Joomla to WordPress Migration Services
Joomla is primarily used for developing e-commerce shops, social platforms, product catalogs, marketplaces, and online forums. This content management system (CMS) fairs well on the usability and functionality front.
While Joomla developers may boast about its amazing capabilities like multilingual, multi-vendor, user management, and smart search, nothing can hide the fact that WordPress (deservingly) sits in the core of 43.3 percent of websites across the web in comparison to Joomla’s 3 percent.
So, if you are opting for Joomla to WordPress Migration Services, Multidots assures you to make your journey hitch-free in all possible ways.
Why Migrate Joomla CMS to WordPress?
Why Migrate from Joomla to WordPress
with Multidots?
Be it flexibility, security, extensibility, search-engine capabilities, or updates – WordPress makes a perfect choice for you. Having rich experience of working on Joomla as well as WordPress/WooCommerce projects, we can confirm that WordPress is way more advantageous for e-Commerce businesses and enterprises. And with us handling the hefty task of Joomla to WordPress migration, this task won’t be hefty or risky for you at all.
Ease-of-use
Personalizing the front-end in Joomla is not as smooth as in the case of WordPress. The WordPress CMS even lets you edit HTML files through the in-built software, eliminating the need for using FTP frequently.
Flexibility and Customization
Despite being able to build robust and mobile-responsive solutions, Joomla is not at par with WordPress. WordPress has an architecture that lets your enterprise website grow exponentially without hiccups.
Security
Fewer updates and delayed support can worsen your Joomla site’s condition, alongside inviting threats. On the other hand, WordPress is a very stable and highly secure CMS that is suitable for small and largest businesses alike.
Updates and Maintenance
In Joomla, modules have little support and may give you a hard time. WordPress upgradation and maintenance cycle are like a breeze in its comparison. WP has a vast community and strict plugin update rules for its directory.
Deployment
Joomla development, designing, and customization take more time than WordPress sites. Thanks to the ready-made components and customization capabilities of the latter, you can launch a uniquely styled website within 30 minutes too.
Load-speed and SEO
The flexibility of the CMS and its search-engine optimization potential makes WordPress a preference for your SEO needs over Joomla!. Not just that, your migrated website from WordPress to Joomla will perform better and load faster.
Available Extensions
In comparison to the ocean of WordPress plugins and themes, Joomla’s directory seems very tiny. Highly paid or custom-developed extensions are essential for most of Joomla website functionalities, increasing cost and time of development.
Community Support
WordPress has a giant community of millions of enthusiasts compared to the small community of Joomla developers/users. Poor support, lack of information, and lack of developers are frequent problems with Joomla!
Cost
Joomla development and components cost comparatively high; so does the custom development. However, this doesn’t mean that you will make a better website or digital solution live. WordPress is cost-convenient, powerful, and flexible.
Why is WordPress an ideal pick for
Enterprises over Joomla?
Switching your enterprise CMS from Joomla to WordPress can give you an edge over rivals. This simple step has limitless benefits, including – more customization capabilities, SEO-friendliness, security, support, and other features.
