Our Process

Upgrading your Magento Platform

Magento is a flexible platform easily updated if a knowledgeable development team followed standard Magento practices. So before touching your website, our team starts with an in-depth code, server, network and asset review. Here, we look for outdated services, configurations, and core edits where the standard Magento practices were not followed that will prevent a smooth upgrade or hinder site performance and SEO. Working with each client, we also identify areas for improvement to increase traffic and sales through funnel optimizations, branding, SEO, and design. It can be easier to implement these elements during an upgrade process, so we go over them to save time and money.

To prepare the site for the latest Magento upgrades, our team begins by repairing out of standard Magento customizations. We then follow the standard Magento upgrade process, merge your now other standardized site customizations into a fresh Magento install of the new version. If the cost of bringing customizations into standard is prohibitive, we can use an alternative in place migrations and clean-up method. We add other upgrades to bring your system up to date and be compatible with your new version of Magento, such as 3rd party extensions, ERPs, security patches, and server system updates .

The next important step for us is QA testing, especially during an upgrade, to ensure the website functions correctly. After finalization, we run the site through a final test upgrade and validate your site's comprehensive launch checklist . Once everything looks great, it’s time to perform a complete backup of your entire site rollout your updated site.
