Introduction

Aiding in a more precise diagnoses, improved workflows, and superior patient care, Carestream Dental is on a mission to transform dentistry, simplify technology, and change lives. Providing imaging systems and practice management software for general and specialist dental practices, Carestream Dental had a home-built Content Management System (CMS) that was incapable of servicing their customers. With an already implemented Optimizely CMS, they were looking to add Optimizely Commerce to their digital ecosystem while addressing some existing pain points in their Optimizely CMS instance. Carestream Dental elected to update Optimizely and chose a phased approach to modernize and represent their content better than ever before.

“Our site is a global site, only offering eCommerce in 3 countries and they’re all vastly different. It’s been nice to have a partner that has eCommerce experience to help tidy up our site’s back-end capabilities in the best possible way.”
Dan Mclean, Marketing & Customer Experience Strategist

A deeper look,

An Updated Navigation & Information Architecture

From the beginning of the project, Carestream’s navigation and IA was proving difficult for customers to find products due to issues with categorization. We worked closely with the Carestream Dental team to recommend the best way to restructure their IA in a way that is more natural from a navigational standpoint.

There was also a lot of confusion on the customer’s part about what is available to quickly order, and when a sales representative needs to step in from the Carestream side. Through creating a more robust navigation system, it allows customers to better search their products and lead users to what they are looking for in a more intuitive way.  

The website is now much more in line with the way that Carestream Dental customers shop, making it clear where to go for shopping, training, support, and more.

Along with navigation, we made updates to the product detail pages and product listing pages that allows them to be much more user friendly. These improvements include providing specific details about each product, making the shopping experience a more informed decision for shoppers.
