Patchworks launches new tools for e-commerce brands: Connector Builder, Connector Marketplace and Process Flows
Patchworks has launched the latest additions to its integration platform as a service (iPaaS) – Connector Builder, Connector Marketplace and pre-built Process Flows which enable e-commerce brands to customise their own integrations.
Patchworks, a recent member of the MACH Alliance, says that, with Connector Marketplace, its library of pre-built connectors, teams with minimal tech expertise can integrate best-of-breed applications quickly and easily with the click of a button.
Connector Builder enables brands or agencies to automate, streamline, and grow their operation by building bespoke connectors for systems and Process Flows allows merchants to connect their systems together through drag and drop process workflows by connecting together ‘shapes’ in sequence.
This platform release builds upon the foundations released last year, the aim of which was to allow customers to take more control over their integrations.
The new Connector Builder tool allows brands to connect any system, even if it’s not currently available in the Connector Marketplace.
It connects merchants to any system with an API and these systems are then choreographed through the new feature Process Flows.
This is designed to automate and streamline system integrations, allowing teams to add and manage all process flows from one central location.
Jim Herbert, CEO at Patchworks, says: “We know that merchants are under pressure to do more with less, and need more flexibility and agility.”
“This is why we’re empowering users with the skills to connect and integrate through our no-code/low-code platform. If a system isn’t in our marketplace, a merchant’s tech team can use connector builder to create a new connector in minutes, and use process flows to orchestrate the data process through Patchworks through our best-in-class user experience.”
“With ease of use, open connectivity, and the ability to progressively scale from non-technical staff through to developers with our custom scripting shapes, Patchworks should be a merchant’s first choice for integrating systems.”
Conor Barr, Chief Product Officer at Patchworks, says: “The release of Connector Builder and Process Flows is the perfect blend of outstanding user experience, making it as easy as possible to integrate systems together, and the completion of our MACH Alliance certified architecture.”
“Building on micro-services means our merchants will benefit from a constant release of new features, and the reliability, security and automatic scaling of our cloud partners Amazon Web Services.”
“Our product team has delivered a platform that supports simple no-code integrations, and low-code with our “custom scripting” feature for developers. I’m proud to see their hard work pay off.”
