E-Commerce

We've produced an array of e-commerce solutions with varying implementations in Umbraco.

Umbraco Packages

Our package of choice is Umbraco Commerce (formally Vendr) as we believe this gives the business users a large calibre of features to choose from including:

  • Product Variants
  • Pricing
  • Taxation
  • Payment Methods
  • Delivery Methods
  • Discounts and Gift cards
  • Transactional emails and Invoices
  • Exports

API Integrations

We've also implemented e-commerce solutions through integrations with tools such as Shopify and other inventory management systems. Giving the users a seamless editing experience to produce unique flexible content while still having the benefits of pulling product information and tracking sales through the separate platforms.

Payment Providers

On smaller e-commerce sites, we've built our own implementation to utilise Umbraco Content and Dashboards. This has many of the same features as other e-commerce platforms available without the additional licence fee. With a direct implementation into your chosen Payment Providers this ensures a smooth transition between the two systems

On top of the base e-commerce offerings, we've also worked with Businesses to turn Umbraco into a full management powerhouse. Using various different integrations into other systems, ensures that Umbraco can be used as the single interface to manage all sales made. Some integrations we have worked on previously include: CRM systems, Invoicing tools, Stock and Inventory Management, Delivery Systems and more.

Website Migration

Migrating from a previous CMS or another provider is never easy, so here at Digital Resurgence we have steps in place to help this process much easier. When migrating a site over to us, we'll complete a website Audit initially to check the various aspects of the application to fully understand the application. 

If the application is migrating to Umbraco from another CMS, we'll plan out the work involved and give you a fixed price for this to eliminate any hidden costs. The development process will ensure that all the previous functionality can be carried across, while eliminating all the issues and pain points identified during the audit. So not only will your new site be on one of the best CMS's available through Umbraco it'll also be an improved and optimised application to help you get back to business quickly. 

If the previous website was on Umbraco and you're looking to change Providers, we'll plan out the transfer of the application. 

We will be on hand to help with any communication to receive the various backups and documentation. After receiving what we need we'll get this all setup on an environment so we can undergo thorough testing before scheduling a switchover date. 

Umbraco Upgrades

Umbraco upgrades are our specialty having worked on countless migrations. 

Minor and Major Upgrades

These upgrades are typically more straightforward. This will involve us initially upgrading the site locally before deploying to other environments. We can then complete any regression testing needed, before planning the release to production, minimising any downtime or impact on users.

Umbraco 8 to latest

With Umbraco 8 EOL we have streamlined our upgrade process to help you get onto the newest version of Umbraco in the most cost-effective way possible.

After completing an initial audit on the website, we can then undergo our typical upgrade process upgrading the application code and tools used. During the migration not only will we get you onto the latest version we will also bring your application inline with best practices. Any additional changes can also be fitted into this process to help further cut time and costs. 

Worried about having to re-author content again, please don't… Having completed many migrations from V8 before we've got many tools to move content to your new and improved site to take the work off you and your team.

Optimisation

Working with many websites, has meant we have an eye for identifying where optimisations are needed. Throughout the years we have learnt the methods to squeeze as much out of a website as possible. 

This includes:

Performance

  • Reducing load time
  • Reducing page size
  • Caching
  • Improving Lighthouse Scores for SEO

SEO

  • Redirects
  • Performance
  • Keywords
  • Content
  • Search rankings

Accessibility

  • Colour contrast
  • Enhancing for assisting technology
  • WCAG compliance

We can complete Audits on your websites covering a full website Audit or individual areas of the website to see where enhancements can be made. We also provide services to make these improvements to your website. 

Website Hosting

We have experience Hosting websites across different platforms, such as AWS, Azure and Umbraco Cloud across both Virtual Machine Servers and App Services. 

Our understanding of the tools and services available will ensure that your application is hosted securely and is scalable to meet your applications traffic. We've setup various different applications including single instances, load-balanced environments and multi-regional websites.

All applications are set up using CI/CD deployment pipelines, for fast and safe deployments without the additional costs. We will regularly audit the resources at use, to identify any issues or potential issues that may arise so we can minimise any downtime or effect on the user base.

SEO

As part of our development services we'll ensure that your website meets the SEO criteria to rank highly in search engines. We also aim to have the website scoring highly across PageSpeed Insights and Lighthouse scores so it's fit for purpose. We have built and used many packages previously to optimise SEO and provide an intuitive interface when editing content to allow you to sustain this through its lifetime.
