Kentico is an enterprise CMS with high complexity, steep learning curves, expensive licensing, limited theme options, small plugin ecosystem, and dependency on specialized developers. WordPress is user-friendly, affordable, with 60,000+ plugins, thousands of themes, massive community, and easy management for non-technical users. Enterprises migrate to WordPress when they want simplified management, lower costs, more flexibility, and better user experience without technical complexity.

A basic Kentico site (under 50 pages) costs $8,000–$15,000. A medium site (50–150 pages) costs $15,000–$35,000. A large site (150+ pages with complex functionality) ranges from $35,000–$100,000+. EbizON provides detailed project assessment and fixed-price quotes after auditing your Kentico site.

A basic site takes 3–5 weeks. A medium site takes 5–10 weeks. A large site takes 10–20 weeks. EbizON works on staging servers so your live Kentico site stays fully operational throughout migration.

Not if done correctly. EbizON crawls all Kentico URLs, preserves every page’s URL structure, implements 301 redirects where URLs change, retains all meta titles/descriptions/canonical tags, maintains internal link structure, and monitors Google Search Console for 2 months post-launch. Most clients maintain or improve rankings due to WordPress’s superior SEO.

All pages, blog posts, custom content types, images, videos, media files, embedded content, custom fields, forms, user accounts, menu structures, publishing status, revisions, and custom database content are transferred. A content audit ensures 100% accuracy and identifies custom functionality needed in WordPress.

EbizON clients report 96% improved speed and 8x better performance on WordPress compared to Kentico. Kentico’s complex architecture causes performance overhead. WordPress’s optimized codebase, caching, CDN integration, and lean architecture enable dramatically faster page loads, improving SEO, reducing bounce rates, and increasing conversion rates by 20–25%.

Yes. You keep your domain. EbizON configures your domain to point to WordPress servers during launch with comprehensive DNS and SSL certificate configuration. Your domain and all URLs remain the same enabling 100% SEO retention and uninterrupted operations.

Kentico modules don’t transfer directly to WordPress. EbizON audits your Kentico functionality, identifies what you actually need, and rebuilds it with WordPress plugins or custom solutions. WordPress’s 60,000+ plugins provide solutions for virtually everything Kentico does often with superior functionality and easier management.

Absolutely. Kentico requires specialized developer knowledge for most tasks. WordPress is designed for non-technical users: intuitive admin interface, easy page building with page builders (Elementor, Divi), simple content management, no coding required for most tasks. Your marketing team can manage content independently, reducing developer dependency and speeding up content publishing.
