Using Microsoft ASP.NET, AJAX, and FLEX Platforms

Your customer will never thank you for using technology that maximizes their experience on your website. In fact, they probably don’t even know it’s there, but they are sure to let you know if your site is too slow. Chances are, if your ecommerce site has a slow response rate, you’re losing customers. What’s worse is that they are probably going to your competition. With InsiteCommerce, you can be confident that your site will respond quickly to your customers’ requests and keep them on your site. Built on Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 and 3.5 as well as using AJAX technology, InsiteCommerce provides the fastest response rates available on the web.

What are Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5, AJAX, and FLEX Technologies?

Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5 is the predominant web development tool used in the industry and is the power behind your InsiteCommerce website. It enhances the functionality of your site’s design and allows integration to your back end ERP or accounting software.

AJAX , or Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, is a programming language that creates faster and more user-friendly website applications that has been embraced by search engines such as Google. The best way to demonstrate what AJAX does for you is by example: If a customer adds an item to a shopping cart in an older technology, they need to wait for the entire webpage to refresh in order to show the change. If your customer has a slow internet connection, this may cause the customer to lose interest and close your site or redirect to a competitor’s site. With an InsiteCommerce site, because we use AJAX technology, the customer has a very different experience. They add an item to their shopping cart and AJAX allows the cart to refresh without having to reload the entire page. Response is immediate, your customer is happier, and you have a better chance of getting their business.

FLEX is an open source framework for building expressive web applications that deploy consistently on all major browsers, desktops, and operating systems by leveraging the Adobe® Flash® Player and Adobe AIR® runtimes.
