Interspire sets July 1 2012 as its deadline for ending its service on Interspire shopping cart

 

Interspire having established in the year 2003, caters e-commerce and e-mail marketing software to around 40,000 companies worldwide. They have recently announced that they will discontinue their support on the Interspire shopping cart from the July 1st of 2012.

As you may know if you’ve been following along, our focus lately has been on BigCommerce, which is our SaaS e-commerce offering. BigCommerce has been growing extremely fast since it was launched in 2009 and it’s now very close to reaching 25,000 clients.

When we launched Interspire back in 2003, SaaS was still a new concept and our focus, much like everyone else’s was on perpetually licensed (or “behind the firewall”, as it’s now called) software. Since then, times have of course changed and now most software is delivered on-demand.

As a result, today we’re announcing that on July 1st 2012 we will be discontinuing the following products:

 

  • Interspire Shopping Cart
  • Interspire Knowledge Manager
  • Interspire Website Publisher

 

 

This means that up until July 1st you will still be able to purchase licenses of these products, however on July 1st we will no longer be selling new licenses, upgrades or extra maintenance.

<span “>All existing clients will continue to receive support until their maintenance period expires, however after July 1st there won’t be an option to extend or renew any maintenance period.

If you are an Interspire Shopping Cart customer and would like to switch to BigCommerce, then please go here to learn more. We have partners dedicated to assisting with the migration process and you can look forward to dozens of new features which are part of BigCommerce.

Thank you for supporting the Interspire products over the years and we hope they’ve helped you grow your business and revenues. Our focus moving forwards is on BigCommerce and really empowering business owners to take advantage of our SaaS e-commerce offering to grow their business

MercuryMinds takes pride for playing a vital role in launching “LifeStyleBlinds”!

| Written by in Projects

The LifeStyleBlinds as the name indicates sells online stylish blinds and cherishes the two main advantages, “Quality of products at Reasonable cost” that any online shopper would ponder for while trying to buy online. The main motive of LifeStyleBlinds to approach MercuryMinds was to provide them a new x-cart design and to integrate it to their eshop with the implementation of x-cart modules that would on the whole provide easy usability of their webstore.

MercuryMinds provided them the best solution by integrating the new design to the x-cart shopping cart version 4.3.2 Gold. The development work of ours includes the implementation of our x-cart modules “Smasher and One Page Checkout“. MercuryMinds also worked on to group their collections into various categories segregated depending upon the price and also worked on the automated calculation of the discount amounts for each and every purchase of the customers made within this estore.
