Netalico Commerce Reviews & Testimonials
Anonymous Department Director at Gadget Guard
5.0★
Branding Review from Anonymous
I'm a department director at a consumer technology protection company, overseeing our website and Amazon channels. We engaged Netalico Commerce to implement our rebrand and completely overhaul our website's frontend.Netalico successfully implemented our new design and developed custom features for our e-commerce platform. They've become our web development partners, continuously adding integrations and improvements. Using Magento, PHP, and SQL, they built custom features including product registration for lifetime warranties and insurance claim management directly through our site.In 2021, they executed a complex multi-company project integrating our insurance plan data into POS systems across North America, enabling virtual insurance sales at retail locations.I work directly with Mark (CTO & Founder), Emily (E-Commerce Solutions Specialist), Bianca (Project Manager), and Lisa (Chief Design Officer). We've been working together since May 2020 on a monthly retainer basis.Netalico has executed all projects exceptionally well, consistently meeting deadlines and launch dates with accurate quotes. We communicate through weekly meetings, Slack, chat, and email.What impresses me most is their outstanding team structure. They have talented, highly skilled members organized efficiently for optimal project delivery. They make the client experience seamless.

Beauty Marketing Review from Anonymous
I manage a beauty brand, and we engaged Netalico Commerce to handle our web development and email marketing needs.After an initial strategy call to understand our priorities, Netalico Commerce developed a comprehensive plan to address our requirements. They now maintain our Shopify e-commerce platform and implement ongoing updates. The site features shopping capabilities, a blog, and class registration.Katherine, our Director of Operations and primary contact, leads the engagement with support from her design team. The results have been impressive - our conversion rate has increased, and they've outperformed previous developers in efficiency, response time, and organization. They consistently deliver on schedule and within budget, using Trello, email, and Zoom for seamless communication.Their standout quality is their ability to efficiently manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining high standards across all deliverables. Katherine excels at prioritizing our needs and finding effective solutions.Their onboarding process for new clients is excellent - I highly recommend utilizing Trello for optimal collaboration.

Website Redesign Review from Anonymous
I hired Netalico to redesign and develop our e-commerce site for our historic lighting and home decor business. We needed to modernize our outdated WordPress platform and handle our highly customizable products.Netalico rebuilt our site from scratch, creating a beautiful platform that seamlessly manages our complex product customization and integrates with external apps. They developed an efficient product page system and added content capabilities we previously lacked.We worked primarily with Bianca (project manager), a developer, and Lisa (designer). The site launched successfully and maintains our steady revenue stream while delivering the exact customer experience we envisioned.What distinguishes Netalico is their willingness to understand our unique needs rather than forcing us into a template. They listened carefully and tailored their approach accordingly.

Web Design Review from Celyn Matienzo
Working with the Buzzworthy team on a website design and development project has been a fantastic experience with the expertise and creativity they bring to the table. Anyone can design and develop a basic, functional site that looks good. But the Buzzworthy team doesnt just take orders and pull something together that just meets what you think are your basic requirements.The team took the utmost care to get to know what makes our products and services unique so they could create a visually compelling website that communicated our key value proposition to help us stand out in a crowded market. The page layouts, visual elements, and even the smallest details on the site all work together. It takes true mastery of their craft to balance visually stunning sites with functionality both in technical execution and as a part of an overarching sales and marketing strategy.Buzzworthy is truly a valuable collaborative partner that wed be glad to work with again on future projects!

Web Design Review from Craig Yeomans
The whole Buzzworthy team was attentive to our wants and needs, and integrated our vision into the site design in a way that was so much better than we had ever hoped it could look. This is a very important cause to us and the team at Buzzworthy treated it with the care it deserved and delivered enormous value with an absolutely gorgeous website. I would recommend them to anybody!

We have been working with Dinarys on our Shopify store for quite some time, and the experience has been great. From the very beginning, communication was clear, efficient, and reliable. The Dinarys team consistently delivered detailed proposals, stuck to agreed timelines, and offered well-structured solutions tailored to our needs. Their technical expertise is impressive, but what really sets them apart is their proactive attitude and genuine commitment to our project. Whenever we had questions or changes, they responded quickly and constructively. Its a true pleasure to work with a partner who feels like an extension of our own team. Highly recommended!

