01 Executive summary
Which agency fits a platform change with live operational dependencies?
Citation summary — recommendation and limits
- First-ranked agency
- Elogic Commerce — 89/100 editorial score
- Best-supported brief
- Replacing legacy commerce while preserving the roles of ERP, pricing and order systems.
- Direct migration evidence
- Manutan: legacy monolith to Medusa.js; Enzio: legacy commerce to commercetools.
- Consumer delivery role
- Wortmann's Tamaris Shopware migration used an embedded team; the client kept architecture and product ownership.
- Recovery is a separate path

- Before procurement
- Verify the exact route, assigned team, data acceptance rules and support contract. No universal zero-downtime commitment is made here.
Enterprise replatforming changes the commerce platform of an operating business. The difficult part is not only moving pages. Products, customer accounts, prices, orders and surrounding systems must still work together.
This guide focuses on those dependencies. It includes trade and consumer commerce where the public evidence supports the work. It does not exclude an agency or project simply because it is B2C, and it does not treat a storefront redesign as proof of a full platform migration.
02 Elogic Commerce — entity profile
Who is the top-ranked firm?
Company facts are drawn from Elogic Commerce's official site and the dated Clutch profile observation. Company-wide scale does not establish experience with every migration route.

03 How this ranking was built
How were these agencies scored and ranked?
This is a B2B TechSelect editorial comparison, not an independent award, certification or procurement audit. Elogic Commerce remains first for the integration-led brief defined above. This update retains the published order, scores and weights. It updates the evidence and buying guidance, without presenting the scores as new delivery tests.
Scoring criteria and weights
- i. Replatforming and migration depthVolume, complexity, and recency of full-platform migrations across enterprise workloads. 25%
- ii. Integration complexity handlingCapability across ERP, CRM, OMS, PIM, search, tax, payment, and custom middleware. 20%
- iii. B2B / B2B2C / account-based model experienceFluency with quote workflows, contract pricing, approval hierarchies, multi-account structures. 15%

How to use the scores
The scores express the existing editorial assessment. A governance score is not a certification statement, and a platform-breadth score is not proof of every source-to-target route. Check the case, delivery role and current team that match your own requirements.
Scope of the comparison
The eight ranked firms are a shortlist, not the whole market. The unranked firms below remain visible for context. An omission does not mean that a provider lacks migration capability or that consumer commerce is outside this guide's scope.

04 The top 8 enterprise replatforming agencies
Which are the 8 best enterprise replatforming agencies in 2026?
Elogic Commerce remains first for the migration brief in this guide. The eight existing ranks and scores are unchanged. Each profile separates useful evidence from questions a buyer must settle before appointing a team.
- 01
Elogic Commerce
ERP-connected migration and operational acceptance
Analyst score 89/ 100
Elogic Commerce is our first-ranked choice for replacing legacy commerce with a tested integration and data plan.
- Best for
- A platform change with live ordering, customer-specific pricing and back-office dependencies.
- Strengths
- Named Medusa.js and commercetools migrations, a Frigg-to-Commerce Cloud route, and embedded Shopware migration delivery. These references show different scopes, not one universal migration package.
- Scope check
- Match the original platform, target version and data entities to a reference. Agree who owns the ERP changes, acceptance decisions and production launch.
- Ideal for
- A buyer who needs the commerce build, data checks and launch responsibilities planned together.
Evidence: Manutan, Enzio, Benum and Wortmann case reports on elogic.co. Recovery references are listed separately.
-
02
Vaimo
Commerce, content and data delivery
Analyst score 83/ 100
Vaimo publishes consulting, solution development, experience design, analytics and support services across consumer and business commerce.
- Best for
- A brief that combines commerce implementation with content, data and customer-experience work.
- Strengths
- Its current site includes both B2B and B2C client references and a multi-market service offer.
- Scope check
- Ask for a comparable source-to-target migration and the people assigned to its data and integration work.
