"Avangate service portfolio is built on the one-stop-shop business model which means that our clients can find in it all the necessary tools to grow their software sales." explains Laurentiu Ghenciu, Sales Manager at Avangate. "We know what software vendors need: e-commerce platforms with added tools that encourage sales and bring in money, better search engine positioning, more visitors and higher conversion rates. We are now presenting at CEBIT a new commercial offer built to perfectly match the needs of each company at the three main stages in a business - start-up, SMB, and Enterprise," adds Laurentiu.

The Avangate Reseller Management System, launched in 2006 as myAvangate, has been re-branded as ARMS, a name that matches the powerful and reliable tool it has become now.
