Testimonials & Reviews "SpaceWorks Web BusinessManager Suite … provides the enterprise with a comprehensive self-service e-Commerce application infrastructure — and the functionality to evolve the business process underlying the selling proposition." "As America's businesses look to the future of electronic commerce, they need to be assured of a solution that can move with them … into the next millennium and beyond. SpaceWorks OrderManager … fully meets this demand and serves as a prime example of a truly forward-marching electronic commerce application." 
"SpaceWorks … has taken on a sound strategy of concentrating on developing core functionality in-house and partnering with specialized vendors for value-added products. Maintaining this strategy and building out the Web BusinessManager Suite provides an attractive, comprehensive product offering." "SpaceWorks continues to round out a strong offering through partnerships and developments." 
"SpaceWorks' aggressive adoption of J2EE will further enhance the long-term viability and flexibility of its product." 
"SpaceWorks Web BusinessManager Suite reinforces the trend toward offering pre-integrated suites that perform most of the back-end functions of an e-commerce site."  "While many companies recognize the need for supply chain automation via the Web, they are faced with build-or-buy decisions in establishing such a Web presence. SpaceWorks provides a viable out-of-the-box solution for building and maintaining a Web-based relationship with trading partners." "There are business-to-business (B2B) specialists - including SpaceWorks - that specialize in the commercial applications demanded in B2B transactions, such as collaborative engineering, back-end and e-marketplace integration." "Enterprises whose sole perspective on e-commerce is that of selling products to businesses instead of consumers should invest in a sell-side platform that is optimized for such sales. [...] Substantial differences in selling perspectives - such as the ability to support automated B2B commerce, to shift massive volumes of goods, and to deal in multiple parameter negotiations - may require specialized technology to execute." "By far, the most critical element of Internet commerce is the sell-side platform. To develop a robust, future resistant commerce strategy, enterprises must invest in one of them. [...] Marketplaces need sellers to survive, and we are seeing the first signs of sell-side commerce platforms connecting directly to marketplaces. [...] Enterprises must establish a route to a single e-commerce sell-side platform for direct, marketplace, and indirect sales by 2003." "Vendors must be able to execute today as well as possess a vision for B2B customer segments ... Catalogs need to provide custom views of catalog based on access control and parametric search for the serious business buyer … Back-end access and full support of EDI formats are required as well."
"The SpaceWorks application is designed to automate all aspects of ordering as a strategic business process, including marketing and selling, order tracking and fulfillment, and supporting a community of trading partners." "SpaceWorks has all the right stuff for many mainstream customers right now — those companies that are looking for an industrial strength solution and that are attracted to a turnkey application." 
"SpaceWorks was B2B before anyone even knew what the term stood for.

"SpaceWorks is well-positioned to transfer its ability to rapidly implement successful B2B e-Commerce sites within the Global 2000 — to the emerging e-marketplace sector." "Solutions from vendors such as SpaceWorks enable a Web storefront to present, configure, and price according to customer history or specifications." — Fulfillment the Key to B2B Supply Chain Success.
