Our packages include everything you need to run a successful online store: choice of the best e-commerce systems available, premium Rackspace hosting, 24/7 pro-active store performance monitoring, continuous data protection, global DNS service, PCI certification as well as available design integration, functionality customization and data management services.

Managed E-commerce System

Instead of creating a completely new system from scratch for every project, we use the best commercial applications available as the base and customize them according to the project specifications. This allows us to cut the cost of your initial investment in half, and in many cases even less.

At the present time, there are four leading e-commerce platforms which provide you with full access to the codes, templates and database and ensure your complete ownership of the code and data. Full control over design and functionality allows you to have the system tailored to your business. Each system has its own pros and cons, but each can be customized to fit your business practices. To help you determine which system is best for you, refer to the comparison table below.
