What is Magento?

Magento is an online shop software based on the Zend Framework (PHP) and is one of the most widely used e-commerce solutions. In contrast to WooCommerce, Magento Commerce is not just a plug-in, but an independent software. It has numerous out-of-the-box features and impresses with its customisability and flexible architecture.

 

When does soXes rely on Magento?

Magento can be used in a free community version as well as in a paid enterprise version. This means that even smaller customers can use Magento at a reasonable price. Many standard problems can be solved with appropriate extensions. If these are no longer sufficient, the Enterprise version offers many features that make Magento one of the most powerful and user-friendly online shops.

 

Where has soXes used Magento?

soXes has developed a powerful Magento B2B online shop for Carletto AG. Carletto AG supplies the specialised toy trade with excellent products and concepts. In addition to the standard functions, the webshop has a number of attractive special functions.

Carletto
Kunde: Carletto AG
Applikation: Carletto
Technologie: Magento, Interface to Proffix ERP

Carletto AG, based in Wädenswil, supplies the specialist shops with excellent products and concepts for a successful toy trade. Thanks to the new web shop, their customers can order the entire product range conveniently online. soXes was allowed to take over the technical conception and development of this Magento shop within the framework of this exciting project.

This B2B web shop does not only include standard functions such as extended search or filter functions resp. watch lists or change of the display format in the shop but also a number of attractive special functions: Thanks to the instant order function, retailers can import their order as an xls file and thus automatically generate a filled shopping cart. In addition, field staff or specialist dealers can create customised article sheets or generate quick catalogues according to their selection via the web shop. In addition to all these functions, this shop offers a comprehensive image download in various image formats and resolutions as well as a download of price lists and entire data sets.

In this project, soXes was able to bring its own broad IT experience and expertise in the Magento area to bear in a targeted manner and successfully and sustainably implement a further project.

Lucullus
Kunde: Lucullus SA
Applikation: Lucullus
Technologie: Magento Shop, SASS, Joomla

Lucullus SA, based in Stans, is a successful wine trading company known among connoisseurs, specialising in rarities and top wines. Lucullus has a webshop, which is primarily used by wine dealers. In 2010 soXes was allowed to carry out the technical implantation of the new Lucullus website - based on Magento Commerce. Since then, soXes has continuously maintained and expanded the Lucullus webshop.

Clear filter functions simplify the search within the Lucullus webshop. Alternatively the full text search makes it easier to find the wine you are looking for. The Lucullus webpage has been technically optimized by soXes in such a way that search results (even with more than 3'000 records) are listed within seconds. Short response times are of great importance at Lucullus.ch, as it is primarily wine merchants who use the webshop.
soXes has also expanded the shop with a specially developed direct import function. With this function, over 3,700 wines can be imported directly into the database in just a few minutes. The time-consuming procedure of Magento Commerce via Entity Attribute Value Model, according to which each record is transferred individually to the database, could thus be avoided. The direct import developed by soXes is directly linked to Magento Commerce. This means that the user can simply start the import directly via the Magento interface.

In this project, soXes was able to adapt the Magento application to meet the high demands of the customer. soXes showed the customer ideas and ways to technically optimize the web shop.

How do my friends rate services and products?
In this project, soXes has been commissioned to create an app that answers this question. SoXes not only wrote and implemented the technical specification and concept, but also the layout according to the CI/CD templates of the customer.
The Maxxoon app offers the user the possibility to evaluate any kind of product and service in a few seconds. Via EAN/QCode Scanner the app recognises the product to be evaluated with one click. Now all the user has to do is enter his rating. The Maxxoom App takes over the product database from Amazon, so that a comprehensive description including picture and manufacturer information is displayed for each product.

A clearly arranged list shows the user's own product ratings. Another list shows the ratings of the own friends. In the detailed information of the individual products, it is also visible how the product has been rated overall, i.e. by all users in total.
Furthermore, a search mask including full-text search and filter functions makes it possible to find articles where scanning the barcode is not possible.

In this project, soXes not only provided the customer with optimal technical advice, but also implemented the solution and implementation in the back end in a targeted manner. The challenge lay in handling a very large amount of data and the connection of various interfaces (such as Facebook). soXes advised the customer on usability design in advance and implemented the design of the app accordingly.

The Fish Market Shop
Kunde: The Fish Market
Applikation: The Fish Market Shop
Technologie: Magento, Joomla

The Fish Market is a young and innovative Swiss company in the field of eFish-Commerce with headquarters in the canton of Schaffhausen. The main goal is to provide the customer with the best quality and freshest goods directly from the fish market, which are normally not available through traditional distribution channels.

Within this exciting project, soXes was allowed to take over the design as well as the technical conception and development of this Magento shop. This web shop not only contains standard functions such as wish list, search etc. The special function "purchase by weight" is very unique. Because the fish is not only bought by weight, but the final weight is adjusted after the buying process. Because the customer enters the desired weight. But how heavy the fish is in the end, is only finally defined when the fish is packed. Only then is the actual amount charged to the credit card.

In this project, soXes was able to bring its own broad IT experience and expertise in the Magento area to bear in a targeted manner and implement another project successfully and sustainably.

EFCO Online Shop
Kunde: EFCO Befestigungstechnik AG
Applikation: EFCO Online Shop
Technologie: Magento 2 , PHP, Mailchimp, Stripe Payment, Redis, MySQL, SFTP XML

EFCO is the specialist in fastening technology for conversions and renovations and a leading Swiss manufacturer of innovative fastening products. EFCO has been operating an online shop for the distribution of its products for some time. This was implemented with the first version of the open source e-commerce solution Magento. EFCO commissioned soXes to update their online shop to the new version of Magento and to implement some new features.

In a first step, a full specification was created using the existing online shop as a basis, which was enhanced with new features. An updated design concept for the shop was also created to match EFCO's corporate identity. Subsequently, the Magento 2 shop was developed according to the specification and the design concept.

The newly implemented online shop facilitates the purchasing process of fastening materials, light as well as heavy construction machines and their accessories for builders. Several thousand products are available in the shop and linked to each other. Packages of, for example, construction machinery and accessories are designed to simplify the purchasing process for customers. The product structure was precisely adapted to the connected ERP in order to simplify the administration and accounting processes. In addition, it is possible for customers to create a company account with admins. The admins are able to add further users and manage their rights. User rights include which products can be purchased, spending limits or available means of payment.

The modernised shop offers EFCO customers an improved shopping experience with sophisticated filter options, account options and a cleanly structured product range. In addition, the previously incorrectly implemented connection to the company's own ERP was revised and improved. Thanks to the modernisation, EFCO's online shop is once again efficient and competitive.
