Platform Migration

The Moment of Truth for Enterprise Retailers

The e-commerce landscape in 2025 is no longer just fast—it's accelerating. Consumers demand speed, personalization, seamless user experiences, and global reach. Legacy platforms, such as Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Magento, or WooCommerce, are simply not built for this era of agility and scale. Many enterprises are now replatforming not as a luxury, but as a strategic necessity. (stats referenced)

That’s where Shopify Plus comes in. Today, it’s not only powering nimble startups but also high-growth enterprise brands. Nearly 25,000 retail storefronts now run on Shopify Plus, benefitting from its advanced automation, security, and global capabilities.  For enterprises seeking both reliability and innovation, partnering with a top-tier Shopify Plus agency has become mission-critical.

Enter Sunny Road, the best and brightest partner in this ecosystem, known for seamless platform migrations, zero downtime, and post-launch growth acceleration.

Why Brands are Migrating to Shopify Plus in 2025

1. Outpacing Legacy Limitations
   Consumers and markets are evolving. Today’s enterprise must support omnichannel engagement, real-time personalization, AI-powered tooling, and rapid adaptation. Legacy platforms often lack the flexibility to support new business models or integrations.
   
   
2. Unleashing Total Cost Efficiency
   Shopify Plus offers an all-in-one cloud infrastructure, security, performance, hosting, and upgrades. This means lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) and leaner teams. Enterprises shifting from Adobe Commerce or BigCommerce report significant cost and time savings.
   
   
3. Built to Scale with Confidence
   With ever-growing traffic demands, features such as unlimited staff accounts, multi-store management, custom checkout scripts, and powerful automation tools (Launchpad, Flow, Script Editor) enable enterprise teams to move faster.
   
   
4. Enterprise Momentum and Trust
   Shopify has recently welcomed enterprise brands such as Off-White, Beautycounter, and Barnes & Noble as new Plus partners. It’s clear: Shopify is crafting a future where enterprise trust and scale go hand in hand.
