Features
Custom Integration
Znode Storefront includes an integration library that you can extend to integrate with any 3rd party system or service including
payment gateways, ERP systems, shipping rate services, etc. This makes Znode Storefront 100% extensible and hence can be customized to meet
any business integration requirement.
Znode Storefront Advanced and Agency editions include web services that allow 3rd party applications to download and upload data. You can
extend these web services to integrate Znode Storefront with back-office systems including ERP, Accounting and Content Management Systems.
CSV Data Download
Znode Storefront enables you to download customer and order data in CSV format through the storefront admin. These files can then be uploaded
into any system that supports CSV uploads (most accounting & ERP systems support CSV imports)
Znode Storefront Agency edition includes a desktop utility that allows bulk upload and download of inventory, pricing and order data which is
essential for large storefronts with thousands of products.
FedEx® Rate Service
Znode Storefront is a FedEx® compatible solution. Znode is integrated with the FedEx® rate service to retrieve real-time rates based on
product dimensions, weight and shipping location. You can also create FedEx meter numbers and account credentials directly from the Znode
Storefront administration tool.
Payment Gateway Integration
Znode Storefront is integrated with most major payment gateways including Authorize.Net, Verisign, PayPal, Paymentech, PSI Gate and Nova.
You can also extend Znode to integrate with your own custom payment gateway by overriding the included payment integration classes.
QuickBooks
Currently Znode Storefront supports QuickBooks integration through data downloaded in CSV format for import into QuickBooks. Full native support
for QuickBooks is planned to be released in early 2008.
