Advantage
Deep technical work, delivered like an artisan.
01
One name on every commit.
Shopware-certified lead engineer with 8+ years of hands-on Shopware work. For larger efforts, a vetted network of trusted contractors scales capacity while the certified lead owns architecture, code review, and delivery. Accountability stays with one person, not dispersed across a faceless team.
02
Measured before changed.
Before touching code, we baseline the current state: query profiling, Lighthouse budgets, cache-hit analysis, conversion-funnel review. Every optimisation ships with a documented before/after, so impact is visible in numbers.
03
Support beyond launch.
A Shopware store isn't finished on go-live day. Security patches, Shopware minor and major upgrades, performance reviews, and on-demand engineering hours keep the codebase healthy. Retainer tiers with response-time commitments are available for stores where drift compounds quickly.

Engagement
Three shapes, one paid discovery.
Every serious engagement starts with a paid discovery. Then pick the shape that matches your need.
Step 1
Paid discovery
4-8 hours to audit your codebase and constraints, then deliver a written scope, risk register, and quote.
Step 2
Delivery
Fixed-scope, retainer, or dedicated capacity. Vetted contractors scale the team under the same accountability.
Step 3
Post-launch
Maintenance contracts, on-demand hours, and monitoring so the investment compounds.
Hourly
Scoped hourly support
Hourly support for defined work.

FAQ
Questions, answered before they're asked.
How long does a typical Shopware project take?
Project timelines vary based on complexity. A standard migration typically takes 4-8 weeks, custom plugin development 2-6 weeks, and performance optimization projects 1-3 weeks. We provide detailed timelines after understanding your specific requirements.
Which Shopware versions do you support?
We specialize in Shopware 6, including the latest 6.7 releases. We also handle migrations from Shopware 5 and other e-commerce platforms. We work on both standard and enterprise-scale deployments.
Can you migrate from other platforms to Shopware?
Yes, we handle migrations from Magento, WooCommerce, Shopify, OXID, and legacy Shopware 5 installations. Our process includes data mapping, custom import scripts, SEO preservation, and thorough testing for zero data loss.
Do you work with headless and composable architectures?
Absolutely. We architect headless Shopware solutions using the Store API with modern frontends like Vue Storefront, Next.js, and Nuxt. For composable commerce, we integrate best-of-breed solutions for PIM, search, and CMS.
What is your development process?
We follow an agile approach with clear milestones. Projects begin with discovery and technical planning, followed by iterative development sprints with regular demos. You receive staging deployments for review and documentation.
Do you offer ongoing support after launch?
Yes, we provide flexible support arrangements including maintenance contracts, on-demand support hours, and monitoring services. Support covers security updates, Shopware version upgrades, bug fixes, and performance monitoring.
Can you integrate Shopware with existing ERP and CRM systems?
We specialize in enterprise integrations with systems like JTL-Wawi, Pickware, Xentral, SAP Business One, and various PIM solutions. We build real-time synchronization for orders, inventory, customers, and products.
How do you ensure performance optimization?
Performance is built into every project. We optimize database queries, implement effective caching strategies, configure CDN delivery, and ensure proper indexing. For existing stores, we conduct thorough audits to identify bottlenecks.
What hosting providers do you recommend for Shopware?
We work with leading Shopware-optimized hosts including profihost, maxcluster, and cloud providers like AWS and Google Cloud. The right choice depends on your traffic, budget, and compliance requirements.
How do you handle project communication?
Clear communication is central to our process. You get a dedicated point of contact, regular status updates, and access to our project management tools. We adapt to your preferred style, whether Slack, email, or scheduled video calls.
