B2B Magento to OroCommerce Migration

The transition from Magento to OroCommerce represents a strategic shift that delivers measurable improvements in operational efficiency, system scalability, and overall cost management for B2B organisations. Our migration practice has evolved over several years, with each project revealing new insights into the technical and business benefits of this platform change.

Organisations that initially struggle with Magento’s architectural complexity and maintenance costs discover that OroCommerce offers a more streamlined approach, typically reducing total cost of ownership by 40-60%. The performance gains are particularly notable, and the native B2B functionality eliminates the need for extensive custom development work.

The methodology outlined in this guide shows our hands-on experience across diverse project environments. Our portfolio covers small-scale operations with limited product catalogues as well as enterprise-level implementations managing large SKU inventories. The migration approach has been refined through successful implementations involving Magento 2.4.8 and the OroCommerce 6.1 platform.

Prerequisites

  • Server with PHP 8.4, PostgreSQL 15, and sufficient resources for OroCommerce requirements
  • Full backups of the Magento database, configurations, and media files
  • Proficiency in SQL, PHP scripting, and REST API handling
  • Understanding of EAV (Entity-Attribute-Value) data structures in Magento
