We move brands onto Magento 2 Open Source from Magento 1, WooCommerce and other platforms they’ve outgrown, with no licence fee at the end of it.
If your platform is the reason the roadmap keeps slipping, it’s time to move. The worry is usually the years of products, customers, orders and rankings sitting on the old site, and a business that can’t stop trading while it moves.
So we build Magento 2 alongside your old site and switch over when it’s ready, so you keep trading right up to launch. We map every URL and set up the redirects, so you keep your rankings.
Based in the North West? Our Magento migration team in Manchester is close by.
We start by learning how you operate: your products, your workflows and the things that keep going wrong. Then we plan the move around it, whether that’s a clean break or a phased rollout, and handle the data transfer, platform setup, design, development, integrations and testing. Magento 2 migrations start from £32,000 + VAT.







Many businesses never tap into what Magento 2 can really do. Built-in upselling and cross-selling tools, flexible product types, a faster admin interface, and native support for complex catalogue structures are all there out of the box. We make sure you’re using them to grow revenue, simplify operations, and unlock your next nice problem.
If you’re moving to Magento 2, go straight onto Hyvä and skip Luma altogether. Hyvä replaces Magento’s standard frontend with a far lighter one built on Tailwind CSS and Alpine.js (in Factor Blue’s side-by-side test, a category page loaded in 7 seconds on Luma and 1.4 seconds on Hyvä).
We did the same rebuild for Reliant, and their turnover went up 141%.
After launch we keep the site patched, secure and improving, as your Magento maintenance and support partner.
Not sure if it’s time to migrate? The NNP Workshop gives you a clear answer. We audit your current setup, benchmark the numbers that matter and show you what the old platform is costing you, before you commit to anything.
Willow & Hall, a luxury furniture brand, were stranded on Magento 1. They needed to move without losing the custom setup their business runs on.
We handled the migration end to end and rebuilt the frontend on Hyvä. The new site loads 80% faster and sales went up 15%, with no disruption to trade.
"What impressed us most was how quickly Actuate identified the root cause. Within the first call they'd spotted the metadata issue that had been tanking our traffic. Everything that followed has been just as sharp."
I like working with Actuate because they care about what they do, they clarify the detail to get the job done right. They have worked incredibly hard with our complex needs and have been on hand for help and advice every step along the way...
Without Actuate's help and support, our original website wouldn’t have succeeded. Time was of the essence, and Actuate stepped in to deliver a swift turnaround. The new site has performed exceptionally well ever since. We continue to grow thanks to Actuate. ❤️ Thanks guys!”
Their team leverages their expertise to provide sound opinions and advice to guide the project in the right direction.
I worked with Actuate on the redevelopment of the Pickett London website. Their team is an excellent asset for any company or team, it was a pleasure to work with them - easy to communicate with, easy to reach and always willing to help.
Working with Actuate is a pleasure — they are really trying to help, they listen and offer solutions to solve the problems. Thanks for all your help so far.
We've worked with Actuate for several years and the results have been consistent. Conversion rate up 113%, AOV up, bounce rate down. They know our business inside out, and it shows.
