Business Challenges

Their existing website did not have the modern technology, providing an antiquated look. The site was built on a Magento 1 platform and had sub standard mobile compatibility, tedious to navigate course catalog and a back-end login area built on a completely different technology just so it could connect with their Oracle database.

The Magento 1 platform was also very cumbersome. With an admin interface that was difficult to manage and navigate, it was quite exhausting for their user base to administer the site. In addition, Magento 2 came with numerous performance updates.

Below is a view of the old website.
