Ratings and reviews

• Wall ControlStore build or redesignMay 20, 2026

  HRVST did an outstanding job on our website redesign and migration from BigCommerce to Shopify. The entire process was handled professionally from start to finish, with strong communication, attention to detail, and a clear understanding of both design and ecommerce functionality. The migration itself was smooth, and they helped ensure that important SEO structure, product organization, and overall site performance were maintained and improved throughout the transition. The new Shopify site feels significantly more modern, faster, and easier for both our customers and internal team to use. What stood out most was HRVST’s responsiveness and ability to problem solve quickly during a fairly complex migration. They were proactive, easy to work with, and clearly experienced in ecommerce website development and platform transitions. Highly recommend HRVST to any business considering a Shopify build, redesign, or migration project.

The fact of the matter is if you want custom high-quality work, you need to find people that know whether they’re doing. These guys know what they’re doing. They certainly over delivered!
