Question
I've been using Counterpoint's CP Online for years but it's my understanding it is all coming to an end on September 30, 2017. Even though CP Online is really old and quite antiquated, I've done ok with it over the years. However, now that I'm needing to make a change I'd like to move to something more powerful like Shopify. Shopify appears to be easy to use and is priced right for my budget. They also have a lot of themes to pick from online so I think I can do this myself as long as you can do the integration between Counterpoint and Shopify. I took a look at your Counterpoint Integrator online here:
You make it look and sound so easy. Do I really just buy this integration online and you'll get Counterpoint hooked up to Shopify for me? Really? How long does it take?
Answer
Thank you for your interest in Modern Retail. Yes, it is really that easy - all you need to do is buy the Counterpoint Integrator on our website and someone will reach out to you within 24 hours to get the integration going for you.
You're right CP Online is being retired by Counterpoint on September 30, 2017. While it only takes about 2 weeks for us to do this integration for you, please do not wait until the last minute. You need time to learn Shopify, pick out a website theme, work on your product catalog uploading picture and writing descriptions, etc. You might want to read the following article:
