Clutch has named DigitalSuits a Summer 2026 Clutch Global Award winner in the Shopify category, one of over 400 honorees recognized across 54 IT and development categories this round. The award isn't a self-nomination – Clutch's Ability to Deliver methodology scores companies on verified client feedback, project success, market presence, and industry expertise, and only the highest performers in each category make the list.
For DigitalSuits, this recognition lands right on our core expertise. Shopify is what we do most – it's the platform behind the majority of our client work. It also puts us in front of businesses specifically searching for a Shopify partner, at the exact moment they're comparing options.
Why a Clutch Global Award matters
Clutch Global Award honorees are selected twice a year, and the bar moves each round – companies are re-evaluated against fresh review data every time, not grandfathered in from a past win. Mike Beares, Clutch's Founder and CEO, put it plainly in the announcement, saying that behind every successful digital transformation is a trusted technology partner, and this round's winners earned that trust through client relationships and innovative solutions.
Shopify is one of the more crowded categories Clutch tracks. Landing among the honorees means DigitalSuits' review data – ratings, project outcomes, repeat engagements – held up against a large, competitive field of Shopify-focused agencies.
Why clients choose DigitalSuits for Shopify projects
Most clients come to us at one of five points:
- They're launching a new brand and need a Shopify store built from scratch
- They're outgrowing a templated store and need tailored Shopify customization or a full Shopify Plus development
- They're migrating off another platform – Magento, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and others – and want to move without losing SEO rankings or historical data
- They've inherited a store built by someone else and need a partner who can actually maintain and extend it long-term
- They're running a complex B2B or multi-entity operation and need custom integrations – ERP, CRM, logistics – layered on top of Shopify
We've been a Shopify-focused agency since 2016, and it shows in how long clients stick around – several of our Shopify retainer relationships have run for years, not months. That consistency is a big part of what verified reviews on Clutch actually measure.
DigitalSuits services for Shopify development
Our Shopify work covers the full lifecycle, not just the initial build:
- Shopify Plus development – enterprise-grade builds for merchants outgrowing standard Shopify
- Shopify migration – moving stores over from Magento, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Wix, and other platforms without losing SEO equity or historical data
- Shopify app development – custom apps and app store submissions, including public apps used by other merchants
- Headless Shopify (Hydrogen) – decoupled storefronts for brands that need more control over frontend performance
- Shopify retainer – ongoing maintenance, feature builds, and CRO work for stores already live
- Shopify integration – connecting your store to the ERP, CRM, or logistics tools you already run on, so data moves without manual re-entry.
- Shopify B2B development – wholesale storefronts with custom pricing, multi-user accounts, and bulk ordering built for how businesses actually buy.
What the delivered work looks like
A Clutch award is a signal. The real proof sits in the stores themselves. These three cover a migration with a measurable result, a long-term retainer relationship, and a complex B2B build – the range of what Shopify development actually means in practice.
- KOIO, a footwear brand, needed to move off an older Shopify setup and onto Shopify 2.0 without disrupting an already-loyal customer base. DigitalSuits handled the migration and redesign, then kept iterating on the store afterward rather than treating the relaunch as a one-time project. The result: a 22% increase in average order value.
- Understatement Underwear first brought DigitalSuits in for a Shopify Plus redesign back in 2022 – and has kept us on as their sole development partner ever since. The ongoing work spans custom feature builds and ongoing UX improvements, the kind of ongoing relationship Clutch's review data is built to surface, since it depends on a client choosing to keep working with the same team, not just leaving a one-time review.
- Aquablu, a water-as-a-service company, ran on disconnected systems – invoicing, warehouse management, and delivery logistics that didn't talk to each other, plus B2B complexities like multi-office accounts and special carrier routing. DigitalSuits built a Shopify Plus store with a custom app layered on top to unify those systems into one workflow, turning a fragmented back office into something a small team could actually run.
