Internet Retailer has highlighted the recent transition of Tool King, a 25+ Million online retailer to the Open Source Magento Enterprise Edition.  The article covers how, Tool King, looking to keep operating costs low, decide to replatform on Magento Enterprise Edition instead of trying to reinvent the wheel and develop a new platform from scratch.

“Building a site from scratch in-house is literally reinventing the wheel and requires a huge amount of time and resources to do correctly, if you can even do it correctly.”

Tool King chose to go with Magento Enterprise Edition due to its value and flexibility which gave them a great platform out of the box coupled with the ability to expand Magento to suit their needs down the line.

“Magento is a solid platform that is flexible enough for our needs, but strong enough to compete with much more expensive e-commerce solutions.”

Tool King is also taking advantage of the Magento BridgeConnect module which allows Tool King to integrate their Microsoft Dynamics ERP with Magento and streamline their back office operations.
