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Also, the design layout of Contractor License’s old websites was outdated and that was a problem in providing their customers with the best user experience while using their web shop.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.

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.

Kind Words

What our client says about IceCube Digital.

Done a great job.

Bhavin and his team at Icecube Digital did a great job on developing a new website for us. Using just our logo and some basic copy, he came up with an excellent design we all immediately liked. It was on-brand and exactly what we wanted. He was extremely fast, friendly and efficient to work with, and we got the site up much quicker than I ever expected. His pricing is very competitive, and we are going to continue to use Icecube Digital for ongoing site maintenance as well as some upcoming projects we have in the works. I’d highly recommend Bhavin and his team if you’re looking for a professional job that isn’t going to break the bank.

Always available to talk.

We have worked with Bhavin and Icecube Digital now for many years for our Magento development projects. We have found that many web developers will talk about a good project, but most fail to back it up. In our early days we had changed from developer to developer, with each either being unresponsive to our requests in a timely manner; starting to charge extortionate prices, or lacking the necessary skill set to work on a complex multinational e-commerce site such as ours. These guys are always available to talk, price competitive, and uniquely, and also have the ability to tackle larger and more ambitious projects whilst maintaining the same personal approach. If you are looking for any Magento design, development, or Magento migration services, this is the best place. I love our new website, Thank you team Icecube digital

One stop shop.

When we set out to rebuild all six of our websites into a WordPress with WooCommerce framework, we knew we would need a business partner that would be with us for the long haul. Ice Cube Digital has been there for us and continues to work with us every step of the way. From designing our sites to launching them, the process has been smooth and trouble free. Ice Cube Digital has always been available anytime we had questions, and issues are always resolved in a timely manner. We are especially happy with the SEO work they have performed, and our maintenance agreement with them that allows us to keep on top of our businesses, instead of worrying about keeping on top of monthly site and plugin upgrades. If you are looking for a complete and cost effect business partner, Ice Cube Digital is your team!
