Easily Migrate Your Store from Retail Pro to Shopify
Migrate your Retail Pro store to Shopify effortlessly with our expert Shopify migration agency. We handle data transfer, product import, and more for a successful transition.
Migration Process
Planning & Roadmapping
Each project begins with the gathering of functional and business requirements, as well as key project objectives, risks, stakeholders and timescales. We provide hands-on, strategic support and guidance to build out an achievable project roadmap with your team.
Data Analysis
Using tools such as Google Analytics, we’ll learn about your brand, products, customer base and current business performance. We may also install heat mapping software to better understand how your audience interacts with your store.
Consultation & Discovery
During functional workshop sessions with your team, we will identify the strengths of your current implementation and explore opportunities for new functionality to drive rapid growth. We’ll consult on integrations with third parties, back-end workflows, data configuration and more. At the end of this discovery phase, we will conduct a comprehensive audit of all core ecommerce business functions and your tech stack.
Migration
If you’re moving from any platform to shopify, we’ll outline our smooth, step-by-step process to carry over products, data, and customers seamlessly.
Design
Our UX designs represent an effortless marriage of form and function; working to drive conversions and provide a user-friendly experience for your customers, whilst still remaining beautiful to look at.
Bespoke Store Development
We’ll code a bespoke, high-performance Shopify Plus website, onto which we can safely migrate all customer data, orders and content from the original store.
We have particular expertise in subscription migration, having developed a robust process to handle subscription package and payment gateway migrations for existing subscribers. We help you to manage all communication with subscribers, ensuring they are kept updated with timely and relevant messages at key moments in the migration.
We will also set up 301 redirects to ensure visitors are directed to the correct site – essential for customer experience and SEO.
System Integrations
Our team can consult on and execute a wide range of integrations for your Shopify Plus store, expertly handling the intricacies involved with integrating third party platforms and apps. Whether through custom middleware development or leveraging integration platforms like Patchworks, we have extensive experience with:
- ERP and OMS systems, including Netsuite, Microsoft Dynamics, SAP and Linnworks
- CRM platforms such as Hubspot, Salesforce and Klaviyo
- Customer service solutions like Gorgias and Zendesk
Testing & Support
Both before and after your website launch, our QA team will test crucial components of your store’s performance – such as site speed, digital architecture, user journey and mobile friendliness – to ensure it’s optimised to engage customers and drive conversions. Our developers are also on hand to monitor your new website and provide bug support if necessary.
Growth
Once your new Shopify Plus website is up and running, our digital growth specialists can work with you to elevate your brand presence using commercially-focused ecommerce growth strategies, tailored to the unique requirements of your business. Find out more about Swanky’sGrowth Accelerator service.
