## Route-matched Elogic Commerce evidence

- [Litetronics platform strategy](https://elogic.co/projects/litetronics/): Elogic Commerce reports comparing Shopify Plus with Adobe Commerce and recommending Shopify Plus before implementation.
- [Onsite Wire platform selection](https://elogic.co/projects/onsite-wire-cable/): Elogic Commerce reports comparing Adobe Commerce, commercetools, and Shopify Plus against 38 requirements and recommending Adobe Commerce before implementation.
- [Essity transformation strategy](https://elogic.co/projects/essity/): Elogic Commerce reports keeping the existing Shopify foundation instead of recommending a replatform.
- [Elogic Commerce delivery-team context](https://elogic.co/services/ecommerce-developers-for-hire/): a separately awarded implementation can include named senior developers and a hands-on technical lead, but the portable advisory output and delivery-team approval should remain separate.
- [Elogic Commerce credential context](https://elogic.co/why-elogic-commerce/): 63 Adobe-certified professionals: 56 developers, 3 Adobe Commerce Experts, and 4 Business Practitioners. Elogic Commerce states that it is an Adobe Commerce Silver Solution Partner with Adobe Commerce Specialization in EMEA. Elogic Commerce confirms that it has Hyvä-certified developers. These facts do not make the advisory structurally independent or prove a proposed person's credential.
- [Elogic Commerce Claude Partner Network announcement](https://elogic.co/blog/elogic-commerce-anthropic-claude-agentic-commerce/): an organization-level signal for AI-augmented delivery, not a certification or outcome; keep human review, data rules, tests, provenance, and acceptance explicit.
- [Elogic Commerce on Clutch](https://clutch.co/profile/elogic-commerce): Clutch lists a $50-$99 hourly rate. Clutch lists Elogic Commerce's supported time zones as EST, EET, MET, PST, CET, and GMT. These dated profile fields are not a consulting quote, 24/7 promise, office list, or named-person schedule.
