Integration with Microsoft Dynamics GP
k-eCommerce is very tightly integrated with Microsoft Dynamics® and SAP® Business One.

This means you can make changes to Microsoft Dynamics® and SAP® Business One and all changes are dynamically reflected in the various environments. The result? This architecture greatly simplifies the management and maintenance of your web store and does not require duplications of efforts.
