      eCommerce Development Review from Undisclosed

      We have been working with First Pier for almost 10 years now, beginning with the launch of our women’s boutique E-Commerce business. First Pier has been responsible for our e-commerce store design, web development, e-commerce SEO, digital strategy, online marketing campaigns and beyond ever since. As a already successful brick and mortar retailer, we saw an opportunity to reach beyond our existing customer bases in Portland, Maine & Portsmouth, New Hampshire by creating an online shopping experience accessible 24/7 and nationwide. First Pier has helped us turn that vision into reality by taking us from no online store and zero sales to a dependable thriving new channel for our business that continues to grow. Our experience with Shopify started when First Pier migrated our site from Magento to a Shopify website. Since First Pier is a designated Shopify Expert, we knew we could trust them with the daunting task of moving all of our products, accounts, and customer history to our new Shopify site. They made the transition to a new e-commerce system painless by ensuring our hands were held along the way, we were thoroughly trained, and none of the SEO ranking keywords were lost. We continue to work with First Pier on expanding our use of Google Shopping SEO and will be implementing Shopify’s Point of Sale in the coming year as part of a continued effort to deliver a unified customer experience at our stores. As a small women’s boutique based in Maine, we are now able to deliver our customer experience to tourist and seasonal customers where they are year round. We would recommend First Pier to anyone looking to build or update a Shopify store.

      First Pier has been so helpful with the transition to shopify. After initially setting it up they provided us with great documentation on how to use the site and they've continued to support us through any issues that arise.

      Shopify Review from Undisclosed

      First Pier helped us move, update, and launch our online business on Shopify. As a high-traffic bakery, it was important to us that customers buying from around the country were able to view the quality of our products, feel the vibe of our Portland and South Portland shops, and trust that their order would be as special as a visit to our Maine bakery. First Pier delivered mouth-watering e-commerce product photography, an easy-to-use site, and supported us every step of the way. Our shoppable site is now optimized, accurately reflects our brand, and has poised us for growth.

      eCommerce Development Review from Olha Yilmaz

      We were searching for a partner because advertising alone can't deliver great results if the website isn't well-designed, user-friendly, and fast. That's why we chose to work with DigitalSuits, integrating their development services to enhance site performance alongside our advertising and SEO optimization efforts. DigitalSuits exceeded our expectations. They redesigned the entire store to create a modern, responsive interface, developed a dynamic product configurator that enabled real-time customization, and optimized the sites performance for faster loading times. As a result, our client saw an increase in engagement rates, a 33% reduction in page load times that led to lower bounce rates, and a 25% boost in average order value. DigitalSuits' project management was exceptional, they responded quickly to the clients needs and kept us informed throughout the entire process.

      We needed a website for selling something special like experiences. As it was not a simple Shopify functionality, we chose DigitalSuits company as a Shopify expert. With their help, we created an e-commerce solution to sell experiences. Before the development process, DigitalSuits implemented all documentation covering the business requirements, guides on mockup creation, and product functionality. DigitalSuits experts know how to support and provide further improvements to our website.

      Our client asked DigitalSuits to help with Shopify store development. To do so, the company was responsible for website design and development, and post-release maintenance and support. The company provided us with a team of 3 developers, 1 UI/UX designer, and a Project Manager. To help increase brand awareness and make the E-Commerce platform as useful as possible, DigitalSuits added the FAQ section, Blog and About pages, custom features like bundle creator, and a User Profile page.

      We recently moved over to Radiant after struggling to gain enough traction with our previous developers, and the difference has been night and day. The onboarding process was seamless – they uploaded all of our existing tasks straight into their platform, making the transition effortless. Their system makes communication incredibly easy, with tasks and chat all in one place, so nothing ever gets lost. Our account manager has been outstanding – proactive, full of ideas, and always willing to go the extra mile. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and we feel like we finally have a true partner invested in our success. The whole experience with Radiant has been smooth, professional, and genuinely refreshing. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

      Kamal's Review Sourced from Google

      Working with this Maaketto was nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated a deep understanding of branding strategy, event production, and creative execution. They didn’t just organize my event — they elevated it into a premium, unforgettable experience. Every detail was meticulously handled, from the concept design to the final delivery. The atmosphere, the visual identity, and the overall vibe perfectly reflected my brand. What truly sets them apart is their ability to combine innovation, professionalism, and flawless execution. Their branding work gave my business a strong, modern, and impactful image, while the event itself exceeded all expectations — both mine and my guests’. If you're looking for a team that delivers high-end events, powerful brand identity, and next-level creativity, this is the agency you need. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to create something truly remarkable and stand out in a competitive market.

      Hoping to receive a response and that you'll take immediate action (finally). There's been a scam circulating online for quite some time, pretending to be you! Be careful, because people who don't know what they're talking about will assume you're the scammers. If you give me an email address where I can write, I'll send you screenshots. Even a journalist mentioned it. How come you haven't noticed?

