This short, 2 minute overview will help position StoreFlow and uStore NG.
StoreFlow is self-hosted and you are in control. Add as many stores as you need, for as many clients or projects that you want. There's no additional cost per product or store. It becomes part of your eco-system and ensures optimal JDF job ticketing, delivery, and MIS integration.
StoreFlow isn't just a web-to-print product; it's an eCommerce platform built on top of XMPie's award-winning platform for personalization, omnichannel campaign automation. The opportunities go way beyond just selling customizable print online!
End-users can easily upload and order their own static documents, or select and order variable documents from a storefront catalog. Both variable and static pages can also be used within the same document, enabling a rich set of products from flyers and brochures, to booklets and more.
StoreFlow web-to-print software includes Xerox® FreeFlow® Core, for store administrators to define multi-step workflows that preflight documents, automate imposition, and either submit jobs directly to your digital press or drop in a hot folder - everything that is needed to efficiently prepare and process Web-to-print jobs for production.
uStore 10 brings to the market not just a new version but an entirely new way of working. uStore Next Generation (NG) Technology supports a new storefront experience which follows the latest trends: it is fully responsive and designed to optimize user experience and interactivity.
StoreFlow comes with a brand new theme,
AquaBlue, and contains a new
homepage, new header and footer areas, a
new category page, and new beautiful
navigation area.
The new storefront experience is available
for stores which are assigned the new store
type – uStore NG.
Customize the look & feel of a uStore NG
store to fit your desired branding in seconds with the new
WYSIWYG theme editor.
You have full control over the design elements
such as fonts, colors, and images. You can
preview constant changes and then publish
to the online store when ready.
uStore NG introduces a new frontend technology which gives you the freedom to craft the shopping experience by enhancing it with new content and functionality.
Each product category in a uStore NG store can be assigned an image. These images are presented in the homepage and throughout the navigation.
“XMPie PersonalEffect StoreFlow gives us everything we need in a web-to-print system. We didn’t need countless add-ons or extra development time to tailor the system to fit our needs. For us, it was critical to have an all-in-one system that could simplify existing workflow processes, support growing business needs, have constantly evolving functionality, and that seamlessly integrates with Adobe InDesign and our MIS system. XMPie’s solution does all of that, and so much more.”
"I have been using XMPie software for 11 years and it is no exaggeration to say that it has revolutionized my business. In this day and age print providers can’t survive anymore by simply offering basic print services. Without XMPie we wouldn’t be able to compete in this ever-evolving market."
“This is the future for us small printers, there’s no question. XMPie has completely transformed the way we do business and we’re not even touching the cross media side of things yet. This is the way forward.”
“[Using XMPie] has opened the floodgates and drawn orders in other areas of our business”
With uStore NG and the new theme editor theming stores and portals just got much more accessible. Every store can be assigned its own theme, and each store's theme can be changed in a myriad of different ways. Changing colors, typography settings and logos it just a click away, and all accessible within the online editor.
Modifying or adding the theme's CSS can be done directly from the editor, as can adding in your own custom CSS. All changes can be previewed immediately before making them live in a store.
Using this uStore NG, you can quickly obtain a store’s HTML and code files, and add new content, behaviors, features, and even flows. With a store's code you can start to make integral changes, like including marketing content to the homepage, replacing the banner with a slider or adding new static pages. This technology uses ReactJS, one of the industry-leading technology for web development.
uStore NG themes are developed locally in a development environment using standard web programming tools, without affecting the production environment. Because of the open nature of the theme and its support for industry standards, any skilled web designer/programmer can immediately start to modify or create themes. Themes can then quickly be deployed to a uStore production server when needed.
With this ability to get into the depths of a store's theme it is now possible to create stores and portals that are unlike any other. Want to create a secure store, that plays a personalized video for the user upon logging in? Now, this is possible with uStore NG.
Xerox® FreeFlow® Core is included within StoreFlow enabling lights out automation. Watch this short video to understand how FreeFlow Core can help automate the tasks associated with getting files ready to print.
StoreFlow works in harmony with XMPie's production platform so not only can configurable, or personalized print documents be created, but you can also offer entire multichannel campaigns to be configured and sold.
