How to move from magento 1 to magento 2

[2012]

Hi guy im wondering how I could upgrade from magento 1 to magento 2 without the issues of rebuilding.

I also have some question
1. I magento 2 stable enough to switch yet ?
2. would it be a simple upgrade ?
3. would i need to have it rebuilt or would it be a simple upgrade ?
4. would upgrading make me look my google ranking ?
5. My site is only small, would I be better off sticking to magento and upgrading or switch over to wordpress ore opencart

Hi 2012,

Magento 2 is stable enough to switch but it's not a simple upgrade. Setting up 301 redirects for all the old -> new pages shouldn't impact Google rankings as long as it's done correctly.

Once you understand the work involved, you'll be in a better place to decide on the platform.

this thing has 40K files! I looked into it once and quickly moved onto something else.

Magento 1 or 2 or even 3, I would never use Magento, there are far easy / better products available. I did use it once when doing a comparison ecommerce review, never again though.
