The Challenge

1-800-Flowers, a leading online floral and gift retailer, struggled with their core customer engagement feature, "Smile Reminder," built on outdated, separate architecture. This created compatibility issues, data fragmentation, and slow site performance, frustrating customers and hurting conversions.

As e-commerce competition intensified post-pandemic, they needed to modernize their platform with AI-powered personalization to improve customer experience and retention. They chose Coforge to redesign their engagement platform for better performance and customer loyalty.