      It's a fantastic location, and when you walk in, you're amazed that so many people work in this think factory... then they show you the basement, the attic, and then the rooms and halls, and you're even more amazed. If I weren't a free animal, it would be the place I'd like to be "locked up." :-)

Everything You Need to Know Before Hiring a Headless CMS Agency

How do headless CMS companies help your business?

Headless CMS agencies help you design and implement a content platform and delivery stack that lets teams ship digital experiences faster, scale across channels, and integrate cleanly with your existing systems.

Faster iteration cycles and reduced downtime

By decoupling the content platform from the front end, content teams can publish while developers ship front-end improvements on independent release cycles. In return, 69% of users report faster time-to-market and higher productivity.

Better user experiences

With 98% of mobile app users expecting consistent UX and a 123% bounce rate for slow-loading mobile sites, headless CMS companies can help you deliver unified yet personalized user experiences. They achieve this by reusing structured content across touchpoints while maintaining centralized governance.

In fact, businesses switching to headless CMS report having 15% better UX and 14% improved performance.

Stronger conversions and ROI

With more localized and personalized user experiences, businesses are reporting higher conversion rates and ROI with their headless CMS systems. According to Gitnux, headless commerce adopters experience:

  • 22% year-one-year revenue growth vs. 12% for non-headless CMS stores
  • 45% increase in customer retention after adopting a headless CMS
  • 320% ROI in 18 months

Moreover, IDC research found that omnichannel buyers spend 15%-20% more than those purchasing on a single channel.

How much do their services cost?

The cost to build a digital solution with headless CMS architecture can range between $8,000 to over $500,000. The final billing will depend on scope, integrations, migration effort, number of channels, and build complexity.

Here are the hourly rates of headless CMS developers per region:

  • North America (United States and Canada): $120-$180 per hour
  • Western Europe: $90-$140 per hour
  • Eastern Europe: $40-$70 per hour
  • Latin America: $35-$70 per hour
  • Asia: $25-$60 per hour

Based on these hourly rates, here are the approximate costs of each headless CMS project:

  • Content migration starts at $2,000-$10,000, depending on data volume and complexity.
  • Small builds using a static site generator can start at $8,000-$25,000.
  • Standard marketing and business sites that are dynamic, have basic analytics, and simple integration requirements can cost $20,000-$80,000.
  • Mid-size platforms can cost $50,000-$150,000 for a scalable headless CMS, advanced integrations, and custom APIs.
  • Web apps start at $40,000 for basic functions but go beyond $80,000-$150,000 for more complex requirements.
  • Headless commerce stores start at $30,000-$60,000 for small businesses and startups, but can reach over $500,000 a global content delivery system.
  • Enterprise builds often start at $100,000, depending on integration requirements, security and compliance controls, and data structures.

How long does it take to build a headless CMS project?

A headless CMS project can take 10-12 weeks for a small-scale project, like a multi-channel marketing website. However, more complex builds can take 12-20+ weeks, and enterprise replatforms can run 4-9 months.

The actual project timeline will depend on your project's complexity, core features and functions, integration and compliance requirements, and feedback loops. Here is an estimated timeline breakdown:

Discovery and planning
(2-4 weeks)		 Stakeholder workshops to define business objectives, audiences, performance indicators, governance, and technical requirements.
Designing and prototyping
(3-5 weeks)		 Crafting the wireframes, architecture, design systems, and key components.
Content migration
(2-10+ weeks, often in parallel with development)		 Audit and migration plan, content cleanup, mapping, redirecting SEO, and validation.
Development and integration
(4-8 weeks)		 Content modeling, roles/permissions, environments, front-end build, and integrations (e.g., CRM and data analytics tools).
Testing and quality assurance
(2-3 weeks)		 Testing the website's performance, usability, accessibility, security, and reliability.
Launch
(1-2 weeks)		 Deploying the website to a live site and monitoring it for potential issues, so it can be resolved quickly.

How do you choose the best headless CMS agency for your business?

Consider these steps when choosing a headless CMS company for your business:

  1. Define your project scope and goals, performance targets, key features, channels, and compliance and security requirements.
  2. Shortlist headless CMS companies with proven experience in your project type, technical stack, and industry by examining their case studies and looking for measurable business results.
  3. Analyze customer reviews and testimonies to assess communication, project management, on-time delivery, and how they handle changes and issues.
  4. Issue a request for proposal and compare them based on scope, assumptions, deliverables, team composition, and total cost of ownership.
  5. Interview the team working on your project to ask about process, quality assurance, compliance and security controls, ownership, and post-launch services.
  6. Choose a headless CMS agency that is strategic, transparent, responsive, and clearly understands your constraints, success metrics, and tech environment.

What questions should you ask before hiring?

