Customer:

Our client, one who has a retail business selling socks, was finding it challenging to offer a wide range of sock varieties from different brands on a single eCommerce store platform. The client wanted to migrate his existing Joomla website to Magento 2. The main concern was that the client wanted to upgrade the Retail store but without compromising the data or rankings.

Challenge:

The primary challenge involves the migration of the website from Joomla to Magento 2 without the loss of any data and site rankings. Redesigning the entire website from scratch while maintaining the speed and performance of the website. Also, the client wanted to import about 16,000 products from Joomla to Magento 2 using Magmi components.

Starting with the detailed project kickoff meetings with the client to understand the client’s vision and goals. After evaluating the existing website on Joomla our team planned the migration process to ensure a seamless transfer from Joomla to Magento 2 without loss of any critical data and rankings.

Key Features:

  • Website Design: To overcome the challenge of presenting a wide variety of socks, our team has created a sleek and modern website design. The design is not only visually appealing but it also prioritises user-friendly navigation.  
  • Multi-Language: Integrated the Google translator so that the users can access the website in various languages offered by the Google translator. This will help the client to reach out to a broader audience.
  • Sticky Icons: Sticky icons to view the recently viewed product, share, and back-to-top option. It remains fixed in its position as the user scrolls down the webpage, this will provide easy access to any action or information. Here the user can easily view the recent products they have viewed no matter what section of the website the user is referring to. 
  • Brand Wise Products: The users will have an option to browse the products based on the brands. Upon selecting any particular brand, the user will get to view a list of products that a particular brand is selling. 
  • Compare Colors: This comparison feature will allow the customers to compare the colours. The users can view all available product colours and can select the different colour options that the user wants to compare. 
  • Currency Flexibility: This functionality will help the users to switch between the EURO and US Dollars based on the users’s preferences and location. This icon will remain fixed in its position as the user scrolls down the webpage. This will provide  
  • Advanced Search: Enhanced the search functionality to enhance the user experience, it will display the popular and recent searches with real-time product matches as user types.  
  • Secure Payment Gateways: Integrated secure payment methods using Stripe and Paypal to make payment transactions more safe and reliable.
