Our Process
Our process focused on delivering a seamless Magento upgrade while addressing any existing issues. From thorough planning and module updates to comprehensive testing, we ensured that the project was completed smoothly with minimal disruption to Versapak’s operations.

Requirements
Versapak came to us looking for a Magento upgrade. The highly successful company dealing in reusable tamper-evident bags, pouches, and security seals had a good store running on Magento 2.2.1. They were using several modules on their online store and wanted to update the modules to their respective latest versions too. Their website suffered from existing bugs and issues which needed to be resolved. We recommended upgrading their site to the latest version (2.4.0).

Solutions
We collated the relevant details and information required to proceed with the upgrade, whereby we provided the client with a full list of modules and bugs that needed fixing in order of priority. All essential modules were repurchased by the client to ensure that they were up to date with the platform upgrade. Their old site was copied onto our development site, where we completed the upgrade and fixed any bugs that appeared.

Results
Since onboarding, Versapak has upgraded its support from our Bronze package to our Silver Support Package to enjoy more benefits such as security scanning, SEO Health Checks, and payment gateway checks. We have recently looked at new ways to improve their site through suggestions from their Account Manager, such as enabling Apple Pay and Google Pay via Stripe, installing a smart search function, and adding a search bar to the megamenu, with increasing conversion rates and improving bounce rate at the forefront of all suggestions.

Great work with the team at Chilliapple. They undertook our website maintenance from a previous developer and they have managed to accommodate many of our initial needs, including an upgrade to Magento 2.4.
