What makes our off the shelf ecommerce solutions so good?

At UK ecommerce we use some externally developed off the shelf applications but the majority of our applications are XML, XSL, mySQL & PHP solutions developed in house by our development team, through progressive addition functionality, the advantage of progressive development is we can work with our clients and to some degree tailor our off the shelf solution to the client's requirements at little or no extra cost. This method of working has allowed us to develop content management solutions tailored to specific commercial sectors like car dealership, estate agents, & travel agents, and the development of Client Relationship Management Applications and Project / Job Management Applications. We are always happy to create new process/commercial management systems to suit new business sectors, and we keep the costs down by basing it on the pre-existing solution programming. Call us and we can discuss your solution and prices.