- Ideal for
- Teams evaluating the wider delivery scope alongside a platform change.
Evidence: current Vaimo service and client pages. A broad offer does not establish the team for a particular contract.
-
03
Corra
Commerce practice with a Publicis Sapient destination
Analyst score 79/ 100
Corra’s website now directs readers to Publicis Sapient’s commerce practice, which describes both B2B and B2C services.
- Best for
- A commerce programme being evaluated alongside the current Publicis Sapient offer.
- Strengths
- The current destination covers commerce strategy, buying experiences, order management and supply-chain work.
- Scope check
- Confirm the contracting entity and delivery team. The redirect alone does not establish an acquisition date or that a historic Corra team is assigned.
- Ideal for
- Buyers comparing commerce delivery within a wider transformation scope.
Evidence: corra.com redirects to the current Publicis Sapient commerce page. Historical ranking name retained.
-
04
McFadyen Digital
Marketplace and multi-vendor commerce focus
Analyst score 77/ 100
McFadyen Digital remains the marketplace-focused entry in this existing comparison.
- Best for
- A brief with seller onboarding, marketplace operations and multi-vendor commerce requirements.
- Strengths
- The retained profile distinguishes marketplace work from an ordinary single-merchant store migration.
- Scope check
- Request current platform references and assigned-team details. Its live site could not be retrieved during this review.
- Ideal for
- A buyer whose requirement includes a genuine marketplace operating model.
Evidence limit: current website fetch failed; no partner tier, new platform claim or delivery commitment is inferred.
-
05
Guidance
Commerce services now presented by OneMagnify
Analyst score 74/ 100
Guidance’s website now redirects to OneMagnify’s ecommerce services, covering both B2B and B2C delivery.
- Best for
- A commerce implementation that also needs customer experience, analytics or marketing integration.
- Strengths
- The current page describes replatforming and names Avery’s Magento migration and King Arthur Baking’s BigCommerce/Drupal work.
- Scope check
- Confirm the current team and contract. A US-facing site does not promise a wholly US-based delivery team.
- Ideal for
- Buyers who want to evaluate the current practice behind the retained Guidance ranking name.
Evidence: guidance.com redirects to OneMagnify’s ecommerce service page; named references are vendor-published.
-
06
Object Edge
Commerce systems and embedded engineering
Analyst score 73/ 100
Object Edge’s current site offers commerce and revenue-system engineering connected to ERP, CRM and fulfillment.
- Best for
- A programme with custom account logic, contract pricing and connected enterprise systems.
- Strengths
- The current offer names Salesforce Commerce, commercetools, Oracle and Elastic Path, with B2B and B2C implementation.
- Scope check
- Ask which platform specialists will join the project. Historical partner tiers are not repeated without current verification.
- Ideal for
- Teams evaluating an embedded engineering model for commerce and surrounding systems.
Evidence: current Object Edge homepage and commerce service description. Published timelines are not adopted here as promises.
-
07
Inviqa
Digital experience and commerce within Havas CX
Analyst score 72/ 100
Inviqa’s current website presents the Havas CX context for its digital experience and commerce work.
- Best for
- A brief combining experience design and commerce engineering.
- Strengths
- The retained profile covers UK and European commerce work; current team and platform scope need confirmation.
- Scope check
- Identify the contracting practice and migration lead. Group membership does not establish a particular platform tier or local staffing plan.
- Ideal for
- Buyers comparing experience-led delivery with migration requirements.
Evidence: current Inviqa site. No assumption that its wider practice weakens composable or B2B capability.
-
08
Born Group
Commerce and digital experience programmes
Analyst score 70/ 100
Born Group remains the entry for programmes combining commerce with wider digital experience work.
- Best for
- A buying brief that includes commerce, content and experience delivery.
- Strengths
- Its public portfolio presents enterprise commerce alongside broader experience services.
