Miva Merchant 5.5 Update Is Coming!

Major improvements to version 5 yet again establishes Miva Merchant as the best-of-breed e-commerce platform

San Diego, CA, 08 April 2008

Dear Fellow Miva Merchant,

The new Miva Merchant 5.5 administration interface In a few short weeks, we will be streaming out the new 5.5 update to Miva Merchant 5. This is an important milestone for us since acquiring Miva Merchant some 8 months ago and I wanted to share a few highlights with you.

First off, this is a major improvement to version 5 that will yet again establish Miva Merchant as the best-of-breed e-commerce platform–bar none. Here are just a few of the most noteworthy improvements:

• A far more intuitive Admin interface that focuses on click-efficiency and adds many conveniences, such as the new launchpad function
• Seamless import/export of all of your items and pages to/from Dreamweaver™
• Built-in SEO features including full control of your DOCTYPE, Product, and Category Metatags, and search-friendly links
• The ability switch between the default MMUI framework to our new skin-able CSS framework. This feature is currently in a public beta download and will ship about 30 days after 5.5

Most importantly, nothing you are doing now as a 5 storeowner will be negatively impacted by the new release, which was one of our driving principles. You’ll be right at home as soon as you update to the new product, and start benefitting from it immediately.

I want to personally thank you for your commitment to Miva Merchant and I’m confident that all of the hard work of our staff will show up in a better store for you, our valued clients.

Best Wishes,
Russell W. Carroll, CEO
