Not just from our own development work, but by listening to our users – and to the feedback they get from their customers every year. With more than 180,000 shops built to date and around 1.2 billion customers visiting ShopFactory shops every year, our experience is virtually unmatched.
This experience can be your secret weapon on your way to e-Commerce success. Because we put everything we learn straight into ShopFactory. For your benefit.
There's more to e-Commerce than building a shop
One of the many things we have learned over the years is, that for shop owners selling online involves much more than creating an online shop. So of course ShopFactory is much more than point and click shopping cart software.
It is a complete e-Commerce software solution designed to address all the issues you will encounter when you begin to sell online. From shop building and maintenance to fraud protection and order management – and much, much more.
Put simply ShopFactory is e-commerce software designed to make e-Commerce easy for you – not just the creation of an online catalog.

Sophisticated Content Managament System (CMS)
At the heart of ShopFactory is a sophisticated database driven Content Management System. Unlike most available e-Commerce software solutions it lets you see what your website will look like, while you build it.
You can add pages or products with the click of a button or import them for faster shop building. Put products on hold, link from one page to another or link from one product to a related product. ShopFactory stays on top of it.
If you remove a product or put it on hold, the links to it disappear, too. This might not sound like much right now. But believe me – when you have a successful website, it just keeps on growing. And what seems a simple job now can quickly become a maintenance nightmare.
ShopFactory of course also maintains your website navigation, to ensure your customers will always find their way around.

Website builder and Design chameleon
ShopFactory is point and click easy to use. No programming skills are required to create great looking websites. You can do almost everything with a few mouse clicks.
But of course as shop developer or owner you may want to take things further by creating a unique look for your website.
ShopFactory's customization features are second to none. You won't believe how easy it is to customize the look of a website with your mouse; thanks to the ShopFactory Website themes, which can change their looks just like a chameleon. Even if you have no idea about website coding or programming!
After all - to be successful you will want to look your best in front of your customers.

Ideal for small to medium sized shops
ShopFactory is ideal for small to medium sized web shops with up to 10,000 products. The vast majority of our customers list between 10 to 1,000 products in their shops.
While we know of shop owners who successfully maintain websites with more than 30,000 products, ShopFactory has not really been designed with such large shops in mind.

No limit on customers
Did you know that most other e-Commerce solutions can only deal with a small number of customers in your shop at the same time?
This is caused by limitations of the serverside technology used by these solutions. As their shopping cart software is installed on the Internet Server, the shopping cart responds more slowly; every customer puts extra strain on your server. The more customers enter your shop, the slower these websites become - until your shop stops working.
ShopFactory is different. For the last ten years we have been using clientside technology similar to the technology now being made popular by Google. Designed to deal with virtually unlimited amounts of customers and to respond quickly to them.
We believe your shop should be able to deal with as many customers as you can attract - not work against you, when you are successful. |
