Website localization can be a fast track when entering a new market or a business killer if done wrong. In the era of AI, things can slip up quickly with machine-made texts if auto translation is the only tool you use. If you rely entirely on human translators, you will find yourself in a situation where you see longer delivery times, and it can become overly costly to maintain that luxury in the long run.

Migrating from one service to another can be tricky. This is especially the case for a service such as Shopify. If you have been using it for a while, you likely have a large catalog of products and a long history of orders that make even the thought of migrating to a new service overwhelming. At Crystallize, we understand this pain and our team works hard to make moving to Crystallize a fast and seamless experience. With our newly released Shopify migration tool, switching from Shopify to Crystallize has never been easier!

We just finalized the legal stuff for Crystallize together with the brilliant team at Bull, what a great name for a legal firm btw. We wanted to have friendly and balanced terms of service to reflect our philosophy and customer focus. Slack, which we think is awesome, set the bar at about 5900 words. The Crystallize terms of service count today 2272 words which is just 38,5% of what the great team at Slack has, and that is including the order form.
