The challenge
Although sales were coming in, the team noticed a decline in site speed and back office performance coupled with a need to keep the platform up to date.
The solution
After a comprehensive platform audit, we set about roadmapping an upgrade which included a removal of redundant code and modules.
We designed and rebuilt the theme using a modern framework and switched third party modules to a composer based installation method with a view of making future updates as seamless as possible.
The team alo continue to use Wordpress, which we removed from the Magento architecture and server off-site for added security.
