Get a professional online store with PrestaShop
PrestaShop is a flexible open-source platform for businesses that want a professional online store with strong options for customisation, integrations and ongoing development.
At itpilot, we help you develop, operate and further develop PrestaShop solutions that fit your products, customers and workflows. We can build a new online store from the ground up or improve an existing solution to make it more user-friendly, efficient and easier to manage.
Built for professional online stores
PrestaShop is developed with e-commerce at its core. From the outset, the platform is designed to handle the things an online store typically needs, such as products, categories, customers, orders, payments, shipping, discounts, campaigns, languages and currencies.
At the same time, PrestaShop is an open-source solution that can be adapted to your needs. Your online store can be built with the design, features and integrations that suit your products, customers, workflows and brand.
At itpilot, we help you assess whether PrestaShop meets your requirements and needs, and how the solution should be structured if it is the right choice for your business.
Is PrestaShop the right solution for you?
PrestaShop can be a good choice if your online store needs to be adapted to your business, for example with multiple customer types, product data, integrations, B2B and B2C sales or several markets.
However, it is not necessarily the right solution for every business. In some cases, WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento/Adobe Commerce or another platform may be more suitable. It depends on your products, workflows, budget, technical requirements and how the online store needs to be managed.
At itpilot, we advise you on choosing the right e-commerce platform, so you get a solution that fits your business both now and in the long term.
Benefits of PrestaShop
Open source and highly flexible
PrestaShop gives you the freedom to adapt your online store to your products, customers and workflows without being tied to a closed platform.
Built specifically for e-commerce
PrestaShop has been developed as an e-commerce platform from the start. Products, categories, customers, orders, payments, shipping, discounts and campaigns are therefore core parts of the solution.
Suitable for different customer types
PrestaShop can be adapted to different customer types, such as consumers, businesses, resellers or customers with special pricing and access requirements.
Multiple markets in one setup
PrestaShop can support multiple languages, currencies, stores and product ranges if you sell across different markets or brands.
Strong integration options
PrestaShop can be connected to accounting systems, ERP, inventory management, shipping, payment solutions, PIM and other systems, so your online store works together with the rest of your business.
Can grow with your needs
PrestaShop can be expanded with modules, custom-developed features and technical adaptations, allowing the solution to evolve alongside your products, customers and business model.
Advantages of Prestashop
With Prestashop you have full control over your solution. Since Prestashop is open-source, you own the webshop yourself, and you can easily move your webshop from another business partner to us. In addition, you are not bound by a monthly subscription to use Prestashop.
There is already a sea of different modules and templates that you can use on your webshop. Some are free, others you must pay for. If there is no module that meets your wishes, our Prestashop developers can develop a solution for you.
Prestashop is built so that your webshop can be scaled as your sales increase, you get more products, you expand to new markets (language and currency) and much more.
It is possible to create several different webshops using one Prestashop installation. This is what is called a multistore. With a multistore, you therefore have the opportunity to set up several different webshops e.g., targeted at different countries, and at the same time you keep the product management in one place.
In addition, you have the option of collecting several products in product packages. In this way, you can create attractive product packages for your customers, and thereby increase the average basket value and increase sales.
One online store for different audiences and sales models
PrestaShop can be adapted if you sell to different audiences or manage sales in several ways. This may be relevant if you sell to both consumers and businesses, operate across multiple markets or need specific pricing, discounts and product catalogues.
It may be relevant if you need:
- B2B and B2C sales in the same solution
- customer-specific pricing
- different discounts and pricing rules
- login-based features
- multiple languages and currencies
- multiple stores or markets
- specific shipping and payment rules
- product catalogues with many products and variants
- integrations with ERP, PIM or inventory management systems
With the right setup, PrestaShop can be adapted to the way you sell across customer types, markets and sales models.
Effective PrestaShop development focused on your business
A good PrestaShop online store should not only work technically. It should also support the way you sell, manage products and handle orders.
