Challenges
- Business had 2 different websites on different Magento 1 stores and both sites were processing orders separately.
- Both stores were running on older versions of Magento 1 which required security patch installs. To keep the store secure and assure safety of business data, it was required to upgrade websites to the latest Magento version.
- Sales data and customer information of both Magento 1 stores were required for the business to keep existing customers active and sales process to continue from single site instead of 2 stores for smooth execution of business.
- Also the design layout of old websites was outdated and that was a problem in providing their customers with the best user experience while using their web shop.
- Checkout page was not user friendly on the old web stores which was resulting in lower customer conversion rate.
- Company had to make decision to update website to eliminate security vulnerabilities and merge all sales, catalogue and customers data from both Magento 1 stores to new secure Magento 2 store and make customization in checkout process to enhance customer’s shopping experience.
Our Solution
