Monsoon Consulting

Adobe Commerce and Drupal agency

Offices in Dublin and London are home to Monsoon Consulting, a digital commerce agency. It specialises in Magento, now branded as Adobe Commerce, and in Drupal, and it builds ecommerce and content management applications for businesses that sell online. The company says it is a Silver Partner of Adobe Commerce and has been an Adobe partner for many years.

Team and track record

The firm describes a team of around forty specialists covering consulting, design, development and infrastructure. Its London and Dublin team works through content development, user journey mapping, development and support. The company says it has completed more than two hundred content and commerce projects in Ireland and the UK. Clients have included major online sellers, public sector bodies, sports governing bodies, universities, and firms in life sciences, pharmacy and hospitality.

Business-to-business commerce

Much of its newer work is B2B ecommerce for makers, wholesalers and suppliers. One case on its site describes a custom ordering experience for a buying group with more than 160 stores across Ireland, with personalised account management, customised pricing, high-capacity fulfilment and accurate inventory data, and with more than 33,000 financial documents accessed each month. The company reports a 30 percent uplift in online order value, a checkout reduced from five steps to three, and more than one hundred pieces of custom functionality. These figures are the company's own.

Process from discovery to support

Work starts with discovery and vision workshops, followed by UI and UX design, frontend and backend development, and then support and optimisation after launch. The firm says each stage is shared among its consultants, designers and developers so that the client's goals stay in view throughout the project.

Partners, events and community

Monsoon works with other technology suppliers, including OroCommerce, Storyblok and Luigi's Box, which it brings in for search and product discovery. The company says it is a member of the Builders Merchants Federation. It also says it founded and ran Ireland's only Magento community meetup, takes a leadership role in the Drupal Association in Ireland, and has won awards for its work. It describes its eCommerce software as built on more than twenty years of B2B experience, and says it has recently opened an office in the UK.
