Introduction: Powering Growth for a Specialist Sound and Lighting Retailer
Prebeat, a specialist retailer of professional sound and lighting equipment, migrated from Visualsoft to Symphony Commerce in 2026 after outgrowing the capabilities of their previous ecommerce platform.
As their product catalogue expanded and their B2B operations became more complex, Prebeat needed a flexible, scalable ecommerce solution that could support premium brand merchandising, streamline multichannel selling, and meet the expectations of modern commercial buyers.
Their previous setup made it difficult to evolve quickly, limiting how products were presented, how efficiently channels were managed, and how confidently the business could scale.
Visualsoft lacked the flexibility needed to support an expanding catalogue and evolving commercial requirements. Making meaningful changes often required significant effort, slowing down progress.
Prebeat needed greater control over how products were presented, particularly when showcasing premium brands and tailoring experiences for different customer types.
Fixed templates restricted the ability to refine the user experience or modernise the site without extensive redevelopment.
Managing listings, pricing, and stock across multiple sales channels was time-consuming and prone to inconsistency, placing unnecessary pressure on the team.
Ongoing technical frustrations and limited support reduced confidence in the platform and created uncertainty around future growth.
