Shopify vs  PrestaShop

In the juxtaposition of Shopify and Prestashop, Shopify presents itself as an all-in-one solution, offering full support and readiness, while Prestashop requires more commitment to hosting and configuration. Shopify is an intuitive SaaS platform, while Prestashop requires self-management of many technical aspects.

Differences

Ease of implementation - Shopify launches immediately after registration, Prestashop requires server configuration

Maintenance costs - Shopify has fixed, predictable costs, while Prestashop involves additional expenses for hosting and IT support

Management - Shopify offers a user-friendly management interface, while in Prestashop you have to deal with a more complex system

Support - Shopify provides professional technical support, while in Prestashop you often rely mainly on community support

Security - Shopify provides a full range of security features, Prestashop leaves the responsibility to the user

Updates - Shopify takes care of ongoing system updates, Prestashop requires manual deployment of new versions and patches

How our PrestaShop to Shopify migration works

01
Audit and migration plan

We review your PrestaShop store: catalogue, customers, orders, extensions, integrations, URLs and SEO. You get a clear scope, a schedule and a list of what moves 1:1 and what needs a Shopify equivalent.

02
Data mapping

We map PrestaShop products, combinations, features, categories, manufacturers, customer groups and CMS pages to Shopify products, variants, metafields, collections and pages.

03
Shopify store build

We build the store on a custom theme, Hydrogen or a headless front-end, then set up apps, payments, shipping, taxes and integrations such as ERP, PIM or marketing tools.

04
Test migration and QA

We run test migrations on a staging store and check products, prices, stock, customers and orders against the source data, so errors are fixed before launch, not after.

05
SEO protection

Every old product, category and content URL gets a 301 redirect to its new Shopify address. We carry over meta titles, descriptions and image alt texts, add structured data and submit the new sitemap to Google Search Console.

06
Go-live and hypercare

We sync the latest orders and customers, switch the domain with minimal downtime and monitor sales, tracking and search traffic closely in the first weeks after launch.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a PrestaShop to Shopify migration take?

It depends on catalogue size, number of integrations and design scope. After the free audit you get a fixed schedule broken down into stages, so you know the launch date before the work starts.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

Not if the migration is done properly. We map every old URL to its new address with 301 redirects, keep meta data and content, and monitor Google Search Console after launch to catch and fix any issues quickly.

Can customer accounts and order history be moved?

Yes. Customers, addresses and order history are migrated. For security reasons passwords can't be transferred between platforms, so customers receive an invitation to activate their account on the new store.

What happens to my PrestaShop modules?

PrestaShop modules don't move to Shopify. We replace each one with a Shopify app, a built-in feature or a custom app, and reconnect your payment, shipping and ERP integrations.

Can you migrate a PrestaShop multistore with several languages?

Yes. PrestaShop shops and languages are mapped to Shopify Markets (or separate Shopify stores where that makes more sense), with translated content, local currencies and hreflang.
