Lymphedema Products approached our team to build their website and ecommerce system using Shopsite technology, as well as assist with day-to-day management, upgrades, integration with ERP systems, and reporting.
Challenges:
1. Building a comprehensive ecommerce platform: Lymphedema Products required a robust and user-friendly ecommerce system to facilitate online sales of their medical supplies. The platform needed to handle a wide range of products, provide secure payment processing, and offer a seamless shopping experience for customers.
2. Integration with ERP systems: To streamline operations and ensure efficient inventory management, Lymphedema Products needed integration with their existing ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. This integration would enable real-time synchronization of inventory levels, order processing, and customer information.
3. Reporting and analytics: The client sought a solution that could generate detailed reports and provide insights into sales, inventory, customer behavior, and other key metrics. These reports would help the company make data-driven decisions, identify trends, and optimize their operations.

The ecommerce system was integrated with secure payment gateways to ensure a safe and seamless checkout process.
2. ERP integration: We collaborated with the client’s ERP provider to establish a seamless integration between the ecommerce platform and the ERP system. This integration enabled automatic synchronization of product information, inventory levels, order processing, and customer data. It eliminated manual data entry, reducing errors and enhancing operational efficiency.
3. Reporting and analytics: We implemented robust reporting and analytics tools within the ecommerce system. These tools generated comprehensive reports on sales, inventory, customer behavior, and other relevant metrics. The reports were customizable and accessible through a user-friendly dashboard, empowering Lymphedema Products to gain insights, track performance, and make informed business decisions.
