We didn’t have an infinite budget, and needed nine eCommerce websites to be developed under tight deadlines,
without compromising on the areas we see as key, namely scalability, rich
functionality, business-user control and, above all the ability to
differentiate and deliver a great customer experience.
SAFE™ and Salmon's track record in delivering eCommerce solutions on
time and on budget helped us decide they were the right partner for us.
During the project they provided us with the perfect approach, a
combination of software, services and consultancy meeting and exceeding
our expectations
Director of eBusiness & IT
SAFE™ was affordable, fast to implement and supported our multiple brands, it’s “out of the box” functionality met all of
our requirements, supporting our on line needs as well as giving us complete
control over our eCommerce environment. We now have a scalable platform in place
that meets our customers’ desires now and will cope with increasing levels of
traffic and our changing business needs in the future

“We needed a solution that was quick to implement, will scale to meet
customer needs as our online business grows and provide all the tools
necessary for online marketing and promotion of our brands. Salmon
introduced their eCommerce framework called SAFE™ (“Salmon
Application Framework for eCommerce”), their eCommerce team
and IBM WebSphere Commerce, and they collectively ticked all the boxes.”
