Still Running an Old PrestaShop Version?

PrestaShop 1.6 reached end-of-life in 2019. Stores still running it are exposed to unpatched security vulnerabilities, incompatible payment modules, and hosting PHP requirements that are increasingly hard to meet.

But upgrading the wrong way can wipe out your customizations, break your theme, corrupt your product data, and tank your SEO rankings. I've completed 50+ migrations with a zero data-loss record and a zero-downtime process that keeps your store live throughout.
