Migrate from Unilog to Shopify Plus
REASONS TO MIGRATE
Why migrate from Unilog to Shopify?
Mounting costs, frequent bugs, confusing backend UI: all common challenges for retailers using B2B ecommerce platform Unilog. Frustrated by these issues, many users are considering the benefits of migrating to an alternative solution.
Compared to Unilog, Shopify represents a compelling option for B2B retailers. A more cost-effective, intuitive and reliable solution, it has become a genuine B2B contender thanks to a recent overhaul of its functionality and continued feature development. Brands can benefit from all the powerful capabilities that Shopify’s DTC offering is known for, combined with a whole host of innovative B2B features.
Highlights of Shopify’s value proposition for B2B retailers include:
- Ease of use – Shopify retailers consistently praise the platform’s intuitive, no-code UI. This enables teams to remain agile by implementing changes rapidly, without the need to engage support or enlist developers.
- Customised buying experiences – Brands can shape tailored experiences for every buyer, thanks to curated product catalogues, custom pricing, flexible payment terms, personalised storefronts and more.
- Optimised workflows – Modernise your business operations with powerful automation tools that streamline processes and increase efficiency.
- Self-serve purchasing – Delight buyers and free up your team members with quick bulk ordering, easy reordering, vaulted credit cards and intuitive account self-management.
- Robust integration solutions – Integrate with your preferred third-party tools for seamless data syncing, or use Shopify’s APIs to build custom integrations.
- Commitment to innovation – With a $1.7B R&D spend in 2023 and more than 200 feature and product updates released, Shopify is passionate about improving commerce experiences for both retailers and consumers alike.
- Reduced costs – On average, Shopify’s TCO is 33% better than its competitors’. When combined with the performance uplifts typically seen after migrating to Shopify, this could propel your brand to the next stage in your growth journey.
Ultimately, whilst each business’ needs are unique, we champion Shopify as the most innovative, versatile and dependable platform for B2B brands navigating the world of modern commerce.

HOW IT WORKS
B2B ecommerce migrations with Swanky
Migrating your B2B site to a different platform needn’t be a stressful process for your team. With extensive experience replatforming brands of all shapes and sizes to Shopify, our team is able to confidently navigate the complexities typically associated with transferring B2B data from one platform to another.
Discovery phase
After a detailed period of analysis, we will provide recommendations for a B2B commerce stack that will help you scale your business at pace. We’ll also be able to consult on any cross-border commerce requirements if necessary, as well as any bespoke solutions that may be required.
Web design
The aesthetics of your online store are no less important in B2B – after all, buyers’ expectations match those of their personal DTC shopping experiences. As such, we will create page designs that marry your branding with B2B UX best practices, commercial acumen and creativity.
Apps & integrations
Our integrations team can connect your Shopify store with any relevant third-party business systems. This could be through pre-built connectors, bespoke-developed middleware solutions, or integration platforms like Patchworks or Jitterbit.
Product data migration
Your assigned Project Manager will lead on the transfer of your product data from Unilog to Shopify, supported by our experienced in-house developers.
Development
We will code a high-performance Shopify website, along with any custom solutions defined in the project scope. Previous bespoke B2B development we’ve completed includes a custom credit solution and in-cart product weight checker.
Order & customer data migration
This next phase will focus on the transfer of your order and customer data. We will ensure its secure migration from Unilog to Shopify, accounting for any differences in the way this type of data is structured across the two platforms.
QA & UAT
Prior to launch, robust quality assurance and user acceptance testing will take place to ensure an error-free website that functions as expected.
Launch
We will provide support throughout the ‘go-live’ period, ensuring the launch of your new Shopify store is a success.
