What I find unique working with Ephlux is the intense focus, concern and care they put in understanding the intricacies of our business; sometimes their consultants tend to explore more about our business than we ourselves do!
Ephlux E-Commerce Solutions - Bringing your Business Online
With the dotcom burst as a lesson learnt, and now with a gradual but solid build-up of the economical and consumer-behavioral pre-requisites for a successful e-commerce economy, companies today are using e-commerce as one of the most powerful, flexible and efficient marketing and sales methods that mankind has ever seen…
Given this strong appeal, thousands of millions of companies have jumped into the bandwagon in anticipation, to replicate and apply success models to their own businesses. However, the unbelievingly attractive returns on investment in e-commerce have allured today’s businesses to invest into e-commerce mostly in an unplanned manner - without a road-map, marketing and support processes and systems in place…
Realizing this ad-hoc and mass-scale interest of companies to establish their e-commerce assets, the E-commerce solution providers have flocked into this air pocket with solutions of all kinds to capture this ad-hoc market… resulting in successes as well as bashing failures, due to low-quality, off the cuff, ‘cost>quality’ delivery models.
To further aggravate the situation, overall e-commerce planning and execution is distributed across different geographies with marketing (both online and offline) being either done onshore or outsourced to multiple vendors and affiliates, while development is usually off-shored to low-cost countries (South Asia, etc.). This has created communication gaps and lack of efficient coordination required for business viability and success.
Ephlux, over the years has implemented various e-commerce strategies, infrastructures, best-shore delivery models, technology deployments and marketing stratagem. Ephlux understands that there is a definite set of business patterns, business tools, marketing programs and support systems, which if executed coherently and in a timely manner, can multiply chances of success manifold.
Utilizing this experience, based on a vision to provide a coherent and wholesome solution for e-commerce needs, Ephlux provides exhaustive, tailor madee-commerce solutions to its customers, based on Microsoft, J2EE and LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP) open-source technologies.
