eCommerce Development

Stages of development

We are developing according to the regulations. General scheme:

Team

Already at the start of the project, we introduce the customer to the team. Typical staff: project manager, analyst, technical writer, 2-3 programmers, art director + designer and 1-2 QA-specialist. As usual, all this is supported by top management: technical and account directors.

Terms of Reference and Prototypes

We interview the customer’s workgroup, collect briefs and communicate with the customer’s IT service. From this work, a technical assignment is born: the document on which the site will be submitted. We also render - draw interactive prototypes of the future site.

Adaptive design

We draw a responsive design, thanks to which the site is correctly displayed on all computers, tablets and smartphones.

Stack of tools: Figma, Sketch, Photoshop.

Development: regular, urgent and agile

Development is carried out on one of three methodologies:

— Classic. This is a consistent development model: TK, prototypes, design, layout, programming, 2 test cycles and delivery.

Example: TopGun Barbershop website. We launched the project in 4 months.

— Urgent. Here the stages go in parallel, for example, having drawn only the main page of the site, we already give it to the layout. Or put half of the layouts - start their implementation. Allows you to save time twice, but also costs 50-100% more expensive.

Example: System-Capital (“Sistema”) - parallel development of the site and personal account + parallel execution of work stages (2 and 3 months, respectively, for the site and LC).

— Agile. Flexible methodology, ideal for corporate portals, where it is more correct to assert and do one task at a time than to design something that will be out of date by the time it is approved. Agile consists of weekly sprints, and every week you can manage the development and change the vector of development of the project.

Example: «Thank you from Sberbank» — 2 months of initial development and further gradual integration of Sberbank's new partners.

Support and maintenance

We have five testers in the state who check the work both manually and through automated tests. What is important, we do this not at the end of the entire project, but at the end of each weekly stage, which provides control over the time frame.

Production: development scheme, version control, autotests.

In the process of writing a terms of reference, we form the scheme of blocks of a site with dependencies: this allows programming in stages, as well as giving parallel tasks to programmers.

Using a version control system for a project, you can put several programmers at once, and their changes are easy to track. The same technology is used in further support site.

When you submit a project, we use both automatic and manual testing to provide for everything. Download a sample report about testing the site.

Website integration with 1C and other systems

At this stage, we are working with the Customer's IT service: we are developing an exchange API, designing data exchange channels. Result: one- or two-way exchange with 1C, ERP, AXAPTA, SAP and another 20+ lesser-known accounting and automation systems.

Here here we described integration cases with 1C, and here - a list of integrations with other systems.

We have our own 1C programmers in the state, so we will help with the maintenance/refinement of your 1C.

Online payment and delivery calculation automation

Configured and programmed more than 30 different types of payments and deliveries. See what exactly they implemented.

CRM Integration

We will set up your CRM (Bitrix24, AMOCrm or RetailCRM), after which you will have detailed reports on sales, “cutting” for different types of Clients - for SMS and e-mail newsletters, as well as analytics on profits in the context of advertising sources and types of goods/services. Read more about Bitrix24 and its functions..

DevOps and highload

We have our own DevOps engineers: we will build the optimal update deployment scheme, configure the cluster, and conduct load testing. And after the launch of the project, we will provide 24/7 supervision.

What stand out

Quality standards. In 2018 we confirmed the quality management standards: we are certified according to ISO 9001: 2015 (certificate) and ISO 27001: 2005 (information security management).

Transparency of development. Clients see Studio employees in our Intranet system and communicate with them directly. The agreements are fixed in the tasks, the information is not lost (unlike mail or phone).

Warranty period. We provide a termless guarantee for work, the specialists will give you free advice on the administration and further development of the project.

When are we most effective?

• project for b2b and need expertise in such projects
• the site is integrated with several systems at once, and not everyone has documentation
• the site is already now / there will be high loads (from 10,000 visitors per day) and everything should work quickly
• for a number of works you need not only “hands”, but also “head”, that is, analytics and consulting
