Hoff is one of the largest Russian hypermarket chains for furniture and household goods, combining offline stores and an online platform.

We began our work with Progressive Media in 2014 on a project to support and develop our main website and online store www.hoff.ru

We would like to note the professional approach to the development process, strict adherence to the core principles of project management, and the distribution of workload between developers. In the process of developing new modules and new functionality, Progressive Media specialists take a responsible approach to tasks, correctly build the integration logic, and carefully study HOFF's current business processes.

We can boldly recommend working with this company and are pleased with the results of our cooperation.

Pobeda is a Russian confectionery factory founded in 1999. It produces chocolate, chocolate candies, and other confectionery products.

With Progressive Media, we are working on the store.pobedavkusa.ru project. The digital-unrerpatopa team conducted a complete analysis of the site, performed a code review, selected optimal tools, and approached tasks on the 1C-Bitrix platform with great responsibility.

Choosing Progressive Media as a contractor is driven by e-commerce experience, specialist competencies, and the "price-quality" ratio. Separately, we will note the development of the website's backend: integration with 1C, postal services, and delivery services. To increase throughput and reduce the load on the site's database, we have implemented extensive functionality for optimizing external requests; in the near future, we plan to transition caching to Redis to further accelerate site loading.

The team's work is conducted professionally under the guidance of a dedicated project manager: processes are structured, the team fulfills all agreements and knows how to find solutions aimed at developing our business. «Pobeda» LLC is pleased with the joint work with Progressive Media and recommends the company for the development of e-commerce projects.

CAC (Central Asia Certification) — a certification center that provides services to confirm product compliance with international and national standards in Central Asian countries.

ООО“Central Asia Certification” (SAC) approached LLC “Progressive Media” with a request to automate business processes to optimize team performance and enhance control over task execution. During the work, it was important not just to implement the tool, but to deeply understand the processes, identify gaps, and propose the most effective solution.

The “Progressive Media” LLC team conducted a detailed analysis of current work processes, identified key growth points, and proposed an optimal automation strategy. As a result of joint work, Bitrix24 was selected, which allowed for the systematization of task management, automation of deadline control, and convenient documentation management.

Special attention was paid to adapting the system to the real needs of CAC so that employees could easily master the new tool. Following the implementation, training sessions were held for management and the team, where key functions, automation capabilities, and configurations for specific tasks were analyzed in detail.

The result was not just the implementation of the system, but a full-fledged improvement in internal processes, which helped the CAS work more coordinatedly, reduce routine operations, and increase the transparency of all certification stages.

We value our cooperation and are pleased to recommend "Progressive Media" LLC as a reliable and competent partner. We hope for further successful cooperation in the future.

Technonicol is an international manufacturer of construction materials, supplying products to more than 100 countries worldwide. Household goods, combining offline stores and an online platform.

"UTS Technonicol LLC" thanks the Progressive Media team for developing the new mobile version of the tstn.ru website.

We are grateful for your flexible approach to solving the set tasks, for the high-quality visual design of the idea, and for its technical implementation. The complexity of the development lay in the unique design related to our company's field of activity — the production of construction materials and systems. The specific nature of the business affects the need to add a large number of complex elements, such as customized delivery and the ability to calculate building system elements for specific parameters. For the mobile version of tstn.ru, more than 60 unique design layouts were prepared, including various user states and behaviors, popups, and feedback forms.

At each stage of the project's work, Progressive Media specialists demonstrated a deep understanding of trends and technologies existing in the web space. Proposals and amendments were taken into account and promptly submitted, ensuring the continuity of interaction processes. According to the results of the first three months after the project launch, the number of active users of the mobile version of the site increased by 50%, and according to key metrics, conversion increased more than twofold.

We are fully satisfied with the cooperation and recommend Progressive Media as a conscientious and responsible contractor.

Skillbox is an online educational platform that implements professional training programs for students from Russia and CIS countries.

We approached Progressive Media with the task of finalizing the current version of the Skillbox online platform for conducting webinars based on the Laravel framework. And the solution to the main business task is to increase audience reach through the webinar platform, which should lead to an increase in course sales.

At the beginning of cooperation with Progressive Media, the online platform was developed by the company's own efforts. After analyzing the launch, we decided to improve it. Users experienced inconvenience during the feedback transfer process, and moderators lacked sufficient broadcast management functionality, resulting in the company losing a significant portion of its target audience.

To fulfill the business task, an action plan was developed in collaboration with colleagues from Progressive Media:

— improve the usability of the webinar page;

— improve broadcast management in the administrative section;

— adjust current functionality to enhance its stability;

— conduct refactoring of existing code.

Progressive Media specialists conducted several test launches of the functionality and analyzed feedback from listeners regarding the innovations. As a result, the platform for conducting webinars was refined, and the notification system and inclusion of special offers significantly increased course sales. And thanks to the refactoring of the code, the broadcast page operates stably even when more than 3,000 users are simultaneously watching the webinar.

We are pleased that our colleagues from Progressive Media were able to promptly join the ongoing project by analyzing our business objectives. We express our gratitude to the team of specialists for the correctly drafted action plan and its high-quality implementation. Currently, Skillbox is one of the leaders in the Russian online education market.

I would like to note that Progressive Media, in addition to its experience in developing high-load systems, possesses expertise in solving business problems, as well as experience in conducting analytical work.

The official Timberland online store in Russia expresses its gratitude to the entire team of “Progressive Media” for their assistance in brand development. Thanks to you, Timberland is successfully developing in the e-commerce segment.

From the very beginning of our cooperation, our partner team has acted in a coordinated and unified manner: account managers paid attention to every detail, frequently visited us for meetings, and worked through every issue in detail. Specialists from the support and development department were fully immersed in the project, sometimes helping with urgent matters during non-working hours.

Since the beginning of our cooperation, many functionalities have been added, and here are just a few of them:

— We have finalized the integration with the Ozon Delivery delivery service.

— We have implemented the storage of the user's entire purchase history and use it for the benefit of the customer: in product cards, we offer the sizes selected and previously purchased by the user, and in the cart, we remember their favorite delivery and payment method.

— We've added a 3% discount on the entire cart when paying online on the website.

Progressive Media's server administration department conducted load testing for our projects, and we subsequently moved them to the “Progressive Media” servers. Throughout the entire period of joint work, there has not been a single failure; the projects are withstanding even peak loads.

KIKO Milano is an Italian brand of decorative cosmetics with a chain of branded stores in more than 70 countries around the world.

In mid-2019, the «Jamilko» company's brand portfolio was expanded by the Italian company Kiki Milano. Our main task with Progressive Media was to help the Italian brand enter the Russian e-commerce market.

In addition to launching the Kiki Milano online store from scratch, several complex integrations were carried out as part of the project, for example, with the Tempoline solution. This allowed us to possess information about the current quantity of goods in the warehouse, as well as to send and receive data on orders. Additionally, integration with Tempoline has enabled the automatic generation of returns reports.

Progressive Media specialists have introduced the Kiki Kisses loyalty program. Within its framework, brand customers are offered discounts and bonuses, benefits from program partners (brands within Jamilco), as well as early access to information about new products, special offers, and events.

Thank you to Progressive Media for the high-quality implementation and attention to our project.
