Tangentia unveils T-CLOUD, the best e-Commerce Cloud Solution for the Mid-Market

TORONTO - Oct. 1, 2015 - PRLog -- Toronto (Sep 28, 2015) – Tangentia today announces the general availability of T-Cloud™, Tangentia’s cloud-based e-Commerce offering designed especially for mid-market enterprises. As a premier IBM business partner, Tangentia worked closely with IBM’s software team to build T-Cloud based on IBM’s industry-leading WebSphere Commerce Enterprise solution.

“IBM WebSphere Commerce is the clear industry leader according to all major analyst reports,” says Vijay Thomas, Managing Partner of Tangentia. “Therefore it is no exaggeration to say that T-Cloud represents the best e-Commerce cloud offering for the mid-market.”

Thanks to a unique partnership between Tangentia and IBM, T-Cloud™ enables the full, rich feature set of WebSphere Commerce for all clients, hosting dedicated instances of the software in IBM’s Softlayer cloud centres around the world. Capabilities include:

·         Multiple sites with multiple business rule on a single instance

·         B2C, B2B, marketplace and other business models

·         Precise targeted marketing and analytics

·         Integration to Canada Post, Purolator, and multiple payment providers

·         ERP and other integration based on Tangentia Commerce Gateway™

“T-Cloud™ truly hits the sweet spot, merging enterprise-class software capability with a consumption-based delivery and pricing model that scales from the very small to the very large,” said Feite Kraay, Partner, Tangentia Commerce Solutions. “We are excited at the scope of this offering and the high level of customer interest already.”

Tangentia executives say that customer demand for T-Cloud™ is growing quickly and is expected to grow even faster over the next six months. In addition to two Canadian-based merchants in the sporting goods and fitness sector, beta customers include a national golf product manufacturer planning to use T-Cloud to streamline their order-entry, fulfilment, and warehouse operations and a houseware and furnishing distributor in British Columbia who will use T-Cloud™ for the multi-site capability including dedicated B2B and B2C sites. The President and CEO said, “With T-Cloud we only have to populate our catalog once and we can run multiple B2B and B2C sites out of that same catalog. This not just makes it much easier but we will actually have significant cost savings. The icing on the cake was the fact that we will use the same e-Commerce software that runs Target.com, Sears.com and many of the leading e-Commerce sites in the world and costs us less than what it cost to run lower end hosted e-Commerce solutions."
