Shopware unveiled its NEW ERA in September 2022 with its new pricing plans. Shopware is growing at a fast pace, it recently took a big leap forward in the eCommerce magic quadrant by Gartner. With the faster growth, customer demand, and a drive for offering the best solutions to its customer, the new plans were called for to deliver the most value to its customers and to partners like us.
In the sea of so many eCommerce applications and software, it was important for Shopware to stay focused to capture the right market and deliver the right product to the right customers. Shopware highlighted the importance of focusing on the last partner day. It made sense after they launched their new pricing plans. Growth, Strategy, and success are strongly connected to ‘Focus’. Shopware’s brand positioning and focus became very clear after the launch of the new pricing plans.
With the recent changes to the pricing, Shopware made it very clear that it is the right fit for the Mid-Market merchants, especially for Upper mid-market Merchants. What does it mean? Shopware is the best fit for you if you are a growing eCommerce business doing a revenue of $5 Million to $50 Million a year. You can start considering Shopware once you enter the Million Club. Shopware as a solution is very efficient for businesses in Mid-Market as they have enough volume to utilize all the features that Shopware offers and they get assured stability from Shopware so that the businesses can focus on what they do the best.
This is a very smart move from Shopware. While other players are moving away from Mid-market players or the players who are not able to understand the need of Mid-market merchants, Shopware is trying to focus on them and build a product that would bring them the most value.
The Mid-market players need the best of the above features to grow constantly. Shopware understands it very well and hence has made the product best in class with all of the features listed above.

It was expected outcome and timely delivered. They are good at communication and client services. Project was smooth enough to develop, communication was excellent. They always ask too many question to reach the correct destination. Would like to hire them again for next Business.
The team manages the project transparently and keeps an open line of communication. In addition to going above and beyond, they're also able to relay technical information in layman's terms.
They offered a number of possibilities which I didn't expect while customizing a standard Shopware Theme.
The team is knowledgeable and always answered all my queries in the timely manner. I would recommend them for affordable and safe migration services.
