Description: Russell Rhodes was founded in 1997, creating high-end personalized Christmas gifts for gift stores nationwide. Denys from Russell Rhodes states, “Eleven years ago, Russell Rhodes migrated from wholesale manufacturing to online retail sales, offering 3000+ Christmas ornaments that can be personalized for all occasions. Categories range from first Christmas ornaments to kids’ sports ornaments, as well as higher-end ornament gift ideas for Mom and Dad featuring exclusive Russell Rhodes designs, as well as Polish ornaments by Christopher Radko.”
Technologies Used: Denys continued, “After working our way through ShopSite and Miva, we elected to go with ShopSite and have been comfortable ever since. ShopSite has been incredibly robust and able to meet our highly technical needs with custom fields particular to every product. We were also able to seamlessly and easily incorporate our own custom code – more than 15,000 lines of it, perfectly working at all times.
LexiConn has been the single most responsive hosting company we’ve ever worked with. I have consistently been helped regardless of the day or time of night. LexiConn’s shipping module makes up for what ShopSite lacks, giving us the sophistication we need to ship worldwide. We’ve also integrated Pidgin live help successfully, and have been able to effortlessly manage our subscription database through LexiConn’s mailing module.
With a large number of custom fields and a lot of customized code, we’re thrilled at the wonderful, problem-free experience we’ve enjoyed with ShopSite, and specifically LexiConn.”