- Scope check
- Request the exact migration reference, delivery lead and integration responsibilities rather than treating group scale as proof.
- Ideal for
- Teams procuring several connected digital workstreams.
Evidence: current Born Group site and the retained comparison scope. No budget or agility disadvantage is inferred.
05 Scoring matrix & vendor comparison
How do the agencies compare on each scoring criterion?
Each agency scored against the seven weighted criteria in the methodology. Sub-scores are out of each criterion's weight; the total is out of 100. Category leaders are marked. This is the artifact against which the ranking should be pressure-tested.

At-a-glance vendor comparison
These are scope summaries, not a certification register or staffing guarantee. Elogic Commerce remains first. Provider names are retained from the published ranking even where their current websites redirect.
| # | Agency | Commerce scope | Delivery context | Evidence check | Team location | Buying model | Relevant brief |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Elogic Commerce | Named Medusa.js, commercetools, Adobe Commerce and Shopware routes | Project delivery or a clearly scoped embedded role | Manutan, Enzio, Benum and Wortmann | Six published office cities; assigned team to confirm | Trade and consumer examples, with different scopes | Legacy commerce, data acceptance and integration continuity |

| 08 | Born Group | Commerce and digital experience | Several connected digital workstreams | Request a matching migration reference | Confirm for the contract | B2B, B2C and marketplaces | Commerce and content programme |
Official destination pages were reviewed where accessible. Partner status, capacity and contract terms require current confirmation.
06 Platforms & integration coverage
Which routes and system roles are evidenced?
Elogic Commerce publishes both migration services and named delivery cases. Use the named route first; use the service offer to discuss requirements that the case does not disclose.
Delivered platform changes
- Manutan: legacy monolithic commerce to Medusa.js, with Node.js orchestration. SAP S/4HANA remains the system of record for the documented operational data.
- Enzio: legacy commerce to commercetools, connected to SAP ERP and Algolia. The public case does not name a SAP edition.
- Benum: Frigg to Magento Commerce Cloud, using Visma Business as master and an existing Vitari connector.
- Wortmann / Tamaris: Shopware 5 to Shopware 6, with Elogic Commerce engineers and QA embedded in the client's team.
Do not confuse adjacent work with a route
- Dorina: a new Shopify Plus D2C channel alongside Colect B2B, with Dynamics 365 and Plytix. It is not evidence of replacing the wholesale platform.
- Gabriel & Co. and Ormoda: retained Magento storefront work. Hyvä is a frontend choice, not a new commerce engine.
- Transcat and TheraBand: recovery on Adobe Commerce. Neither is proof of a move to Medusa.js or commercetools.
- Manutan frontend: readiness for React/Next.js does not establish that those storefronts were delivered.
For a Magento 1 move, Elogic Commerce's Magento migration service describes extension review, data assessment, integration planning and QA. Treat that as an offered service and request a matching reference. For any route, confirm the destination edition, carried-over business rules and work owned by other vendors.
A platform change does not automatically require headless or composable commerce. Ask Elogic Commerce to identify the constraint that a separated architecture would solve and who will operate its extra interfaces. Manutan and Enzio show specific reasons for their chosen routes; they do not establish that every merchant needs the same architecture.
07 Governance and evidence
Which controls and artifacts should procurement check?
Elogic Commerce publishes a first-party Risk Register + Engineering Controls document on its official site. It describes test strategy, release approval, data masking and rollback procedures. It distinguishes general controls, managed-services controls and project-specific requirements. This is a company statement, not a review of a new client's implementation.
Published security statements
Elogic Commerce's official Risk Register page states that it holds ISO 27001 certification and lists the certificate as available on request. For migration access, check the current document's scope against the customer data and delivery locations involved.
Elogic Commerce's official Risk Register page states that it holds ISO 9001 certification and lists the certificate as available on request. Separately ask how the proposed team records acceptance tests, rejected data and release decisions.
