Your current platform served you well, but growth brings new requirements.

Platforms we migrate to Shopify
Starcodia has migrated stores from major ecommerce platforms:

Other platforms. Starcodia also migrates from Wix, Squarespace, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, custom platforms and legacy systems.
What a Shopify migration includes
Every migration is a structured project that addresses data, functionality, design and SEO:
Discovery and audit. Understand your current platform, customizations, integrations and data to plan the migration properly.
Data audits and cleanup. Audit and clean product, customer and order data before migration. Map custom fields to Shopify metafields.
Functionality mapping. Map current functionality (plugins, extensions, custom code) to Shopify equivalents using apps, native features or custom development.
SEO preservation. Protect organic visibility through URL mapping, 301 redirects and metadata migration.
Theme development. Build or adapt a Shopify theme that matches your brand via theme development services.
Integration work. Connect Shopify with ERP, accounting, fulfillment and other systems through integration services.
