| Promotopia Launches OSCommerce-based Retail Website |
|
Promotopia, a leading manufacturer and importer of unique retail products since 1996, announces the launch of www.islice.com. Based on the popular open source OSCommerce platform, the website will offer the iSlice and Envelopener products to the public while seamlessly integrating with existing fulfillment and marketing systems at Promotopia.
Using a customized version of OSCommerce, Sagewing adapted the interface to match the print and television marketing campaigns while maintaining usability and SEO functionality. Through a combination of existing contributions and custom development, the checkout and shipping systems were modified to best support Promotopia's unique product line and consumer habits. "With the level of back-end customization needed to support this product, OSCommerce was a natural choice due to the availability of 3rd party contributions and the flexibility of the codebase." Sagewing's offshore development teams substantial experience with OSCommerce, and we are very pleased to add www.islice.com to our list of e-commerce success stories. Comments (0)

By leveraging Sagewing's offshore development teams and domestic project managers, Promotopia was able to outsource the end-to-end development of the store, including design and back-end integration, to single source. "Sagewing delivered a quality product at a great price, and they provided the project management and client service we needed.", said TJ Scimone of Promotopia, "and they worked hard to meet our aggressive marketing deadlines."
