The Challenge

The Challenge

Bosca’s old site was built on the Magento 1 platform which was soon to be out of support. This was a familiar challenge for the IronPlane team, and after considering several other skilled Magento agencies, Chris selected IronPlane to migrate their digital business to the latest Magento 2 platform.

Bosca wanted to migrate their existing highly customized site to the new Magento platform within 6 weeks. Their goal was to build a captivating digital property offering an uniquely Bosca eCommerce experience with practical improvements in page-load times, visitor to purchase conversion rates, and mobile user experience.

The demands of high quality design and development, a tight timeframe, and budget constraints created a substantial challenge for success.

The Solution

IronPlane’s Colibri foundation was designed to overcome exactly this type of challenge. Colibri is the Spanish word for hummingbird and captures the essence of a lightweight, quick, and supremely effective foundation for design, development, and implementation of the Magento platform. Paired with the team’s collaborative spirit, this foundation enabled a solution that achieved the right balance of cost, functionality, and timing.

Using the Colibri foundation's out-of-the-box features allowed us to limit new development time and maintain our project timeline. These features included:

  • Elasticsearch
  • Matrixrate shipping
  • IronPlane’s Alpaca theme built with Bosca brand and design elements

Our project management team worked with Bosca to carefully prioritize their requirements to ensure on-time launch. Key elements developed by IronPlane included:

  • Customized home page layout
  • Product monogramming
  • Custom RMA forms
  • Configurable product swatches
  • Migration of non-native product and customer data
  • ERP / Magento sync
  • Google Shopping product feeds
  • Google Tag Manager integration
