Zumiez had an aggressive ecommerce growth strategy, but increasingly unstable code base. They approached Delorum for Magento commerce integration, custom Magento module development, enhanced usability, and to integrate several leading ecommerce services... in half the time.
solution:
PCI Compliance: We began by architecting a Magento hosting environment and Magento cart to reduce their PCI requirements from SAQ D to SAQ A, saving tens of thousands in policy, employment and auditing costs.
Frontend Redesign: While staying true to the Zumiez brand, we completely overhauled the user experience to simplify usability and increase functionality... no tacky Magento templates.
Administrative Tools: We provided robust, customized Magento admin tools that streamlined the Zumiez workflow, giving complete catalog, customer service and promotion control to their in-house staff.
Best of Breed: We extended the Magento API to integrate with some of the industry’s top solutions, including Endeca, Coremetrics, ATG, Cybersource and Akamai for guided navigation, analytics, recommendations and fraud screening into a single, seamless solution.
Ongoing Support: We continue to provide Magento backend development for Zumiez, working in tandem with their IT department and hosting provider to optimize site performance and execute a long-term strategy for growth.
deliverables:
- optimized magento hosting
- enterprise magento database
- magento cache configuration
- frontend UI design
- upgraded magento admin
- multiple custom magento modules
- expanded magento promotions
- magento / ATG / Endeca / coremetrics
the result:
In the months following launch, online sales have increased 70% over last year, and we continue to tweak our Magento customization. Zumiez’ in-house web team also has full adminstrative control over ad campaigns, product management and promotional packages.
