How many products can I include in my catalogue?
|
You can include as many products as necessary. There is no physical limit to your catalogue. Some of our sites contain more than ten thousand products. Oxatis plans charge dependent on how many products you include in your catalogue.
To offer you the fairest price, it's normal that very large sites pay a little more than smaller sites.

|
What protection does my web site have on Oxatis servers?
|
Our server farm is highly redundant (daily data backup, redundant routers, clustered servers, power supply backup with a 9-day independent run time, air conditioning, etc.), which minimises the risk of equipment failure. The servers are tested every 5 minutes by Keynote-Red Alert, the worldwide leader in website monitoring. Since April 2001, the certified availability rating has been greater than 99.96%.
In addition, we pay the worldwide leader in website security testing (Security Metrics) to ‘attack’ our servers every 15 minutes to make sure they are updated and configured properly to stand up to any possible hacking attacks.

Can I limit the accepted payment amount by credit card if I prefer cheques?
|
|
Of course, you can limit each payment type (credit card, cheques, etc.) by country and by amount. To put it more clearly, you can say that above a certain order amount, you want to wait until you cash the customer cheque before shipping their order or that you don't want to accept credit cards from certain countries.
|
|
|
Can I limit my sales to certain countries?
|
|
Yes, the shipping calculator allows you to organise your sales and shipping fees by country and to exclude certain countries.
|
|
Can customers track their orders directly online without having to send an email or call me?
|
|
The Oxatis system includes a completely configurable order management and tracking module. The order confirmation email can contain a link to a restricted page of your site where each customer can track their orders.

Pricing Plans
|
|
What happens if I need to use more than my plan allowances?
|
|
You can upgrade to a higher price plan at any time as and when your requirements change.
|
|
|
Why do you bill for page views rather than bandwidth?
|
|
We believe that charging for page views is more relevant to the actual site traffic and therefore a fairer way to charge. As a guideline the average web site page size is between 200kb and 300kb so 10,000 page views is the equivalent of between 2GB and 3GB of bandwidth.
|
|
|
Do all plans include all features?
|
|
|
|
What support is included in each plan?
|
|
Expert advice and help is included in all plans both online or via the telephone. Our UK-based support team is available to answer your queries from 9.00am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday.
|
|
|
Can I upgrade from the free trial to a paid plan?
|
|
Yes, you can easily upgrade your free trial to a paid plan and all of your data will remain.
