An eCommerce solution that can grow with your company
‘Off-the-shelf’ ecommerce systems are great, but sometimes they just don’t suit the way that you want to run your online shop and you have to adapt the way you work and the way you structure your product catalogue to fit the system. And more often than not, an ‘off-the-shelf’ solution contains loads of features that you’re never going to need, especially when you’re first starting out.
At Rapid Web Services we think that your ecommerce solution should be flexible enough to let you structure your catalogue in the best way to suit you and your products. And why pay for extra features that you’re not using and that are just bloating your site and causing slow down?
We developed Rapid Cart with this in mind. The core feature set includes all the functionality that you need to get your online shop up and running. Then, as and when you need them, we can add packages to the system for you.
