The real cost of a migration done wrong
Most migration disasters are predictable — and preventable. Here is what's actually at risk.
The average cost of enterprise downtime during a botched cutover. A weekend of outage can erase a quarter of SEO gains.
Broken redirects and missing metadata after migration routinely drop organic traffic for months before recovery.
Migrations without integrity checks silently corrupt taxonomies, media references and relationship fields.
Migrations attempted without a phased plan overrun their timeline by an average of 240% once edge cases surface.
