Taking A Step Ahead In Enhancing Our Solutions
In 2022, we continued working on improving our existing solutions. The quality and functionality of our products improved tremendously in 2022 with many new added benefits. We have updated our connector app and integration solutions, and now they have become even more convenient and faster.
To make multichannel selling simpler and help businesses grow, we’ve added features like analytics, product management, and multi-account connectivity. We’ve also improved our onboarding processes and bulk operations, reducing the time to get listed on marketplaces in minimal time.
New added feature in the apps to streamline further selling cross borders:
Multi-account Connectivity on the “Integration For eBay” app
The multi-account feature in the Shopify-eBay integration app will enable merchants to manage multiple eBay accounts from one centralized dashboard. Merchants can manage more than one eBay seller account from one single app within the same dashboard. So now, you no longer have to switch between apps or accounts to manage multiple eBay accounts. With the “Integration for eBay,” app merchants can continue to list products on eBay from their Shopify store and manage everything smoothly just like before.
Multi-Account Support In Amazon By Cedcommerce
CedCommerce introduced this exciting new feature in the “Amazon by CedCommerce” app. With the multi-account support, you can access as many amazon sellers accounts with a single app, irrespective of the account country. With the addition of “Multi-account support,” you can manage, monitor, and visualize global selling from multiple Amazon seller accounts associated with a single app. So now connect, sync, and automate your business on Amazon in any country with any account via a centralized app.
Ad capabilities & Supplementary Feeds in Facebook & Instagram Shopping App
The “Ads capabilities” feature in the Facebook & Instagram Shopping App enables Shopify merchants to create, manage, and monitor Facebook Ads within the app. Our team of developers came up with this enhancement considering the demand of our merchants. The enhanced ad capabilities will result in better brand building and product discovery to connections already made on Facebook and Instagram.
Moreover, the integration app now allows adding a supplementary feed to the catalog to help online merchants – already selling on Meta commerce platforms – take advantage of their existing items in their catalogs. As a result, you can now enhance your Meta catalogs with additional product attributes by enabling supplementary feed.
Advanced Inventory And Bulk Product Management In Walmart Integration
CedCommerce introduced three new features in the existing Walmart integration app. Namely, Setup by match, Inventory location mapping and Bulk editor. The newly added features further simplify the way you sell on Walmart. You can perform various tasks in bulk, like product import and export, uploading products on the marketplace in one go, and product editing. With the added feature, you can now also match existing products on the Walmart marketplace with your new similar products.
ManoMano Magento Integration
ManoMano launched three new APIs that focus on increasing selling efficiency, improving security, improving customer response time, and much more. So with the same line of thought, CedCommerce reviewed the Mano Mano integration app and launched version 2.0 of “Mano Mano Magento Integration.”
The new upgraded version of the app focuses on increasing selling efficiency with the addition of real-time inventory syncing between the store and marketplace. The speed of data transfer also improved due to the removal of feed. New functionality of bulk action for inventory and price syncing is also added.
There is also a massive improvement in UI making it more convenient to access multiple functionalities. Proper records of product change & syncing will now be maintained and can be accessed with simple filters.
Amazon Magento Integration
Amazon recently ended its MWS API and replaced it with a new SP API. The main motive behind this migration was switching to the next-generation API. It is to encourage merchants to adopt cutting-edge tools and features that will benefit both customers and selling partners.
To help merchants from this sudden shift, CedCommerce also launched its new version of Amazon Magento Integration, which is totally compatible with the latest SP API. Sellers just had to update the app and continue selling effortlessly.
Amazon WooCommerce Integration App Just Got Better
The Amazon Integration for WooCommerce has also been updated in multiple aspects like the addition and enhancement of product template, amazon feed, ASIN update, Setup wizard, and sync settings. The app is built for WooCommerce merchants hoping to sell on Amazon; this integration solution is packed with unbeatable features like Bulk upload, simple category mapping, product feed optimization, order and inventory management, and more.
