Shopware and PrestaShop updates and maintenance. Secure, stable and ready for the future.

Whether you use PrestaShop, Shopware or Shopify, we take care of regular updates, technical security and smooth operation to keep your store fast and reduce risks.

  • Security updates and fixes
  • Module and theme compatibility checks
  • Monitoring, backups and performance checks
  • Technical checks for Shopify stores too

An online store is not a static system. Its technology needs care.

A successful online store needs to stay up to date, both in its product range and its software. Outdated software is more prone to errors, less secure and can cause problems with modules or payment providers. Technical stability and loading speed also matter to Google; both can suffer without maintenance.

We therefore recommend regular maintenance for Shopware and PrestaShop: updates, security checks, error logs and backup routines help keep your store running in the future.

For Shopify stores, many system updates happen automatically. Themes, apps, tracking and integrations should still be checked and adjusted regularly.

Up to date, secure and working reliably.

We provide technical maintenance as an ongoing service or when specific needs arise. For PrestaShop, Shopware and Shopify, we help keep your system stable, secure and up to date. We document each step clearly and work proactively to prevent problems.

Questions about updates? We have answers.

How often should an online store be updated?

Usually every two to three months. We respond promptly to security patches or major version changes, always taking your system into account. We also offer monthly updates for all modules. Modules are a common entry point for attacks and should be kept as current as possible.

Can an update take my store offline?

Careful preparation helps prevent this. We use test environments and backups and check modules beforehand to protect the live store.

What matters when updating modules or plugins?

Modules and plugins may become incompatible during system updates. We check every extension and work to preserve all functionality.

How does this work for Shopify, where updates are automatic?

Shopify maintains the system core automatically. Themes, apps, third-party services and tracking integrations still need regular checks.

Do you offer one-off maintenance?

Yes. Alongside ongoing support, we offer targeted work, such as an update, backup and security check as a one-off service.

What happens if I leave updates too long?

Security vulnerabilities, slower performance, broken modules or loss of functionality may result. The longer the delay, the more expensive remediation often becomes. PrestaShop’s Enterprise version also offers an automated system update process. Contact us for more information.
