A Profitable Aftersales Platform With Umbraco

Background
Renault Group UK manages digital platforms across a wide portfolio of brands including Renault, Dacia, and Alpine. Their aftersales shop was running on Umbraco 7, which had reached end of life. This posed compliance and security risks, and limited scalability. Renault needed a modern, future-proof CMS to ensure long-term digital success and to support its evolving customer and business needs.

Solution
Renault partnered with dotcraft and Umbraco to upgrade to a newer version and rebuild its aftersales platform using Umbraco Commerce. The solution was designed to be flexible, modular, and scalable, empowering Renault’s internal teams to manage content and campaigns independently.
Key elements included:
- A streamlined Aftersales E-Commerce Platform supporting secure transactions, personalization, and scalability.
- A Service Booking Platform integrated with dealer calendars, CRM, and pricing systems.
- Tools like the Pre-Order Platform, Stock Visibility Platform, and TCO Calculator, ensuring fast deployment and adaptability across markets.
This composable approach enabled Renault to deliver consistent, brand-aligned digital experiences across multiple regions.
Impact
The upgrade delivered significant business outcomes:
- Commercial Growth: 200% increase in order volume, 300% revenue growth, and +2.2% end-to-end conversion increase.
- Operational Efficiency: Content and marketing teams gained autonomy with a user-friendly CMS, reducing reliance on developers and accelerating delivery.
- Customer Experience: Customers now enjoy smoother, faster, and more intuitive journeys across e-commerce and service booking.
- Future Readiness: With a scalable architecture, Renault can continuously adapt to new opportunities, products, and markets.
