While 75 million people, or one-third of the total Internet population, buy goods online each quarter, according to a study from comScore, another 80% of online shoppers have placed items in shopping carts then left the sites without buying. Concerned eTailers are addressing these lost opportunities with fast, feature-rich, scalable and customizable shopping cart funnels that make online checkout more convenient for shoppers, and thus more productive for e-businesses.
Targeting large eTailers intent on minimizing cart abandonment and growing digital purchase rates, X-Cart, a PCI-compliant shopping cart platform, has expanded to include a turnkey enterprise solution requiring no programming knowledge to create and run a sophisticated online store. The new X-cart Enterprise starter package, available from Qualiteam, includes a dedicated in-house X-Cart team, including a developer, project manager, UI designer, QA specialist, and training and technical support. The solution also features premium hosting; multiple licenses with training; store customization with designs; enhanced Facebook integration; as-you-type, instant search suggestions, and other features targeting large retailers’ shopping cart needs.
The new features are built on existing X-cart offerings, such as the ability to work with and have separate back-end access for multiple vendors, and multiple vendor-defined shipping and tax options. X-Cart Enterprise also includes social site logins; the ability to show prices in multiple currencies; banners that flag current or upcoming sales; expanded customer reviews; installation service; and one year of customer support.

Qualiteam, a Cyprus-based software development company, also announced that the host of X-cart features, previously available as modules only, now are pre-packaged and offered in service levels, with new X-Cart Enterprise the most feature-rich.
Introduced in 2001, the template-based, open source X-Cart platform currently is used in 110 countries by more than 25,000 e-Commerce businesses.
