LogicBoxes Announces Automation Software for ICANN Accredited Registrars
LogicBoxes (www.logicboxes.com),
a division of Directi (www.directi.com), a
leading Web Services provider, announced today its flagship Product facilitating
Business Process Automation of ICANN Accredited Registrars. The Product –
OrderBox, is the ONLY TRUE multi-level Reseller Product designed from ground up
to automate the business of an ICANN Accredited Registrar, and is currently
powering ICANN Accredited Registrars such as Directi.com, Signdomains.com and
several others currently in the pipeline.
OrderBox offers the most advanced feature set available to Domain Registrars
today – with Infinite-Level branded Reseller functionality, Multi-platform API,
Multi-Lingual Control Panels for Resellers and Customers, Payment Gateway
Integration, Billing and Payment Collection modules, Comprehensive set of TLDs,
allied Services such as Domain Forwarding, Mail Forwarding, DNS and much more.
“There are over 180 ICANN Accredited Registrars worldwide and the competition is
stiff,” according to Bhavin Turakhia, CEO Directi, “The top ten Registrars offer
a slew of features and services which make it difficult for the upcoming
Registrars to compete. OrderBox offers a ZERO Investment, ZERO Risk, tried and
tested platform for ICANN Accredited Registrars to compete on a global scale
with the larger Registrars, with a competing set of Products, Services and
features for their Customers and Resellers.”
LogicBoxes also offers consulting services to aspiring ICANN Accredited
Registrars for obtaining ICANN Accreditation. In most cases, ICANN Accreditation
processes take a long time for applicants, due to lack of information and
improper/incomplete applications, requiring multiple iterations. LogicBoxes cuts
down that time by almost 50% and assists aspiring applicants in preparing the
application, liasioning with ICANN, and post-accreditation deployment of the
OrderBox Suite to facilitate complete automation of all business processes.
“OrderBox represents over 400 man-months of development,” says Bhavin Turakhia,
“We have a 25 people development team, continuously working on adding newer
features and Products to the OrderBox. It is not possible for any single ICANN
Accredited Registrar to make investments of this scale. We spread the cost of
this development across multiple Registrars thus offering the benefits at a cost
less than 1/8th of what it would cost to build and manage the system themselves”
As an ICANN Accredited Registrar there are numerous compliances to be followed.
These include WDRP, UDRP, WHOIS accuracy etc. The OrderBox streamlines all of
these compliances into automated workflows. Additionally with the OrderBox, a
Registrar is buying into a tried and tested, continuously growing, and
functional platform for Domain Registration and allied services. The OrderBox
system is currently managing thousands of names and requests on a daily basis,
and in its current architecture is easily capable of scaling to millions of
requests.
Pricing and Availability:
The OrderBox is priced more as a Cost Reduction exercise than as a Product
purchase. The are no upfront fees or recurring fees. OrderBox is offered as a Hosted Solution to Registrars for a flat rate
of only 20 cents per Domain year.
