REASONS TO MIGRATE

Why migrate from SAP Commerce Cloud to Shopify Plus?

The ecommerce industry is seeing an acceleration in retailers looking to migrate from legacy digital commerce solutions like SAP Commerce Cloud (formerly Hybris) to Shopify Plus.

Hamstrung by costly and complex development work, with extensive training often needed just for general website maintenance, these brands are prioritising scalability and agility in their search for a new ecommerce platform.

For many SAP Commerce Cloud users, a migration to Shopify Plus is a compelling proposition. Shopify is capable of powering emergent challenger brands and leading enterprises alike, offering brands increased flexibility, access to a vast app and integration ecosystem, and a reduced total cost of ownership.

Shopify is already empowering some of the biggest and most complex companies in the world to take control of their commerce stacks and drive growth at pace – something that Commerce Components by Shopify, the platform’s enterprise-only offering, will only accelerate.

Discovery phase

For each of your required page templates, our UX designers will leverage insights from the discovery phase to craft compelling designs that marry form and function.

Third party platforms & apps

Our technical specialists have significant experience in the integration of third party platforms and apps, including ERP and OMS systems, CRM platforms, and customer service solutions.

During this phase, we will export your product data and work it into a Shopify-ready format so that it’s compatible with your new platform.

Shopify Plus store development

Swanky’s highly experienced development team will code a high-performance Shopify Plus store, including any bespoke development work necessary. If relevant, we’ll also handle the migration of subscription and payment gateway details in this phase.

Order & customer import data

Your order and customer data will be exported from your existing platform, configured into the correct format, and then imported into Shopify.

QA testing, support & training

A thorough QA period will ensure that your new website meets the functional specifications set out at the beginning of the project. During this phase, we can also provide training for your ecommerce team in core Shopify Plus functionality.

Final user acceptance testing

Following a final period of testing, your new Shopify Plus website will be ready to go live.

Everything went according to plan. It was a real relief to have it all done on time. Swanky were very good at laying out the plan of action, with what needed to happen and when. It was really straightforward.
