If everything is touted as simple, why doesn’t it always work that way? One answer lies in selecting the right partner. Of course, identifying an ideal partner without seeing a team in action is never easy. We understand the challenge you face and have developed an Advanced Performance Audit to address it.
On the desktop, MeasureUp homepage performance was up 21% based on speed index, largest contentful paint, time to interactive, first contentful paint, cumulative layout shift, and total blocking time. Overall performance for all desktop products was up 4%, with the same metrics categories used to measure homepage performance on the desktop.

Where Does the Optimal eCommerce Journey Begin?
Our Advanced Performance Audit provides a health check of your Magento web store and prospective solution providers. You can run the audit before signing any long-term partner agreements.
- Identify your strategy and expected deliverables. In the absence of a clear roadmap, the likelihood of your eCommerce journey going askew is high. Take the time to strategize on your long-term approach as you build in short-term deliverables.
- Choose the right platform. The key is to be adaptable. The more flexible and adjustable a platform is, the simpler it is to keep pace with new trends and patterns. Adobe (Magento) Commerce meets that criteria, bringing both short-term and long-term benefits. It offers full-blast functionality from direct-to-commerce customization to marketplaces with clients and order management automation.
- Select the right solution provider. The partner you choose to work with will be the bridge between your goals and what you achieve with the platform. Look for a partner who is certified, demonstrates strong expertise in both the platform and eCommerce, and is a dedicated team committed to delivering on schedule.

This case shows that it is real to reach great results and build long-term relationships based on short-term solutions, like Advanced Performance Audit. It is not only a great way to have a complex health-check of your web store, but also a great opportunity to see a potential partner in action. Interested to learn more?
