The world of ecommerce never stands still, and a growing number of major brands are migrating from Magento to Shopify.
According to a recent study, more than a thousand major brands have already embarked on this digital journey.
This change has 8 major advantages worth exploring to overcome what’s holding you back:
- Transaction fees and monthly costs
Although Shopify charges monthly fees, it also offers a wide range of built-in features and services that can make its total cost of ownership lower than Magento’s.
Shopify has a thriving ecosystem of apps and developers, making it easier to find tailored solutions that replicate and improve the features you already use in your Magento store.
Shopify has invested significantly in SEO, helping minimise any potential impact on search rankings during migration.
- Specific logistics systems
Shopify integrates with a wide range of logistics solutions and also offers its own, Shopify Fulfillment Network, which could simplify your logistics.
- Extension incompatibility
Although some Magento extensions may not have direct equivalents on Shopify, Shopify’s extensive app ecosystem can offer similar or better functionality.
Shopify is known for its intuitive, easy-to-use interface, which can reduce the time needed to train your team.
Shopify offers a range of tools and services to help ensure your data is transferred securely and completely.
Although Shopify may seem less customisable than Magento at code level, its wide range of themes and apps lets you create highly customised, attractive stores.
Shopify Plus is a powerful, scalable and efficient platform.
It also offers a more intuitive interface and a tailored solution that can accommodate custom development and specific logistics needs.
