Magento & Shopify Migration Service
How To Migrate E-commerce Platforms
Endertech can help you migrate between Magento and Shopify, in either direction.
For simple sites, the process can be straightforward... export data, import data, configure a theme, configure e-commerce settings... and flip a switch!
But many times, it's not as straightforward as that. Usually, platform migrations are motivated by a desire to take advantage of new technology, or to improve upon systems that seemed to be poorly cobbled together.
In these cases, the guidance of an experienced hand can make the difference between an exciting project that opens your eyes to new possibilities, and a frustrating repeat of history.
Every successful development project at Endertech begins with a plan. That plan will include written details and visualizations.
We develop plans through a collaborative process involving consultations, research, brainstorming, and creativity. We want to get to know you, your business, your systems and your goals.
As we get more and more acquainted, we'll be able to capture your vision in writing and designs and show it to you so that you can approve. With clear project blueprints that everyone agrees to, we can then proceed with development.
The first step to focus on in any migration project is the proper movement of data from one platform to the other.
Each platform has its own requirements for data format and its own techniques for dealing with custom data.
Our deep experience with database design, custom software development, and the intricacies of both platforms give us a unique advantage in executing this complex part of the migration process.
Failure to properly structure data for your new platform spells doom for your project from the start.
Of course the user experience is ultimately your highest priority. After all, the UX will determine the satisfaction level of your customer.
Both platforms have completely different systems for implementing frontend design and logic. Fortunately, we know both platforms very well and can implement any frontend feature you can imagine.
Many small businesses will need nothing more than a standard configuration of backend e-commerce logistics like shipping rules, tax, policies, and payment methods.
However, if you're an enterprise client, you may have complex requirements for backend integration with your fulfillment systems.
Again, both Magento and Shopify have completely different APIs for interacting with their database programmatically, and people experienced with custom API development will be the most effective in designing and implementing integrations.
You will want to engage an organization that has robust testing policies and practices to ensure your site is functioning as it should.
You'll also want to make sure your selected vendor has DevOps staff well versed in how to set up hosting solutions and manage network configurations.
And lastly, you'll want a long-term partner, who will be available and provide resources to support you as your new e-commerce site grows.
Fortunately, you've found Endertech! We have it all, in-house.
