Actinic 10 is now released

admin — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 11:58:38 +0000

Actinic 10 was released today, and with it comes 4 distinct new features over the last version.

Realtime Stock Control
Recently Viewed Items
A Streamlined Checkout Procedure
Customer Feedback

1: Realtime Stock Control

With Realtime Stock Control, the stock figures you set will decrease online when some one buys a product from you, and will instantly hide a product when its stock hits 0.

In previous Actinic’s Stock Control was handled on the download and upload of the site, therefore you could be out of stock of a product but the website would not know that.

If you work with Actinic and especially deal with stock, 10 is for you.

2: Recently Viewed Items

Hot off the heals of the Also Bought Items, Best Selling Items and Related Items (introduced in Actinic , Now comes Recently Viewed Items.

Anyone who has visited Amazon, Play, most modern eccomerce sites will be familiar with a box that lists the items you just looked at. It is a quick and easy way to navigate back to products you have previosly looked at.

Also a welcome addition to Actinic.

3: The Streamlined Checkout

Actinic’s checkout procedure prior to Actinic 10 involved a slightly confusing checkout which required you to place your shipping details on multiple pages, for example the first step would be to choose your country then on the next page place your address details.

The Streamlined Checkout in Actinic 10 has reduced actincs side of the checkout procedure to 4 distinct steps

The 4 checkout are : Address, Shipping and Tax, Confirmation and Tax ,Reciept and Email

With the Streamlined Checkout, Customers should be able to order easier from your site and not get confused within the checkout process.

4: Customer Feedback

Actinic 10 has built in compatablility with FeeFo. Feefo is a online site that gathers feedback from your customers.

According to feefo, their system is similar to the Feedback system as seen at online sites such as Ebay.

The Feefo system however is not free. See FeeFo for more details.
