We are the Sitecore to Magnolia migration experts

Sitecore’s complexity can pose challenges, particularly during the initial setup and configuration phases, which require significant technical expertise. Its cost structure may be prohibitive for smaller organisations, given the investment needed for licensing and ongoing maintenance. Additionally, the platform’s advanced features and customisation options can lead to lengthy implementation timelines. Users might also face a steep learning curve, and reliance on specialised development resources can further increase the time and costs associated with deploying and managing Sitecore solutions.

Magnolia shines if you’re the kind of organisation that genuinely needs the full DXP kitchen sink. It packs personalisation, workflows, multi-site orchestration, multilingual publishing, DAM, marketing automation hooks, and every enterprise acronym you can think of. If your teams run complex global content operations with strict governance, Magnolia’s mature permission system, stability, and long-standing enterprise reputation make it a safe, compliant option.

To be transparent, we don’t actually prefer or build with Magnolia (or any of the DXP-flavoured headless CMSs). They try to do everything, and like most jack-of-all-trades platforms, they don’t excel at the things modern teams actually need that is speed, flexibility, clean workflows, and sane pricing. We’d happily point you toward modern alternatives like Sanity that give you 10× the agility without the enterprise bloat.
