ecBuilder Pro, Awarded Four Stars by PC/Computing
Leading Industry Publication Says, 'ecBuilder Gives You the Power of Detail.'
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 28 /CNW/ -- Multiactive Software
Inc. (Canadian Dealing Network: MSWI) announced that ecBuilder Pro(TM), its e-
commerce development solution for small business, was awarded a four-star
rating by PC/Computing Magazine (July 1999). This was the highest score
designated in a roundup of competitive products. PC/Computing, a Ziff Davis
publication, is one of the leading computer magazines in North America and is
known for its in-depth product reviews. The four-star rating is one of the
highest accolades that a product can receive from this journal.
ecBuilder Pro lets you create and manage an enhanced commerce-capable Web
site directly from your PC -- without any technical or design skills. Using
wizard-driven screens to customize colors and backgrounds, ecBuilder Pro lets
you add up to 100 content pages and 2000 catalog items. ecBuilder Pro also
features a built-in shopping cart, banner ads, order desk, catalog
importing/exporting, and integrated SSL security.
In its review, PC/Computing wrote: "If you need a package that really
pays attention to the details of your business, you'll appreciate ecBuilder
Pro 4.0's sophisticated site-building and reporting tools .... The package
walks you through the process of collecting information about your company
with a greater level of control and detail than the competition."
The article went on to describe ecBuilder Pro as both having "a back-end
prowess that's one of a kind," and being "e-commerce software that pays
attention to the details."
"We are honored that PC/Computing, a leading publication, has
distinguished ecBuilder Pro with a four-star rating," says Brent Halverson,
President, Multiactive Software. "Although the best reviews that we receive
come from our satisfied customers, it is great to be recognized by the
industry press as having a top-notch product."
ecBuilder Pro 4.0 is also recognized as the "Best Internet Commerce
Software" solution of 1999 for having won a prestigious Codie Award in March
of this year. Multiactive and ecBuilder beat out major industry players
including Microsoft(R), Adobe Systems(R), and Net Perceptions(R), makers of
the recommendations engine used by giant Internet bookseller Amazon.com(R), to
win the award.
The software is targeted towards small and home-based businesses and
retails for approximately $499. A standard version of ecBuilder is also
available, and it retails for $99. Both software solutions are available for
purchase online. ecBuilder currently has a channel strategy that involves
bundling the product as part of a turnkey e-commerce offering. The small- and
home-based business solution will be co-branded and distributed through a
network of Internet service providers throughout North America.
