Testimonial

Main Page Product Recommendations

Recommendations algorithm analyzes the visitor and adapts dynamically: new customers see bestsellers, while returning visitors are offered the products they’re most likely to like according to their previous behavior.

Product Page Recommendations

On the product page, customers are shown items from related product categories. The recommendation algorithm applies business rules. For instance, it displays women’s gear to customers shopping only for women’s items and recommends products the customer hasn’t purchased yet.

Cart Recommendations

The cart shows popular accessories that complement the customer’s order. These recommendations were handpicked by Enlightened Equipment’s team based on their product knowledge.
When customers encounter a 404 page or an empty search result, Maestra prevents frustration by presenting bestselling products. This keeps shoppers engaged and helps guide them back to their intended path.
