When your shop grows,
complexity grows faster.
Integrations that don't talk to each other. Internal systems that somehow run but nobody really understands anymore. DeViLink helps German e-commerce companies and comparison platforms get their internal complexity under control.
Sound familiar?
Typical challenges in e-commerce
We hear these problems regularly β from growing shops to large comparison platforms.
The platform team is busy with features β no capacity left for internal systems
Delivery processes, customer service tools, ERP integrations β all necessary, but nobody has time to build them properly.
Shop, ERP, fulfillment, customer service β nothing really talks to each other
Every department has their system. Data moves via CSV, manual processes bridge the gaps. Scaling becomes a nightmare.
Existing integrations are fragile and nobody remembers why
At some point someone built a solution that worked. Now that person is gone and the solution still runs β until it doesn't.
Development costs explode as demand increases
Experienced e-commerce backend developers in Germany are expensive and scarce. But those are exactly the profiles you need to scale.
Shopify agencies know themes β not your backend complexity
Standard agencies hit their limits when custom apps, ERP integrations, and complex fulfillment logic come into play.
Peak traffic reveals what everyday usage hides
Black Friday, Prime Day, seasonal spikes β suddenly the architecture shows its limits. Without scalable systems, every minute of downtime costs revenue.
How DeViLink helps
Embedded team, not external vendor
Challenge
Missing development capacity for internal systems
DeViLink approach
Become part of the team, not fill a ticket system
Our developers become part of your team β not external contractors working through tickets. The DeViLink co-founders lived this model themselves: as embedded engineers at a major German shopping comparison platform. That experience was one of the reasons we founded DeViLink.
Challenge
Integration chaos between systems
DeViLink approach
End-to-end integration expertise
From ERP integrations (SAP, JTL, plentymarkets) to payment systems and fulfillment APIs. We build integrations that are robust and maintainable β not quick workarounds.
Challenge
Shopify limits with custom requirements
DeViLink approach
Custom apps & themes when standard falls short
Shopify private apps, custom storefronts with Next.js, complex theme customizations. When the standard Shopify solution hits its limits, that's where we really get started.
Challenge
High development costs
DeViLink approach
E-commerce developers from β¬250/day
German quality standards, Vietnamese developers. Up to 70% cheaper than local agencies β with the quality expectations a German e-commerce company demands.
Why we know this works
Major German shopping comparison platform
Before DeViLink was founded, our developers worked as embedded engineers at one of Germany's leading shopping comparison platforms β responsible for internal services, delivery processes, customer service systems, and ERP integrations. Not as an external agency working through a ticket queue, but as part of the internal team with genuine system ownership. This experience was one of the key reasons we founded DeViLink β to make this model available to other companies.
