Customers can now research and purchase products in one place
Minneapolis, MN—Wednesday, June 2, 2004 … Comtrol Corporation, a leading provider of serial device integration technology, announced today the launch of its new Internet retail store, which provides customers with the ability to research product capabilities and purchase them immediately from Comtrol—24 hours per day.The new store, located at www.shopcomtrol.com , offers the full range of Comtrol’s products, including flagship brands such as RocketPort® multiport serial cards, DeviceMaster® serial device servers, and RocketModem® multimodem cards.
The e-store will soon also host the Comtrol Clearance Center, where customers can find new overstock, discontinued, and refurbished product for sale at significantly reduced prices.Orders received through the new e-store will be electronically transmitted to established Comtrol distribution partners who will ship product from their inventory. Using this approach prevents channel conflict while leveraging the PC distributors’ state-of-the-art fulfillment centers. “Our new Internet store in no way diminishes our commitment to our distribution partners,” remarked Lee Stagni, president and COO of Comtrol.
