Visionary Integration Professionals (VIP) and Wine Country Gift Baskets® (WCGB) are partnered to deliver a superior shopping experience.
For more than a decade, VIP has worked hand-in-hand with WCGB to leverage the power of Micro Focus LoadRunner Professional software to ensure peak performance from their online eCommerce store to support their mission critical seasonal onslaught of customer orders.
WCGB experienced a dramatic increase in holiday orders during Q4. The company also saw a significant uptick in sales throughout the year, as shoppers chose to use gift baskets as a way to connect with friends and family in 2020. The expansion of their corporate sales initiatives also helped to drive significant year over year growth.
“VIP stress tests our full IT infrastructure ahead of our most demanding buying seasons,” said Al Niemuth, General Manager, Wine Country Gift Baskets. “Together, we proactively pinpoint areas of concern before they can impact our ability to deliver the high level of service our customers have come to expect.”
The WCGB website is optimized to handle requests in excess of 12,000,000 per hour and order entries of more than 25,000 per hour.
“We have worked closely with Wine Country Gift Baskets throughout our longstanding partnership to assure they are well prepared for their busiest shopping periods,” said Jeff Bettcher, Chief Business Development Officer of VIP. “We are deeply committed to helping our clients best serve their customers.”
