento to Shopware Migration

After selecting the data to migrate to Shopware and configuring additional options, continue with the Full Migration.

If you need a demo to see if the data is moving correctly, choose Demo Migration. You can learn more about the benefits of using Demo Migration and how to implement it through our detailed step-by-step guide.

Otherwise, simply tick Skip Demo Migration and click Start Full Migration to begin.

Full Migration

The migration process may take a few minutes or longer depending on the number of entities being transferred. LitExtension runs on a cloud-based system, you don’t need to keep your browser or internet connection active during the migration. Additionally, you can easily check the migration progress through the Migration progress section.

Before starting, you’ll be asked to complete the payment. LitExtension supports multiple payment methods, including PayPal, Skrill, Western Union, Bank Transfer, and Cryptocurrencies.

Magento to Shopware Post-Migration Checklist

The final step is to double-check the results of the migration process from Magento to Shopware:

Once the system displays the “Full Migration Is Completed” screen, immediately review your results. Verifying data integrity ensures that all information has transferred correctly to your new Shopware store.

Checking Product Visibility. Most products will appear automatically on your storefront. However, out-of-stock products are hidden by default. To verify these items, locate them via the catalog or use the onsite search function.

Review Product Details. Inspect the following data points for accuracy:

  • Product descriptions.
  • Images.
  • Variants.
  • Meta descriptions.

After validating the storefront, log in to the Shopware admin panel. Browse the back-end to confirm that all customer data and historical orders are accurate and complete.

Popular Questions About Magento to Shopware Migration

Not seeing your question listed here? Contact Us for the quickest answer.

Can LitExtension migrate downloadable products from Magento to Shopware?

Yes, LitExtension can assist in migrating Files, Max Downloads, and Expiration Dates of downloadable products from Magento to Shopware.

Do LitExtension support images or other media files migration from Magento to Shopware?

Yes, LitExtension can handle thumbnail image conversion on Products, CMS Pages, Blogs; and images on Product Catalogs and Manufacturer Pages. Please contact us if you need support for other image types or media.

Can I carry along my customers’ account from Magento to Shopware?

Yes, our migration service supports transferring customer usernames and passwords from Magento to Shopware.

Will migrating to Shopware negatively impact my store’s SEO rankings?

Replatforming carries a significant risk of traffic loss often estimated between 30% and 50% if the URL structure is not managed correctly. Magento typically uses URLs ending in .html with nested category paths, whereas Shopware uses flat, “speaking” URLs by default. To mitigate this, you must create a comprehensive 301 redirect map linking every old Magento URL to its new Shopware equivalent before going live. LitExtension can create 301 redirects for your store to ensure your SEO isn’t negatively impacted.

What is the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) between Magento and Shopware?
Shopware generally offers a lower Total Cost of Ownership compared to Magento, primarily due to reduced maintenance overhead and lower developer rates. Magento’s complex, monolithic architecture often requires expensive, specialized developers and significant budget allocation for “keeping the lights on” (patches and upgrades). In contrast, Shopware’s API-first architecture and no-code tools (Rule Builder, Flow Builder) allow marketing teams to handle tasks that previously required IT support, reducing ongoing operational costs.
What are the server requirements for hosting Shopware 6 compared to Magento?

Shopware 6 is built on a modern stack utilizing Symfony 6/7, Vue.js, and PHP 8.2+, making it generally more lightweight than Magento’s resource-intensive architecture. While both platforms benefit from Varnish caching and require Elasticsearch (or OpenSearch) for large catalogs, Shopware’s simplified database structure typically results in faster response times with less hardware. However, migrating to Shopware 6 does require a strictly modern environment; legacy servers running older PHP versions or lacking Message Queue (RabbitMQ) support will need to be upgraded.
