Seamless migration success: E.Leclerc’s journey to improved media performance

E.Leclerc relied on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) and Adobe Dynamic Media Classic, which struggled to handle massive media ingestion. The platform’s slow performance and limitations made it hard to support their growing e‑commerce needs. High maintenance, development, and licensing costs added financial pressure, prompting the search for a more flexible, cost‑effective, and powerful alternative.

E.Leclerc migrated to Scaleflex’s Filerobot Digital Asset Management and Cloudimage Media Acceleration. With MACH‑certified headless capabilities and robust APIs, the teams could make agile enhancements and tailor integrations. Fast synchronization improved ingestion and overall performance. CLI‑driven operations-including auto‑resizing on upload, smart‑tagging, version control, and intuitive search-streamlined governance and sped up time‑to‑market. The transition was completed without business interruption and delivered significant cost savings.

The migration delivered measurable wins. E.Leclerc successfully moved 12.5 million master assets to Filerobot, mapping existing Scene7 URLs to new endpoints without front‑end changes-ensuring no business interruption. Implementation was three times faster than with previous providers, while maintenance, development, and licensing expenses dropped fivefold. With improved ingestion speed, responsive support, and GDPR‑aligned data protection, the teams boosted productivity and accelerated time‑to‑market.
