Migration from 2 Different Magento 1 Stores to Single Magento 2 Store

Challenges

  • The 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 the 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 the sales process to continue from a single site instead of 2 stores for smooth execution of business.
  • Also, the design layout of Contractor License’s old websites was outdated and that was a problem in providing their customers with the best user experience while using their web shop.
  • The checkout page was not user-friendly on the old web stores which was resulting in a lower customer conversion rate.
  • The company had to make the decision to update the website to eliminate security vulnerabilities and merge all sales, catalog, and customer data from both Magento 1 stores to the new secure Magento 2 stores and make customization in the checkout process to enhance customers’ shopping experience.

Our Solution

  • Our Magento 2 development team suggested upgrading the current Magento 1 store to Magento 2 in order to utilize the advanced features on the new platform like best security, increased performance, and great user experience.
  • Our expert  Magento 2 Developers  migrated all the information of Catalogue, Orders, and Customers to the new setup of Magento 2 from both the Magento 1 websites.
  • With the migration from Magento 2 to Magento 1, we resolved inconsistencies between all the Sales and Catalog data with a customized solution so all previous Orders are accessible for business and existing customers both.
  • Our  professional Magento SEO team made sure that all the old website URLs are redirected to the correct pages on the new webshop for best SEO.
  • A custom solution was developed to meet the requirement of business to merge data of 2 Magento 1 stores into a single Magento 2 store. Along with that, all the Sales data of both stores was marked with separate prefixes so that the business can identify which sales were processed in which store before the migration to a single Magento 2 setup.
  • Our eCommerce website design team designed and integrated a new layout for the website according to current trends with mobile-friendly creativity for a better user experience and applied a new Magento 2 theme.
  • With the setup of our in-house developed Icecube Digital’s extension Mageice OneStepCheckout, we improved the customer shopping experience which is also compatible with their 3rd party payment solution.
  • Another customized solution was applied by our Magento development service team to transfer a custom Map including states which redirect customers to appropriate products belonging to that particular state from the previous Magento 1 store.

Results

  • Upgraded to Magento 2 for advanced security features.
  • Migrated and merged Catalogue, Orders, and Customers seamlessly
  • Revamped design and checkout process led to higher conversion rates