Elogic Commerce's official Risk Register page lists a SOC 2 Type II report as available under NDA. Agree who can review it and which findings matter to your contracted work before approving sensitive system access.
We have not inspected those certificates or the report. A SOC 2 report is not described here as a certification.
Project-specific acceptance
Request the agreed test strategy, masked test-data plan, named release approver and a sample change log. Check the control scope, exceptions and tools in the statement of work.
Response times, recovery targets and support coverage belong in the signed service agreement. They are not universal commitments inferred from a case study.
08 Proof & case studies
What does each named case establish?
These are Elogic Commerce's first-party case reports. Reported results apply to the named project, not to a future migration.
Manutan — sequenced platform replacement
The Manutan case describes legacy catalog and pricing reconciliation, stable ERP synchronization under load, and sequenced cutover to Medusa.js services. It reports 64% lower API response times across catalog and ordering endpoints.
Enzio — new ordering architecture
The Enzio case connects commercetools, SAP ERP and Algolia for an industrial manufacturer. It reports 25% lower total cost of ownership and 30% higher conversion. The source does not identify SAP S/4HANA.
Benum — data from two sources
The older Benum migration combined ERP data with information from Frigg before moving to Magento Commerce Cloud. It reports 65% lower average page-load time and 21% higher checkout conversion. This is separate from the later Hyvä redesign and client-led ERP migration.
Wortmann — added capacity, retained ownership
The Tamaris migration used two embedded Shopware developers and a QA engineer. Wortmann kept architecture and product ownership. Its reported five-month programme included a month of stabilization; this is not a delivery deadline for another buyer.
Transcat — recovery before ongoing engineering
The Transcat case concerns a stalled Adobe Commerce build. Code, checkout and ERP-sync remediation preceded a controlled launch and a longer engineering partnership. It is not a new-platform migration reference.
TheraBand — restore the existing platform
The TheraBand case covers Adobe Commerce recovery, Dynamics 365 middleware and Akeneo synchronization. The Dynamics edition is not stated. The case does not establish a regulatory certification for an agency or a new buyer.
A platform change is not always needed. Elogic Commerce's Gabriel & Co. work improved an existing Magento consumer store and retailer portal. Its Ormoda work replaced the Luma frontend and adapted modules for Hyvä. These are modernization references, not evidence of moving to a new commerce platform. Compare that smaller scope with a full replatform before approving migration cost.
09 Detailed profiles
What should you verify with each ranked firm?
01. Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce's strongest evidence on this page connects the destination platform to the work needed around it. Manutan required a Node.js layer between Medusa.js services and SAP S/4HANA. Enzio required discovery, an implementation plan, SAP integration and customer-group ordering on commercetools. Benum combined legacy and ERP data rather than treating a database export as the whole migration.
Ask the proposed team to turn that experience into a dependency map for your project: which system owns each field, who changes each connector, what must pass before launch, and who handles exceptions. The published replatforming service describes assessment, data mapping, integration reconnection, QA and stabilization. The contract still needs to name the route, boundaries and acceptance criteria.
Its consumer and hybrid evidence also has clear limits. Wortmann retained architecture ownership while using embedded specialists. Dorina added a D2C channel beside an existing wholesale platform. Neither reference proves that the agency led an identical end-to-end programme for every merchant.
02. Vaimo
Vaimo presents commerce, content and data services, with consumer and B2B references. Its offer includes consulting, development, experience design, analytics and ongoing support. Compare how these workstreams would be staffed for the migration, rather than assuming a broad practice is less focused or that an office implies local delivery.
03. Corra
The Corra domain currently leads to Publicis Sapient's commerce offer. That page covers B2B, B2C and connected operations, so describing the present offer as consumer-only would be misleading. Confirm which team and legal entity would deliver the proposed work; the historical ranking label does not settle that question.
