About Comcation

Market Focus
By combining expertise in network operation, business internet access service, web hosting, application hosting, interactive media, application development, technology systems integration, digital marketing and management consulting into a single company, Comcation has revolutionized the Internet services industry by providing a unified response to the challenges of the digital age.

Founded in 1994, Comcation was a pioneer in the Internet services industry. Comcation provides Internet access and hosting services to thousands of businesses and has produced hundreds of digital business applications for clients worldwide. Comcation develops innovative solutions using a proven methodology to design and implement electronic commerce, digital marketing, knowledge management, and enterprise relationship management applications that transforms companies into world-class e-businesses.

With its offices and data centers located just outside Philadelphia US, Comcation is staffed by professionals spanning the disciplines of business, media, marketing, engineering, network administration, and technology.

E-Commerce Software
Since 1996, Comcation delivered hundreds of e-commerce solutions, many using ShopSite, to merchants throughout the US and worldwide. As online commerce grew, it became evident that many successful stores required advanced functionality to satisfy growing sales volume and containment of costs. Some customers were swamped with manual processing of increasing sales levels. Other customers needed to find ways to automate functions to improve customer service."

In 1999, Comcation set out to develop advanced e-commerce functionality applications. Building upon an enterprise level e-commerce platform used for high-end e-commerce sites, Comcation created modules that could be integrated with various shopping cart software including ShopSite. The goal was to build modular software that could be configured, adapted and customized to add whatever e-commerce functionality is missing from a store's core shopping cart software. By the end of 1999, Comcation's first e-commerce modules were released. Since then merchants using shopping cart software such as ShopSite now have a way to add advanced e-commerce functionality without having to change to expensive e-commerce software used by large online stores.

Building upon its in-house expertise in e-commerce software, in 2001 Comcation purchased ownership rights to high-end e-commerce software from a failed dot.com software developer. The software, now called the Comcation Commerce Server, is a Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) application. J2EE leverages the power of open standards to build, expand, and maintain commerce applications for the full life cycle of the business. The software has been designed from the ground up to be fully J2EE-compliant, unlike other commerce servers that attempt to bolt on J2EE as an afterthought. Comcation Commerce Server keeps sites flexible and adaptable they be optimized to react quickly to changing market conditions. The standards-based Comcation E-Commerce Server keeps businesses from getting locked into proprietary applications, and provides a lower total cost of ownership with solutions that utilize widely available IT resources and it is easier to integrate with external systems.
