Magento developers for thousands of SKUs, prices that change by customer group and several storefronts from one admin. Scale builds start at AED 18,500. Magento is heavy on purpose, and it only earns that weight on certain stores.

When your catalogue is large, your pricing is conditional and one storefront is not enough. Magento handles tens of thousands of SKUs, customer-group pricing, several storefronts from one admin and B2B behaviour such as quotes and company accounts.
If none of that describes you, Magento is the wrong answer and we will say so. It costs more to host, more to build and more to maintain than Shopify or WooCommerce, and specialists are harder to hire in this market.
One starting point, then a written scope. Catalogue size, store views, pricing rules and the ERP you sync with set the final figure.
For large catalogues, several storefronts, B2B pricing or an ERP that owns the stock.

Not included in any tier: the platform subscription, payment gateway and instalment fees, paid apps and product data entry beyond the limit. Gateway accounts are opened in your name with your bank.
Under a few hundred products with one price each? The Starter and Growth stores on Shopify or WooCommerce will cost you far less to run.
Attribute sets, categories and indexing designed so search and filtering stay fast as your catalogue grows.
Tiered, contract and negotiated pricing per group. This is usually the reason a business is on Magento at all.
Several storefronts, languages or brands from one installation, with shared inventory where you want it.
Local gateway integration, instalment providers and 5% VAT configured across every store view.
Stock, orders and invoices moving between Magento and the system your operations team already uses.
Caching, indexer strategy and upgrades you can actually run, because an unmaintained Magento becomes a security problem quickly.
The two editions solve different problems and cost very differently.

We would rather talk you out of it now than rebuild you off it in two years.
Ownership, deadlines and defects are where web projects go wrong. We put all three in the contract, not just on this page.
Repository, hosting and domain credentials are in your name before we write a line of code. Not handed over at the end, not held as leverage.
Milestone dates are fixed in writing before the project starts. You always know what ships next and when.
Anything that breaks because of how we built it gets fixed free for 90 days after launch.
Magento and Adobe Commerce builds start at AED 18,500 (USD 5,040) and take ten to sixteen weeks. The figure rises with catalogue size, the number of store views and languages, customer-group pricing rules and ERP or inventory integration. Adobe Commerce licences and hosting are billed separately in your name.
For the stores it was designed for, yes. Large catalogues, customer-group pricing, multiple storefronts and B2B workflows are still things Magento does natively that lighter platforms need extensions or a higher plan to approximate. For a straightforward retail catalogue it is more platform than the job needs.
More than Shopify or WooCommerce, and the hosting is the part people underestimate. Magento needs real server resources plus search and caching services, and it needs a web developer who knows the platform for upgrades. Budget for hosting, maintenance and periodic upgrades from the start rather than discovering them in year two.
Yes, and it is a common request when a business finds it is paying for capability it never used. Products, customers and order history migrate, URLs are mapped so rankings survive and the difficult part is usually replicating pricing rules on a platform with fewer of them. We check that those rules can be reproduced before recommending the move.
Magento 1 reached end of life and no longer receives security patches, so running a store on it is a live risk rather than a theoretical one. We do not maintain Magento 1 as a long-term arrangement. What we do is plan and run the migration to Magento 2 or to a lighter platform if the requirements no longer justify Magento.
Yes. Magento supports multiple store views with their own language and layout direction, so an Arabic right-to-left storefront is native rather than bolted on. UAE gateways including Telr, PayTabs, Network International and Stripe have Magento integrations, and 5% VAT is configured per store view.
