Project Overview
About Pool and Spa Center
We produce Europe’s finest quality Hot Tub, & Swim Spa Lids. Using marine grade vinyl and 5″ to 3″ virgin foam our ‘Made to measure’ custom covers are ideal for your spa.
The business (Bubbletubs Ltd) was incorporated in 2003, the initial aim was to provide great customer service, achieve realistic margins and grow organically. Whilst meeting our strategic goals, we learnt along the way providing new and exciting ideas as we progressed.
Objective
The Pool and Spa company had legacy system built using PHP and Angular JS. Over time, this system had become heavily dependent on the original developer. The team realized that upgrading and managing the project was becoming nearly impossible due to the developer’s constant search for new opportunities. This left the business in a difficult position, unable to modify or scale the system, which was not only outdated and vulnerable but also provided a poor user experience.
The business was heavily reliant on this legacy system, which caused a lot of concern. However, when they contacted RVS Media, we reassured them that we could get their business back on track. We quickly signed the project within two days.
Our primary goal was to migrate the data, taking into account the format and product types, which included bundle, group, and configurable products. Additionally, we aimed to redesign the website’s user experience and interface and build all the custom features they had developed over time using Magento Open Source. This would ensure a more modern, secure, and user-friendly system that could easily be modified and scaled to meet the business’s needs.
Challenges
We faced variety of challenges when dealing with legacy systems. These systems, often built on outdated technologies, can be difficult to manage and upgrade. The dependence on the original developers, who may no longer be available, adds to the complexity. Furthermore, these systems are often not designed with scalability in mind, making it difficult for businesses to grow and adapt to changing market conditions. Lastly, outdated systems can be vulnerable to security threats and provide a poor user experience, which can negatively impact the business.
