Netfire B2B / B2C e-Commerce

THE 'HOLY GRAIL' OF ECOMMERCE

It has been over ten years since Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) has been widely accepted as the standard for supply chains to interact electronically; yet 90 percent of SMEs do not trade online. In the USA less than 50% of SMEs have a website.

This is a significant problem for Large Enterprises and Governments, considering that world-wide business-to- business commerce is worth about $8 trillion a year, but only 15% of this is done online. Solutions that are available today are just not being used by SMEs because they are too expensive or too difficult to use.

THE NETFIRE E-COMMERCE SOLUTION

1. Ecommerce Enablement for SMEs
NETFIRE enables all businesses to engage in ecommerce directly with other businesses regardless of their size, IT system or technical resources. This is partly because it provides a direct link between the buyer and the seller thereby eliminating the need for ecommerce websites and intermediaries such as industry based e-marketplaces. This direct link enables buyers to view and compare products listed in the inventories of different sellers IN REAL TIME -without the need to switch from one website to another to make comparisons.

2. Enhanced Search Enablement
NETFIRE's innovative technology enables information to be searched and obtained directly from electronic files, not just from websites. This enables products and services to be found by businesses and consumers searching the internet even if the seller does not have the desired item listed on its website, or indeed, does not have a website at all. It also means that buyers always have access to up-to-date product information (e.g. price, availability), which is rarely so when searching websites or using comparison shopping services.
