LogicBoxes Announces Vertical Integration Solutions for New gTLDs

Integrate-Vertically

LogicBoxes, the developer of OrderBox , a Registrar automation product currently used by over 100 ICANN Accredited Registrars, announced the launch of a new solution, ‘Integrate Vertically’, tailored to meet the needs of New gTLD operators.

The solution is meant for those New gTLD operators that wish to set-up a Registrar subsidiary to distribute their TLDs to resellers, end-customers or internal users, without depending exclusively on existing Registrars.

“The electric fence that divided registry and registrar operations since 1999 has been torn down. gTLDs will soon out-number the active Registrars but their shelf space will be very limited. Incumbent Registrars will not be able to focus on all gTLDs as they do today. New gTLD operators need to plan their distribution strategy and evaluate the need to setup a registrar subsidiary” said Sandeep Ramchandani, Business Head of LogicBoxes.

The solution consists of a comprehensive package which offers consultancy to take New gTLD bidders through the ICANN Registrar Accreditation process, front-end and back-end registrar software set-up (using OrderBox), process and compliance management (to ensure that all clients are prepared to manage Registrar functions), and even includes white-labeled end-customer support. Once integrated, all New gTLD clients will be in an advantageous position to channel their string to LogicBoxes’ existing base of 100+ Registrars and 100,000+ Resellers.

The TLD is currently in the Sunrise phase which will last upto the 8th of Feb, 2013. One of the unique things about their Sunrise is the fact that a brand can apply for variations in its Trademark while paying just a single application fee.

OrderBox CSV Reports

Here’s another update from the OrderBox side of things: We’ve completely revamped the way reports are handled in the system and have created an improved Reporting Module.

We’ve gone back to the drawing board to completely re-think the flow of data and usability for this new module.

And one of the biggest features of this module is that Registrars and Resellers can now export data from the system in .CSV format.

The reports available are:

  1. Balance Reports
  2. Contact Details
  3. Customer Details
  4. Forex Report
  5. Payment Gateway Report
  6. Product Orders – Digital Certificates
  7. Product Orders – Domains
  8. Product Orders – Web Services
  9. Product Orders – Multi Domain Hosting
  10. Product Orders – Reseller Hosting
  11. Receipt Report
  12. Reseller Details
  13. Sales Report
  14. Tax Report
  15. Transactions with Customers
  16. Transactions with Parent Reseller
  17. Transactions with Sub-Reseller

The above data will help Registrars and Resellers get a much better (and factual) grip on their day-to-day business numbers and help them make strategic decisions for their future activities.

This is just the first revamp phase of the Reporting module. In the coming months, we are planning to add more enhancements and increase the functionality for this module. More updates to follow soon!
