2Checkout Recognized on Constellation ShortLists™ for Campaign to Commerce and Smart Services Digital Monetization
Leading analyst firm recommends 2Checkout’s Avangate digital commerce solution for companies in pursuit of digital transformation
ATLANTA, GA - September 5, 2017 - 2Checkout (formerly Avangate), a leader in eCommerce, payments and subscription billing solutions, announces today that its Avangate solution was named to the Q3 2017 Constellation ShortList™ for two categories: Campaign to Commerce and Smart Services Digital Monetization Platforms.
Each Constellation ShortList™ recommends technology vendors to early adopters pursuing digital transformation initiatives. The Campaign to Commerce ShortList™ recognizes that a traditional CRM is insufficient to handle the demands on modern businesses selling online. The 12 companies on the Campaign to Commerce ShortList™ were selected from among more than 50 vendors based on detailed criteria, including multichannel delivery, access for multiple stakeholders, or multi-tenant cloud delivery.
The ShortList™ for Smart Services Digital Monetization Platforms reflects how new digital business models coupled with the subscription economy have created the need for a new type of smart digital billing solutions. The ShortList™ selected 11 vendors from among 20 monetization solutions based on criteria including account management, alerts and notifications, integration, invoicing, and reporting and analytics.
