OREM, Utah, Oct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- ShopSite, Inc., a leading provider of
e-commerce shopping cart and catalog software for small to medium-sized
businesses, announced the release of its new ShopSite version 10. ShopSite(R)
is an industry leading e-commerce software option for web hosting providers,
for new or existing Internet merchants, and for Web designers.
"We are excited that ShopSite has achieved the status of a Certified
Integration Partner, having recently completed an integration with Doba's
product sourcing API," said Blaine Nielsen, CEO of Doba. "Their integration
gives ShopSite merchants the ability to choose from over 1,000,000 wholesale
products that can be simply added to their website with a click of a button
and also automates the ordering and drop ship fulfillment process."
"New features such as the Doba integration and the HTML Editor are
available in all ShopSite product levels - Starter, Manager, and Pro," said
CEO David Hills. "Additionally some features previously available only in the
top of the line Pro level are now available in Manager. Manager merchants can
now enjoy features such as Google Analytics, Custom Page and Product Fields,
and Page Sort."
New Features
HTML Editor (Pro, Manager, Starter)
Many text fields can now be edited using a word processor-like HTML
Editor. Toolbar buttons allow merchants to quickly add layout and style
elements, and view the results as they edit the text.
Doba drop shipping (Pro, Manager, Starter)
ShopSite has integrated support for Doba drop shipping service. Doba has
over 1,000,000 products that ShopSite merchants can sell without having to
physically handle a single product. ShopSite can automatically import product
information from Doba and post it to the merchant's store for ordering by
shoppers. Order information is directly sent to Doba for fulfillment.
Value Added Tax (VAT/GST) (Pro, Manager, Starter)
Merchants in the European Union, Canada, and other countries can now use
an integrated VAT/GST calculator. ShopSite can be configured to automatically
calculate value added tax based off the merchant's country and the customer's
country and postal code.
Remote Orders Database (Pro, Manager, Starter)
Merchants who store sensitive customer information, such as credit card
numbers, can configure ShopSite to store the order information in a remote
database. Storing sensitive information on a remote server in an internal
network zone is a PCI requirement.
Inventory API (Pro)
A new API has been added for developers of third-party inventory control
applications. The API allows merchants to use an add-on application to track
and manage product inventory in ShopSite.
Multiple Shipping Carriers (Pro, Manager)
ShopSite now allows merchants to display shipping rates from multiple
carriers in the shopping cart. Merchants can subscribe for UPS, FedEx, and
USPS real-time shipping quotes, then display quotes from each of the services
for the customer to select from.
ShopSite is sold by hundreds of reseller partners, including hosting
companies such as NTT/Verio, IPOWER, PowWeb, FatCow, LexiConn, pair Networks,
YourHost.com, and Globat. The thousands of merchant Web sites using ShopSite
include the Getty Trust Foundation, Hometime, Avia, Maidenform UK and many
others.
