Outperform your old store with SaaS
Migrating from Shopware 5 to Shopify Plus means switching from self-hosted to SaaS (Software as a Service) - and that is a move you will not regret. With Shopify Plus, your team can stop worrying about technical issues and maintenance - and instead focus on activities that increase your revenue, build your brand and bring your customer experience to the next level.
- Never worry about EOL’s, security or hosting again. Shopify’s SaaS solution will save you lots of hours (and money) spent on self-hosting your store.
- Rely on the latest technology and A-class app ecosystem to develop at high speed and low cost.
- Remove unnecessary complexity from your architecture. Capitalize on hundreds of native integrations to external systems and endless connection possibilities.
- Leverage a host of features to improve your customer experience, automate recurring tasks, give your marketing results a boost, and see your revenue grow.
- With its flexible and reliable cloud-hosting Shopify is infinitely scalable - it grows with you all the way to enterprise level.

Why migrate from Shopware 5 to Shopify
A platform migration is always a big project, and extra inconvenient when you have to go through it because of an EOL. Forced to rebuild your platform and retrain your team, you will have to put your goal to grow a future-proof business on hold for a while - and lose momentum as a result. What’s more, if you wait too long, three things might happen:
-
You will be taken over by competitors who did make the switch in time - and are now thriving on Shopify’s SaaS platform.
-
Your store will lack critical new features after summer 2023, when Shopware 5 updates cease: as a result you will not be able to stay up-to-date with trends in ecommerce and see your sales slowly decline.
-
You will not be able to guarantee your customers’ safety after July 2024, when Shopware 5 support and security updates end: you might get hacked and seriously jeopardize your business.
It’s important to decide fast, but well-considered. Don’t be like those e-commerce brands who migrated to Magento 2 after Magento 1’s EOL was announced - and regretted it so much they quit within a year, wrote off the six-figure investment, and moved to Shopify within weeks.
