## reasons to choose Laioutr as a Frontastic alternative

### Truly stack-independent.

Whether Shopify, Shopware, SAP, commercetools, Adobe Commerce or Salesforce Commerce Cloud: Laioutr connects 50+ backends. As commercetools Frontend, Frontastic is now geared towards the commercetools stack. With Laioutr, the architecture stays open and swappable, including multi-brand setups with different backends.

### Live faster, without a custom build.

Blueprints, a UI library with 70+ components and the visual editor Studio provide a productive base from day one. Teams adapt instead of building components from scratch. A pilot is usually live within 14 days.

### DACH-first support & clear plans

German-language support, personal founder contact and a plan structure that starts with the Growth package. EU hosting is available and GDPR-compliant out of the box. Founder-led migration is standard, not an extra.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

## Questions about Laioutr vs. Frontastic

How does the migration from Frontastic to Laioutr work?

The migration runs together with the team: existing page structures, components, CMS content and backend connections are transferred, tested and adapted to Laioutr standards. Blueprints and the UI library replace a large part of the custom build. Founder-led migration is standard, not an extra, and takes under 14 days at the median.

Can we keep using commercetools with Laioutr?

Yes. commercetools is one of the 50+ pre-integrated backends in Laioutr. The existing commerce stack stays, only the frontend layer is replaced. If further backends are to run in parallel later, for example for multi-brand setups with different stacks, Laioutr supports that natively.

What sets Laioutr Studio apart from Frontastic Studio?

Both offer a visual editor for marketing teams. The difference lies in the starting point: Laioutr Studio comes with a UI library of 70+ components, Blueprints and four Themes, so marketing teams build pages from day one. With Frontastic, the available component set depends on the respective project setup.

How fast do we go live with Laioutr compared to Frontastic?

A pilot on an established backend such as Shopify, Shopware or commercetools is usually live with Laioutr within 14 days, and the guided migration takes under 14 days at the median. With Frontastic, project duration depends mainly on the share of custom development.

What about hosting, data protection, and compliance?

EU hosting is available, further regions (US, APAC) on request, GDPR-compliant out of the box, and regional data residency is possible. Cloud/Edge Hosting is available as an add-on. WCAG 3.0 Ready and a DPA on request complete the picture, which matters for regulated industries such as financial services or the public sector.

Can we really steer multi-brand and multi-market centrally with Laioutr?

Yes. Laioutr is built for [multi-brand and multi-market](https://www.laioutr.com/en/product/multi-brand-multi-market): brands and markets are architecturally unlimited, and setups with up to a double-digit number of brand-market combinations are live. Marketing teams manage content centrally, while sub-brands keep control of their design through design tokens.

How does Laioutr's pricing compare?

The Growth and Pro packages are described on the [commerce pricing page](https://www.laioutr.com/en/pricing/commerce), and Enterprise is offered individually. For a fair comparison with Frontastic, it makes sense to look at licence, implementation and operations together. With Laioutr, hosting is an add-on and not included in the licence.

How quickly do we get support with Laioutr?

Platform support works with response times by severity, and critical cases are handled around the clock. The Pro plan includes guaranteed response times, and the Enterprise package adds a dedicated Customer Success Manager. On top of that, there is direct founder contact and German-language support.

Do we get help switching from Frontastic?

Yes. For brands moving from an existing frontend platform, an architecture workshop, a migration plan, adapting Blueprint and design tokens to the existing design system and guidance through to go-live are standard. Founder-led migration comes at no extra charge.

What happens to our existing frontend code?

Reusable components, designs and content can be carried over into Laioutr, and the existing design system is reproduced through design tokens and the UI library. Custom logic from Frontastic components is assessed in the migration workshop: native Laioutr features cover most of it, the rest runs as an app via the Laioutr App Store.

Is Frontastic the only commercetools frontend?

No. Frontastic is the official but not the only commercetools frontend. Alternatives include a custom build with Next.js or Nuxt, a frontend framework such as [Alokai (formerly Vue Storefront)](https://www.laioutr.com/en/laioutr-und-alokai-im-vergleich), or an Agentic Frontend Management Platform like Laioutr. The [commercetools frontend](https://www.laioutr.com/en/headless-frontend-for-commercetools) page gives an overview of all options.

What alternatives to Frontastic exist as a commercetools frontend?

Three routes: Frontastic as the official frontend in the commercetools stack, a custom build with Next.js, Nuxt or Alokai, or an independent Agentic Frontend Management Platform like Laioutr. Which option suits which team is covered on the [commercetools frontend](https://www.laioutr.com/en/headless-frontend-for-commercetools) page, including a comparison table, migration timelines and answers on multi-project setups, stores and B2B features.
