UltraSource USA supports food producers across the U.S with top-tier processing and packaging equipment. As demand grew, their outdated Magento 1.3 site on legacy infrastructure couldn’t keep up, resulting in a complete site outage and significant business disruption. Their goal was to find a more scalable hosting solution to support their growth, one that would also cut their rising hosting costs.

Before migrating to Nexcess, UltraSource faced several pressing issues with its outdated Magento 1.3 platform, most critically, escalating infrastructure costs that were draining their budget without delivering the needed performance. The platform also lacked modern performance and security features, making routine updates difficult and growth harder to achieve.
Their expanding product catalog strained storage limits, while frequent cache failures caused poor site performance and ongoing disruptions. Slow support response times further prolonged downtime, resulting in a complete site outage that severely impacted sales and customer trust.
Our Approach: Driving Growth Through Optimization
UltraSource needed more than just a new server; they required a scalable, future-ready platform. We upgraded their Magento store by migrating it to Nexcess, reducing infrastructure costs, improving performance, and strengthening their operations to support growth.
By migrating their site to Nexcess within a month, we helped UltraSource eliminate inefficiencies and reduce their hosting expenses by 70%, while resolving critical infrastructure issues and improving speed and uptime.
By optimizing backend load handling and cache management, we ensured stable performance during peak traffic, maintaining increased conversion rates.
Leveraging Nexcess’s SSD-backed infrastructure, Redis caching, Varnish, and CDN delivery, UltraSource now enjoys reliable, seamless site performance with no downtime.
