Let’s dive right in!

Power Your Vision on Shopify Plus with LitExtension

Our team of experts can safely transfer your products, customers and orders to unlock more growth on Shopify Plus’s robust platform. Let us provide a customized migration proposal.

Why Do You Need Salesforce Commerce to Shopify Plus Migration?

#1. You need a more user-friendly platform

Salesforce Commerce Cloud often requires technical expertise to implement and manage. This can be a real challenge if you lack in-house technical resources. Hence, if you are fed up with the technical headaches of Salesforce and want a more user-friendly platform, Shopify Plus is all you’re looking for.

With Shopify Plus, you can manage everything in one central hub, from day-to-day operation tasks to advanced marketing automation setups:

Customize your storefront with an intuitive drag-and-drop editor and various sales-driven themes from the extensive Shopify Theme Store.
Add products and keep charge of your stock status automatically.
Create and manage your multilingual store across multiple markets.

#2. Extend your store’s functionality with out-of-the-box features

Shopify Plus features are robust and diverse, including Shopify Payment Plus processing, inventory management, marketing tools, and customer relationship management (CRM) capabilities. All of them will reduce the need for third-party integrations and make it easier to get started with eCommerce.

Salesforce Commerce Cloud, while customizable, often requires additional integrations to achieve similar functionality.

#3. Upgrade your store’s performance & security

Shopify Plus is built to handle high volumes of traffic and transactions, making it suitable for medium-to-large-sized eCommerce stores. With Level 1 PCI DSS standards and headless infrastructure by Shopify Hydrogen, your store can handle millions of traffic at once with hyper security.

Salesforce Commerce Cloud, while also scalable, may require more extensive customization and resource allocation to support rapid growth.

#4. Unlock a team of dedicated Customer Success Merchant

As a Shopify Plus user, you unlock exclusive access to 24/7 support from Shopify’s Merchant Success Team to help you with any problems you may encounter. Also, they’ll go the extra mile to give you growth advice, optimize your store for conversions, and make the best of your Plus plan.

Salesforce offers great customer support. However, they don’t provide you with an assigned team of success managers.

💡 What to do before performing Salesforce to Shopify Plus migration?

With LitExtension’s All-in-One package, we won’t interfere or make any slight changes to your data. Nevertheless, for safety reasons, we highly advise you to back up your Salesforce store’s important data first.

Afterward, of course, you’ll need to sign up for a Shopify store and contact Shopify sales representatives so they can upgrade you to the Plus plan.

A visual learner? Check out this 2-minute overview of how LitExtension’s All-in-One Migration Service takes the heavy lifting off your plate:

Here’s how to perform Salesforce to Shopify Plus with us:

#1. You book a meeting with LitExtension

First, schedule a free 1-on-1 call with us via Google Meet by selecting a date & time and filling in your contact information into our form. In order for us to better organize our resources, you should book your schedule with us at least 2 hours in advance.

#2. You receive a tailored technical consultant

In the virtual meeting, our Migration Experts will listen to the specific expectations or requests from your side first. We will then provide you with a technical consultation on the size and complexity of your Salesforce store’s database.

After understanding your migration requirements and expectations, our specialist will give you a proposal with details of the necessary steps, price estimation, etc.

#3. LitExtension configures the migration

Based on the mutual agreement we reached from the meeting, our migration experts get down to business by configuring your Salesforce to Shopify Plus migration.

Next, pick the entities you want to migrate from Salesforce to Shopify Plus. This includes products, orders, customers, collections, manufacturers, etc. For the three main entity types (products, customers, and orders), there is a box next to each category. From here, you can enter the exact quantity for each category based on your current Salesforce data.

Choose the entities you want to migrate from Salesforce to Shopify Plus

The best part when you choose our All-in-One migration packages is that you’ll get access to our extensive list of advanced migration options to elevate your migration quality. With the Basic package, these options range from $19 to $39 per additional option. But with the All-in-One package, all of LitExtension’s additional options are free.

Here are three sought-after advanced options that most of our previous clients would choose:

Create the 301 redirects on Target Cart after migration: As you transition from Salesforce to Shopify Plus, your previous store’s URLs can be redirected to your new ones using 301 redirects.
Migrate Images from Products, Categories and Blog Post Descriptions: This option allows you to migrate images in product pages, catalog pages, and blog posts.

If you have any further customizations or special requests, don’t hesitate to drop us a line in the Customization Requirements box and our sales specialist will reach back for a price estimate.

#4. Our migration experts run a demo migration

Moving forward to the next step, LitExtension experts will perform a demo migration with unlimited entities for product, customer, and order data. This will help you have a better understanding of how the actual migration works and its efficiency.

#5. You review the migration

As the demo migration has been completed, we will keep you updated so you can review the demo migration results. If you have any feedback on the demo migration, talk to our migration specialists. Otherwise, we’ll move on to the main course– performing the full migration.

#6. We perform the full migration

We activate the full migration process, which will run seamlessly and securely on our servers without you having to keep your PC on. Also, your existing Salesforce store will operate perfectly fine during the migration, so your business won’t be interrupted.

As the migration is running, our Smart Controller tool will closely monitor the migration. This tool will notify us of migration issues (if any), so we can jump in and fix them right away.

After the migration has been finished, we will notify you via email, so remember to check your mailbox.

#7. Our Quality Control Engineer reviews the migration results

Once the migration is finished, your Personal Assistant (PA) will check both the front and back end of your Shopify Plus store to ensure that everything goes according to plan.

Afterward, we will handle the migration for you. You can then review the results and talk to your PA about any questions or concerns you may have (if needed).

#8. You receive post-migration support

Don’t forget that besides free additional migration options, with our All-in-One Migration Package, you’ll also get free post-migration services. This includes:

Recent Data Migration: We will transfer all your new orders and customers to your Shopify Plus store.
Re-Migration: Should the first migration not meet your expectations, you can request our specialist to do a re-migration.
Smart Update: We will import your latest and previously changed data into your Shopify Plus store simultaneously.

The incredible part is that these post-migration services are free at your fingertips for 6 months after the Full Migration (as long as the number of migration entities is less than 10% of the first migration).

In addition, we also offer free support for 6 months after the migration for the All-in-One package instead of 3 months with the Basic one.

And that’s how easy peasy it is to migrate Salesforce to Shopify Plus with LitExtension’s All-in-One migration package.
