Hi,

I'm currently using Magento 1.5 and wish to perform the upgrade to 2.3. What is the fastest way of doing that?
Thanks!

Hi @sarah_marsters 

You can upgrade using Data migration tool.

It is not possible to direct migrate form Magento 1.5.1.0 to 2.3.x because when you install migration tool you will get minimum version is 1.6.0.0.

I suggest you to first upgrade to 1.9.4.3 and then migrate to magento 2.3.x

I hope it will help you!

I hope it will help you!

@sarah_marstersNot sure what do you mean by fastest way. Will try to list down different component of migration. Depends on what all component you want you can determine your timeline.

Following are the items need to take care off:

1. Data (core Magento)

2. Customer Extension data (3rd party or your own developed)

3. 3rd Party Modules.

4. Any customization you may have.

5. Theme / Design

Migration time depends on how customized & complex is your M1 is. What all modules and functionalities you want to retain etc..
