Before licensing Pageflex Storefront, OTC Systems utilized a web-to-print solution they developed themselves. With this solution, they were able provide highly customized business-to-business solutions for their clients in a remotely hosted environment. As they looked to expand their services, OTC Systems chose Pageflex Storefront as a way to supplement their current web-to-print solution and easily expand their services into the consumer market. Pageflex Storefront includes robust e-commerce tools - like shopping carts, skinning and integrated e-commerce features - that enable OTC Systems to quickly and easily deploy sites geared toward consumers.
Tim Graham, president of OTC Systems, commented by saying, "Our platform has been anchored by Pageflex Server from the beginning, so it only made sense to add Storefront to our solution, as we were looking for ways to harness our rapid growth in the business-to-consumer marketplace. Storefront will ensure that our clients using our remote hosted platform are on the cutting edge."
Using Pageflex as a technology base, OTC Systems developed their marketing portal which gives their customers a place to manage and develop variable marketing programs using personalized URLs, dynamic imagery, on-line editing, web-to-print outputs, integrated postage, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), corporate data analytics, production automation, and more - all on-line in an easy to use interface.

Anna Chagnon, Bitstream President and CEO, said, "OTC Systems has a proven track record of using Pageflex technology to create innovative solutions for their clients. We saw that last year when they won a Pageflex Customer Innovation Award from us. We saw it in the way in they used Pageflex to create their innovative marketing portal to meet the marketing needs of the auto dealers.
