LinkCommerce is an integrated e-commerce platform that is designed for rapid deployment and complete customization. This gives you the advantage of being able to use off the shelf features where they fit and changing features to fit your business where they don’t. This also means that Link can change as your needs change without having to start over. LinkCommerce is developed and maintained exclusively by AVATAR.
Let's get started.
Industrial-strength e-commerce
Successful e-commerce is all about connectivity–between your customers, your products, and your platform. And AVATAR has the most comprehensive tools available to bring them all together.
LinkCommerce is a flexible e-commerce platform that can evolve and scale as your business’ needs, market, and opportunities do.
Connected
LinkCommerce is capable of integrating with online catalogs, external sites, mobile apps, or product configurators. When connected to your catalog, integrated with LinkPIM, or completely stand-alone, LinkCommerce is centralized enterprise e-commerce.
Customer-driven
Give your customers what they need – B2B functionality with a B2C experience. Using customizable pricing, shipping, account, and transactions services, LinkCommerce will support your customers every step.
Flexible
As a stand-alone platform, using EDI, or integrated directly into your ERP system, LinkCommerce can grow as your e-commerce initiatives grow. Start stand-alone and integrate with other systems down the road without having to start over.
E-commerce needs can vary based on your offering, market, and a number of other factors. But we've built successful platforms for a diverse group of businesses, large and small. Take a look for yourself:
