Firebear Studio, an online e-commerce platform developer, found that online shopping spend has jumped 23% in March 2020 compared to this time last year. However, vast swathes of business owners may not be capturing important data insights from their customers. This is in large part down to a significant upgrade in eCommerce technology, but the transition hasn’t been seamless.

Globally, one in seven online retailers has adopted Adobe’s Magento eCommerce platform. Magento provides online merchants with a flexible shopping cart system, as well as other functionalities for their online store. Used by over 250,000 businesses, it is one of the most popular services.

Vitaly Verbitsky, Head of Sales & Partnerships of Firebear Studio, commented: “Adobe updated Magento 1 to Magento 2. The upgrade to Magento 2 is meant to provide a seamless customer experience but there is a lot of manual work needed for the business owners. As with any upgrade, there is a data migration aspect. In this case, all the catalog, customer, and order data need to be transferred manually, making the migration a tedious and often expensive process.”

Firebear Studio has created an Import & Export solution which helps online retailers easily migrate their data from Magento 1 to Magento 2.
