What the real problem is

Four signs that your shop is holding you back

  1. Your system has grown to such an extent that hardly anyone can keep track of it anymore.
  2. A significant proportion of your budget is being swallowed up by ongoing maintenance.
  3. Very few developers know the inner workings. If they’re unavailable, your business comes to a standstill.
  4. New products take too long to reach the market.

This means money remains tied up and turnover goes to waste. Switching to Shopify solves this problem. It is crucial that the transition is carried out successfully.

The best of both worlds

Migrating successfully from the legacy system to Shopify

  1. Understanding: First, we carry out a thorough analysis of your infrastructure, data flows and specific characteristics.
  2. Translate: We’ll then transfer data, products and orders without any loss of information and map out your processes accurately.
  3. Switchover: Finally, we’ll carry out the switchover in a controlled manner. Your shop will remain accessible and continue to sell.

We are familiar with both the old systems and Shopify. A successful 1:1 migration is possible.

Criterion

Understanding the ancient world

Standard removal

The shop is being rebuilt; the old system is used solely as a data source.

KOMBINAT Relocation

Infrastructure, data streams and custom code are analysed. Background in software development since 2001, with extensive experience in systems such as Magento and Shopware.

Data transfer

Standard import; special functions are not included

Lossless processing, including customised features such as the product configurator in the Lethal Cosmetics project.

Switchover

Migration with a downtime window.

Controlled switchover. Your shop remains accessible and continues to sell.

Hedging

Manually click through the system before going live.

Systematic testing of critical functions before and after the move.

The risks involved in changing systems

You only ever move a shop ONCE

Data cannot be migrated twice. Rankings that plummet as a result of a botched migration take months to recover. Any order history lost during the import is gone for good. That’s why we analyse your system first before we make any changes, and carry out a controlled switchover rather than simply pressing a button.

Migration to Shopify

Your shop, which has evolved over time, will be migrated without any loss of data. We’ll transfer your data, products, orders and custom features without interrupting your sales.

This is how the data migration works

Connecting systems

A shop on its own isn’t enough. We integrate Shopify with ERP, PIM, the till and the warehouse so that stock levels, prices and orders are synchronised automatically after the migration, without the need for manual intervention.

This is how we integrate your systems

Customised Shopify

When standard solutions aren’t enough: configurators, B2B pricing logic, specialist retailer portals. We develop the features your business really needs.

Developing with the right system

Happy customers report

"Kombinat migrated us from a fragmented WooCommerce solution to a modern Shopify shop. Key features included the existing custom configurator for our eyeshadow palettes, a new B2B shop and the multi-warehouse setup. This wasn’t just a simple "build from scratch" job, but a real slog working with existing code. The Kombinat team know their stuff, explain options clearly and deliver on their promises. No major glitches, no screw-ups – just a compelling solution that now allows us to work independently. Loading times are noticeably faster, and warehouse management runs like a well-oiled machine. The project management using ActiveCollab as the project tool was invaluable for keeping everyone in the loop. On a personal level, too, working with them was a pleasure. I’d highly recommend them for demanding e-commerce projects."

Martin Beaucamp, Managing Director of Lethal Cosmetics GmbH & Co. KG

"Kombinat understood our requirements perfectly and suggested Shopify as the perfect solution for our new website and shop system. It fits our needs perfectly as it offers a user-friendly interface that allows us to present our delicious fish sandwiches in the best possible way. We are particularly impressed with how easy it is now to accurately plan sales and on-site collections. Thanks to the whole team for this great support!"

Christoph Nuppenau, Managing Director of Fischhaus Wendisch Rietz Verwaltungs GmbH

"The Kombinat team was very committed to developing solutions - great communication, great working atmosphere!"

Arne Weingart, Managing Director Locationhero GmbH

"We successfully converted our online shop to Shopify with Kombinat GmbH. The Kombinat team responded precisely to our wishes and implemented even complicated requirements quickly and reliably during project realisation. The Shopify x Kombinat duo has proved to be a great asset for us. We look forward to continuing our long-term collaboration with Kombinat."

Sandra-Luisa Franke, owner of Teeshop Berlin

"The collaboration with Kombinat was characterised by the highest level of professionalism. From the initial consultation through to implementation, the team impressed us with their expertise, commitment and solution-orientated approach. Particularly impressive was their ability to precisely identify our individual requirements and translate them into a customised solution. Thanks to their structured and efficient way of working, all project goals were achieved on time. We value the partnership-based cooperation and can recommend Kombinat without reservation."

Florian Neidig, Managing Director at Hach GmbH & Co. KG

"The Kombinat agency proved to be an extremely competent and experienced e-commerce agency in our collaboration. What particularly impressed us was the careful analysis of our current situation and the entrepreneurial and strategic advice based on this."