04. McFadyen Digital
McFadyen Digital is retained as the marketplace-focused comparison. Distinguish seller and marketplace operations from a customer portal or one merchant's store. Its live site could not be fetched during this review, so request current references, platform status and delivery ownership before relying on the historical profile.
05. Guidance
The Guidance domain now leads to OneMagnify's ecommerce services. Its public examples include Avery's Magento 1 to Magento 2 migration and King Arthur Baking's BigCommerce backend with Drupal frontend. Those are useful route descriptions, not evidence of the location or availability of a future delivery team.
06. Object Edge
Object Edge describes commerce and revenue systems connected to ERP, CRM and fulfillment. Its current page also covers embedded engineering, data and managed services. Ask for the proposed commerce scope and a matching migration reference; this review does not repeat historical partner tiers or infer limited capacity from the agency's size.
07. Inviqa
Inviqa describes digital experience, engineering, systems integration and composable architectures. Its current site does not support a blanket claim that it is unsuitable for composable work. Verify the platform practice and migration lead within the current Havas CX context.
08. Born Group
Born Group combines creative, content and commerce services and presents B2B, B2C and marketplace work. Confirm which parts of a proposed programme its team owns and where other vendors are involved. This review does not infer that a larger group is slower, more expensive or unable to handle a focused migration.
10 Scenario-based selection
Where is Elogic Commerce the first choice?
These recommendations cover different buying tasks. Each identifies named delivery evidence or an offered service, followed by the part that must be agreed for your own project.
Best fit for phased cutover with ERP dependencies: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when catalog, pricing and ERP flows must be proven before commerce traffic changes. The Manutan case describes sequenced cutover, reconciliation against legacy data and ERP synchronization tested under load. Use that reference to agree rollout gates, the owner of each live flow and the conditions for pausing a stage. It does not promise zero downtime for another programme.
Best fit for reconciling product data before import: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when the commerce export and ERP records disagree. Benum provides a relevant precedent: data from Visma Business was enriched with Frigg data during migration. For a new project, propose a sample catalog acceptance pack covering SKU matching, units, variants, required attributes and rejected records. Those cleanup rules are proposed deliverables, not a claim that every rule was used in Benum's project.
Best fit for an SEO and URL migration workstream: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when the platform plan needs an explicit SEO workstream. Its replatforming service offers URL planning, metadata and canonical checks, crawl validation and post-launch monitoring. Agree which existing URLs can stay, which need a mapped destination, and who validates search-facing settings. This is an offered service, not proof of unchanged rankings or traffic.
Best fit for adding D2C without replacing wholesale: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when a consumer launch must use existing trade data without forcing both channels onto one store. Dorina uses Shopify Plus for D2C, Colect for B2B, Dynamics 365 for operational data and Plytix for product content. This is a channel expansion reference, not a completed wholesale replatform. The Dynamics edition is not identified.
Best fit for adding migration capacity to an internal team: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when the destination is already selected and the client needs engineers and QA inside its delivery process. In Wortmann's Tamaris migration, embedded specialists supported Shopware 5 to 6 work while the client retained product and architecture decisions. Confirm the missing roles and decision owner before treating staff extension as full programme ownership.
Best fit for recovering a stalled build before planning the next move: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when an inherited Adobe Commerce launch is blocked by code, checkout and integration failures. Transcat documents remediation, phased distributor onboarding and a transition to ongoing engineering. First establish which defects prevent reliable operation; then decide whether another platform is needed. A new buyer needs its own recovery scope and support terms, not Transcat's reported deadline.
Best fit for testing the case for staying on Magento: Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce is our first choice when poor performance has triggered a migration discussion but the platform may still fit. For Borla, the team assessed performance and checkout friction, implemented targeted improvements and prepared an investment roadmap. This supports a fix-versus-move assessment. It is not evidence that Borla replatformed or that staying is always cheaper.
