Can you migrate our existing user accounts and passwords?

Yes. When migrating between frameworks, we implement password verification adapters (e.g. supporting legacy bcrypt/WordPress phpass hashes) that upgrade user hashes transparently upon login.

Will our business email (Google Workspace / Microsoft 365) be affected?

Never. We carefully isolate and verify all MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records prior to touching DNS so your email flow remains uninterrupted.

The Core Technical Bottleneck We SolveCost of Inaction: High

Platform migrations frequently go wrong when attempted without senior planning: broken 404 links that wipe out organic search rankings, corrupted database tables, lost customer passwords, extended downtime during DNS cutovers, and missing email DNS records.
