The right platform, built right
Most businesses do not need a store built from scratch. They need a proven platform set up properly, styled to match their brand, and tuned to sell. Shopify and WooCommerce cover the large majority of those needs, and Pulse Software Solutions has been building online stores since 2000.
Shopify is the fastest way to start selling. Everything is hosted and prebuilt, so you can be live in about a week. WooCommerce is the natural choice when your store is part of a WordPress site, or when you want full control over hosting, data, and customization without an ongoing per-sale platform fee. We help you pick the one that fits your products, your team, and your budget, then build it to last.
When a project genuinely needs features no platform offers out of the box, we also handle a fully custom build. For most merchants, though, a well-configured Shopify or WooCommerce store is faster to launch and cheaper to run.
What we build on Shopify and WooCommerce
Six things we deliver on every store project, whether you are launching your first shop or rebuilding one you have outgrown.
Shopify store builds
Themed, configured, and launch-ready. We set up products, collections, payments, shipping, and apps so you can start selling fast, often within a week.
WooCommerce store builds
Full-control stores inside your WordPress site. You own the hosting and the data, with no per-sale platform fee and room to customize anything.
Custom themes and apps
Designs that match your brand, not a template everyone else uses. We extend both platforms with custom theme work and apps or plugins when you need behavior the store does not ship with.
Migration and replatforming
Moving from Magento, a legacy cart, or one hosted platform to another. We migrate products, customers, and order history cleanly, with redirects in place so you keep your search rankings.
Payments and checkout
A short, secure path to purchase. We set up the right payment gateways and a checkout tuned to reduce the abandonment that costs most stores seven in ten carts.
Integrations and sync
Your store talking to the rest of your business. We handle the integration work that connects orders, customers, and inventory to your bookkeeping, ERP, and CRM systems, so nobody is rekeying data by hand.
Why merchants pick us to build it
We have built online stores since 2000, from single-owner boutiques to multi-million-dollar catalogs. That range shows up in the details that make a store profitable.
- A mobile-first store by default, because most of your buyers are shopping on a phone.
- A secure, PCI-compliant checkout over an encrypted channel, so customers trust you with their card.
- Clean migrations that protect your existing search rankings and order history.
- One team for design, development, payments, and integrations, so you are not stitching together freelancers.
- 25+ years of ecommerce experience, serving merchants across the United States from our Denver, Colorado base.
What comes with every store we build
Every Shopify and WooCommerce project includes the work that takes a store from empty to open for business.
- Product and collection setup, with bulk import handled for you
- Brand-matched theme customization across every page
- Payment gateway setup over a 256-bit encrypted channel
- Quality assurance testing on phones, tablets, and desktops before launch
- Backend training so your team can run the store without us
How we build your store
Our ecommerce process has been refined over hundreds of store launches. It keeps projects predictable and your store ready to sell on day one.
Analysis and platform fit
We review your products, your team, and your goals, study your competitors, and recommend the platform, features, and order flow that fit. You get a clear plan before any building starts.
Design and storyboarding
Our designers storyboard the store from the home page to the checkout, with attention to product presentation and a short path to purchase. This is the cheapest stage to change anything, so we get it right here.
Build and theme development
We turn the approved design into a responsive, standards-compliant store on Shopify or WooCommerce, then build the backend tools your team will use to manage it day to day.
Payments and integrations
We connect your payment gateway and sync the store with bookkeeping, ERP, CRM, and POS systems, so orders, customers, and inventory flow without manual entry.
Quality assurance and launch
Before going live, our QA engineers test usability and performance against a strict checklist, then deploy to PCI-compliant hosting and move your domain so the store opens cleanly.
Search setup, training, and support
We set product-level SEO so you compete for search visibility, turn on analytics and reporting, train your team on the backend, and stay on for support after launch.
From our Denver, Colorado headquarters, we build and support Shopify and WooCommerce stores for merchants across the United States. Tell us what you sell and we will map out the fastest, most cost-effective path to launch.
Flexible engagement models
Pick the level of help your store needs right now. You can start at any tier and move between them as your business grows.
Launch
A new Shopify or WooCommerce store, set up, themed, and ready to take orders. The fastest path from idea to open for business.
Migrate
Move from Magento, a legacy cart, or one platform to another. We migrate products, customers, and order history with redirects that protect your rankings.
Customize
Custom theme work, apps, and plugins that make an existing store do exactly what your business needs, beyond what the platform ships with.
Manage
Ongoing updates, monitoring, and improvements so your store stays fast, secure, and current long after launch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose Shopify or WooCommerce?
It depends on your priorities. Shopify is hosted and quick to launch, with predictable monthly costs and per-sale fees. WooCommerce runs inside WordPress, gives you full control of hosting and data, and has no per-sale platform fee, but you manage more of the stack. After a short conversation, we recommend the one that fits your products, budget, and team.
How long does it take to launch a store?
A straightforward Shopify store can be live in about a week. WooCommerce stores and any store that needs custom themes, apps, or integrations take longer. You get a realistic timeline during the analysis stage, before any building starts.
Can you move my existing store to a new platform?
Yes. We migrate products, customers, and order history between platforms and put redirects in place so you keep your search rankings. We have replatformed stores from Magento, legacy carts, and one hosted platform to another.
Will my store work well on phones?
Every store we build is mobile-first, because most ecommerce sales now happen on mobile. We test on phones, tablets, and desktops before launch, and a faster store measurably lifts conversion.
Do you offer headless or fully custom builds?
Yes. When a project needs more than a standard storefront, we build headless ecommerce or a fully custom store. For most merchants, though, a well-configured Shopify or WooCommerce store launches faster and costs less to run.
What happens after my store goes live?
We do not disappear at launch. We train your team on the backend, set up analytics and reporting, and can stay on to maintain and optimize the store as you grow.
