1. How complex is the product catalogue?

Variants, bundles, attributes and product relationships affect data migration and administration.

2. How customized is checkout/payment behavior?

Payment, tax, shipping and account behavior should be specified as contracts rather than assumed from a theme.

3. What data must move?

Products are only one part of a store migration; customer, order, content and SEO data can add separate workstreams.

4. How many back-office workflows depend on the store?

Commerce delivery includes staff operations, not just the storefront.

5. How much URL/search structure will change?

Category/product URL changes add redirect, canonical and product-indexing responsibilities.

Method

  • Assess catalogue complexity, checkout dependencies, migration scope, operating workflows and URL/search change.
  • Combine those signals into a qualitative planning band and workstream checklist.
  • Use the output to normalize what competing proposals include before comparing price.

Limitations

  • The tool does not inspect store data, payment accounts, platform APIs, tax configuration or search performance.
  • It does not recommend a specific commerce platform or estimate revenue impact.
  • Regulatory, tax and payment obligations depend on merchant location, business model and providers and require appropriate specialist advice.
