CDC Software Corporation (NASDAQ: CDCS), a hybrid enterprise
software provider of on-premise and cloud deployments, announced
today the new version upgrades of CDC eCommerce, an on demand
eCommerce platform, that include a new solution supporting mobile
browsing and shopping, one of several upcoming deliverables that
will expand the breadth of its multichannel offerings.
Separately, CDC Software was one of four companies cited as
“Emerging Players to Watch” in The Forrester Wave™: B2C eCommerce
Platforms, Q4 2010” Forrester Research, Inc., October 21, 2010.
According to the report, “CDC Software acquired Truition in late
2009. By combining CDC cloud-based and app solutions for
ERP, order management, and warehouse management, the CDC solution
will be one to watch for midmarket and B2B clients looking to add
direct-to-consumer solutions. CDC’s global footprint may also lead
to eCommerce platform offerings well suited to global firms or
firms interested in China’s eCommerce operations.”
As part of the new CDC eCommerce platform upgrade announced
today, CDC eCommerce seamlessly supports popular smartphone
wireless devices with features including mobile site searching,
category browsing, device detection, redirect to mobile site and
mobile-optimized landing pages. The platform’s “Store Manager”
technology lets marketers and e-retailers manage the merchandising
and content of their mobile storefront separate from their
‘desktop’ storefront through the same administrative interface. New
features for CDC eCommerce also include: an enhanced user
interface, an enhanced campaign management interface where a user
can more easily manage complex marketing campaigns and
sub-campaigns, improved integration with UPS, and tighter
integration of product information for listings on Bidz.com, a
leading online auction marketplace in North America.
CDC eCommerce customer Sally Tansill, manager MLB.com, the
official site of Major League Baseball, is planning on upgrading to
the mobile commerce solution. “We’re eager to take advantage of
CDC’s new mobile commerce capabilities. Mobile is a key part of our
online multichannel strategy.”
“We are very pleased on continuing our track record of launching
major upgrades to CDC eCommerce and especially to be included as an
industry “emerging player to watch” in Forrester’s report on the
eCommerce platform marketplace,” said Gary Black, general manager
of CDC eCommerce product line business of CDC Software. “With our
new CDC eCommerce upgrade, we are delivering another channel to our
multichannel commerce strategy that includes innovative technology
directly addressing the call center, public marketplaces like eBay,
the web and now mobile communications – all tightly integrated and
centrally managed from a single interface with integrated inventory
and order processing. Since CDC eCommerce is a true multi-tenant
cloud-based solution, all CDC eCommerce customers also are
automatically and seamlessly upgraded to this new version.”
With CDC eCommerce’s new integration with the CDC Supply Chain
solution, CDC Software believes it is clearly at the forefront of
the enterprise market by offering solutions that combine eCommerce
sales origination with complete supply chain management - from
suppliers, purchase orders, warehouse and distribution center
management through to sophisticated order routing algorithms that
provide optimized-fulfillment logic for products sent to the end
consumer. CDC eCommerce is one of the only on demand eCommerce
platforms that supports such complete order handling. As a result
of these unique capabilities, CDC Software has been seeing solid
momentum in cross selling CDC eCommerce. For example, in the third
quarter of 2010, CDC Software had one of its largest cross sell
deals of CDC eCommerce to a leading retail customer using the CDC
Supply Chain solution.”
CDC eCommerce is unique as an on demand eCommerce platform with
integrated order management capabilities, online marketplace and
dynamic pricing support, full front-end and back-end capabilities
such as merchandising and promotions, inventory, anti-fraud and
returns management, community private-sale shops,
multi-language/currency, and an industry-leading “implementation
time.” The solution provides online retailers and manufacturers
with the ability to maximize customer acquisition, conversion, and
retention.
