The US-subsidiary of VIA NET.WORKS Inc., has launched its new eCommerce Solution on schedule on November 1st, 2004 in Atlanta. PGK Software & Communication GmbH has developed the system on the basis of it's .NET-Content Management System QualiSite and .NET. It allows fully automtic sales of Windows Shared Hosting through the Internet.

Integral part of the new solution is a shopping basket for the individual configuration and selection of the desired hosting products. The chosen webspace can be increased for example or additional services as SharePoint Hosting can be booked with the package. Even the desired domain names can be checked online and added to the basket.

It was the declared objective of this project to fully automate all processes. The credit card of the customer for example is being collected in real-time. At the same time the transaction is being booked in the centralized invoicing system of VIA and a PDF-invoice will be generated. Recurring collections will be processed later on in the same way.

Directly after an order has been placed the hosting accounts will be created according to the individual configuration of the customer. Domains are registered at this occasion as well. The customer can take access to his account just a few minutes after ordering - even on weekends, of course!

VIA NET.WORKS is enthusiastic about this integrated solution made by PGK GmbH. "Congratulations! Thanks again for this excellent result which even met the deadline!", says Fred Seibl, Vice President VIA Express. Comments from other colleagues at VIA which are involved in this project: "This is really exciting!!!!", "It's amazing what has been accomplished in the given timeframes! Excellent experience and ordering process!!!!", "There are no words that can express just how much you guys have achieved in such a short time frame." or "WOW!!!!!!! You just know how to keep amazing me!".

The succesful launch in the US however was just the beginning. The European subsidiaries of VIA are already on the way to launch the eCommerce Solution gradually in their own countries.
