3. Why is the connection between UltraCart and Ontraport important? (When does Ontraport recommend UltraCart?)

While Ontraport offers order forms for single products, some of our clients require a powerful shopping cart such as UltraCart. For example, detailed product attributes such as different colors and sizes, multiple international currencies, as well as more robust shopping cart features, including inventory management, backorders, fulfillment, etc., are essential to keep up with your rate of sales. The integration between the two is easy to set up, and all purchases in UltraCart are logged and tracked in Ontraport so that you can run automation based off of them.
