The Challenge
The client, Anixter, is a billion-dollar industrial supplies distributor, with whom Avatria has worked on numerous projects related to their website and eCommerce platform. A full catalog of our work with the client can be found here.
For years, Anixter utilized Google Analytics for much of their analytics and reporting needs. However, there were limitations to the Google Analytics product suite that made it difficult for Anixter to conduct A/B tests. Recognizing that Adobe Analytics would seamlessly integrate with Adobe Experience Manager, Adobe Audience Manager, and SAP Commerce, Anixter decided to migrate away from Google Analytics in favor of Adobe. This would facilitate data collection, reporting, A/B testing, and advanced personalization, all on a standard platform.
Anixter engaged Avatria to implement Adobe Analytics on all SAP Commerce pages across their flagship site, Anixter.com.
Results
In the end, Avatria was required to migrate over 20 page templates, impacting a product catalog with nearly 1M SKUs. The initial development effort, including go-live, was completed in 8 weeks.
