FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Prograde Launches eCommerce Platform Upgrade
Partnership between Prograde and Four51 creates new responsive/mobile
marketing storefront sites
Cincinnati, April 1, 2015: Prograde, a Cincinnati-based marketing logistics company specializing in print
management, integrated marketing, eCommerce, and fulfillment services, has officially launched an upgrade
of Prograde’s current eCommerce platform.
Prograde’s Velocity! marketing portal creates storefronts with a more modern-looking user interface,
completely customizable apps and user experiences, and an improved administrative environment, optimized
for all devices: desktop, tablet, and phone. Velocity! allows users to order more effectively, helps solve
unique client challenges, and accelerates commerce and
order management strategies. Four51 has created the
new platform and Prograde integrates the technology to
solve client challenges.
“Four51's new technology gives us the ability to deliver a
whole new user experience for our customers”, said Mark Hendrickson, Director of Client Service Technology.
“The most significant change for us is the ability to now have access to the coding level allowing our
developers to deliver the technology just as the customer wants it. No matter what the unique workflow is, or
special application needed, we can create a truly custom experience, specifically for that client or user.
Prograde has partnered with Four51 since 1999 to deliver technology solutions, yet we are discovering new ways to
apply the software daily for our client’s benefit.”
“According to Internet Retailer, 56% of those buying from B2B eCommerce
sites frequently use their mobile phones to view those sites. The great thing
about our new OrderCloud™ technology is that existing sites can be
converted to a mobile-friendly, responsive design that is now necessary if
our partners want to keep their buyer clients coming back,” said Mark Johnson, CEO of Four51.
While technology has changed with this upgrade, a lot hasn’t changed. The same, trustworthy infrastructure,
security, reliability, compliance and integration services are still delivered through the Prograde customer
solutions team.