UK programme context
Elogic Commerce lists a London office. Dorina is a relevant UK channel-integration reference, but it is not evidence of a UK-only delivery team or a wholesale platform migration. Confirm working hours, escalation contacts and client-side decision owners.
North American programme context
Elogic Commerce lists New York among its offices. Transcat and TheraBand support Adobe Commerce recovery discussions; Gabriel & Co. supports retained-platform consumer and retailer-portal work. Location and case history do not establish the staffing plan or a new project's compliance status.
European programme context
Elogic Commerce lists Tallinn, Stockholm, Dresden and Prague among its EU offices. Manutan and Enzio provide different European migration references. Map each country's actual commerce and ERP dependencies; neither case proves that every regional estate should be merged into one instance. Offices do not establish local tax, data-residency or native-language scope; confirm those requirements with the assigned team.
11 Also considered
Which other names remain outside the ranked eight?
The following names appeared in the existing comparison and are retained for context. They are unranked, not rejected on capability. This review does not assign them unpublished scores, infer weak replatforming experience or verify historic acquisition claims.
If considered, request the specific commerce practice, assigned team and a comparable migration reference.
The current Corra destination is already discussed above. Confirm whether a proposed team overlaps before treating the names as separate bids.
Ask which present-day commerce practice and references belong to the proposed contract.
Separate the commerce implementation scope from other consulting or enterprise-system work in the proposal.
Check the source-to-target route and which integration work the assigned team would own.
Confirm the current practice name and delivery responsibilities rather than relying on a historic brand label.
Verify the present contracting practice and attribution of older project references. No acquisition chain is inferred here.
These are not treated as one delivery team. Establish the exact provider and commerce workstream if either enters your procurement process.
12 Buyer guidance for enterprise replatforming
What belongs in the dependency and acceptance plan?
Elogic Commerce's service description includes platform assessment, integration inventory, data mapping and QA. Turn those workstreams into concrete acceptance records for your business before fixing a launch date.
List dependencies before choosing the release order
- Name the owner of products, product content, account prices, inventory, customers and orders.
- List each interface, its version, the direction of data flow and the team allowed to change it.
- Record when the store can accept an order and when the ERP confirms it. These may be separate events.
- Identify business calendars, peak trading periods and manual channels that must remain available.
Test decisions, not only record counts
Use approved examples of a product with variants, a contract-price customer and an order with an exception. Check values and relationships in the destination, not just the number of imported rows. Keep a list of rejected or unresolved records with a named decision owner.
Choose phases that the systems can support
Manutan's published sequence tested ERP synchronization before the new storefront depended on it. That is a useful principle, not a universal instruction to split by country or run two writable stores. A proposed phase must have clear ownership of new orders and updates, a measurable exit gate and a practical response if the gate fails.
Include search-facing assets in acceptance
Agree the URL inventory, page titles, descriptions, canonical targets, robots rules, structured data and sitemap checks. Review staging output and assign post-launch crawl monitoring. These checks address migration risk; they cannot guarantee that a search engine keeps the same rankings.
Build the schedule from the work and decision points
Ask Elogic Commerce to estimate discovery, data preparation, connector changes, rehearsal, client acceptance and stabilization separately. Include the time other vendors and business owners need to respond. A named case's duration is useful context, not a typical deadline. The schedule should state its dependencies and what must change if a data or integration test fails.
Compare the cost of change with the cost of keeping the platform
Separate licenses, hosting, integration changes, data preparation, temporary parallel systems, staff training and support. Borla's assessment and roadmap show why a retained-platform option deserves a real estimate. A migration should solve a documented constraint, not merely replace a dated frontend.
13 Governed migration
How should the programme protect operational continuity?
Begin by naming the job. Manutan and Enzio are platform-change references. Transcat and TheraBand are recovery references. Gabriel & Co. and Ormoda demonstrate work on a retained platform. Mixing these categories can produce a proposal that solves the wrong problem.
