About the Client

Evaris is a leading UK B2B IT supplier delivering a wide range of hardware, software, and managed IT services to organisations in both the private and public sectors, helping businesses and institutions scale and operate more efficiently.

The Challenge

Evaris were in the process of migrating their shop from M1 to M2 and were working with a UK agency that ultimately failed to complete the project. Consequently, Evaris had to quickly find a competent Magento agency to step in and finish the migration working to a tight budget and timescales.

Why They Chose MageCloud

After an initial scoping call and some discovery work, we could define a prioritised roadmap for completion of the Magento migration within the required budget and timescales.

 

The client appreciated our agile and proactive approach. We quickly progressed from fixing issues and troubleshooting to discussions regarding advanced functionality that had never been on the agenda with the original developers.

 

In recognition of our ability to deliver their M2 store, the client has retained us on an ongoing basis to support and maintain their Magento web shop.

Technical Partnership

Having initially been selected to provide development support, we quickly established ourselves as the trusted technology partner for Evaris and have since been retained for the launch of a second eCommerce store on Magento.

We came across MageCloud when searching for a Magento Partner to rescue our Magento 1 to 2 migration. Right from the start I found them to be knowledgeable, approachable and responsive.

Paul and his team are easy to work with and have always gone the extra mile delivering exceptional value for money compared to other agencies we’ve previously worked with. Highly recommend!

Work Process

In addition to the problems reported by the client, we also identified and fixed a variety of additional software and technical issues as a part of our comprehensive review.

When Evaris quizzed us about their plans to launch a new store to promote a different brand, we suggested deploying the new shop using Magento multistore functionality. We built the store from scratch and launched the site just 2 months later saving the client significant time and money compared to other quotations they received.

Beyond the Development

Right from the start, our relationship with Evaris was always more than just “develop me what I need”. The client frequently turned to us for consultancy support. We were able to add value through our ability to analyse and feedback both from a technical and a commercial perspective.

What I respect about Magecloud is our honest and transparent relationship. If you think something is a bad idea you always tell me, even if it’s to your detriment financially. In that sense, I regard you as an extension of our internal team.
