CMS Migration Difficulty Quiz — Estimate Complexity, Cost and Timeline

What you get

A directional read on your migration complexity

The quiz is a structured filter. It surfaces the factors that drive real cost and timeline before you commit to a platform, a scope, or a vendor conversation.

Difficulty band

Low, medium, high, or very high — based on your platform pair, content model, SEO risk, integrations, and operational constraints.

Directional cost range

A ballpark budget range grounded in the specific drivers your answers surface, not a one-size-fits-all number.

Timeline estimate

A rough delivery window based on scope complexity, timeline pressure, and the source-to-target platform pair.

Top cost drivers

The factors from your answers that push complexity up — useful for scoping conversations, audits, and early budgeting.

FAQ

About the migration quiz

How long does the quiz take?

About 2 minutes. The quiz covers your platform pair, content structure, SEO exposure, integrations, and timeline pressure. Platform-specific questions appear based on your chosen source CMS.

Is the result a real quote?

No. The output is a directional estimate based on known complexity patterns for each CMS pair and project type. It is a decision filter, not a substitute for a proper content audit and scoping session.

Which CMS pairs are covered?

WordPress, Payload, Sanity, Contentful, Strapi, and a grouped legacy-builder bucket covering Webflow, Wix, and Squarespace-style platforms. The model is grounded in Payload-adjacent migrations but covers general CMS-to-CMS patterns.

What happens after I submit my contact details?

Your result and answers are stored, and you will receive a copy by email. There is no obligation and no sales follow-up unless you ask for one.

If the estimate shows meaningful complexity, the next step is a proper content inventory and architecture review.

Use the result as a starting point for a scoping conversation, not a final budget.
