The Challenges
  • Limited B2B e-commerce tool options
    There were very few e-commerce applications currently available for use in the B2B market. Applications often did not provide the ability to customize, brand or support digital and physical data.
  • Timely analytical data
    B2B stores needed an ecommerce tool that provides analytics and reporting so they could easily integrate corporate IT to finance infrastructure.
  • Process automation
    B2B companies would need a lot of time and resources on routine operations. There were no automated systems on the market for creating personalized PDF documents on demand which resulted in costly, inefficient production.

The Solutions
We created a web platform that allows you to create, duplicate and tailor online stores for various companies.
Customizable
Each online store is customizable depending on the needs of the customer. The store functionality can be configured separately for each client.
Various roles
The site contains 3 portals: super admin (for creating new stores), admin (for managing products, users, orders reports), and the public (to be able to place orders).

Quick set-up
Setting up a site takes only a few minutes. You can set up the products, payments and delivery for a new site with ease.

Integrations
The platform contains integrations with Oracle, SAP, Savant, and Salesforce. The platform allows for the integration of other, more specific company systems as well.
Complex products
The storefronts can be used for a wide selection of products. Anything from custom merchandise to specific, complex items for boiler parts or trade show booths. The possibilities are endless.
Cost calculation
The platform provides analytics that calculate sales and the cost of goods. This allows the company to see an overview of their finances and adjust costs to save money overall.

The original requirement was to create a public-facing, multi-tenant website that enabled print and fulfillment jobs to be placed from a website branded for each customer. One of the product's key features is the ability to create a new store with a custom URL and branding in under 10 minutes".
