CMS migration services

We move enterprise content estates between platforms - AEM, Sitecore, TeamSite, WordPress, Drupal, Magnolia, headless - with AI-assisted tooling, a fixed budget envelope from discovery, and SEO continuity as a release blocker.

02 / What you get

How a noice migration is different

Migration is most of what we do, so we built a product for it and a method around it - instead of staffing a bench against a spreadsheet.

AI-assisted content move

Migration Accelerator crawls the source, infers content shape, and writes into the target platform's management API. Editorial approves in batches; nobody re-keys 2,000 pages.

SEO continuity guaranteed

301 map for every URL, server-rendered target, structured-data parity, Search Console + GA4 watch through warm-up. Continuity is a release blocker, not a line item.

Platform-agnostic advice

Magnolia Platinum Partner, but we migrate to whatever fits: headless, Drupal, bespoke. We are not paid by platform vendors and will say no to a bad fit.

Discovery with a fixed envelope

Two to four weeks of discovery produces a content inventory, integration map and a budget envelope you see before committing to the build.

Content triage, not bulk copy

30-50% of most estates is retired during migration. You pay to move the content that earns its place, not the 2014 campaign pages.

The build team stays on

SLA-backed managed services with 24/7 on-call and 99.98% uptime across the estates we run. Platform context does not vanish at go-live.

CMS migration: FAQ

The questions Australian teams ask before committing to a migration.

We work to our 2026 rate card (AUD 165 to AUD 275 per hour or AUD 1,320 to AUD 2,200 per day, ex GST). A focused single-site migration with a kept frontend can land under AUD 100k; large multi-site enterprise estates with a frontend rebuild run substantially higher. After a one-hour scoping call we give you an itemised range, and the discovery phase produces a fixed budget envelope before you commit to the build.

A typical Australian mid-market migration (one brand, 500 to 2,000 pages, a handful of integrations) runs twelve to twenty-two weeks end to end. The two biggest variables are whether the frontend is rebuilt at the same time and how much content transformation the move requires. Discovery gives you a dated plan, not a guess.

Not if continuity is treated as a release blocker, which is how we run it: a 301 redirect map for every URL, server-rendered HTML on the target, structured data parity, sitemap re-submission, and daily Search Console plus GA4 monitoring through the warm-up window. Some ranking turbulence in the first weeks is normal; permanent loss means something was skipped.

From: AEM, Sitecore, OpenText TeamSite, Drupal, WordPress, Squiz Matrix, Kentico, legacy and bespoke systems. To: Magnolia (we are a Platinum Partner), headless platforms like Contentful, Contentstack, Sanity and Strapi, Drupal and GovCMS alternatives, and modern bespoke stacks. We are platform-agnostic outside the Magnolia partnership and will tell you when a platform is the wrong fit.

Migration Accelerator is our AI-assisted migration product: it crawls the source CMS, infers content shape, and writes content into the target platform through its management API, with editorial approval in batches. It typically removes most of the manual content-loading effort. It is part of how we deliver, not a separate licence you are forced to buy, and for unusual targets we build a custom writer during the engagement.

Less than you think. On real enterprise estates, 30 to 50 percent of content is retired during migration: duplicate pages, expired campaigns, orphaned assets. We classify everything as migrate as-is, transform, rewrite or retire during planning, so you pay to move only the content that earns its place.

Yes - end-of-life platforms (old AEM versions, OpenText TeamSite, unsupported Kentico or Sitecore versions) are a large share of our migration work. The approach is the same five stages, with extra care on extraction since vendor support and documentation are usually gone. The longer an EOL platform runs, the higher the security and extraction risk, so earlier is cheaper.

Yes. Our migration case studies include the National Cancer Screening Register and Victorian government health programs, and the team has 10+ years of enterprise CMS experience in regulated environments. We run SLA-backed, 24/7 on-call managed services with 99.98% uptime across the estates we operate.
