from $149 ⏱ Onboard within 3 business days πŸ›‘ 30-day trial month

What's included

Base scope of work β€” applies to all tiers. See the tier comparison below for hours and SLA specifics.

πŸ›‘

Security patching

Adobe security patches and quarterly releases applied on schedule, tested on staging before they touch production.

πŸ”„

Updates on staging

Core and extension updates are compatibility-checked and tested on a staging copy first, never blind on the live store.

πŸ’Ύ

Daily backups

Automated daily backups with tested restores, so a bad deploy or a hack is a rollback, not a disaster.

πŸ“‘

Uptime and error monitoring

We watch uptime, error rates, and key transactions, so we usually know before you do.

⚑

Performance work

On Growth and SLA, we track and tune speed as catalog and traffic grow, before it becomes a checkout problem.

πŸ“ž

A named channel and response SLA

A real way to reach us with a committed response time per tier, credited if we miss it on SLA.

How we work

Transparent process β€” you always know what stage we're at and what comes next.

1

Store audit

We review your Magento version, patch level, extensions, backups, and performance baseline, then flag the urgent risks first.

2

Stabilize

Outstanding security patches, backup setup, and monitoring go in before anything else, so the store is safe while we settle in.

3

Pick a tier

Based on the audit and how much downtime costs you, we recommend Essential, Growth, or SLA. You can change tiers later.

4

Ongoing support

Scheduled patching and updates, monitoring, and your committed response time, with a monthly summary of what we did.

Pricing tiers

Pick the level that fits your size and required response time. You can switch tiers between months.

Essential
$149 /mo

Security patches, core and extension updates on staging, daily backups, uptime monitoring, email support with next-business-day response. For stable stores that need to stay patched and backed up.

Choose
Growth
$499 /mo

Everything in Essential plus same-day response, performance monitoring, a staging environment, and a monthly block of development hours for small fixes. For stores where a slow week costs revenue.

Choose

Everything in Growth plus 24/7 cover, one-hour response on critical issues, a dedicated engineer, and Adobe Commerce support. For stores where an hour of downtime is a serious number.

What's NOT included

Scope transparency β€” no surprises in the monthly report.

  • βˆ’ Large redesigns or replatforming β€” New builds, redesigns, and Magento 1 to 2 migrations are separate projects, not retainer work.
  • βˆ’ Adobe Commerce license fees β€” The Adobe Commerce license is paid to Adobe directly; our retainer covers the work, not the license.
  • βˆ’ Third-party hosting costs β€” Server and hosting bills are billed by your host. We manage the store; we don't resell the infrastructure.

What we'll need from you

Access we require β€” passed via secure channel (1Password / Bitwarden).

  • β†’ Magento admin (System Administrator role)
  • β†’ Server or hosting access (SSH or control panel)
  • β†’ Git repository access, if the build is version-controlled
  • β†’ A staging environment, or permission for us to set one up

FAQ

How much does Magento support cost?

Our plans start at $149/month for Essential (patching, backups, monitoring, next-business-day response), $499/month for Growth (same-day response plus development hours), and from $1,500/month for an SLA tier with 24/7 cover and one-hour critical response. We publish the floor so you’re not negotiating blind.

Do you support Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source?

Both, on Magento 2.4 and up. Adobe Commerce gets official platform support from Adobe, but that doesn’t cover your specific build or integrations, which is what our retainer handles. Magento Open Source has no vendor support, so a retainer is the whole safety net.

I'm still on Magento 1. Can you support it?

Magento 1 reached end of life in 2020 and no longer receives security patches, so it can’t be made safe with support alone. The right move is a migration to Magento 2, which we handle as a separate project.

What response time do you actually commit to?

Next business day on Essential, same day on Growth, and one hour for critical issues on the SLA tier with 24/7 cover. The SLA response is a written commitment, and we credit you if we miss it.

Is there a long contract?

No long lock-in. Plans are billed monthly and you can change or cancel. The first month is a trial: if we don’t deliver what we promised, you don’t pay for it.

What does Magento support include?

Security patching, core and extension updates tested on staging, daily backups, uptime and error monitoring, and a named channel with a committed response time. Growth and SLA add performance work and development hours.

Most Magento support pages say the same three things: 24/7, certified experts, fast response. Then they hide the price behind a “request a quote” form. We do it the other way around. Here are the tiers, the prices, and the response times we actually commit to, so you can decide before you talk to anyone.

We support both Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce, on Magento 2.4 and up. If you’re still on Magento 1, that platform reached end of life in 2020 and no longer gets security patches, so the only real support is a migration, which we also do.

What Magento support actually covers

A Magento store is not a set-and-forget site. Adobe ships scheduled security patches and quarterly releases, extensions need compatibility checks, and a busy store will hit performance walls as the catalog and traffic grow. Support is the work that keeps all of that from turning into an outage during a sale.

Our retainers cover security patching, core and extension updates tested on staging first, daily backups, uptime and error monitoring, and a named channel to reach us when something breaks. Bigger tiers add performance work and development hours.

Plans and response times

Three tiers, billed monthly, no long lock-in. Pick by how much downtime costs you, not by store size alone.

  • Essential, $149/month. Security patches, core and extension updates on staging, daily backups, uptime monitoring, email support with next-business-day response. For stable stores that mainly need to stay patched and backed up.
  • Growth, $499/month. Everything in Essential plus same-day response, performance monitoring, a staging environment, and a block of development hours each month for small fixes and changes. For stores where a slow week costs real revenue.
  • SLA, from $1,500/month. Everything in Growth plus 24/7 cover, one-hour response on critical issues, a dedicated engineer who knows your build, and Adobe Commerce support. For stores where an hour of downtime is a serious number.

The response times are commitments, not aspirations. If we miss a critical-issue window on the SLA tier, that’s on us, and we credit it. That’s the difference between a published SLA and a marketing line.

Why we publish prices when competitors don’t

The “request a quote” wall exists so the agency can size the number to how desperate you sound on the call. We’d rather you know the floor going in. A real store’s support cost depends on its complexity, so the SLA tier starts at $1,500 and scales with dedicated hours, but you won’t get a surprise five-figure proposal for basic patching and monitoring.

Adobe Commerce or Magento Open Source

We support both. Adobe Commerce (the licensed version, with annual fees that start around $22,000) gets official Adobe support, but that covers the platform, not your specific build, integrations, or the extension that broke after the last update. That gap is what an agency retainer fills. Magento Open Source has no vendor support at all, so a retainer isn’t optional, it’s the whole safety net.

If you want a straight answer on which tier fits your store, we’ll look at it first. See the rest of our Magento development services, our Magento development work, or start at the Magento hub.
