Microsoft Commerce Server

Commerce Server 2007 is Microsoft’s premier server for creating e-commerce solutions, building on over 10 years of innovation and success.
E-commerce sites are today more dynamic than ever. Therefore, it is not enough to just build a great site; constant maintenance, updates and fine-tuning are required to ensure highest performance and return on investment. Specifically, Commerce Server 2007 will help business users with the following tasks:

• Manage Customers & Orders, Catalog & Inventory and Marketing, through new Windows-based applications. By using the familiar look and feel of Microsoft Windows, with task-based interfaces and wizards to simplify complex tasks, these tools help business users achieve shorter turnaround times, lower maintenance costs, and make easy site updates and fine-tuning, helping to increase revenue.
• Advanced Reports and Analytics expose business intelligence and data mining from multiple information sources, including click stream usage, visitor browse history, campaign effectiveness, and purchasing patterns. Based on SQL Server Reporting Services, users enjoy full life cycle management–including authoring, scheduling, versioning, taking data snapshots, access controls, and rendering.
