Integration

KonaKart is designed with integration in mind so it has a wide range of features that make this easy to achieve.

Most businesses will have a number of different systems that are essential to their operations. More often than not these systems will work best if they can communicate with one another without human interactions.

For example, you may wish to take your orders in KonaKart using the web-based store front but then move these orders directly to your warehouse or shipping system for further processing.

KonaKart can be integrated with your other systems and your other systems can integrate with KonaKart.

Industry Standard Integration

One popular interfacing technique that external systems can use to communicate with KonaKart is using KonaKart’s “SOAP web services”. This allows systems written in just about any technology (on any platform) to communicate with KonaKart using industry standard programming techniques.

The SOAP web service interfaces could be used, for example, to update your products offered for sale by KonaKart from another system that holds stock information.

Another use could be to send orders to KonaKart from other systems, perhaps in a BTB environment.

Some integrations are provided “out-of-the-box” such as the integration with Google Base - which allows you to publish your products in Google, and the integration with Open CMS – a popular open source content management system.

Designed for Integration - from the very beginning

There are many examples of how KonaKart can co-operate with other systems in your IT architecture. We expect customers to need to integrate their eCommerce system with their other systems in flexible ways, so KonaKart has been carefully designed from the very beginning to make this easy to achieve.
