3DXTECH was running on a WooCommerce platform and the site did not have a clear customer focus (Novice or Expert user). 3DXTECH also had another website (3DTriton) which they wanted to merge with 3DXTECH site laying the foundation for growth. Some of the key requirements were ease of management and lower TCO for the sites while having a seamless connection to Acumatica Cloud ERP – the ERP system in use at 3DXTECH. Further, 3DXTECH wanted the new site to reduce the customer drop-off points and increase conversions, improve site rankings, and sales.
Launch Project
With multiple sites that were operating in silos and not integrated with the back-end ERP system, 3DXTECH was relying on numerous manual processes that consumed valuable time, resources, and increased the likelihood of costly errors.
With a significant amount of business coming from B2B customers, features such as customer specific products and pricing, payment terms, ability to simplify workflows in the quoting and approval process, easy re-ordering, etc. that were critical to business success were missing.
With the company supporting 3 different types of customers (Industrial Consumers, Prosumers or Knowledgeable Consumers, Regular Consumer or Hobbyists), it is essential to ensure that the buyer journey is simple and clear for each of the personas. With each type of buyer requiring a different level of capability, UX has to be carefully crafted.
Acumatica is the operational ERP in use at 3DXTECH, and the company relies on Acumatica to manage financials, manufacturing (planning and production), distribution including sales and purchase order management, along with integrated Warehouse Management system. Acumatica’s in-built Shopify Connector was utilized to seamlessly sync products, inventory availability/quantity, customers, orders, and shipments between the ERP and Shopify.

This new site was significantly faster (by 54%), streamlined fulfillment processes, reduced order processing efforts, improved delivery times, and increased customer satisfaction in a very short time after launching the new site.
