Web Sales/ website set up

No, but there are several third party solutions available. search this newsgroup via google groups and you should find some very detailed discussions about this from 6 months to a year ago. There are basically two main players offering a complete solution; NitroSell and Kosmos Cart. NitroSell is a 100% hosted solution using their own integration to RMS. Kosmos can do hosting and design, but their cart is based on a fairly popular LAMP solution (either xCart or osCommerce I believe), so you can host it anywhere if you want to. Kosmos uses an integrator for RMS from New West Technologies. New West is sort of a third player in this as their Web Integrator can be used to connect pretty much ANY SQL based ecommerce solution to RMS - this may require special development work on the ecommerce side.

I prefer NitroSell, but that's not a knock on any of the other products; I've never worked with Kosmos, but they have clearly done a lot of work to play in the RMS market. NitroSell can put a RMS integrated shopping cart up really fast and I prefer their processing & fulfillment (that's taking orders and processing them with RMS) to the others I have seen; but that is really a personal preference thing. NitroSell can get a little pricey depending on how much you sell through your online store, but you get what you pay for...

Hi Mark, the comments are almost correct about our Kosmos RMS eCommerce Solution. There are 4 components (RMS+Newest Web Integrator

+Kosmos Web Service+Shopping Cart (or X-cart)), Our software package includes implementation so you don't have to deal with another provider trying to get the solution running. With implementation also comes training, we'll make sure all components are talking to each other successfully and you fully understand how to manage your products. Kosmos will support the whole solution and if for some reason a bug is found with a new release of the Web Integrator by Newestech, Kosmos will project manage the fix so you don't have to. Our solution will allow you to host on your own servers, but we recommend implementing the solution on our servers for the first couple of months to make sure your 100% satisfied before you transfer your files over to your own dedicated server.

Our solution also will work right out of the box when installed and there is no custom development needed. Since X-cart provides access to all of the code you can customize any feature you like and add
