zen cart and kayako integration

admin — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 20:46:11 +0000

One of the most important section on a zen cart based e-commerce website is the support system. Zen cart in itself does not have a very good support management system. While the team at Zen cart works on such a solution, it makes sense to explore other cost effective options.

One of the most popular support/help desk systems on the web is Kayako. Kayako has both esupport and supportsuite products that can handle tickets, online live chat and bunch of other features.

We can help you with the integration of zen cart with the kayako support suite or kayako esupport system. This way your members can seamlessly login into both the systems using the same login and password. Whats more, your support agents can see client’s zen cart profile and order details inside their kayako staff support panel. This not only saves their time on searching for the client records in zen cart database but also increases efficiency and reduces errors in handling support issues.

It also gives a more unified experience to your customers when it comes to the services that you offer. Research has shown that refund rate significantly reduces with increased efficiency in handling support tickets. Hence this is one area that no e-commerce store operator can look to ignore.

Google Analytics integration with zen cart

admin — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 11:31:18 +0000

Google Analytics is a power site analysis tool that can provide lot of insight into the traffic behaviour and pattern. It allows site owners to see the source of traffic (search engines, referral websites, direct). It also gives the keywords that users are searching on search engines to reach the website. Map overlays give graphical reports about what parts of the sites are being clicked frequently. Details about visitors, their Internet speed, browser resolution, browser type, geographical area etc is also shared. This data can help webmasters optimize their websites for most popular browsers and screen resolutions.

Zen cart based e-commerce websites are no different in this respect. However Google Analytics can help a zen cart based e-commerce website more. Google Analytics allows you to track ROI (Return On Investment) if you are doing PPC (Pay Per Click) campaigns using Google Adwords. It also allows you to see what geographical area your traffic is coming from. That way you can target better products on your website.

It is important that admin and staff members’ access is not recorded in Google Analytics data. Hence we can develop a special mod for zen cart based e-commerce website that will easily allow you to include Analytics code on your web store. At the same time it will make sure that traffic data generated by your staff members and admins are not sent to google.

Zen cart recommended or related products mod

admin — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 11:37:39 +0000

It is always important to enhance the user/visitor experience coming to your zen cart e-commerce store. This not only increases the brand value of your website and company but also has a positive impact on your sales and conversion ratio.

One of the best way of increasing or enhancing visitor experience is to recommend them products based on their spending pattern or order history. However an even better way is to recommend them products and services that are complimentary to what they are planning to order from your website. This concept is also called as cross selling.

Zen cart e-commerce stores can be hacked to allow recommended or related product sale. Lets say you sell a particular digital camera brand on your electronic web store. Now you know that a camera pouch that fits this camera is very popular amongst the people. So you can mark this camera pouch as related to the camera. This allows zen cart store to show this as a recommended product when anyone adds the camera to their shopping cart. What’s more, you can also attach some kind of discount to the entire order if the customer buys your recommended product. This cross selling increases your average order value and also create value for your customers. Win-win situation.

Zen cart and vbulletin integration

admin — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 14:15:53 +0000

Many zen cart based e-commerce website owners want to start a forum based on vbulletin software. For those who do not know vbulletin is one of the most popular forum system available in the industry. Its open source.

The problem with starting a forum on an e-commerce website is that your members have to register twice, once at the zen cart store and the other time at your forum. This is not only annoying but can be one of the biggest reasons why your forums will not be very popular.

Forums can provide lot of community based support and can reduce the number of support tickets that are sent for common questions. Vbulletin based forums can also help you in forum based marketing where lot of potential clients can read and ask questions before taking a decision to buy products or services from your zen cart based e-commerce website.

In order to make the customer experience better, its best to have some kind of integration between zen cart and vbulletin.

We can help you do a member registration integration between zen cart and vbulletin. That means if a member registers at Zen cart (they buy something), they automatically get registered with vBulletin based forum and vice-versa. Not only that, we can do a login integration as well. This means that if your members login into their zen cart member area, they get automatically logged into the vbulletin forum. We can also configure the forum such that some special area within the forum is only accessible to registered members. This area can be used to provide “member only” support.

This not only enhances customer experience but also makes your website look more professional. We can also help you integrate your zen cart design into your vbulletin based forum.

Upgrade your zen cart to latest version

admin — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 17:35:49 +0000

Zen cart is a very powerful open source e-commerce system which is available for free. However it is important to upgrade your zen cart store to the lastest version. This is because many security vulnerabilities are discovered in the code. Also lot of new improvements and features get added to zen cart all the time.

Hold on, Did I just say vulnerabilities? Does that mean Zen cart is insecure? No – zen cart is not insecure. At the same time is not 100% secure. One must realize that 99% of the time, its problems with the environment in which zen cart is hosted. The server and its settings. Whenever such security vulnerabilities are reported or found out, Zen cart and the open source community releases patches in matter of hours.

It is important that you regularly update your zen cart website. Old versions of zen cart are prone to attacks as most of these vulnerabilities are openly published all over the Internet. Also it makes sense to upgrade to the latest version of zen cart to keep up with the new features.

If you have a zen cart store that you wish to get upgraded to the latest version, feel free to contact us today or email us at quotes @ zencartonline.com

Zen cart members only mod

admin — Tue, 20 Nov 2007 16:42:11 +0000

Do you want to customize your zen cart store to force all customers to login before they can see ANY products. Once logged in, the products a customer sees will be based on their account level. Such a customization allows you to showcase special product to your premium clients or offer the same product for different prices to different customers.

zen cart express checkout

admin — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 16:24:34 +0000

A lot of customers give up on ordering when they see they have to register on the website to get their orders processed. Zen cart by default makes it compulsory for the visitors/clients to register and login on the website before they can get their orders processed.

However, it is always a good option to provide your customers with an express checkout option. With the zen cart express checkout option, your clients can choose whether they wish to create an account with your website. If they choose not to, they can still proceed with checkout and complete their orders. Our zencart express checkout system makes sure that such orders are registered in the database and no client information is lost. It also keeps the forms to minimum, making sure that most of the orders go through and people are not turned away because of the amount of information that needs to be filled in.
