Client

With over 45 years of tradition and innovation, BottegaVerde is the no. 1 brand in Italy for natural cosmetic products, being present in over 20 countries.

Challenge

Build a custom online shop on a legacy custom made platform.

This is a real challenge! For any developer to take control on legacy custom made software, and for any product owner to find developers ready and capable to do this job.

Solution

Using a custom framework, pre-existing and owned by BottegaVerde.ro, ControlF5 built a complete eCommerce solution, with independent modules, integrated and streamlined for the company's flows.

How we worked

This project was built on a long period of time, with gradually launched functionalities and modules, based on market feedback and in pace with the growth of the business and its marketing strategy.

Being built on a custom PHP framework with a monolitic architecture, 2 full-stack developers and 1 QA tester were involved.

The communication between the client and the development team was on our Project Manager responsibility.

Agile – Kanban was the way of doing the development process, with periodically releases in production and feedback sessions.

Outcome

Working with BottegaVerde since it first launched on the Romanian market, we have developed a complete eCommerce platform capable of meeting the company’s needs and offering customers a simple and fast way to enjoy brand products.

ControlF5 is still a trusted partner for BottegaVerde, developing new functionalities while providing support and maintenance services for the smooth running of applications.
