Migrating from Duda to VuePress makes the most sense if you're experiencing per-site pricing makes it expensive at scale or outgrowing Duda's architecture. VuePress is best for technical documentation sites in the vue.js ecosystem.
You should migrate if: your Duda site is slow, your hosting costs are climbing, you need more control over your code, or you want to adopt a modern JAMstack architecture.
You might want to stay if: your Duda site benefits from white-label platform — agencies can brand it as their own and you don't have JavaScript developers on your team. Duda is genuinely easy to use, and that simplicity has value.
The migration itself is straightforward with LeaveWP — enter your Duda URL, select VuePress, and download your content. The more important question is whether VuePress's architecture fits your team's skills and your project's long-term needs.
