When do you need Alokai - Familiar business issues

Long time to market

In the modern world, speed is really important, and not only in the runtime context, but it also applies to all development processes. If you can provide business value faster and better, you can just simply outrun your competition. Alokai provides hundreds of modules for all common functionalities, which are ready to be used.

Slow shopfront

Nowadays, people don’t like to wait, so having a fast and performant page is crucial. Some estimates say that up to 1% of users will leave your website for every 100ms of delay in page load. With Alokai, you minimize this time, and it's done thanks to the lazy loading, lazy hydration, extensive caching, and reasonable preloading. Just let it do the hard work for you!

Unresponsive and unattractive (front-end) look

Customer experiences are a key factor that affects the whole user's satisfaction. Even when using the default Alokai theme, it looks and works smoothly. Alokai delivers custom storefronts at a fraction of the cost and time and with lightning-fast page loads to achieve better conversion rates and higher revenue. Also, there are absolutely no limitations in terms of Storefront UI customization. Your theme is just a regular Nuxt.js project, which you can customize freely.

Bad app architecture

Tired of technologies no one knows? Being dependent on your vendor? Choose the solution based on popular technologies. Alokai provides great components for the greatest developer experience.

Complicated migrations

Alokai comes with a set of good architectural decisions based on years of experience with the online selling market.

No mobile website version

Do you know that more than 50% of web traffic is mobile? If you don't have a proper mobile version for your online shop, you just lose money. Alokai solves this issue by giving you a storefront UI library with PWA experience, which looks and behaves like a native app. Thanks to that, you can improve customer experience and may have better conversion rates.
