Faced Challenges

Security issues: Their online store faced security issues in Magento. Their enormous transaction data and credit card details demanded a higher level of security standard.
Lack of support for magento 1.9 x: Their business growth was stunted due to limitations of Magento.
Integration with IQMS: Their business operation was not seamless and therefore their online store required a strong integration with IQMS to make their end-to-end process agile.

With these complexities, they were not able to utilize their resources to their maximum potential. This is where e.Soft provided the helping hand and scaled up their process with our expertise.

Solution

Our team of professionals started the work by realizing the scope of the project and plan out the entire migration process. After, we prepared the migration data, mapped it and ran through a migration test to verify the results. All the data from the legacy store right from customer info, product info, and content pages to tax rules, we made sure the store was thoroughly migrated to Shopify. Further, effective IQMS integration was facilitated. We validated all the data and functionality successfully before we rolled out the store. The needed workflows were successfully translated using Shopify functionality.
