Case Study: Crown French Furniture Migrates from Magento M1 to M2 with Absolute Design

Crown French Furniture completes Magento M1 to M2 migration with Absolute Design in June 2020 support deadline

Absolute Design undertook a Magento M1 to M2 migration for their customer, Crown French Furniture, a niche furniture retailer. The challenge was essential as Magento M1 was no longer receiving security updates, which threatened the site's PCI compliance and customer experience. The project involved complexities including replicating existing functionality, migrating product data, and ensuring no negative impact on SEO.

The solution from Absolute Design involved adapting a pre-existing theme to reflect the client's brand and undertaking bespoke development for features like cross-sells and a contact form. They also added new functionalities including an Instagram scroll, a product carousel, a new payment gateway, and advanced shipping integration. The result was a site that was both familiar to existing customers and welcoming to new ones. The client reported Absolute Design was "phenomenal" and provided constant support, leading to a continued relationship for future projects.
