Migration from 1C-Bitrix Migration from 1C-Bitrix to another CMS — BB STUDIO to WordPress or OpenCart

We move websites and online stores from 1C-Bitrix to WordPress, OpenCart or our own CMS — keeping the design, content and page URLs so that you do not lose your Google rankings. A company website starts at ₴12,900, an online store at ₴29,900.

While we build the new site, your current Bitrix site can move to our hosting for free and keep running smoothly. No prepayment, fully official, under a contract.

Migration from 1C-Bitrix to another CMS — BB STUDIO

Why businesses are leaving 1C-Bitrix

1C-Bitrix is a Russian platform. Since April 2023, Bitrix24 has been under 10-year sanctions imposed by Ukraine’s National Security and Defence Council (NSDC); its cloud service was switched off for Ukraine on 1 June 2023, and boxed versions run under a restricted licence. There is no legal way to pay the Russian vendor for a licence renewal or updates from Ukraine.

A Bitrix site does not shut down — it simply stops getting updates. Without core and module updates, vulnerabilities pile up, integrations start failing over time, and finding a developer willing to work with Bitrix gets harder every year.

We move your site to a platform you control: WordPress for company sites and blogs, OpenCart or WooCommerce for stores, and our CMS when you need a simple admin panel without plugins. We carry over the design, copy, products, URLs and redirects so that search engines take the move in their stride.

If your site exchanges data with 1C or BAS, we keep the integration: we set up catalogue, price and stock exchange with the new platform.

1C-Bitrix migration pricing

The price depends on the number of pages and products, the integrations and whether we keep the design as it is. We name the exact amount after an audit, before we start.

Prices are for moving to WordPress, OpenCart, WooCommerce or our CMS with the design preserved. A large corporate site starts at ₴19,900; a new design, 1C or BAS exchange and non-standard modules are quoted separately. Hosting during the migration is at our regular rates, and moving your current Bitrix site to us is free.

The risks of staying on Bitrix

Migrating is a project of a few weeks. Putting it off means piling up risks that are beyond your control.

No security updates

Without an active licence, the core and modules do not get updated. New vulnerabilities in the old code stay open.

Legal and reputational risks

Sanctions against Bitrix24 and a growing list of prohibited software: Russian software raises more and more questions in counterparty checks and tenders.

A shortage of developers

Ukrainian studios are dropping Bitrix, so any changes get slower and more expensive, and you depend more and more on a single contractor.

Old PHP

Old Bitrix cores do not run on PHP 8. When the host switches off PHP 7, the site may simply stop opening.

What we move over from 1C-Bitrix

We do not rebuild the site “page by page, by hand” — we migrate the data straight from the database: it is faster, more accurate and nothing gets lost.

01

Design and layout

We move your current design to a template on the new CMS, so the site looks the same. If the design is long overdue for a refresh, we do the redesign as a separate stage after the move.

02

Infoblock content

Pages, news, articles, documents, galleries — from Bitrix infoblocks into the matching sections of the new CMS, SEO fields included.

03

Catalogue and orders

Products, SKUs, properties, prices, stock and photos. If needed, customers and order history too.

04

URLs and 301 redirects

We keep page URLs or set up a 301 redirect from every old URL to its new one, so the site keeps its Google rankings.

05

Integrations

1C or BAS exchange, payments, delivery, CRM, analytics and ad pixels — we set them up on the new platform and test them.

06

An admin panel your team understands

We show you how to add products and news in the new CMS and give your managers a short guide.

Why businesses leave Bitrix with us

  • We run our own 1C-Bitrix hosting: your current site moves to us for free and keeps working while we build the new one.
  • We migrate data from the database instead of copying it by hand, so products, properties and SEO fields do not get lost.
  • We build sites on WordPress, OpenCart and our own CMS, so we recommend the platform that fits the job, not the one we are used to.
  • We take care of SEO: URLs, meta tags and redirects are carried over so your Google rankings stay put.
  • No prepayment: you pay as agreed or under the contract; we are a Ukrainian sole proprietor (FOP, 3rd group), not VAT-registered.

How a migration from Bitrix works

A company website usually takes 2–3 weeks, an online store 4–6 weeks. Your old site keeps working the whole time.

  1. Audit and choice of CMS

    We look at the structure, infoblocks, catalogue, modules and integrations. Then we recommend a platform and name the price.

  2. New site on a copy

    We move the design and the data from the Bitrix database to the new CMS and set up modules, payments and delivery.

  3. Redirects and testing

    We map old URLs to new ones, set up 301 redirects, and check the forms, cart and speed.

  4. Launch and monitoring

    We switch the domain, submit the new sitemap to Google and keep an eye on indexing over the first few weeks.

Common mistakes when leaving Bitrix

These are why sites lose traffic after a move — and we steer clear of them.

  1. The new site goes live without 301 redirects, so old URLs from Google return 404.
  2. Products are moved without their properties and SKUs, so the catalogue filters come up empty.
  3. Infoblock SEO fields get lost, and page titles and descriptions all end up the same.
  4. Files and documents in the /upload/ folder are forgotten, so links to manuals and price lists break.
  5. The 1C exchange is not carried over, so prices and stock on the new site are out of date by the very next day.
  6. Design, structure and URLs are all changed at once, and afterwards nobody can tell what actually affected traffic.
  7. The old site is deleted right after launch, leaving nothing to go back to and check the data against.

1C-Bitrix migration FAQ

A company website starts at ₴12,900, a large corporate site at ₴19,900, and an online store on OpenCart or WooCommerce at ₴29,900. The price depends on the number of pages and products, the integrations and the design. We name the amount after an audit, before we start.

For a company site or blog, WordPress or our CMS: both have a simple admin panel and are inexpensive to maintain. For a store, OpenCart or WooCommerce: they have modules for Nova Poshta, LiqPay, monobank and exchange with 1C or BAS. We choose after the audit, based on how your business works.

No, as long as page URLs are kept or 301 redirects are set up from every old URL, meta tags are carried over and the sitemap is updated. We do this for every page and product, and after launch we watch indexing in Google Search Console.

Yes. We move the design to a template on the new CMS, and visitors will see the same site. If the design is outdated, we can do a redesign, but it is better to keep these as separate stages.

We set up catalogue, price and stock exchange with the new platform via the standard CommerceML protocol or an exchange module. We check it with a test upload before launch so the prices on the site do not go out of date.

Yes. We will move your current site to us for free, match PHP to your core — anything from 5.6 to 8.5 — and set up cron for agents. Details are on the 1C-Bitrix hosting page.
