Boost Sales. Enhance User Experience. Achieve Growth.

In today's competitive online marketplace, having a robust and user-friendly e-commerce platform is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity.

This case study explores how iColdo empowered a leading DIY industry business, to achieve remarkable results by implementing Magento 2.

Understanding the Challenge:

The customer approached us with a vision to elevate their online store. Their existing Magento 1 based platform struggled to deliver a seamless user experience, affecting conversions and their team’s workload due to the tedious processes thus hindering their ability to scale.

Key challenges included:

  • Outdated technology: The platform utilizes older technology compared to Magento 2, limiting its ability to integrate with modern marketing automation tools, advanced payment gateways, or custom functionalities specific to the client’s industry.
  • Feature gaps: The platform lacked built-in features that Magento 2 offers natively, features that Magento 2 offers to address client needs, e.g., improved product content management tools, robust content staging capabilities, or built-in SEO optimization features.
  • Clunky Interface: The previous backend interface can be cumbersome to navigate, hindering efficient store management for the client’s team.
  • Dependence on legacy implementations: The client’s content management team was highly dependent on custom implementations that have been implemented in the course of 10+ years of development.
  • Security Risks: The previous platform is no longer actively supported by Adobe, meaning it's vulnerable to security breaches and exploits. This poses a significant risk as their business grows and attracts more traffic.
  • Performance Bottlenecks: As the client's business scales and traffic increases, Magento 1 began to struggle to handle the growing demands, leading to performance issues and potential downtime.
  • Limited Growth Potential: The architecture of Magento 1 makes it challenging to integrate with future technologies or adapt to evolving e-commerce needs, hindering long-term growth strategy.

The Magento 2 Advantage:

iColdo recognized the potential of Magento 2 to address client’s challenges and unlock their full e-commerce potential.

Magento 2's robust features and flexibility offered a perfect solution:

  • Enhanced Security: Magento 2 benefits from ongoing security updates and patches from Adobe, providing a more secure platform for the client to protect their customers data and transactions.
  • Improved User Experience: We optimized the store's navigation, design, and mobile responsiveness, ensuring a smooth and intuitive user experience across all devices.
  • Improved SEO Capabilities: Magento 2 offers built-in SEO features and a more search-engine friendly architecture, helping the client's products achieve better visibility in search results.
  • Content Management: Magento 2 provides a robust content management system (CMS) that allows for easier creation and management of website content, product descriptions, and blog posts, empowering the client’s content team to have greater control over their online presence.
  • Marketing Automation Integration: Magento 2 integrates seamlessly with popular marketing automation tools, enabling the client to implement targeted marketing campaigns and personalized customer experiences.
  • Omnichannel Support: Magento 2 lays the foundation for an omnichannel strategy, allowing the client to connect their online store with physical stores and provide a consistent customer experience across all channels.
  • Faster Checkout Process: Magento 2 offers streamlined checkout options like guest checkout and one-page checkout, reducing friction and improving conversion rates.
  • Advanced Reporting & Analytics: Magento 2 provides comprehensive reporting and analytics tools, allowing the client to gain valuable insights into customer behavior, website traffic, and sales performance, enabling data-driven decision making.

Results that Speak Volumes:

The implementation of Magento 2 transformed the client's online store, leading to significant improvements:

  • Enhanced Conversions: Conversion rates saw a rise of .5% in the first 4 weeks after launch.
  • Improved User Engagement: Faster loading times and a user-friendly interface led to a more engaged customer base.
  • Scalability Achieved: The Magento 2 platform empowered the client to handle increased traffic volumes with ease.
  • Full feature transition: 15+ years worth of implementations in the old platform have been either migrated, adapted or re-implemented from scratch in Magento 2 to have the full functionality available to the client.
