Shopify Agency PM 2026 | Theme Apps Plus Migration

Shopify development agencies build e-commerce solutions where Liquid templating, Shopify APIs, and Plus customizations require specialized expertise.

Your team creates custom themes, develops Shopify apps, manages store migrations, and delivers headless commerce solutions across multiple merchant clients. Seasonal traffic spikes demand rapid scaling, Shopify API updates break existing integrations, and merchant requests during peak sales periods create emergency situations.

Sprint planning balances ongoing retainer work with project launches timed around sales events. Wiki documents Liquid best practices and Shopify limitations.

Git integrations track theme code across merchant repositories while time tracking supports accurate retainer billing. GitScrum helps Shopify agencies: boards visualize store development across clients, client flow manages projects from discovery to launch, and notifications alert to platform updates.

Key Features

View all features

Visual project management that actually fits how {vertical} work. Create unlimited Kanban boards with custom columns—from 'Client Review' to 'Ready to Deploy'—and set WIP limits that prevent the bottlenecks {city} teams know too well. Every card, comment, and status change syncs instantly across devices, so whether your {vertical} team is in the office or remote across {city}, everyone sees the same real-time picture.

Ship faster without the chaos. Drag-and-drop backlog prioritization, velocity tracking across iterations, and burndown charts that update as work gets done—not when someone remembers to update a spreadsheet. Your team always knows what's next, stakeholders see progress without asking, and {vertical} across {city} consistently hit their sprint commitments.

Code and project management finally speak the same language. Connect GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket in two clicks—every commit, branch, and pull request automatically links to the right task. Developers in {city} push code and managers see progress instantly, no status meetings required. {vertical} teams ship faster when the code tells the whole story.

New hires asking the same questions. Process docs scattered across Google Docs, Notion, and Slack pins. Sound familiar? Build your team's single source of truth with rich text editing, nested pages, and instant search. {vertical} in {city} onboard new members 3x faster when everything is documented once and findable forever.

Every unbilled hour is money walking out the door. One-click timers capture billable minutes automatically—no more end-of-week timesheet scrambles that plague {city} teams. Set custom rates per project, get nudges when timers run too long, and export reports that make invoicing effortless. {vertical} using GitScrum track 23% more billable hours on average.

The inbox overload ends here. Give clients in {city} their own dashboard where they track progress, approve deliverables, and leave feedback—without ever seeing your internal discussions or pricing. Everything stays organized in one place instead of scattered across email, Slack, and WhatsApp. {vertical} teams report cutting status meetings by 80% after switching.
