The machine has started! You already know this as I wrote about it in the article: ECAT Manager 3.0 in the production version is now operational. #012. Manager 3 is a real powerhouse that requires special attention and care, as it is the foundation of our entire ecosystem. We will gradually connect more elements, blocks, and systems, which will undoubtedly enrich our entire e-commerce infrastructure. The future seems promising as technological development and the implementation of new features continue. Here are the latest updates from ECAT eCommerce.
The introduction of the new version of ECAT Manager software is just the beginning of what we have planned as part of the expansion of the e-commerce ecosystem. This year promises to be a period of significant changes aimed not only at improving the shopping process but also at building solid foundations for expanding our business not only in Poland but also abroad, which we are already doing.
In the article below, we will take a closer look at the challenges ahead, the changes we plan to make already in March this year, and there are quite a few of them. We want to build solid foundations as quickly as possible so that we can jointly make money using the internet and the technology we have at our disposal.
Aderlo Marketplace, a project on the scale of a big success.
What is Aderlo Marketplace?
Aderlo Marketplace is an innovative online store that will offer a wide range of products to customers around the world. Our team is working tirelessly to create a unique shopping experience for our customers, combining convenience, quality, and affordability.
Key information about Aderlo Marketplace.
Aderlo will stand out with advanced features and the latest technology. Currently, we are at the stage where the foundation has been built, and the platform is essentially ready for publication and debut. On Friday, load tests were carried out, which the previous version failed due to the lack of support and performance technologies from the ECAT Manager 2.0.
Aderlo currently has over 30% of the Magento code rewritten to adapt the world’s most popular platform to operate as an internal Marketplace without sacrificing the excellent aspects of positioning that the Magento engine possesses.
After the tests, we introduce corrections.
Grzegorz Ciupek in his statement on social media informs us that – “After the performed tests, there are a few corrections left, with which IT needs to deal this week, and unfortunately, the plan of last week’s debut had to be slightly delayed. We hope that this week we will be able to finish the corrections and after re-testing, we will finally be able to release Aderlo Marketplace.”
We are convinced and excited because we know, in fact, we are certain that the Aderlo Marketplace will win the hearts of millions of users worldwide and this place will become a liked and friendly shopping site for everyone.
Rural Market Marketplace is getting closer.
What is Rural Market Marketplace?
The combination of Holding Wieś Plus and ECAT E-commerce companies has given impetus to the creation of an advanced and automated online trading platform based on the latest technologies. This initiative aims to provide ideal conditions for rural and urban communities that want to buy and sell products online.
The ecosystem being created will respond to the needs of the entire society living in rural and urban areas. The trading platform will provide easy access to products and services, allowing local farmers, artisans, small businesses, and consumers to take advantage of online selling and buying opportunities.
When will Rural Market Marketplace launch?
We have already talked and written about this earlier, but as a reminder, we inform you again that after the debut of Aderlo, Rural Market Marketplace will launch within two to three weeks, in which we also have everything prepared from the technology side.
Cashback Coin of the ECAT eCommerce ecosystem.
We have implemented many advanced tools, including the Aderlo Cashback Coin loyalty program, which will operate on our Aderlo Marketplace, in Rural Market Marketplace, and in our operators’ stores. This is a unique Aderlo Cashback Coin, as it will work as Cashback for customers throughout our ECAT eCommerce ecosystem. We will keep you informed about the progress of such implementations in our system.
Manager 3.0 in its third version is the foundation of our business.
The foundation of our e-commerce business, as everyone knows, is the ECAT Manager platform in its third version. It is the base for implementing further solutions in our ecosystem. The platform’s start was associated with big and challenging decisions that had to be made. Among other things, related to the complete withdrawal of the platform we previously operated on, namely Manager 2.0.
The transition from M2 to the latest software required certain actions, such as withdrawing over 6 million auctions in one day, which were turned off on Allegro. The API Development department from Allegro wrote to us asking if we needed help transitioning to the new system.
The implementation of the new system had to meet key elements such as:
Technology fully suitable for optimization and scaling (Frontend: Vue.js, Backend: Java + Golang)
Ensuring security from data leaks and attacks.
Provided modularity and implementing further solutions without interfering with the existing ones.
Complete specification and documentation
Order analysis in M3.
We pay very close attention to the analysis of each order. Through the new system, 663 orders have already been placed (as of March 4, 2024), and it is still the start-up phase, and we are continuously implementing new improvements.
Just last week, we implemented the most advanced tool for quickly adding auctions on Allegro in the Czech and Slovak markets with just two additional clicks. Total automation is a revolution. Users appreciate our solution due to its simplicity.
No need for setting conditions for returns, warranties, complaints, or pricing. Everything happens fully automatically when connecting an Allegro account and shipping the first products to the platform.
Of course, all these implemented features require certain corrections, which is due to the fact that cooperation with Allegro requires really great focus and precision. After all, the point is not to give away all the profit earned along the way, but to keep it in the operators’ pockets.
llegro is just one of the sales channels
The Allegro Marketplace is not an easy partner for business in the dropshipping system. Various challenges keep arising that need to be addressed. However, pay attention to an important thing. Allegro is just one of the additional sales channels. Our main goal is online stores and attracting sellers focused on building their own brand.
Marketplaces are only an additional channel for selling products available in our flagship now production Manager 3.0. We are continuously expanding the product offer so that you have a wider choice. However, this requires time and many additional implementations.
Safe Shopping Zones in a new edition
Aderlo Maetaverse is coming.
The proper selection of technology will ensure that the Aderlo Maetaverse can compete with global giants providing Metaverse platforms. We use Unreal Engine as the Frontend, it has the task of displaying only what must be displayed, but thanks to it, we can completely reflect reality.
For the Backend, we crossed Java (we have edited JDK for our own needs, safer and faster based on “Coretto” from Amazon), Python, and Golang.
Plans for March in building our ecosystem
March is the month in which we will greatly surprise everyone who is with us. Thank you for being with us and helping us create something special, currently unparalleled in the market. Without your support, creating such an e-commerce marketing combine would not have been possible. In the coming days, we are preparing:
Launching Aderlo Marketplace
Launching Rural Market Marketplace
Starting the reporting system.
Releasing the new version of Safe Shopping Zones.
Launching Aderlo Cashback Coin.
Signing a cooperation agreemen.
Stock market debut of Aderlo Cashback Coin.
Summary of the article: Business newsletter. Technological development and the implementation of new features.
The new year 2024 started very dynamically, we introduced huge changes. The most important change is the transition from Manager 2.0 to the third version of Manager in production version and the creation of a beta version to test new functions before implementing them in the production version.
The difficult decision for us was to close the old software, as it required closing over 6 million auctions on Allegro within a day, which means they need to be relisted, but now from the operational manager 3.0. The whole process did not go without hitches. Fortunately, everything is moving forward, and we are consistently implementing our plans despite the time delay.
We realize that this is a very difficult time for many of you. Unfortunately, these changes are necessary and even compulsory if we want to build our joint business based on solid foundations. This difficult time is behind us; now we are polishing our software to work as well as possible and to be efficient for everyone.
What we have done would not have been possible without your support and involvement. Thank you for all your comments, suggestions, catching bugs. If it were not for your support and belief in our joint venture, there would not be us, and you would not have this wonderful tool for internet business in e-commerce sales.
Together we are shaping the future of e-commerce.
