The challenge

GO IN's previous online store already benefited from the features of Shopware 5. Thanks to this shop system, an innovative product configurator was integrated into the website, allowing visitors to customize furniture within the shop. With these cutting-edge features, GO IN won the "Shop Usability Award" in the B2B category in 2015 and was named "Best B2B Manufacturer" in 2018.

Motivated by these successes and with the aim of staying on top of the game, GO IN recognized the need to take a technological leap forward. The goal? An advanced system allowing flexible integration of third-party systems to enhance the functionalities of the shop. The decision was made to upgrade from Shopware 5 to Shopware 6.

And it doesn't stop there – thanks to Shopware 6, GO IN's average shopping cart value has increased by 10 %. The company also saw a noticeable increase in sales. However, the variable conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic make a direct comparison with the performance profile of the old shop difficult.

GO IN and Shopware 6: What's next?

After the successful migration to Shopware 6, GO IN is now focusing on the next development phase of its ecommerce platform. For 2024, GO IN intends to expand its customer service with an innovative self-service feature allowing customers to place sample orders themselves. This added feature aims to enhance the shopping experience and the customer's decision-making process.

The positive experiences with Shopware 6 have reinforced GO IN's decision to switch to Shopware 6. The company looks to the future with optimism and is committed to continuously improving and expanding the new online store as a key component of its digital sales strategy.
