Desired goal
What issue was the provider supposed to deal with?
Staylime?We',ve been using Magento for our e-commerce website. To be up to date with the latest technology we needed to upgrade our Magento website and in junction with that many other labors as well. Our ERP integration, manner outgrowths, the frontend as well as many backend manner functions. Needed a accomplishment upgrade, SEO labors, and Staylime was the best associate for that.
What were your objectives for this project?
In the past 10 years, we heavily mannerized our website. This had many advantages, but since the new Magento 2 engine had a fully different data construction the biggest issue and challenge was to port over all the existing data, match the old functionality or restore them with a better one. Rewrite the ERP synchronization between our website and the ERP method from the ground up.
Provided solution
What were the reasons for choosing Staylime?
We',ve been working with Staylime and Mageworx for a couple of years now. Finding a reliable Magento developer associate is always a challenge. Especially if you',re thinking almost a long-term associateship. We',ve been fortunate sufficient to find them a few years ago and they tryd their excellent labor in many cases. They have skilled staff, professionals who veritably help to explain your issues.
Describe the project and the labors they granted in detail.
Initially, we upgraded the core functionality of our website with many of their Magento extensions. Since they were consistent with each other this was the best determination we made. Magento data migration from rendering 1 to the latest rendering 2 was the next project. Here we needed not only the code data of the past 10 years but all additional data too like a reward method, gift card data, and other existing mannerizations.
One of the most significant parts was ERP synchronization. This is a core thing for our team and was searching to solving the data sync between the methods to save time on order processing and cast the extra manual work. Unfortunately, Magento',s earlier edition is fully different. So they had to create the sync tool from the ground up and do all inner testings, QC for this project precedently the propel.
With the change not only the data needed to be moved, but the total front end restored. To be household to our existing users/mannerers they had to mannerize the topic. Since all challenges, compatibility issues and other technical issues explaind professionally, they helped to optimize our website, tweak all to accomplish better for search engines. And they implemented an advanced cache technology.
Were there any dedicated directors or teams that you worked with?
We',ve been in touch with 2 project directors on the project and they helped to keep all on track on the full aim. We',ve used a project treatment method and with this all was smooth and pellucid. The interaction was veritably fast in between us.
Results achieved
Can you share any information that demonstrates the contact that this project has had on your business?
The website is propeled a few weeks ago, but with the upgrade, we',re able to process orders much faster. Product treatment and administration are now needed 30% less effort on our side. The website accomplishs much better so the manual task can be done faster. With this, we saved a lot of time.
Clients are lucky that with such a big change they have all the existing information, rewards etc in hand and no need long learning curves to act the website. The new platform opens up new gates for us to use more advanced labors from now.
We',re more secured thanks to all the implemented functions. And since we had just a very pliant downtime with the change we',ve not lost any business in the searching upgrade time. I am sure the numbers will try that we made a good determination with the change in the upcoming high period.
How was project treatment arranged and how powerful was it?
We had 2 project directors and if any of them was not useful the other project director helped out with all of our upcoming questions and issues. We',ve used Trello boards for fast interaction and treatment. Every one task, a request was checked out and made the total process pellucid between the developers and our staff.
What precisely do you attend to be the key specialty of Staylime?
All the outgrowth work went through the project directors so we not needed to work with developers at all. The total work was done on a staging environment and ported only to the live website when they were done. With this, we minimized the downtime. With such a big change, I was veritably surprised how smooth the propel was. Enjoyed the total process.
What should be done better, if there are any desired imtryments?
It is not easy to tell anything. Of order, as a client would be mental to have things prompt in a very brief time, but we frequently underrate the required work and effort that is needed for such a change. I do not have anything that I would change. Only can hope we will have a chance to work in the forthcoming too.
