An Intuitive App to Search & Buy Gifts & Gift Registry for Our Green House

The Brief

About Project

Since 2003, Our Green House has excelled in eco-friendly gifts. 

Our Green House contacted WebDesk Solution because they wanted to scale their growth and improve their user experience. Our Green House owner Pam Davis told us that the Volusion store had become unreliable during checkout and was losing revenue. They chose BigCommerce as their new platform home after exploring their alternatives with our development team.

WebDesk Solution created a new store from scratch and oversaw the migration of the products, categories, customers, and order data to BigCommerce. A platform-to-platform move generally is a perfect time to rebuild the website and majority of the clients use a platform transfer as a chance to revamp their site. On the other hand, Our Green House wanted to ensure that they will maintain the design that their clients were accustomed to when they switch to the new platform. Our Green House also needed a custom-made product information editor tool with various requirements. 

Challenges

The Challenges

Gift Registry

Any gift giver sincerely hopes to give a gift that will make the recipient happy and grateful. This isn’t always the case, though, unless he or she can figure out what the other person wants or needs. Receiving duplicate gifts and things they don’t need or wouldn’t use is a common concern for any celebrants. The client wanted to eliminate such issues using a gift registry. As part of their project, the customer asked for the gift registry to be integrated into their website. The scope contained a few unique requirements that set the store apart from the competitors, and Webdesk used bespoke table structure to deliver this functionality.

Gift Basket

Gift baskets are simple to put together and can save both time and money. In addition, gift baskets are a personal and unique method for the sender to convey his or her thoughts. Our Green House offers a variety of pre-curated gift baskets. Still, they also wanted to give customers the option to construct and personalize their own to guarantee that they send a present that is ideally customized to their needs. The objective included the creation of a gift basket, which functions similarly to a sub cart in which consumers may construct a gift basket. It was difficult since there are so many goods, and we had to segregate them so that buyers could add products straight to the basket before adding the basket to the cart.

Bulk Edit Private App

Prior to this, the website contained duplicate items, each of which could be found in many categories. The client wished to get rid of the duplicate items and regulate the quantity of products with a single click. A cuddle toy, for example, was replicated in both the toy and animal categories. The client wanted a comprehensive bespoke app with several ways for editing one or all product fields with a single click. Editing many products can be time-consuming; perhaps they only want to modify the pricing or a brief description of all products in a specific category.

Our Solution

Gift Registry

After login into their account, a customer can establish, manage, or delete his gift registry. One must provide information about the event as well as the delivery address. The celebrant can add the product’s desired quantity by clicking the Add Products button from Gift Registry or by clicking on Add to Registry from any product page. A celebrant can share the gift registry with friends and family using social media links, email, or copying the URL and sharing it. Any gift contributor can access the gift registry using the celebrant’s link or through Our Green House’s website homepage > Registry > Find a Registry option. All the gift giver has to do is look through the present registry and click Buy on any of the items he wishes to present. The Gift Registry listing can be edited at any time by the celebrant. 

Gift Basket

WebDesk Solution has developed a five-step wizard for customers to design their personalized gift baskets efficiently. In each phase, the consumer will have multiple options to choose from, such as the style of basket, alternatives to add various products to the basket, ribbon color, and charity cause. Through the creative craftspeople they assist and the sustainable materials they procure, Our Green House has always been devoted to giving back to global problems. So, as part of the bespoke 5-step wizard, Our Green House needed to incorporate a donation page.

Customers can leverage dynamic filters such as color, theme, price, and occasion on each selection stage page. 

Bulk Edit Private App

WebDesk Solution developed a unique web app that can help change all of the product fields with ease. Our Green House can edit Product Code, Image, Name, Price, Sale price, Categories, Brand, Stock, Visibility, featured product, sorting order, and many other fields with a single click using the custom private app. The custom app lets them update custom fields and search for specific products using custom-built filters and search options. Our Green House can also find the product by searching with SKU to modify a particular product. The custom app provides 20 custom fields for each product; however, if the client wants to see only a few columns for rapid editing, they may use the Customize Columns option to see precisely what they need. They can also save their column selections so that they don’t have to do it again.

Customization

Mega Menu

Megamenu enables the visually distinct classification of categories. On the other hand, a simple drop-down may become disorienting if the number of menu sections grows too large. One of the reasons we revamped the megamenu column layout was to make it easier to divide the categories into multiple levels.

Custom Filters

To enhance the aesthetics and user experience, WebDesk’s developers built faceted filters that used brand-appropriate colour schemes and categorization. Together with the rest of the design work for the homepage, blog, system and content pages, banners and category and product pages, this results in a more cohesive online experience.. When it comes to customising their shopping experience, users may choose how many products appear on a page and how they are organised based on several criteria (by item, theme, and collection).

Theme

We upgraded the theme as Our Green House wanted to update its theme to reflect the new version with a better visual aesthetic.

Clients

Client Testimonials

WebDesk Solution team was pretty easy to work on our website, the designers were excellent at their job as they created the design as per our expectations. The most important part for our website was the Data migration, for which we were a bit worried but the way they created the script and migrated the whole data was the best thing because we saw that the whole data was migrated without any loss. The project managers were very polite throughout the project and in the warranty period, too.

We at Camera Source, recommend WebDesk Solution for their services as we are highly satisfied with the work and their customer service.

WebDesk Solution was referred by one of our friend that had worked with them. The idea of the app was to provide local deals in the city and our major concern was the security of our data. We spent a good time communicating with John and we found his company not just a development agency but our app's technology consultancy as he suggested the best technology to use by keeping our security concerns in mind and he also suggested a few other features which we didn't think even. His explanation was crystal clear of why we should use flutter for the Mobile app and laravel for the backend of the mobile app. We were stunned to see the easy to navigate custom dashboard with features like Vendor Management, Coupon's management, Analytics, and Reports to name a few.

We spent almost a year in the development of the Mobile app with an easy to use backend and an informative App landing page. This team is now managing our complete technical requirements as we are still expanding the app functionality with a good response from our customers in the first launch.

We feel we will use WebDesk Solution for years and we recommend their services to everyone in our network.

We had to develop an online store for our Optical business(Supervision Optical) and we found WebDesk Solution from one of our contacts

WebDesk Solution team explained to us the functionalities we should need on the website and we were amazed to see their knowledge. Their quotation was quite impressive as they provided me with a detailed scope of what I will get on the website.

About the price, This team wasn't the cheapest, it wasn't the most expensive, but it was by far the best value. They provided the mockups which were exactly what we expected and the development was also pixel perfect.

This was a 5-star experience and we have also signed the maintenance contract with them.

We wanted a top-quality corporate website with a custom design as per our business needs. Webdesk Solution helped us with a couple of mockups at the very first stage as per the branding guidelines we provided them. Their design skills were excellent and they proposed us Wordpress CMS as we told them we need something SEO friendly and they explained how Wordpress CMS will be beneficial for us in long term SEO for our website.

As per our business needs, they developed our website and delivered us on time. The best part was that we didn't found any issues after they asked us to review the first version of our website.

We highly recommend Webdesk Solution as a professional WordPress development agency and there are no regrets of hiring them as we were disappointed with our previous website agency.

a year ago WebDesk Solution has refreshed our website twice over the past few years. Both times they were great to work with. James and his team really stay on top of the project, keep you informed, and stayed on me when information was requested from my side. Their pricing is fair, the work is great, and their communication is top notch. I would recommend WebDesk Solution and would use them again in the future. Thanks for the great website!
