Case Study: Continuing Education of the Bar simplifies site editing and cuts purchase clicks by 30% with nopCommerce

CEB easy site editing for non-IT team members

Continuing Education of the Bar (CEB) is a self-supporting program of the University of California that provides legal practice guides, case law tools and CLE to California lawyers. CEB’s decade-old e-commerce site on Microsoft Commerce Server 2000 needed modernization to deliver classic web and mobile capabilities, a modern UI, easier content management for non‑IT staff, and an up‑to‑date open source platform; they selected the nopCommerce open‑source e-commerce platform to meet those goals.

Using nopCommerce as the foundation, Terrace Consulting designed and implemented a customized site and created a CyberSource payment plugin, working closely with CEB’s core team to meet budget and timeline constraints. The new nopCommerce site delivered a slicker, more modern experience, enabled non‑IT teams to make timely content changes, cut the number of customer clicks to purchase by 30%, and distributed work across more people so CEB can respond faster to business opportunities.
