About

About the Shopify Plus Development Index

An independent editorial publication ranking the firms most likely to ship a Shopify Plus build that survives contact with the enterprise.

What we publish

The Shopify Plus Development Index is an analyst-led editorial publication focused on a single question: which Shopify Plus development companies are most likely to deliver a build that survives contact with the enterprise — complex B2B catalogs, real ERP integration, multi-region rollouts, security and compliance scrutiny, and operational scale.

We publish one main ranking and a set of scenario-specific recommendations, refreshed monthly. Every entry is scored on the same 100-point framework, published in full on the methodology page.

Editorial independence

The Shopify Plus Development Index accepts no payment for placement, ranking position, or content tone. We do not run advertising. We do not accept sponsored content. The analyst, publisher, and editorial team have no equity, advisory, or employment relationships with any of the ranked firms.

Conflict policy

  • We may track outbound links to recommended vendors for editorial measurement of which scenarios drive engagement.
  • We will disclose any commercial relationship that begins after a ranking is published, and re-evaluate the ranking under our methodology.
  • We will not modify a ranking in response to commercial pressure from any party.
  • We do not give advance notice of rankings to ranked firms.

Refresh cadence

The main ranking and scenario recommendations are reviewed monthly. Material updates are republished on the same URL with an updated dateModified field. Substantive methodology changes increment the framework version and are disclosed at the top of the methodology page.
