O'Mac website migration to Magento 2 and high-level optimizations for providing a complete brand-centric experience.
THE CONTEXT
Our Client
O-Mac is a nationwide network of stores selling tools and equipment for home & garden, agriculture, and forest.
Initial project
The initial project’s objective was to turn an online product catalog into a modern and responsive e-commerce website. At that moment (in 2015), we developed the website on a full-custom platform.
Once the business evolved, a refreshing project was needed, so we migrated the initial website to Magento1.
The O’Mac website, developed by our team, was awarded at GPeC in 2015 for the best e-commerce website from House, Garden & Tools category.
Client’s needs & goals
In the past years, O'Mac business visibility grew. Once the company defined its position on the market more efficiently, the opportunity to launch its own products became a must-have.
Our client had to develop a refreshed digital environment to be able to succeed positioning O’Mac as a reliable and trustworthy brand.
The new requirements
The client decided to refresh O'Mac's digital approach by rebuilding its website and focusing on the presentation of their product catalogue, while keeping e-commerce features for allowing on-site acquisitions by end-users.
The solution
For developing the new version of the O’Mac website, we chose Magento 2, for its robustness, extensibility and a strong back-office business operations management offering stock, client, product catalog, and orders management.
Magento 2 advantages:
- ease of product catalog management;
- secure platform, with periodical updates;
- free license (Open source);
- responsive interface;
- integrates SEO, marketing, and promotion tools;
- feature-rich mobile experience;
- access to the largest developers community and a variety of modules.
