SOTE (SOTESHOP) to PrestaShop Migration

SOTE (SOTESHOP) to PrestaShop Migration

Planning to move your SOTESHOP store from SOTE to PrestaShop? I will start by identifying your shop's version and how the data can be provided. I will prepare the migration of products and categories and, on the PrestaShop side, configure the agreed payments and couriers.

How much does a migration from SOTE / SOTESHOP to PrestaShop cost?

• Up to 999 products: €275 net.
• From 1000 products: €410 net.
• Customer and order migration: individual quote. Not included in either of the options above.

This is the price of a one-off service covering catalog migration and configuration of the agreed payment systems and couriers. Choose the catalog size in the product options. We confirm the number of products and the variant structure from the source data before work begins.

Choose solutions to fit your shop, instead of fitting your shop to a package

PrestaShop Open Source lets you choose your own hosting, contractor and modules, with no subscription for the engine itself. It is an alternative when you want to distribute the costs of developing your shop differently. For SOTESHOP, however, we check your specific version and terms of use: we do not assume that every existing shop uses an identical package. The comparison also takes updates and technical support into account.

What does catalog migration include?

I map the available product data, codes, descriptions, prices, photos and category assignments. I verify the variant structure and the completeness of the files before the import. If the shop has custom fields or unusual data, we agree on how to handle them before the transfer starts.

• Products: transfer of the available data, including names, descriptions, prices, images and identifiers, within the scope confirmed after the export has been reviewed.
• Categories: mapping of the structure and assignment of products.
• Payments: configuration of the agreed methods using compatible modules and payment provider accounts.
• Couriers: configuration of the agreed delivery methods and integrations using data supplied by the shop owner.
• Verification: a check of the import and category assignments, plus a test of the agreed payment and delivery configuration.

What to know before migrating

Catalog migration does not transfer SOTESHOP licenses or add-ons to PrestaShop. Integrations and the new platform's template must be compatible with its version. We confirm the availability of the export and the scope of the data for the live shop, not on the basis of the platform's name alone.

This service covers migration to an agreed, prepared PrestaShop environment. It is not a complete shop project built from scratch. Hosting, the domain, paid licenses for PrestaShop modules, payment provider fees and shipping costs are not included in the migration price. Unusual integrations and additional work are confirmed before we begin.

How does working together look?

1. We define the scope. You send me the address of your current shop, the number of products, the list of payment and courier methods, and the required features.
2. I review the data. I verify the available export and how products, categories and variants will be mapped.
3. I migrate the catalog and configure the integrations. The work takes place in the agreed target environment.
4. We verify the result. We check the catalog and the purchase path before the agreed launch.

Customers, accounts and order history

Want to migrate customers or orders as well? I will prepare an individual quote after reviewing the available data, addresses, statuses and relationships. Password compatibility and the ability to keep logging in require separate verification. Please do not send personal data through a regular contact form; we will agree on how to hand the data over before the work starts.

Migration and SEO

Changing platforms may change product and category URLs. Before launch, it is worth agreeing a map of old and new addresses and the scope of 301 redirects. A full SEO migration, an audit and ranking monitoring require a separately agreed scope. I do not promise an automatic improvement in rankings, nor a migration without any fluctuation in traffic.

Can an older SOTESHOP store also be migrated?

First we need to verify the version, the access to the data and its structure. An older shop may require additional export preparation or data cleanup. Any work beyond the basic scope is agreed before we begin.

Define the scope of your migration

Send me the address of your SOTE (SOTESHOP) shop, the catalog size and the payment and delivery methods you use. Let me know whether you also want to migrate customers and orders. Contact me about migrating to PrestaShop.
