Your entire user experience and visuals are a result of these findings. But Question here is- how your customers will find what they need on your Webstore? One simple way is through site search. Magento Enterprise edition is equipped with the most advanced feature “Search term Management” to make your products easier to find. With this feature you can add, edit search terms, can review all the key words and phrases your customers are searching for on your website.

There is no hassle of phone calls or emails involved; customers simply send the RMA request online. Upon receipt, the retailer can either accept or deny the request, making it a seamless process for everyone involved.
