Moyo’s digital commerce transformation:
Custom E-commerce Website and App Development, CRM implementation
Meet our client and listen to their Solo
Moyo is one of the largest Ukrainian electronics and home appliances online stores. With a ten-year history, the company now owns 57 shops in 32 cities and towns around the country. The clients’ warehouses and showrooms store more than 40,000 electronic devices. Moyo also processes up to 10,000 online transactions per day.
Moyo needed both an optimization solution and the development of new media due to its scaling and intensity of internal business processes and external platforms.
To start and boost a transformation, we offered to implement three solutions: CRM system integration, new website and mobile application development.
-
CRM implementation
Business processes optimization to manage orders and customers’ data
As a result of a business scale-up, Moyo has decided to optimize inner and outer processes. It was needed to set up the ability to display and analyze statistics for various parameters and synchronize the existing 1C system with the new CRM.
-
Website development
Reducing the overload and total website modernization
The main challenge was to get a new custom platform not only to reduce the load on the system and staff, but also to scale the online store in the future. It was essential to integrate a number of additional services to make the website customer friendly and safe.
-
Mobile app development
Shifting to mobile sales and conquering new markets
Shifting to mobile sales and conquering new markets
At some point, Moyo realized that customers prefer shopping with mobile devices. To be on the same page with clients and satisfy their requests, the team has created a mobile application with all the functions necessary for users to make their purchases easily.

Scaling development team
Scaling development team
From the very beginning of cooperation with Soloway (formerly bvblogic), I have been persuaded in the high level of responsibility of their employees in the performance of the tasks of various complexity. All the tasks are always accurately reviewed and implemented on time. In addition to the team of professional Software Developers, you can always count on Account Managers, who support the project as well. The positive experience with Soloway gives reason to talk about further cooperation on a regular basis.

Modules and their possibilities
- The Order module
It allows storing data of each order: a type of order, payment status, delivery status, carrier, cost, form of payment. - The User module
It contains all information about the users, with an option to add a new user. - The Category module
It stores information about all product categories available on the site and detailed information on each category. - The Goods module
It holds information about the number of units available, the price, and the status of the product – promotional, active, pre-ordered, archived. - The Delivery-Payment module
It manages delivery and payment processes. - The Statistics module
It intends to display the analytics for each good/category/brand.
We have chosen SOAP to synchronize the CRM system with 1C. Data transmission from CRM to 1С is made regularly and automatically to keep all relevant information. The CRM system includes different modules: orders, users, goods and categories, delivery and payment, statistics.
As a result of our work on this project, the client has got a robust and functional CRM system that helps the company organize and conveniently process a large amount of information about products, orders and customers.

Benefits
- High Performance Speed
In the development process, it was important to consider the possibilities of an online store scale up in the future and ensure optimal performance and smooth work at high burdens. The task was very large-scale, as it involved the integration of various additional services, payment systems, etc. Nowadays, when about 100 000 customers visit the website every day, we have ensured that Yii was the right choice of technology as the performance speed is high. - Option to track a user’s order
A feature that helps track users’ orders in just one click has been implemented. - A function of the product’s comparison
The main goal is to help users identify key product differences easily by conducting extensive research and, therefore, help customers make the right product choice. - Convenient payment systems
To satisfy both the customers’ and business needs, a safe, quick, and easy-to-use payment system has been implemented. It is supported by different banks so that everyone can find the best way of payment. - Personal online assistant
Virtual Assistant can help manage incoming inquiries and make the buying experience even more convenient.
At the beginning of our work, our technical specialists conducted a qualitative examination of the project and suggested developing the service on a highly-effective PHP Framework – Yii, because of its flexibility and convenient architecture, etc. Yii Framework is a great choice for projects with high loads.
As a result of our more than 2-year cooperation with our client, we have managed to create reliable and successful relations, and the market share of this particular online shop has increased twofold within 2 years.

Benefits
- Online shopping App
Moyo Shop offers a wide range of goods and services in a single app. It allows a client to buy the necessary goods and track the order with simple interaction. - Personalized promotion
Personalized promotion helps identify visitor’s segments with the help of their distinct preferences or needs and then it creates targeted experiences using customized offers, promotions and discounts. Personalization also encourages impulse and repeat purchases. - Instant delivery status update and the possibility to make an order 24/7
Such possibilities are highly appreciated and promote utmost customer satisfaction. At the same time, satisfied customers eventually place more orders and increase business profit.
To release the application in the short term, we have combined the elements of WebView and Java code. To optimize the application work with the high burdens, we have cleared the system from excessive blocks of Web pages. Moreover, the program has a function allowing the client to monitor the order status in a RunTime mode. This functionality is based on Google Firebase. Later, the application was moved to the native code. The app is being constantly improved.
Every new project we start working on is a special one and has its Way. It was a challenging task for my team to satisfy a customer’s request, but we have found a perfect solution.
