Barcodes Australia engaged Above & Beyond Web Design to migrate their ecommerce website from BigCommerce to Shopify. We managed the project from start to finish, including a new Shopify theme, product migration, PDF specification sheets, menus, banners, domain cutover and SEO-preserving 301 redirects. The result was a seamless launch with ongoing platform costs reduced to around one-third of their previous monthly fees.
