The Challenge
The client is a specialist manufacturer of best quality Window Blinds in UK. The client was looking for website which represents their product and business online; also he should be able to spread the business to various regions. The client wanted an appealing website compared to his competitors in market. He wanted to sell his blinds online while
maintaining a greater look and feel. The challenge was to develop software to maintain the inventory, manage orders, shipping management, tax management and that too inline with the complex front end website design. The client didn´t have a decent budget to suit his high end requirements.
The Solution
We took the challenge. Our creative designing team did analysis and prepared few mockups for design of the website. After much alteration and change requests the client confirmed the website layout. For back end management we suggested using open source ecommerce solution "osCommerce" to control the budget and suffice the need. Our technical team integrated front end with osCommerce backend and customized many features and also added some features as per client´s requirements. The admin panel is enabled to support unlimited products and categories, add/update manufacturers, manage customers and reviews, manage online payments, Print invoices and packaging slip from the order screen.
The system has reports for Products and Customer statistics. A simple newsletter management system under the admin panel enables the webmaster to stay connected with his target visitors. Front End functionality includes Customer to browse through all categories of window blinds and purchase, Send link to friend, Fast and friendly search products and advanced search features for products. Online payment by credit card is accepted for shopping. Overall our design of website and customization / integration of osCommerce meet client expectations.