CedCommerce’s Magic Moment of Networking & Connecting with You
As eCommerce professionals and industry leaders, we always strive to build a network that fosters growth and exposure to opportunities for development.
CedCommerce has always been on the front foot when it comes to connecting and simplifying eCommerce. The feeling of meeting people in person is unmatched. To sum it all up in a phrase, it was MESMERIZING.
Some of the major eCommerce events attended by CedCommerce in 2022:
Shoptalk Europe 2022
Over the last two years, we all have been a part of enough Zoom calls to realize that no virtual event or meeting can match the impact of a real in-person event. Shoptalk is one of the biggest eCommerce conferences in the US. It is one of the largest communities of eCommerce sellers, retail companies, influencers, investors, brands, and startups.
Just the thought of those days brings back the whole excitement and happiness. The atmosphere and the arena impact so differently; we still cannot get over it. After 2 years of the virtual meet, it was wonderful to meet people in person. Our CEO and Co-founders, Mr. Abhishek Jaiswal and Himanshu Rauthan met with merchants, brands, and partners while also exchanging ideas on multichannel capabilities, social commerce growth, commercial advertising, and everything eCommerce.
The conference was insightful, engaging, and full of energy. They also had a great opportunity to meet and reunite with our partners and friends Alan Small from Wish, Lisa Powell from the market, Akhil C from Zoho, Shelley Boyle from ManoMano, and our beloved friend, Roi Elizondo, Alastair Hardie from Tiktok. We also got to interact and socialize with our old friends of the Cdiscount team, Shopify, BigCommerce, Shopware, and the Mirakl team.
Meet Magento India 2022
Meet Magento India 2022 is a virtual gathering of marketers, retailers, and developers. This virtual event, without a doubt, was on par with a live one. It was gratifying to meet the prominent speakers and exchange valuable views. It’s a gathering of professionals with similar interests and mindsets. It is conducted worldwide in more than 40 countries.
The event became more happening for us! As our CEO and co-director, Mr. Abhishek Jaiswal, delivered his keynote: “Multichannel retail strategies to scale your D2C eCommerce business.”
He also enlightened viewers with various marketing strategies, the selection of the right marketplace, and how to set up and manage your listings across multiple marketplaces.
Grow Big Initiative
In order to retool and empower small and medium-sized businesses to get online and start selling across numerous channels and countries, the Grow Big Initiative (GBI) brings together best-in-class industry experts, business leaders, and government officials.
It was delightful to see CedCommerce as we spoke about “Managing inventory and syndicating product listings across multiple online sales channels such as marketplaces, your own website, and social commerce sites.”
The GrowBig Initiative (GBI) brings corporate executives, government representatives, and industry experts to enable stakeholders to increase their online sales across new channels and regions.
SARAL Summit
Our amazing team members Ahmad Mobin Haris & Utkarsh Singh got the opportunity to connect and meet some amazing people and leading companies. They had the chance to speak with some greatest industry experts that are already thriving and winning in the eCommerce arena.
A Sincere Thanks To Our Merchants and Partners
There are very few occasions when we get the opportunity to sincerely thank our merchants and partners who have shown constant trust in CedCommerce.
“Alone we are Strong; Together We are Stronger”
CedCommerce take great pleasure in thanking our partners and merchants who always come back with their feedback and support whenever needed. CedCommerce’s relationship with our merchants & partners is not just official; we are all like an extended family.
Farewell 2022, And Here’s To Welcoming 2023
2022 brought many innovations to CedCommerce to help merchants address the issue, and it also brought more empowerment to knowledge to build the solutions they needed with our no-code and low-code platforms.
These are just the highlights for CedCommerce, and we look forward to more innovation in 2023. CedCommerce’s achievement is not just ours; it’s for everyone, be it our partners, merchants, or employees.
To Sum it all Up, The Year Was just MAGNIFICENT.
