Magento Data Specialist

The Magento Side of Your Shopify Migration.

The hardest part of leaving Magento isn’t setting up Shopify — it’s safely extracting what you have. I handle the data mapping, SEO redirect planning, and EAV complexity that Shopify agencies can’t.

Your Shopify agency doesn’t understand Magento’s data.

Shopify developers are great at building on Shopify. But Magento’s backend is a completely different world — EAV tables, configurable product hierarchies, URL rewrite chains. The extraction side is where migrations break.

EAV Is a Different World

Magento stores product data across dozens of tables using Entity-Attribute-Value architecture. Configurable products, custom attribute sets, grouped products with dynamic pricing — none of this maps 1:1 to Shopify. Without someone who understands EAV, your catalog comes out mangled.

URL Rewrites Are a Minefield

Magento’s URL rewrite table is notoriously complex — redirect chains, duplicates from layered navigation, URL keys that don’t match canonical paths. A Shopify developer won’t know what to look for. Miss the redirect mapping and you lose years of Google rankings overnight.

Hidden Data Nobody Exports

Third-party extension data, custom customer attributes, tier pricing rules, customer password hashes — automated migration apps skip all of this. If you don’t know it exists in Magento’s database, you can’t migrate it.

I prepare the Magento side. Your Shopify team builds the destination.

I work alongside your Shopify developer or agency — handling the complex data extraction and mapping that requires deep Magento backend expertise.

1

Migration Readiness Assessment

I audit your Magento database to map the full scope: product types and attribute sets, custom tables from third-party extensions, customer data structures, and order history complexity. You get a clear picture of what you actually have before committing to a timeline or budget.

2

Data Mapping & Extraction

I map your Magento EAV structure to Shopify’s data model — resolving how configurable products become variants, how custom attributes translate to metafields, and how tier pricing and customer groups carry over. Then I extract clean, structured data ready for import.

3

SEO Redirect Map

I crawl your entire Magento site and build a comprehensive 301 redirect map — accounting for URL rewrite chains, layered navigation duplicates, and canonical mismatches. Your Shopify team implements the redirects; I make sure none are missed.

4

Migration Support & Validation

I stay involved through the migration to validate data accuracy on the Shopify side — checking product integrity, customer records, and order history against the Magento source. If something doesn’t match, I trace it back to the extraction.

Eduardo De Leon

I’m Eduardo, the certified Magento backend specialist behind Remmote. With 12+ years inside Magento’s architecture, I understand how products, customers, and orders are actually stored in the EAV database — the part of your migration that automated tools and Shopify developers can’t see. I also build on Shopify, so I understand both sides of the data mapping.

Trust your infrastructure to certified expertise.

Works alongside your Shopify team — or I can connect you with one.

I handle the Magento extraction and data preparation. Your Shopify developer or agency handles the destination build and import. If you don’t have a Shopify partner yet, I can connect you with agencies I trust. The result: each side is handled by the specialist who knows it best.

Start with a Migration Readiness Assessment.

Before you commit to a migration timeline or budget, get a clear picture of what’s actually in your Magento database and how complex the extraction will be.

Migration readiness assessments are a flat fee starting from $1,500 depending on store complexity. Full data extraction and mapping projects are scoped and priced based on the assessment findings.
