Magento & Hyvä Consultant
Independent Magento advice from someone who has built on it for a decade.
Magento is a complex platform with a high cost of ownership. The decisions you make about architecture, extensions, and hosting have long-term commercial consequences that most agencies won't tell you about, because they benefit from the complexity.
Independent Magento consultancy means honest advice: whether to stay, whether to move to Hyvä, or whether it's time to leave the platform. The answer your business needs, not the answer that generates the most agency revenue.
Common Questions
The decisions most Magento brands face.
Should I stay on Magento?
Magento makes sense when you have complex B2B requirements, customer-specific pricing, multi-store architecture, or deep ERP integrations that simpler platforms can't handle. If you're on Magento because that's what was built, the answer may be different.
Is Hyvä worth it?
For most Magento stores, yes. Hyvä delivers 60-90% performance improvements over Luma frontend with a fraction of the development overhead. If frontend performance is your problem and your backend works, Hyvä is often the right answer before considering a full replatform.
When should I move to Shopify Plus?
When the complexity of Magento is creating more cost and risk than the platform-specific capabilities justify. Not because Shopify is simpler (it's not always), but because the total cost of ownership calculation changes at certain points in a brand's growth.
