E-commerce Web Development Company in Los Angeles
and Systems You Will
Not Just Sites, E-commerce Systems
With two decades of experience building e-commerce applications, we understand that your successful e-commerce business needs to integrate across many aspects of your organization.
Yes, like most agencies, we have the frontend down with beautiful, functional design on top of the most modern platforms, frontend technologies, and marketing techniques.
Yet unlike most agencies, we have the backend down too. With many years experience working with various logistics systems, and custom software developers at our disposal, we can integrate any back office system you utilize.
We can help you organize your data, transform it, and transport it from one platform to another, to help with merchandising, inventory management, order management, and of course marketing.
E-commerce Development Project Types
From straightforward Shopify sites using its standard features and classic Liquid theming engine... to highly customized headless e-commerce sites using the latest Shopify Hydrogen framework, Endertech has the experience.
We are intimately familiar with Shopify's backend interfaces, their numerous REST and GraphQL APIs, how to build custom apps, and the existing app marketplace.
It's safe to say Shopify is a vibrant and dynamic place to be working on e-commerce projects. It has grown tremendously and the pace only seems to be accelerating.
Despite being advertised as an easy-to-start platform, it can still be daunting to set up for organizations with larger catalogues wanting to take advantage of sophisticated features and integrations.
If you want to make sure you set your Shopify site up correctly the first time, give us a call.
Magento is a beast. Powerful, very powerful... but it must be tamed by master handlers who have experience, and no fear of getting their hands dirty.
If you're reading this, you may know that Magento's origins come from the late 00's when it emerged as the leading open source e-commerce platform. It had a major upgrade in 2015 and remains a leading e-commerce platform today.
Savvy developers and organizations love it for its flexibility and power... sometimes we hate it for those reasons as well... it's a thin line.
If you have a particularly large or complex catalog, Magento may be the best fit for you. It is also a great fit for organizations that want to deliver B2C and B2B experiences on one platform. And generally, if you have many custom requirements, Magento's open source nature means the sky's the limit.
If you are considering Magento for your new site, or if you have an existing Magento site and need support or migration service, contact Endertech, we have a wealth of experience here.
Headless e-commerce is all the buzz these days, and I must say, I don't think it's a fad.
"Headless" refers to the concept of using an e-commerce platform's backend tools, namely, its APIs, and then developing your own frontend with whatever tools you want, instead of whatever the platform provides you.
This approach works especially well for e-commerce sites that plan to integrate numerous 3rd party APIs from different services. Headless frontend technologies, like Shopify Hydrogen, or NextJS excel at providing the tools needed to integrate various API.
Headless e-commerce sites also provide a level of UX speed, design power and flexibility that legacy and off-the-shelf theming systems often lack, or make difficult to achieve.
If you want a special frontend experience for your customers, that opens the doors for creative API integrations, and achieves high performance scores, contact us about a developing a headless e-commerce site.

An E-commerce Development Company with Backbone
Don't discount the value of having capable backend developers on your team.
Many agencies will pay little homage to the "backend", selling you on the pretty pictures of the frontend. They'll tell you that the backend is "easy"... and they may not even mention the important of data structure and consistency.
Well, it's only easy because they haven't thought much about it yet... and that thought work is actually hard work.
At Endertech, we know that the quality of your e-commerce website begins with the quality of your catalog data and its structure. The systems you have to manage that data, and the data design itself directly impact your customers' frontend UX.
And what's more... the quality of your catalog data often also has a lot to do with how efficiently you can fulfill orders once your business grows in scale.
Go with a company that understands the picture of your e-commerce system end to end, not just frontend. Go with Endertech.
Understanding: Your Catalog, Your Customers, Your Back Office
Planning Phase
When you engage Endertech, our first step will be to lead you through a Planning & Design Phase. During this phase we will consult, research, analyze, and advise... all with the purpose of developing clarity across the project team for how your site should look and operate.
That clarity is achieved by producing visualizations and technical documentation.
The visualizations are in the forms of wire-frames, flow charts, and full page compositions that show everyone involved what the final product is supposed to look like and how data is intended to flow for any custom plumbing.
The technical documentation is a detailed backlog recorded in Jira that identifies, task by task, each bit of work that the development team must execute to bring the system to life. We estimate each task breaking them down into no more than 2 - 3 days of work. Then we prioritize and group each task by feature. It is this detailed work that forms the basis of our Development Phase estimates.
Development Phase
With the visualizations and documentation complete, we then transition to development using a modified Agile approach, with two-week sprints.
We meet with you in between sprints to show you the progress, talk about what's coming next, and coordinate if there is any new information. We test incrementally all along the way then rinse and repeat this process until the project has evolved to its V1 complete state.
Launch & Support
After everyone's had their chance to kick the tires, we coordinate launch with you and then remain available for support.
Common support services include:
Server Management
Continuing Development
Digital Marketing Support
