My experience with AddWeb is quite good, so far. Fully satisfied with a quick response time, communication, and flexibility to scale up resources when needed. They listened to our problems, made recommendations, and helped us make our store more responsive and feature-rich.

The Business Needs / Challenges

For Lladró, with their increasing customer base and thousands of orders, providing uninterrupted services and excellent user experience become the need of the hour. Given the immediate nature of online consumers and fiercely competitive market, Lladró was facing the following challenges:

The client’s existing IT incumbent was underperforming to resolve their ad-hoc requirements and challenges.
The client spent too much time managing their ongoing conflicts between existing IT support and maintenance service providers.
The existing IT support and maintenance service provider wasn’t able to fulfil the client’s requests on time.
Productivity was being affected by ongoing issues, and frequent delays in the bug fixes or enhancements suggested by the client.

The client was not satisfied with their existing IT support and maintenance service provider. They were looking for a strategic IT support partner who was equally motivated towards providing application support and becoming a helping hand in their ongoing store enhancement activities.

The Lladró team was looking for someone to offer more than support. They needed a managed service company to ensure the ongoing availability and development of the IT service and help maintain and develop and improve their existing Ecommerce website to broaden their reach.

The Solution

AddWeb Solution accepted the project on short notice. It employed an incremental expansion strategy to gradually support various operations of the Lladró Ecommerce website, including bug fixes, incremental changes on the user interfaces, introducing UX/UI changes, and more. AddWeb Solution employed a round-the-clock support model to help clients leverage offshore resources and reduce the overall website maintenance and support budget.

To address the challenges of Lladró, we began delivering services including application maintenance, major and minor enhancements, and production support services. Among the highlights:

Set up an offshore team to work closely with the client’s technical and business team.
Deployed a strong technical team to understand underlying code and deliver daily fixes with acceptable quality.
Cater application support, provide day-to-day operational support, and generate reports.
The established delivery process to move defects or enhancements to the QA or UAT environment before moving to the production.