At itpilot, we provide PrestaShop development where design, features, data and integrations are considered together from the start. This may involve developing a new online store, adapting an existing solution or further developing features that make the store more efficient in day-to-day operations.
We can help with:
- development of a new PrestaShop online store
- customisation of themes, design and features
- checkout, payments and shipping
- products, categories and structure
- integrations with ERP, PIM, inventory and accounting systems
- technical troubleshooting and performance optimisation
- further development of existing solutions
The goal is to create an online store that is easy for your customers to use and practical for your team to manage.
Do you need a PrestaShop developer?
If you already have a PrestaShop online store, you may need technical support with errors, updates, integrations or new features.
Your online store may have become slow, the checkout may be causing problems, modules may no longer work properly, or integrations with payments, shipping, inventory or accounting may be causing issues. You may also want improved product displays, a more efficient order flow or an assessment of whether the solution should be upgraded.
At itpilot, we can help with both defined development tasks and ongoing support. We begin by understanding your current solution, so we can assess what should be addressed first and how the work is best approached.
Integrations that connect your business
A professional PrestaShop online store often needs to work together with payment solutions, shipping, accounting, inventory, product data, ERP, CRM and other systems. When data flows automatically between systems, you avoid manual duplication and reduce the risk of errors.
At itpilot, we help you connect PrestaShop with the systems that are important to your business.
Synchronise products, prices, stock levels, customers and orders between your online store and your ERP or inventory management system.
Collect product data in one place and send it to PrestaShop, making products, variants, images, descriptions and languages easier to maintain.
Make it easy to offer the payment methods your customers expect, such as MobilePay, card payments or other payment gateways.
Bring together order flows, delivery methods, labels, parcel shops and tracking, so shipments can be handled more efficiently.
Automate the transfer of orders, invoices, customers, payments and accounting data to your accounting system.
Bring together customer data, order data and sales activities across your online store and sales organisation.
Get an integration developed to match your workflows when standard solutions do not meet your needs.
Support, operations and further development of your PrestaShop online store
A PrestaShop online store needs to be maintained, updated and further developed to remain stable and continue supporting your business.
At itpilot, you get a technical partner that sees your online store as part of your wider digital setup, where products, orders, payments, inventory, accounting and customer data need to work together.
We can help with:
- hosting and secure operations
- backups, monitoring and updates
- technical support and troubleshooting
- performance optimisation
- further development of features and integrations
- upgrades from older PrestaShop versions
- ongoing maintenance and optimisation
When your online store is business-critical, it is important to work with a partner that understands the platform, the infrastructure and the systems the solution needs to work with.
At itpilot, we work with documented processes and secure operations, supported by our ISAE 3402 and ISAE 3000 assurance reports. This gives you a stronger foundation for operating your PrestaShop online store professionally, securely and with the flexibility to develop it over time.
Shall we help with your PrestaShop online store?
Whether you need help with a new PrestaShop online store, further development of an existing solution or integrations with your other systems, we are happy to have a no-obligation conversation about your needs.
We can help you assess whether PrestaShop is the right platform, how the solution should be structured and how the online store can best support your business.
Upgrading from older PrestaShop versions
Many PrestaShop online stores still run on older versions, including PrestaShop 1.7, which was widely used for many years. If your online store is still running on an older version, it may be worth assessing whether the solution should be upgraded.
The move from PrestaShop 1.7 to PrestaShop 8 is a significant version upgrade that can affect themes, modules, custom-developed features, integrations and the server environment. PrestaShop 9 was launched in 2025 and continues the platform’s technical development.
An upgrade should therefore be planned carefully. At itpilot, we can help review your current solution, assess modules and integrations, establish a test environment and ensure that checkout, payments, shipping, SEO and key workflows function properly before the upgraded solution goes live.
The goal is not simply to move to a newer version. It is to ensure that your online store becomes more stable, secure and ready for further development.
