About Our Client
Our client specializes in selling high-quality carbon parts for cars and motorcycles. Along with their wide product range, they also offer custom carbon parts, giving customers the flexibility to get tailor-made solutions for their vehicles.
They decided to migrate from ZenCart to Gambio to upgrade to a more modern and feature-rich platform. Gambio provided better customization options and improved performance, making it the right choice for their growing business.
Our Client’s Requirements
The client needed a smooth migration of their key data, including products and orders, to Gambio. Also, since their store served customers in multiple regions, they required both English and German languages to be migrated accurately.
The Challenges
One challenge in this project was ensuring that both English and German content transferred correctly. During migration, there was a risk of language data not aligning properly, which could cause missing translations or formatting issues.
Our Solution
To solve the language migration issue, we customized the process to export the language file from ZenCart and import it into Gambio. This ensured that both English and German content transferred correctly without missing translations or formatting errors.
For the rest of the data, we ran our All-in-One Migration Service, accurately transferring products and orders. As part of this service, we also set up 301 redirects and preserved URLs to provide a smooth browsing experience. With this approach, we ensured a seamless migration while keeping all important data intact.
