Best forChoose scandiweb when the store needs the server tier and the storefront fixed by one team and you want published Core Web Vitals figures on comparable Hyvä projects to compare against.

What the published record shows

scandiweb was founded in Riga, Latvia, in 2003 by Antons Sapriko, according to Wikipedia. Its Clutch profile lists New York as headquarters and Riga as a second office, with 250 to 999 employees, a 4.8 rating from 53 reviews, an hourly band of $50 to $99 and a $25,000 minimum project size. Figures that only scandiweb reports, such as certification and project counts, are in the entity table on the ranking page and in the evidence ledger, not here.

On Hyvä, the third-party record is the partner listing. hyva.io lists scandiweb as a Platinum Partner and names Satoshi as the first original theme built on the Hyvä frontend. The case studies are scandiweb's own. Läderach reports +39% revenue, +47.8% conversions and homepage LCP of 1.8 seconds on desktop and 1.9 on mobile. Classic Football Shirts reports a 45% INP improvement and a 15% LCP improvement alongside an upgrade from 2.4.0 to 2.4.4-p2. Byggmax reports category page PageSpeed from 85 to 99 and product pages from 70 to 87 with the checkout left as it was.

On the backend, scandiweb's performance guide states that Hyvä sites average an LCP near 1.2 seconds against Luma's roughly 4.8, that Varnish saves roughly 0.3 to 0.8 seconds of response time and Redis 0.2 to 0.5 seconds for logged-in users, and that a bundling audit sample cut desktop total blocking time from 2,290 to 47. Its audit page states most audits are delivered within one to two weeks with a Core Web Vitals scorecard, bottlenecks ranked by revenue impact, a fix list and a 30-minute engineer call. The Scouting America case states that store is hosted on ReadyMage; readymage.com describes itself as enterprise Magento 2 hosting that is part of the scandi group and describes pricing as consumption-based without amounts.

What the record does not show matters for the score. The headline figures in every case study are PageSpeed scores or business metrics, and no write-up labels an LCP figure as a Chrome UX Report reading, so scandiweb loses points on the results criterion to ParadoxLabs, which does. No hosting plan price is published. Two statements from the August edition of this site were not found on the pages read today and were removed, the AWS Partner statement and the support client and ticket counts. The figures on its audit page for an unnamed US streetwear retailer were left out because the page does not name the store.

Scored by the same six criteria as the other seven, scandiweb takes the top position on a Platinum listing, the largest set of published performance cases on the page, a stated hosting platform and open source work on ScandiPWA and Satoshi, while MGT-Commerce and Sonassi score higher on backend depth and hosting layer control and ParadoxLabs scores higher on the proof format. The author of this profile is scandiweb's Chief Marketing Officer, as every page discloses.

Where is scandiweb headquartered?
Riga, Latvia, according to Wikipedia; it was founded there in 2003 by Antons Sapriko. Its Clutch profile lists New York as headquarters and Riga as a second office, with 250 to 999 employees, so working hours overlap both Europe and North America.
Does scandiweb publish field data or lab data for its performance work?
Mostly lab data. Its Byggmax and Läderach case studies lead with PageSpeed scores, and its Classic Football Shirts write-up reports INP and LCP improvements as percentages without naming the source. The Läderach page gives homepage LCP of 1.8 and 1.9 seconds. Ask for the Chrome UX Report or Search Console view of any comparable project before signing.

Its Clutch profile lists $50 to $99 an hour and a $25,000 minimum project size.
Does scandiweb run the hosting tier itself?

Pricing there is described as consumption-based with no amounts published, so a buyer comparing it with MGT-Commerce's listed plans has to ask.

Not at the low end. Its Clutch profile lists a $25,000 minimum project size, and its case studies name brands such as Läderach, JYSK and Scouting America.
