We’re thrilled to have a diverse partner network including thousands of leading development and digital marketing agencies, system integrators, and technology partners around the globe to provide insights and feedback to continually improve and drive our innovation forward. Here’s what this new recognition from Gartner means for you as a Shopify Partner.
Building the future of commerce for enterprise retailers
Shopify addresses the clear demand for modularity, flexibility and advanced development capabilities in the ever-evolving enterprise landscape—and we continue to innovate. We partnered withGoogle Cloudto address search abandonment, extended the availability ofShop Payto enterprise retailers outside Shopify for the first time, and upgraded our integration with Adyen to offer even greater payment gateway choices. But we’re not stopping there.
Our commitment to innovation is crucial for the industry. From handling colossal product catalogs, limitless order volumes, multi-channel selling, or complex inventory management, Shopify's infrastructure scales seamlessly to exceed the demands of enterprise-level operations.
Take Shop Pay as an example. Becausewe've made it available to enterprise businesses off Shopify, any retailer can get thebest converting accelerated checkout on the internet. In a recent study, one of the big three global management consulting firms found that Shopify's overall conversion rate outpaces the competition by up to 36%. The same study found that Shop Pay can boost conversion by as much as 50%, outperforming other accelerated checkout solutions by up to 10%.
Why does that matter? Enterprise retailers have distinct requirements that demand tailored solutions. Instead of imposing off-the-shelf or difficult-to-integrate options, we think outside the box and provide businesses with the optionality and flexibility they need. This means we’re a more valuable partner in their success.
“Enterprises are re-evaluating their digital commerce strategies to provide faster, more innovative and frictionless experiences that meet the high expectations their customers need. We believe this recognition reinforces Shopify’s ability to deliver high-quality, on-time and on-budget solutions for enterprise clients.” -Travis Hess, Managing Director, Accenture Song
The new possibilities for your clients
Legacy enterprise SaaS was once the default choice for these businesses. Whether they opted for custom-built or off-the-shelf, they were often locked into one option — regardless of any issues that arose.
We believe our recent recognition by Gartner reinforces Shopify's ability to deliver best-in-class solutions for your clients, but we also believe it underscores the market's strong demand for flexible and customizable solutions that are quick to implement. As builders of technology that contributes to growth, job creation and profitability, we have a responsibility to continuously innovate. We are driven to do more and achieve greater things, and our teams worldwide are committed to challenging the status quo and delivering transformative solutions that give your and your clients a competitive advantage.
“As companies increasingly move to improve their digital commerce experience, it becomes even more important that they implement a robust platform with the flexibility and innovation to scale. By partnering with Shopify, we’re able to support our client ambitions with a powerful platform that provides the flexibility to integrate and innovate without restrictions, whileoffering trusted infrastructure components that help their teams move faster.” - Benjamin Crudo, CEO of Diff Agency
