Question about new Ecommerce features
Hello !
Would anyone please help me with the following questions concerning the Ecommerce features, in order to help me for a new website architecture analysis (using the Professional Edition) ?
- We plan to sell downloadable products only, and your Ecommerce module includes such a possibility. What about using this feature without obliging a customer to create an account (just provide us your first & last name and your email, pay, and we'll display you download links (+ mail including these links). Does this represent much work ?
- We would like to access to a user sales history from an other website, using any kind of remote service (WCF, etc.). Is it possible to setup or develop such a service (which would for exemple return a download links list when requested for a customer email). Does the Sitefinity API provide such posibilities ?
THANK YOU so much for helping me, I would really like my client to use Sitefinity, but I have to be sure that all these features are possible

Hello,
What about using this feature without obliging a customer to create an account (just provide us your first & last name and your email, pay, and we'll display you download links (+ mail including these links). Does this represent much work ?
This is configurable out of the box. No custom code required.
Is it possible to setup or develop such a service (which would for exemple return a download links list when requested for a customer email). Does the Sitefinity API provide such posibilities ?
Yes. But for a web service based (access from another site) you may need to implement your own custom service that wraps the API. The current services are limited to querying, deleting, and modifying sitefinity ecommerce items.
I hope this helps.
I would suggest you http://www.uniecommerce.com/ which has come up with unique features like combining group deals with online auction.
