ZTABS provides platform migration services — We migrate websites, applications, and entire platforms from legacy stacks to modern technologies — WordPress to Next.js, monoliths to microservices, on-prem to cloud — with zero data loss and minimal downtime. Our capabilities include wordpress to next.js migration, legacy app modernization, e-commerce platform migration, and more.
How We Approach Platform Migration Services
Platform migration is high-stakes work. A poorly executed migration destroys years of SEO rankings, breaks user workflows, and loses data. We treat every migration as a preservation project first and a modernization project second — mapping everything that exists before we build anything new.
We handle four core migration paths: WordPress to Next.js (converting PHP sites to blazing-fast React applications with headless CMS), Magento to Shopify (moving complex e-commerce stores to a simpler, cheaper platform), WooCommerce to Shopify (escaping WordPress maintenance for reliable hosted commerce), and legacy app modernization (rebuilding aging PHP, .NET, Java, or Access applications in modern stacks). Every migration type follows the same core principles: complete data audit before we touch anything, parallel environments so nothing breaks during transition, 301 redirect mapping for SEO preservation, automated testing to verify parity between old and new systems, and 60 days of post-launch monitoring. We use AI throughout the process — automated content extraction, intelligent URL pattern matching, and AI-assisted visual comparison testing.
Performance improvements are dramatic: WordPress sites scoring 40–60 on Core Web Vitals consistently score 90+ after migration to Next.js. E-commerce migrations typically reduce operational costs by 40–60% while improving checkout conversion rates.
