20 years, a long road travelled
When 20 years ago we wrote the corporate mission statement – ebusiness company open to the world, where we grew up together – little could we have imagined getting this far… ebusiness has become Digital Business, we are still open to the world, and obviously we have grown up together, now that we are 20 years old we can only feel deeply grateful.
Grateful, because we keep the initial illusion intact, we have accumulated a lot of experience, innovation inspires us and our commitment to our client guides us. This is a very important anniversary for us, with many new features that you will soon discover.
For the moment, before looking to the future, we would like to take stock of what 2023 has meant for our company:

For the moment, before looking to the future, we would like to take stock of what 2023 has meant for our company:
1. We facilitate contacts at the Mobile World Congress.
Once again this year we worked for the smooth running of the MWC. Our Lead Retrieval app made it easy to manage contacts before and after the event, just by scanning a QR.
2. Consolidated partners of Akeneo
The French company that manages the eCommerce solution for product catalog management celebrated its 10th anniversary. It also presented Akeneo PIM Flexibility v. 7.0, a new version of its software at Unlock 2023, its annual event.
ASM Web Services is an established Akeneo partner and we continue to train in this technology. For example, Rodrigo País and Valeria Romero obtained a new certification from Akeneo, the “Product Experience Advisor Certification”, which confirms them as experts in Product Experience consulting on the platform.
Although it is a user-friendly platform, its implementation is complex due to the amount of information that must be added and all the actors involved. Successful implementation is based on advice, adapting the product to the specific needs of each client and sector.
3. Implementation of VTEX, new service
In 2023 we have started working with VTEX Spain to implement this digital commerce platform. Our experience in the creation of eCommerce and the advantages offered by VTEX have led us to develop very interesting projects. For example, the new project of Embargos a lo bestia, which combines online and offline stores, and VeryAgro, a company dedicated to revolutionize the way agricultural professionals acquire supplies for which we have created a B2B Marketplace.
VTEX is a SAAS platform, one of its main advantages. Everything is in the cloud and requires no upgrades. In addition, it favors omnichannel, as it allows seamless integration of the offline and online channels and customers get a very satisfactory shopping experience.
4. Record time integration of Werfen and Immucor
In just three weeks, the ASM team achieved data integration between the two companies, which were previously using Office 365. One of Microsoft’s new features was activated and worked very well. This is Cross Tenant Synchronization, which allows synchronizing users from one company with those from the other, so Werfen users enter the Immucor system and vice versa.
5. Application integrated with Akeneo and Cloudinary for Roca.
The goal was to generate the Unified Water Label for their products – the one that identifies water consumption – in a simpler way. A button was created on the Akeneo product page to generate the UWL label.
All you have to do is add the values of a couple of parameters: flow rate and energy consumption. With these data, the application itself generates the label. In addition, it also allows customization of the generated labels. Thus, the manufacturer can add both the brand and the model code to each label and give more information about the product.
6. ASM, supportive and sustainable
This year we have managed to be a little more supportive and sustainable. We have developed a solidarity online store for eshoplidaria.org, we are reforesting the world with Tree-nation, creating forests for our team and for customers to offset the CO2 generated; and we help those who help, the team of Caritas Castelldefels, updating and solving technological and computer problems that arise.
And here we are, ready to eat 2024, with 20 years behind us. Thanks to the team and to all the companies and professionals who have made it possible to get here.
