Case Study: L'Express migrates 1.2 million articles to Arc XP with code.store

L'Express - Customer Case Study

L'Express, a prominent French weekly magazine, faced significant challenges with its obsolete, in-house CMS built on the outdated Symfony 1.0. This legacy system incurred escalating support costs of over €440,000 annually, deterred developers, and lacked the flexibility needed for sales and editorial teams, severely hindering innovation and operational agility. To modernize its digital strategy, L'Express chose to partner with code.store to migrate to Arc XP.

code.store executed a comprehensive migration plan, moving 1.2 million articles and overhauling over 80 templates using Arc XP's headless Page Builder. The solution included integrating numerous external platforms and training over 100 journalists. The vendor's work resulted in substantial annual savings, the launch of 20 new features, and a transformative upgrade that significantly boosted productivity and satisfied the editorial staff.
