We can provide the expert Magento support you need to ensure improved performance and better return on investment for your website. As a Magento Business Solution Partner, we also provide free health-checks and can advise on your site’s status and any improvements required.
Our Magento Support Service is tailored to your needs with plans typically starting from just 4 hours of billable time per month. This gives you priority response and a reduced billing structure for any additional requirements above your monthly allocation.
Overview
Our monthly maintenance checks
We perform the following checks every month to ensure your website is running as efficiently and securely as possible:
Check carried out
Security
Module Review
If you are an existing Magento user, we have the knowledge and experience to handle the maintenance and support of your store even if we didn’t develop your site. Perhaps your site is running an outdated version of Magento that needs upgrading, or you may have concerns about the build quality and performance of your site. If so, we can provide a simple, no obligation health-check and can advise on your site’s status and any improvements required.
If your Magento store is a little sluggish or you’re experiencing issues with third-party integrations, a Magento Audit by Absolute could help. Our audits investigate four key areas of a Magento store; technical, security, digital marketing and migration (from Magento to Magento 2).
A strategic and comprehensive audit carried out by our Magento certified developers and Digital Marketing Team will search for areas of weakness and highlight any potential issues. Depending on your site requirements, you can choose the audit you need.
On ‘sign-up’, we’ll use a series of tools to undertake an essential security report to record how up-to-date the version of Magento you’re using is, and indicate the SUPEE security patches it should have installed to prevent known vulnerabilities. If you are a hosted customer, we will also review your current server provision in terms of speed and security and provide the following services:
Resource monitoring
Resource alerts
New Relic advanced analysis.
Typically, clients with existing Magento 1 installations ask us to carry out tasks such as: addressing security following a malicious attack, increasing site speed, improving page ranking or adding additional functionality such as Google Shopping or a one-page checkout. Your support contract can be used to cover these improvements.
We are sometimes asked to make older sites responsive so that they present optimised views on tablet and mobile, however given the investment required for the design and build of bespoke responsive templates, we often advise that a new site is built, based on our Magento 2 boilerplate theme because this is more cost effective.
As you’ll be aware, Magento 2, the next generation of the Magento platform, is now the standard for new Magento sites. We have launched a number of sites based on our pre-developed Magento 2 boilerplate theme.
If your brand does not require a U/X analysis for the complete customer journey but is a typical shopping cart experience, then we can utilise our pre-existing theme for the layout of ‘standard’ page layouts such as categories, products, blogs, about. This means we only need to undertake bespoke design and front end development for the homepage, content page, plus carry over the agreed design to our theme for the remaining subpages.
This approach allows us to deliver a design & build Magento 2 ecommerce website that reflects your brand and product mix at a much lower price point compared to typical site builds., Our Magento 2 projects start at £15,000 for a fully responsive store.
