Importing of Product images, Title & Descriptions etc. into CloudMT
Neil McQuillan - CEO Citrus-Lime
We've got a good relationship with Jonathan at Turbo MT and his product is far better than something we could create inhouse, its worth a look.
We are focused on new backoffice and new workshop. The number of requests for import tools for Cloud MT is quite low, which is why we've been happy to work with Turbo MT to create a great product.
You can bulk export items to Excel, modify them, set or alter facets and reimport them. It's really popular with a handful of our customers.

Neil McQuillan - CEO Citrus-Lime Do you know how you will decide what functionality to develop inhouse for the benefit of all (that we are already paying for) and what you will outsource as an optional extra cost to us?
Neil McQuillan - CEO Citrus-Lime
Lyndon Hollands It largely comes down to demand and the resourcing requirements inhouse.
For example if, as we have done, we put resource into the new backoffice that brings productivity gains to thousands of users, we estimate this saves 15 minutes time per user per day so there is a real return for all our customers.
More niche functionality we are happy for partners to innovate and present products on the Cloud POS Marketplace.
There isn't really a hard and fast rule, but import/export is asked for by a handful or power users, and TurboMT's product is far better than something we could have produced inhouse with its Excel driven import/export and use of the API to retrieve and allow you to set facets in Excel. If we'd done something it would have been simple and CSV based.
The product is worth a whirl if you have a lot of batch changes to make its really cool.
