SYSTEC is a certified Shopify Partner. Ecommerce is our expertise.
We work with on a variety of projects at SYSTEC, but one of our core competencies is Ecommerce.
We’ve been doing Ecommerce for over 15 years now – a lifetime in the online world – and have experience with homegrown systems, Open Cart, Woo Commerce, and Shopify. We also have experience with platforms that needed to be wrestled into submission, but that’s another story.
SaaS(y) Shopify
SaaS stands for Software as a Service. It’s been all the rage for the last decade and for good reason. Before SaaS became a mainstream option for most businesses, we had to purchase software, install it on our own servers, learn how to run that software on that server, maintain it, and keep it running. As small companies would scale, they would have to add IT resources to maintain their systems and become experts in both software and server management. However, for SaaS products, all you have to do is outsource the bulk of that work to the company that built the software. Instead of selling you the software to install, they are selling it to you as a monthly, all-inclusive service. It allows businesses to scale without having to make giant leaps in their own technology infrastructure. Shopify is one of those types of services. They have solutions for the smallest stores just starting out to large brands making millions of dollars. We start most of our clients with Shopify so they never have to worry about moving to another platform.
Our Shopify Projects
Ecommerce is where it all began for us. And we can safely say – without an inkling of overconfidence – that we were involved with Ecommerce before it was a thing. In fact, our very first website allowed customers to purchase items with a check! So, things have certainly changed – quickly, and for the better.
We used dozens of Ecommerce platforms over the years and even developed quite a few of our own. Thankfully, Shopify came along, and it’s rarely a necessity to recommend anything else.
