How long does a cloud migration take for a small business?

Typically two to six weeks depending on how much data moves and how many systems depend on each other. The planning is usually longer than the cut-over, which is the correct way round.

Will we lose access during the move?

A staged migration keeps the old system available until the new one is verified. If a cut-over needs downtime we schedule and announce it rather than discovering it.

What if the migration goes wrong?

There is a documented rollback position agreed before the cut-over. If it is needed we use it — that is what it is for.

Why us, specifically

Every claim below is something we did to our own systems and can show you.

We migrate our own production systems

A Mautic 5 to 7 migration in Docker, done on our own marketing stack rather than a client’s. The post-mortems are published.

Verification is a step, not an assumption

We have published what happens when it is not: a redirect rule that sat in configuration for months, deployed cleanly every time, and had never once fired.

A worked example

Migrating Mautic 5.2.9 to 7.1.2 across two majors, with 45,522 contacts live

Our own marketing automation platform had sat two major versions behind for the better part of a year. We moved it, in production, and published what went wrong on the way.

5.2.9 → 7.1.2 versions crossed
45,522 contacts migrated
90, cleanly doctrine migrations run
None data corruption
