What’s involved in a Herd migration?
A Herd migration feels effortless - because that’s exactly how we build it.
Our migration approach combines technical Shopify knowledge, with user experience best practices, supplemented by input from our SEO and Paid media teams. From Discovery to Launch, we take the guesswork out of Shopify migrations, meaning you can be confident in our plan.
Discovery
Built around uncovering everything we need to know about your brand.
The discovery process includes multiple layers, from assessing a brands technology stack and architecture, to creating website designs, through to prototyping solutions.
The output from discovery is a signed-off project plan everyone can get behind.
For Chilly’s, our discovery highlighted opportunities to consolidate their technology stack significantly, reducing technology costs and simplifying processes.
Integrations
Our software engineering team are experts in Shopify Plus integrations.
We work with partners like Klaviyo, Zendesk, Analyzify and Channable to name just a few – allowing data to flow seamlessly between your store and third-party apps, enhancing Shopify’s capabilities far beyond its built-in features.
We build custom integrations, where required, including a Microsoft Dynamics integration for Chilly’s.
We also complete any data loading, including products, customers, orders and more, where required.
Theme & bespoke development
Our team of skilled Shopify developers bring the vision to life, ensuring eCommerce functionality from your existing platform is replicated, or improved on.
A scrum framework is followed to ensure transparency and to promote regular comms with progress demonstrations.
Quality control is at the heart of everything we do with testing completed during each sprint.
Release testing & UAT
End-to-end release testing is completed to make sure our solution meets the brief.
After this, we move into a UAT phase.
During UAT we support your teams through regular check-ins, and a streamlined process for raising and addressing fixes in a timely manner.
Launch
We work collaboratively across our development and performance marketing teams, as well as your key stakeholders to ensure a seamless go-live.
But it doesn’t stop there – post-launch we make sure to include regular triage sessions and bug fixing. No stone is left unturned.
