Magstar’s Proven Implementation Methodology

The implementation of an end-to-end ERP solution is traditionally very expensive, difficult, and time consuming. Magstar has developed a systematic implementation method that streamlines this large and important project to minimize the pain of transition.

  1. Gap Analysis

    Before we make any changes to your system, Magstar’s process involves gaining an in-depth understanding of your current setup.

    Our industry experts will analyze how you are currently performing and provide a detailed report.

  2. Software & Hardware Installation

    The Magstar team will travel to your various store locations to lay the groundwork of your implementation according to the methodical plan developed based on your business needs and the results of your Gap Analysis.

  3. Employee Training

    During this process, you will learn how to use the software, and our experienced training staff will work with you to make sure you have the knowledge in place to get the most out of your system.

  4. Lab Testing

    Our analysts put your new setup through rigorous testing to eliminate any potential issues before it enters a live environment. During this stage we ensure that the unique combination of hardware, software and customizations is functioning smoothly before an issue has the chance to impact your store or your customers.

  5. Pilot Test

    The first launch of your new Magstar solution takes place at a single location of your choosing. This means further adjustments can be made to best tailor the solution to your live retail environment without any disruption to the majority of your stores.

  6. Rollout

    When both your team and the Magstar implementation team are fully satisfied with the performance of the solution in the pilot test, we roll out the launch to the rest of your stores.


Once your new system is up and running, we keep you at your peak with the help of our incredible support team, spearheaded by your company’s dedicated Magstar analyst.
