From Lightspeed to Shopify: fully taken care of by Syncer
Triathlonworld is a leading shop and store specialised in triathlon, cycling, running and swimming. As one of the first clients to make the switch with Syncer, they chose to migrate to Shopify to be ready for the future.
The challenge
Triathlonworld had an existing Lightspeed store but was running into limitations around scalability and design freedom. They were looking for a solution that could take a next step both technically and visually.
The solution: full peace of mind from Syncer
Syncer took on the migration completely off their hands and delivered a complete transition to Shopify. This consisted of:
- Products, customers, orders, categories and more carefully migrated
- Set up ready-to-use from day one
- A unique design fitting Triathlonworld’s sporty look
The result
With the new Shopify environment, Triathlonworld now has a professional, scalable and future-proof store. The custom design seamlessly matches the brand identity and gives customers an optimal shopping experience. Thanks to the stable Shopify foundation, Triathlonworld can fully focus on growth, service and their passion for sport.
