The right tech stack was chosen and since the system grows very fast, it has become modern, and secure in a short period. Nowadays, thousands of customers are using the basic version of Clodify for free.

In 2016 Matt Caddy managing directory met Skynix online and having some agreement, Skynix made a proposal for building a proper team to get the software on the right rails. In a team of 6 engineers during the next two years, we architected a reliable system based on the microservices of the AWS provider. The existing system coded by Indian developers on the outdated Yii framework was taken as a conception and was rewritten from scratch using moder for that year Yii2 Framework, RESTfull APIs, and jQuery UI Framework. In the end, we launched a fully automated and reliable SaaS solution and during next year EMAC got their first 1000 happy clients. Nowdays, we keep supporting this complex system, develop and adapt it for new needs.

<h3 class="title-h3 content_strong--blue">First, they found that site speed has a direct correlation to conversion rates</h3>
<p class="grid__content">As it is not possible to convert large, heavy and slow Magento frontend.</p>
<p class="grid__content">The solution here was to code a completely custom theme using fast and modern Javascript framework - Reactjs, and use Magento and it's RESTful API as a backend only.</p>
<p class="grid__content">Following implementation of Reactjs, page speed was multiplied by six ( ! ) times! This helped improve conversion rates by 30%, meaning more profit with less expense.</p>

<div class="grid__col6">
<h3 class="title-h3 content_strong--blue">Second, optimizing order management processes</h3>
<p class="grid__content">The business had grown to the point where Bikebiz team couldn't process all orders during business days. And they noticed that this process in Magento is quite over-engineered and slow.</p>
<p class="grid__content">The solution was to code some order management application using Javascript Vue.js framework and Magento API. This application was picking up new orders from Magento and let staff process it using intuitive, super fast interface and workflow.</p>
<p class="grid__content">This helped to speed up the process 1.5 times and let them be ready for more orders and growing income.</p>
