Byte Art have today launched the new consumer website for Ryness the famous national chain of lighting and electrical stores.
- “Our website had been running for several years” said managing director James Shortridge “and we had built and run it all mainly in-house but we need a dedicated agency who could help update and migrate our website systems.”
As the sole specialist retailer of light bulbs (with over 1000 types in stock and a promise to find any type that their customers want) and lighting in London their systems were mission critical and a careful project plan was designed and ahead to ensure the minimum of project down-time as the sites were migrated in part between the old legacy servers (running Apache) and the new ones. A test-bed suite was set-up to ensure any compatibility problems would be ironed out well in advance of the move. A series of instructions and documents were created to allow Ryness's in-house IT team to easily manage and configure the sites in future.
“We have been very impressed with their skill-set and project management” said James Shortridge. “Byte Art were extremely efficient in migrating our e-commerce systems”.
