How Shero compares with a freelance developer, an in-house developer and an offshore dev shop.
| Compared on |
Shopify development agency | A freelance developer | An in-house developer | An offshore dev shop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Features no app covers | Swag Golf: 5 custom features, including per-product purchase limits | Good for small tweaks, harder for app-level work | Knows your business, may be new to Shopify apps | Delivers what your spec spells out |
| More than one store | Regal Cinemas: two Shopify stores, one for each business line | A lot for one person to keep in step | Doubles their workload | Possible, with you coordinating both |
| Linking your ERP | Memphis Drum Shop: Shopify linked to its Counterpoint system through iPaaS.com | Comfortable with one app, less so with ERPs | Owns your systems, still learning Shopify's APIs | Can code it once you write the business rules |
| Upkeep after launch | Alto Music cut ongoing maintenance costs by 40% | Fixes billed each time something breaks | Upkeep competes with new requests | A new contract for each round of fixes |
| How you pay | Paid discovery, then an accurate estimate. | Hourly or per task | Salary, benefits and recruiting | Hourly or monthly, across time zones |

Process
Custom work starts with a written spec, so everyone knows what gets made and why.
We go through how you sell, which systems must stay connected and what the platform cannot do out of the box.
We decide the data model, which logic becomes a Shopify Function or app, and what the theme owns.
Theme, app logic and integrations get developed in two-week blocks, with something you can click through at each review.
We test with your actual products, prices and customer records, including the edge cases your team flagged. Your team then tests in BugHerd and signs off.
We launch with a rollback plan ready, hand over the documentation and stay on for support.
We design experiences that make a difference. See what our clients have to say about working with us.
