The Challenge

IconAdda faced significant challenges with their legacy platform including slow page load times (8+ seconds), poor mobile experience, limited payment options, and lack of real-time inventory management. The outdated architecture was hindering growth and causing high cart abandonment rates of 78%.

Our Solution

We architected a modern, scalable e-commerce platform using Next.js for optimal performance, implemented a headless CMS for flexible content management, integrated multiple payment gateways, and built a real-time inventory system with automated notifications. The solution included advanced analytics, personalized recommendations, and a mobile-first responsive design.