Ask these questions before hiring a headless CMS agency to verify that it has the right skills and experience to execute your project:

Relevant Background

  1. What headless CMS platforms and architectures do you specialize in?
  2. Can you share past headless CMS projects similar to our scope, integration, and migration requirements? What were the results?
  3. What is your experience in our industry, and can you provide 3 client references we can contact?

DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

  • Our dedicated team of agency experts actively searches the web for top-performing companies. We then pull information from their websites, online presence, and client testimonials to verify their status and qualifications prior to listing.
  • The agencies listed get notified of their profiles on the website and they can choose to claim it or not, which suggests their availability for more collaborations.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Headless CMS Companies

What are the typical services provided by headless CMS developers?

Headless CMS companies plan, implement, and operate a headless content management system (CMS), so teams can efficiently publish content across websites, apps, and other digital channels. Typical headless CMS development services include: 

  • Headless CMS consulting and strategy: Advising businesses on the best headless CMS vendor and architecture or optimizing current platforms to meet their goals.  
  • Platform migration: Moving content and assets from legacy systems while preserving data integrity, security, and SEO with minimal downtime. 
  • Custom headless CMS development: Building the content models, automations, and user roles as well as the front and back end to ensure easy maintainability and reliable performance. 
  • API and plugin development: Integrating the headless CMS platform with third-party systems, such as payment gateways, CRMs, ERPs, and marketing automation tools. 
  • Ongoing maintenance and support: Continuously monitoring the platform's performance, resolving issues, installing security patches and updates, and managing infrastructure. 

What is the difference between headless CMS and traditional CMS?

A headless CMS separates the content management backend from the frontend experiences. As such, content is delivered via APIs to any channel (websites, mobile apps, and IoT devices), so teams can reuse the same content across multiple experiences. 

On the other hand, a traditional CMS has a unified back- and front-end (monolithic), meaning that there is a single interface that often comes in the form of a website. It can still power multiple channels, but doing so requires extensive tooling and customization. 

Here are more details on their differences: 

  Headless CMS platforms Traditional CMS platforms
Advantages
  • Tech agnostic, allowing teams to use any framework
  • Consistent omnichannel experiences due to API-first approach
  • Highly collaborative, allowing for developer, content, and marketing teams to work simultaneously
  • Cost effective due to the availability of pre-built solutions (WordPress, Drupal, etc.) and templates 
  • User-friendly, allowing teams with limited tech knowledge to configure
  • Faster time-to-market launch
Disadvantages
  • Higher build complexity 
  • Requires technical expertise 
  • Potentially more expensive to develop 
  • Slower initial setup but faster iteration cycles
  • Less front-end flexibility 
  • Omnichannel needs extra work 
  • Scalability for multiple experiences can be difficult 

What are the most common headless CMS platforms?

Based on our research, here are some of the most common headless CMS platforms that developers use: 

  • WordPress: While it is a traditional CMS, it can be converted into a headless platform when paired with a modern JavaScript framework. Use this platform if you already have an existing WordPress-based site and want to migrate to a headless one. 
  • Strapi: An open-source, self-hosted headless CMS, enabling teams to have higher control over their data and infrastructure while being able to customize plugins, APIs, and workflows. Choose Strapi if you want to keep your data within your servers, and data sovereignty is non-negotiable. 
  • Contentful: A digital experience platform (DXP) with an API-first architecture and an extensive library of pre-built integrations. This platform is common for enterprises with complex needs and legacy tools. 
  • Sanity: Known for its collaboration features and flexible content management, Sanity is ideal for businesses that prioritize agility through controlled yet automated workflows. 

While these are the most common platforms, reputable headless CMS companies will recommend a tech stack that best matches your goals, technical requirements, existing systems, operating models, team capabilities, and target audiences. 

What companies benefit the most from headless CMS?

Many organizations benefit the most from a headless CMS when they need to publish content to multiple digital channels, scale across regions, or build custom experiences without being constrained by a single website template system. Common scenarios include: 

  • eCommerce and retail with multiple customer touchpoints (web, app, in-store screens) and heavy integrations (PIM, inventory, CRM, marketing automation), where teams want faster experimentation and performance. 
  • Brands running omnichannel campaigns (web + mobile + social + email + in-product) that need to reuse content consistently across channels. 
  • Product-led or platform businesses building multiple front ends (customer portals, apps, partner dashboards) that require developer flexibility and frequent releases. 
  • Global enterprises managing multiple markets, languages, and brands—where content governance, localization workflows, and reusable components are essential. 

When should a company NOT use headless CMS frameworks?

A headless CMS may not be the best fit if: 

  • You need to launch quickly on a tight budget, and a template-based website will meet your goals. 
  • Your site is simple (e.g., a landing page or small brochure site), and you do not need multiple channels, complex integrations, or frequent changes. 
  • You do not have ongoing development capacity (in-house or via a retainer) to maintain the front end, integrations, and updates. 
  • Your team depends on visual page-building and WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editing and you are not prepared to invest in a headless setup that delivers an equivalent editorial experience.
