Audit
Prior to migrating online stores to MedusaJS and rendering related services, it is vital to get an in-depth understanding of the requirements surrounding design, functionality, integrations, and, ultimately, time and budget constraints, as these will impact the scope of the project.
With this in mind, prior to rendering MedusaJS migration services, our engineers conduct an all-round audit:
Store Audit
Current data volume, store structure, and design
Requirements gathering
Define new store needs and want-build list custom, future state idea.
Timeline planning

MedusaJS Migration Service for Your Database
Primary migration
It all starts with the primary database migration: our developers analyze the existing platform's database structure and develop custom migration scripts to transfer data to MedusaJS's PostgreSQL database, while documenting all transformations and ensuring zero data loss.
Once done, we provide you with access to our staging environment where you can review everything to make sure the migration went smoothly. We set up a comprehensive data validation process to verify integrity across all entities.

Delta migration
To safeguard uninterrupted flow of your business processes, Askan Tech keeps the source site alive while we provide MedusaJS migration services and end users keep making changes in the source system. Continuous data synchronization between source and target is vital.
Once the functionality and design are ready and you're prepared to make the switch, we run the delta migration process through automated scripts that compare source and destination databases, transferring incremental changes made since the primary migration:
New orders
New customers
New orders and transactions
Customer registrations and profile updates
Product additions and modifications
Inventory changes
New content and media
Admin operations and configuration changes
We also manually migrate the following data by request:
Custom media organization
Admin user accounts with specific permissions
Historical analytics and reporting data
MedusaJS Functionality Migration
Since MedusaJS has fundamentally different architecture from Magento 2, WooCommerce, or Shopify, functionality cannot be "migrated" in the traditional sense—it must be recreated using MedusaJS's modern plugin system.
Our engineers analyze every feature of your current store and implement equivalent or improved functionality on MedusaJS, ensuring you retain all critical capabilities while gaining new possibilities.
Functionality Migration Process
Retaining integrations
Retaining existing integrations when rendering MedusaJS migration services involves recreating connections with third-party solutions through MedusaJS's plugin system, native integrations, or custom-built connectors.
MedusaJS Integration Services
Askan Tech renders MedusaJS integration services, connecting your MedusaJS instance with enterprise software, third-party service APIs, and custom-built applications. We ensure your MedusaJS solution covers business processes completely while providing seamless synchronization of orders, customers, inventory, fulfillment, and billing data.
Design & Frontend Migration
Given the headless architecture of MedusaJS, your frontend is completely decoupled and can be built with any modern framework.
Our designers and developers can help you address this opportunity in several ways:
Starter Template Customization
Using MedusaJS Next.js starter or Gatsby starter, we customize the design to match your brand while leveraging proven UI patterns.
Design System Recreation
We recreate your existing design system in a modern frontend framework, ensuring brand consistency while optimizing for performance and mobile experience.
Custom Headless Frontend
Our team delivers complete design and development of a unique, high-performance frontend from scratch—optimized for conversions and user experience.
SEO settings migration
It is vital for any ecommerce business to retain and improve your SEO performance when migrating, which requires careful planning and execution.
Our SEO experts analyze your current configuration, study existing implementations, and fully understand the SEO-related complexities behind MedusaJS migration services to ensure you maintain or improve your search rankings.
