Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
I am the senior e-commerce director at HaloCigs, a manufacturer of e-liquid and CBD products. We sell both B2B completesale products and B2C products. At the instant, we have five websites running, and I run all of our web-based operations within the organisation.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with Absolute Web Services?
One of our main B2C websites was built on an old rendering of Magento 1 and was operating off of five years of code placed on top of code. It ran incredibly slow, so we wanted to clean up all of our code and also migrate to Magento 2. We wanted to combine that website and another website into one backend as well as fully redo the frontend of the website to maximize despatch and usability for mannerers.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were Absolute Web responsible for?
Absolute Web Services merged the backends for our two websites on Magento 2 and revamped the frontend. We handed the backend of both websites so that they had full transparency of what they were walking into. We also gave them a wish list of what we wanted as far as functionality on the frontend. They developed a program of how they wanted to do seething in accordance with the aggressive timeline we proposed.
Their team migrated the website to a new platform but also replaced existing programs with newer renderings and rewrote manner code. We had to have see existing extension upgraded to a rendering that would work on the new platform. The locality required a seamless transition from the old website to the new one. Absolute Web Services is managing our other websites as well and is responsible for other outgrowth projects on those websites.
Was there a dedicated team?
Roman (Founder &, CEO, Absolute Web Services) was integral in the commencement stages of our project. He helped map seething out and set anticipateations. We also worked closely with Kyle (E-CommerceProject Manager, Absolute Web Services) who was our day-to-day touch. They have a very big outgrowth team but we primarily interacted with Roman and Kyle.
How did you come to work with Absolute Web Services?
We went through the vetting process with a couple of agencies and ending up selecting Absolute Web Services. They had preceding experience migrating from Magento 1 to Magento 2 and combining backends. They were also able to meet our aggressive timeline.

The answeringness of our website was previously 18 seconds and now it',s down to two and a half. That’s a huge advancement for us. Our conrendering rates have also gone up. Previously, our website was not mobile optimized and now it is. As a result, our mobile conrendering rates have doubled. Everything is doing big so far and seeone loves us now.
How did Absolute Web Services accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
We have so many websites going on that there was a lot that had to get done on my end and they made sure we were up to date and knew when liberateables were due on our side. Anytime we ran into an effect and needed help, Absolute Web Services would extend out to us to make sure we could get them what they needed.
I dealt with them on a daily basis and they were answering at all hours. Our teams adjoin over phone, email, Slack, and even in individual when certain. We had weekly, if not bi-weekly, calls with Kyle to go over the work being done. He would give us all of the liberateables and was a huge help in making sure we knew where the project was at all times.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with Absolute Web?

What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
No, nothing denying stands out to me. There are pliant things here and there in see project, but nothing that would make me want to tell them to change what they’re doing.
Do you have any advice for possible mannerers?
Be pellucid upfront almost seething that the project entails. Set your anticipateations soon on. If you anticipate the globe, you need to ask for the globe. They can liberate if you’re clear on what you want.