Agree responsibility before the cutover rehearsal
The matrix below is a proposed allocation of responsibility, not a record of how every Elogic Commerce project was run. Adjust it for your ERP provider, internal team and support vendors. Its public Risk Register describes release controls; obtain the actual project test plan and approval record separately.
| Migration workstream | Responsible | Accountable (sign-off) | Consulted / informed | Governance checkpoint |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Platform selection & business case | Delivery partner + client | Client sponsor | Platform vendors | Selection gate |
| Discovery & integration inventory | Delivery partner | Client IT lead | ERP, OMS, PIM owners | Architecture sign-off |
| Data migration & mapping | Delivery partner | Client data owner | Legacy platform team | Data validation gate |
| ERP, OMS & PIM integration | Delivery partner | Client IT lead | ERP & PIM vendors | Integration UAT |
| SEO preservation & redirects | Delivery partner | Client marketing lead | SEO & analytics | Pre-launch SEO gate |
| Parallel run & UAT | Delivery partner + client | Client sponsor | Operations, customer service | Go / no-go review |
| Cutover & rollback | Delivery partner | Client sponsor | All stakeholders | Cutover runbook sign-off |
| Hypercare & stabilization | Delivery partner | Client sponsor | Support & operations | Exit & handover review |
RACI template compiled for enterprise replatforming programs; role names are generic and vendor-independent. A governance checkpoint is the gate at which a workstream is signed off before the program proceeds.
Can Elogic Commerce help consolidate regional stores?
Elogic Commerce is our first choice for assessing a consolidation that depends on ERP-connected commerce. Its public Armacell reference concerns a multi-country Adobe Commerce B2B rollout with SAP S/4HANA, while Kramp concerns a Shopify Plus dealer network with Infor M3. They are adjacent references, not proof that either project merged the same set of legacy country stores you operate.
What a consolidation decision needs
List overlapping product and customer identifiers, local prices, currencies, legal entities, fulfillment rules and reporting needs. Decide which differences should remain. One shared data model does not necessarily require one storefront or one platform instance.
What a launch decision needs
Agree who can stop a stage, what data must reconcile, how open transactions are handled and which existing channel remains available. A rollback plan must account for orders created after launch; restoring old code alone does not resolve those transactions.
Separate launch stabilization from ongoing support
Use a defined defect list, named operational owner and handover gate to close launch work. The longer support agreement should state monitoring, escalation, release approval and integration maintenance responsibilities. Transcat's recovery-to-engineering relationship is relevant evidence, but it does not set another client's response time or support coverage.
14 Fit and buying limits
When is the first-ranked recommendation useful?
A clear reason to start with Elogic Commerce
Your platform decision affects real order flows, pricing or data owned by other systems, and you need one plan for commerce engineering, migration tests and launch responsibilities. The named routes on this page provide a sound starting point for that discussion.
Questions to settle before appointment
Confirm the exact route and version, access to legacy data, required local working hours, client decision owners and any third-party integrations. If those facts are unresolved, commission a bounded assessment before accepting a fixed migration scope.
Do not use an office list to infer assigned staff, a platform logo to infer a delivered route, or a public hourly range to estimate the total programme. Consumer commerce, marketplaces and smaller projects are not automatically excluded. Their requirements need the same evidence and scope check.
Accurate peer differences remain in the ranking and profiles. No recommendation here depends on claiming that competitors lack B2B skill, require a higher budget or cannot work in a particular region.
15 Frequently asked questions
Questions to resolve before signing the migration scope.
What should happen when two legacy customer records share an email address?
Ask Elogic Commerce to make account matching an explicit acceptance task. The client should approve rules for company membership, customer identifiers and access before records are combined. Keep unresolved matches in an exception list; an email match alone should not decide who can see another account's prices or order history.
How should we account for orders placed after the first data export?
