We handle the entire migration together with you: existing page structures, components, CMS content, and backend connections are transferred, tested, and adapted to Laioutr standards. Thanks to our themes and UI library, most of the custom build you originally had to invest in for Frontastic falls away. Most migrations are productive within a few weeks.

Yes. commercetools is one of the 19+ pre-integrated backend options in Laioutr. You keep your existing commerce stack and only swap out the frontend layer. If you later want to use additional or parallel backends (e.g., for multi-brand with different stacks), Laioutr supports that natively.

Both offer a visual page builder for marketing teams. The difference lies in the starting point: Frontastic Studio requires a custom build phase in which components first have to be built. Laioutr Studio comes with a complete UI library and themes — your marketing teams are productive from day 1, instead of waiting for the component setup.

Standard replatformings on an established backend (Shopify, Shopware, commercetools, and the like) go live with Laioutr in four to eight weeks. Frontastic projects are typically scoped as 6- to 12-month implementation efforts, because a larger share of custom build work is required.

Laioutr hosts on Laioutr Cloud (EU, GDPR-compliant), on Vercel, or in your own hosting environment (Bring Your Own Hosting) — your choice. We offer WCAG 3.0 Ready, a DPA on request, and EU data residency — critical for regulated industries (DORA, financial services, public sector).

Yes. Laioutr is built natively for multi-brand and multi-market scenarios. Up to unlimited projects, markets, and domains on the Enterprise plan, with central administration and granular roles. Marketing teams manage content centrally, while sub-brands keep full control over their design.

We publish our plan structure transparently on our pricing page. Three plans (Growth / Pro / Enterprise) cover everything from a single storefront to a global brand portfolio. Frontastic is positioned as an enterprise solution and only shares pricing via sales quotes — so a direct price comparison is only possible after requesting an individual quote.

On the Pro plan you get guaranteed response SLAs; on the Enterprise plan you also get a dedicated Customer Success Manager. Slack Connect, direct founder access, and German-language support are unique in the DACH market — Frontastic operates primarily internationally and without a DACH-specific support model.

Yes. We offer a dedicated switch program for brands moving from an existing frontend platform. An architecture workshop, a migration plan, themes tailored to your design system, and hands-on guidance all the way to go-live are standard.

Reusable components, designs, and content can be carried over into Laioutr. The Laioutr UI Library lets you reproduce your existing design system. Custom logic that lived in Frontastic custom components is assessed in the migration workshop — most of it we solve with native Laioutr means, the rest runs as an app in the Laioutr App Store.

No. Frontastic is the official but not the only commercetools frontend. Alternatives include a custom build with Next.js, Nuxt, or Vue Storefront, and an independent Frontend Management Platform like Laioutr. See all options on our commercetools frontend page.

Three routes: Frontastic as the official frontend inside the ct stack, a custom build with Next.js, Nuxt, or Vue Storefront, or an independent Frontend Management Platform. Which option suits which team is covered in detail on our commercetools frontend page, including a comparison table, migration timelines, and answers on multi-project setups, stores, and B2B features.
