LinuxNews.com: OpenSales to Zelerate into New Development Innovation

[ Thanks to mhead for this link. ]

"The company formerly known as OpenSales is accelerating its e-commerce applications development into high gear with a unique targeted open source development system and some formidable new concepts in e-commerce software architecture."

"Zelerate, based in San Mateo, Calif. and founded under the name OpenSales in 1998, provides e-commerce software through an open source development model. The name change was meant to prevent the misconception that OpenSales is a sales-force automation company or a direct-sales firm, says Bonnie Crater, Zelerate CEO. The company decided to 'change to a new brand that will allow us the flexibility to develop that brand as a leading e-commerce company,' she adds...."

"Zelerate AllCommerce, the company's flagship product, is freely available through the developer site, Zelerate.org. Zelerate involves open source developers to promote innovation and to roll new features, requested by customers or suggested by developers, into upcoming releases quickly, Crater says."