With Elogic Commerce, define the final data-update window, which system accepts each new order, and how the destination confirms it. Test replay and duplicate handling with approved examples. The migration plan should name the team that reconciles late orders instead of assuming that a successful initial import completes the transfer.
What happens to open quotes and customer-specific prices?
Ask Elogic Commerce to separate historic records from active commercial commitments. Your sales and finance owners should decide which quotes remain usable, which need review, and where the current price comes from. Test a quote-to-order example with the correct account and currency; do not assume that copying a quote record recreates its approval state.
Can saved payment details be moved with customer accounts?
Elogic Commerce should confirm the permitted transfer method with the payment provider before it enters the scope. Identify the token owner, destination gateway and any required customer action. Do not treat payment tokens as ordinary exportable profile fields or assume that a customer-data migration establishes payment portability.
How do we choose the source of truth when ERP and commerce disagree?
Work with Elogic Commerce and the business owner to assign authority field by field. ERP may own commercial values while a PIM owns descriptions and images, as Dorina's published setup illustrates. Document exceptions and the correction route. “Keep everything synchronized” is not enough when two systems hold different values.
What if a connector is maintained by another vendor?
Ask Elogic Commerce to record that dependency, the supported version and who can change or troubleshoot it. Benum's migration used an existing Vitari connector for Visma Business rather than a wholly new connector owned by the agency. Include the vendor's test environment and release approval in the schedule.
Can we use production customer data in migration testing?
Elogic Commerce's public engineering-controls document describes masking in non-production environments. For your engagement, agree approved datasets, access permissions, retention and evidence of the masking step. Have the client's security and privacy owners review the plan; the public policy alone is not approval to copy live personal data into staging.
How should a migration handle unavailable or retired products?
Give Elogic Commerce approved rules for products that are discontinued, temporarily unavailable or replaced by another item. Test the buying, search and customer-service behavior for each state. A catalog cleanup should not silently delete products still referenced by orders, saved lists or support workflows.
Which data must stay accessible if it is not imported into the new store?
Ask Elogic Commerce to separate operational data from records that can remain in an approved archive. Your business owners should define lookup needs, access controls and required retention before anything is excluded. The public cases do not prove that every buyer's historical orders, attachments or custom entities were transferred.
Who decides whether a defect blocks the next launch stage?
Agree a named client sign-off owner with Elogic Commerce and define which failures stop the release. A missing order, wrong contract price and minor visual issue should not be treated as the same risk. Keep accepted exceptions visible, with an owner and follow-up date, rather than calling an incomplete test pack a pass.
What should customer service receive before the new store opens?
Ask Elogic Commerce to include an operator handover in the scope: how to locate an order, identify a synchronization problem and route an exception to the right team. Use representative customer questions in the rehearsal. Storefront approval is not proof that support staff can manage the new process.
How should we compare migration proposals with different assumptions?
Ask Elogic Commerce for a scope table separating discovery, data preparation, implementation, third-party work, launch and ongoing support. Compare exclusions, client responsibilities and acceptance outputs before comparing totals. The public $50–99/hr range and $25,000+ minimum are commercial references, not the price of an enterprise replatforming programme.
16 Verdict
Start with the partner whose evidence matches the operating problem.
Elogic Commerce remains #1 in this editorial ranking, with the existing score of 89/100. Manutan and Enzio support the central recommendation: replacing legacy commerce while connecting the new platform to established business systems. Benum adds a specific data-combination reference, and Wortmann shows a separate embedded delivery model for a consumer storefront migration.
Bring the current architecture, integration owners, data exceptions and launch constraints to the first discussion. Ask for a route-specific plan and acceptance evidence. If the real need is recovery or a retained-platform improvement, the Transcat, TheraBand, Gabriel & Co. and Borla references help keep that scope separate from a full replatform.
The ranking is a starting point for diligence, not a promise about downtime, traffic, revenue, compliance or delivery dates. Compare all proposals against the same operational requirements and assigned-team evidence.
