Green Apple can be an indispensable partner in designing and carrying out an online catalog and ordering solution. Since 1995 we have been providing Internet solutions to businesses. Let our experience work for you to deliver an effective, affordable, end-to-end catalog and ordering solution.

Our catalog and ordering solutions are based around Cargo, an application developed by Green Apple specifically to handle the requirements of online catalog management, presentation and ordering. Cargo features powerful categorization and searching capabilities; flexible data and presentation formats; multiple pricing tiers; individual and quantity discounting; account and order history; automated shipping and sales tax calculation; and an extensive set of management reports. The system is web-administered through an easy to use interface. Orders and RFQs generated online may be received via email or using the secure order processing facility, capable of order status transitioning, electronic payment, and balance keeping.

Different suppliers and distributors have different online catalog and ordering needs. Some may want to present the catalog only; others, to receive orders; still others require order and payment processing capability. To meet different classes of needs and budgets, our catalog and ordering solutions utilize Cargo in one of three configurations.

Maintenance
A product catalog necessarily requires additions, deletions, and updates. Green Apple provides you with the training and customer support necessary to manage your catalog -- including modifying part and price information, generating management reports, handling orders, and general account and catalog maintenance. An easy-to-use, browser-based administration interface, complete with bulk import/export facilities, gives you administrative control of your catalog from any computer connected to the Internet.

Customers are encouraged to make use of the available administrative features to manage their product catalogs. However, should you prefer to have Green Apple manage the catalog, in whole or part, on your behalf, we are happy to discuss this approach.