Gene McCreesh's Review Sourced from Google
FIVE STARS!!! 10 out of 10.After more than 30 years in business, I’ve learned the hard way that not all website and SEO companies deliver on their promises. Over the years, I’ve hired multiple companies that talked a big game but never produced real results.Nowadays, having a strong online presence is absolutely critical in the service industry, and Jeremy at Digital Minds has finally gotten us moving in the right direction. From day one, he’s been honest, knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. He always answers the phone, knows SEO and website marketing inside and out, and consistently over-delivers for a very fair price.What I appreciate most is that Jeremy isn’t trying to drain your budget with unnecessary extras. He puts together a realistic game plan and rolls things out the right way so you get the maximum return on your investment.I can honestly say I’ve finally found my SEO, website, and marketing team. Highly recommend Jeremy and his team at Digital Minds to any business owner looking for real results. 100%. I'm super excited to grow this area of my business with the support of people that know what they're doing.Thank you,Gene McCreeshPresidentMcCreesh Tree Service, Inc.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About Shopify Development Companies
What services do Shopify development agencies offer?
They provide end-to-end solutions that cover everything from initial strategy to long-term growth. Businesses should look for Shopify experts who combine Shopify development, design, integration, and digital marketing to maximize ROI.
Core Shopify development services include:
Shopify Store development and web development: Creating Shopify and Shopify Plus sites from scratch, tailored to brand and business models. Shopify website development includes user experience (UX), navigation and structure, and scalable eCommerce architecture for growth.
Shopify theme development and customization: Designing advanced Shopify themes using Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and managing performance optimization and mobile responsiveness.
Shopify app development and software development: Creating custom Shopify apps for unique business needs, private and public apps, and developing backend software for automation and integrations.
Shopify integration services: Managing third-party integrations (ERP, CRM, PIM, payment gateways), API-based Shopify integration with logistics, accounting, and marketing tools, and automating business processes.
Shopify migration: Transferring existing stores from platforms like WooCommerce, Magento, or custom systems, handling data transfer (products, customers, orders), and managing SEO-safe URL mapping and redirects.
Performance and optimization (CRO): Enhancing site speed, mobile optimization, and user experience (UX) to increase conversion rates.
Ongoing support and maintenance: Providing regular updates, security monitoring, and technical support
When does a business need Shopify Plus and a Shopify Plus Partner?
A business typically needs Shopify Plus and the support of a Shopify Plus partner when its eCommerce operations become too complex, high-volume, or globally distributed for standard Shopify plans. At this stage, businesses require a more advanced Shopify solution to support automation, multi-store management, and international commerce.
At that point, success depends on:
Advanced Shopify development
Strong integrations
Optimized Shopify design and UX
Continuous growth through digital marketing and Shopify SEO
Top Shopify development companies help turn Shopify Plus from a platform upgrade into a long-term competitive advantage. Shopify Plus is designed for high-growth brands that usually generate $1M+ in annual revenue or experience rapid monthly growth.
Shopify reported that its merchants processed over $235 billion in gross merchandise volume (GMV) in 2023, showing how quickly businesses on the platform can scale.
How much does it cost to hire a Shopify development company?
The cost of hiring a Shopify development agency can vary significantly based on your store’s complexity, required features, and long-term goals.
Shopify developers charge between $30 and $200+ per hour or $5,000 to over $30,000 for full website development, according to DesignRush data.
Location is another factor that influences pricing. Agencies in the United States and across North America typically charge between $50 and $150+ per hour, while Eastern European or Asian Shopify development agencies may offer more competitive rates of $15 to $80 per hour.
Platform and ongoing costs to consider:
Shopify plans range from $39 per month to $2,300+ per month.
Payment processing fees typically range from 1% to 3% per transaction.
Ongoing maintenance and support can cost between $90 and $2,400+ per month.
Do I need custom Shopify theme customization or an existing theme with minor edits?
Choosing between the two depends on your business stage, budget, and the level of differentiation your Shopify store needs to compete effectively.
Shopify theme customization vs. existing theme
Existing theme with edits
Custom theme development
Best for startups or simple store setups
Best for scaling businesses and advanced development
Lower cost: $0-$5,000
Higher investment: $10,000-$30,000+
Fast launch: days to a few weeks
Longer timeline: 4-12+ weeks
Uses 200+ pre-built Shopify themes
Fully custom Shopify design and theme development
Limited flexibility; relies on apps
Full control; ability to reduce need for apps and improve UX
Good baseline performance
Optimized performance where speed improvements can increase conversions by 8-10%
Essentially, you should choose an existing Shopify theme with minor edits if your priorities are speed, cost-efficiency, and simplicity. Go for a custom Shopify theme development if your priorities are scalability, performance, and differentiation.
What should a Shopify migration company include to protect SEO, data, and sales?
A reliable agency should protect your rankings, customer data, and revenue throughout the process.
At a minimum, a professional Shopify migration service should include:
SEO preservation: Full URL mapping, 301 redirects, and metadata transfer to prevent ranking loss
Data migration: Accurate transfer of products, customers, and order history with validation checks
Shopify integration: Reconnection of apps, payment systems, ERP, and CRM tools
Testing and QA: Full testing of checkout, payments, and user flows before launch
Performance optimization: Improved speed and mobile UX as part of Shopify development
Post-migration monitoring: Tracking traffic, rankings, and fixing issues after launch
These elements are critical because around 33% of users discover brands through search, according to recent reports. Therefore, even small SEO losses can directly impact sales.
