Why it works

Reasons to switch to Frontbox

  • Speed

    TTFB ~90–150 ms, LCP ~1.7–2.2 s — top of Core Web Vitals.

  • Smart search

    Elasticsearch: morphology, synonyms, autocomplete, facets.

  • No risks

    Your 1C‑Bitrix and 1C backend stay untouched.

  • Fast launch

    Integration in 2–6 weeks with zero‑downtime traffic switch.

How it works

From integration to launch — three steps

We don’t touch your backend. We connect through API/webhooks, index data into Elasticsearch and switch traffic gradually.

  1. 012–3 days

    Discovery & theming

    Discovery, integration audit, brand theming, infrastructure setup.

  2. 021 week

    Integration & indexing

    Connection to 1C‑Bitrix runs through our module: it integrates catalog, content, orders and user authentication.

  3. 032–7 days

    Zero‑downtime cutover

    Gradual traffic switch, monitoring and backups. Ongoing support for the entire subscription lifetime.

Why it’s safe

Launch with no business risk

We know the cost of downtime in e‑commerce. Frontbox is designed as a product you can switch on and off without pain.

    Your 1C‑Bitrix and 1C integrations stay exactly as they are.

  • Zero‑downtime launch

    We switch traffic without downtime over 2–6 weeks.

  • Rollbacks and backups

    Uptime monitoring, integration health checks and Elasticsearch index backups.

  • Roadmap priority

    As an early customer you directly influence the product roadmap.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Do our 1C‑Bitrix and 1C integrations stay in place?

    Yes. Frontbox is purely the frontend layer. Your 1C‑Bitrix, 1C and all integrations remain untouched. We connect via API/webhooks and never touch business logic.

  • How long does the launch take?

    Between 2 and 6 weeks depending on catalog size and number of integrations. We run discovery in week one and give you a clear launch plan immediately.

  • What is included in the 5 hours of monthly support?

    Consultations, small fixes, content tweaks, release help, monitoring and incident response. Hours don’t roll over month to month.

  • What if we need work beyond the limit?

    Extra features and backend work are billed T&M (time & materials). Transparent time tracking and an upfront estimate.

  • Can we add the native app later?

    Yes. You can start with the base subscription and add the React Native app at any time: +~$220/mo on top of your current plan. Store publishing is included.

  • What about SEO during the switch?

    SEO migrates seamlessly: we keep URL structure, meta tags, redirects, sitemap and robots. Core Web Vitals usually improve immediately thanks to SSR/ISR and edge cache.

  • What happens if we want to leave?

    The subscription doesn’t lock your backend. You can switch traffic back to your original site at any time — your 1C‑Bitrix and all data stay yours. No vendor lock‑in.

  • How is the subscription billed?

    Monthly invoicing. Pricing scales down: Month 1–2 → Month 3 → Month 4+ (final price). We can quote in your local currency on request.
