Aims & Preparation

Most of this is included if you get the Installation & Setup Service

Follow the Easy Install Guide to get Clean up and running.

Make sure you have your Magento Cron running - Clean uses it to index your sales for display.

 

What Does Clean Do?

  1. Redesign and re-UX of core Magento areas
    • Responsive, flatter, design, optmised for both mobile and desktop
    • A color system that prioritises the most likely action on each screen
    • A re-imagining of the Orders Grid, making it obvious what you're looking at
    • Config section simplified, with expandable sections (that remember your settings), so you reduce clutter and only see what you need to see
    • Works in tandem with powerLogin (bundled free at launch), for a customisable and responsive login screen
    • Add the company logo to the screen and remove the Magento branding. It's your company, let's make the team proud to work here!
    • A bit of *personality*! User avatars...there may be a supercow lurking! Seriously, we're looking at this all day, let's brighten it up a bit. (There's an option to turn it off if the beancounters are lurking)
  2. Workability features to help keep your business running Right Now
    • New order notifications (even when not in the browser)
    • Out-of-stock notifications, as they happen (with stockEasy installed) - act on stock changes immediately
    • Automatic Orders Grid updates - see orders as they happen
  3. A useful dashboard you can be proud of
    • You'll be watching this on your mobile, and showing off to colleagues and friends
    • Graphs that you can hover over and get exact figures from
    • Numbers that make sense and match up with what you're seeing on the charts
    • Updates happen in real time (planned feature addon in next version release)
  4. Integrates perfectly with shipEasy, pickPack, and courierRules

Clean is a total re-imagining of Magento and how it interacts with you and your team.

If you feel like you're looking at a late '80s mullet every time you log into Magento (seriously, what's with all that orange?), then you're going to like this.

Way more than 'an admin theme', Clean has been designed to boost the UX when using Magento.

You should find it easier to Get Shit Done and train other people to do the same.

You'll have a better overview of your business, so you can optimise your time where it's needed.

We're all on fondleslabs these days, so we've set Magento up for optimum mobile browsing : check your sales for the day from the park bench (right up to the previous hour).

When you're at the office desk you want to see more, so Clean is designed around that as well.

We live in a world where everyone expects results Right Now. Clean helps to show you what your customers are doing, as they do it.

If you line Clean up for your boss or your client, get ready for a giant smile and a slap on the back - Magento no longer looks and acts like a 'software engineered creation', but as the powerful core behind the business that it should be.

  • If you're a Magento developer, Clean will help get customers on board to Magento, and will help them stay.
  • If you're running your own store, Clean will a) make you happier each time you log in, and b) make life easier when managing your business inside Magento.

Setup

There's actually pretty minimal setup required.
