What was the scope of the project involved?

The scope of the project was an upgrade of our Magento 1.x platform to Magento 2.x. The upgrade optimised the functionalities for visibly better performance, but it also modernised the entire platform with improved and contemporary security measures. It required a lot of effort than simply running a predesigned script configured to a custom solution. A proper strategy was crucial for our successful upgrade that defined the entire process. It took a substantial amount of work to understand its structure, data points, dependencies and et cetera. After that, we upgraded effectively. When we finalised the upgrade plan and strategy, other certain factors determined the actual time-consumption like the complexity of our online store, our data and the number of customisations. In addition, a new upgraded Magento theme was completed in which the developers integrated third-party modules as well as other add-ons. Not to mention, the tasks involved in the migration of the platform. The updated platform of Magento 2.x has quite a distinct architecture. Therefore, the migration involved a handful of tasks such as; • Creation of a clone of the original Magento 1.X store. • Installing Magento 2.X. • Installation of the corresponding Magento 2 extensions that were used in the existing platform. • Migration of data from the cloned platform to the new Magento 2.X platform. • Implementing the corresponding Magento 2.X theme. • Creating the corresponding extensions that were not available in the updated version. • Completing the store configurations. • Implementation of all the third-party API modules. • Post-deployment testing. • Going Live with the new platform. Upgrading our Magento store from version 1.x to 2.x was quite beneficial. However, the process involved was quite complicated and time-consuming. We had to re-purchase some of our extensions and invest in creative solutions to ones that were not available in the newer version. A lot of time and cost was involved but the end result was definitely worthwhile.

There are many challenges with the website development and the type of script which was introduced, most of the script which has been used has been modifield to my own requirements as there required many changes along the way. The speed and performance is excellent and communication without doubt first class.

How did Dotsquares meet your requirements?

10 out of 10, my project manager Nikhil has been invaluable to the project, his knowledge, work ethos and ability have proven invaluable to the progress and the implementation of the tasks throughout the first phase of the development. I look forward to working with Nikhil on the next phase of development.

What do you value about Dotsquares?

I have a direct line of communication with Nikhil via Skype and the time difference is also an advantage, the majority of the days work is uploaded at midday (GMT) and reviewed and any amendments are made later the same day or added to the working document for the following day. The negotiation of price and time allocated before scheduling work is tiresome and is also time consuming for both myself and Dotsquares, i understand as a company you need to focus on the time / cost and return on investment but i do get the feeling there is a senior level of management pushing project managers to collate more hours on individual projects that have not started. With any business you only generate revenue when you are working and not when you are negotiating. All IT project overrun and there are always improvements and alterations made from the original working document which clients except and are more than happy to pay whilst the development continues.
