| PRODUCT INFORMATION - SPNet
e-commerce |
SPNet is an e-commerce module designed for companies wanting to
promote and sell their products and services over the Internet.
SPNet creates a dynamic web site that can easily be tailored for
a range of business scenarios. It allows organisations to define
how they trade and interact with both their existing customers and
the potential global markets now available via the Internet. At
the same time its unique flexible design allows the system to be
configured for the specific needs of each organisation.
