Additionally, Episerver will present "Engaging digital experiences for omni-channel retail in the cloud" on Monday, Jan. 18 at 3:30 p.m. ET at the Microsoft Theater Stage in the Microsoft Booth (#2803). Episerver, with co-presenters from partner Avensia and retailer customer Clas Ohlson, will speak on how to solve the omni-channel puzzle with the Episerver Digital Experience Cloud™ on top of Microsoft AX for retail business logic, and how this supports seamlessly integrated engaging customer experiences with Point of Sale (POS), eCommerce and customer service.

Episerver has seen growing adoption by leading retailers as the industry continues to experience a growing shift towards web-based retail transactions fueling retail salesi.

According to the Forrester Research report, "While total retail sales are growing at a low-single digit rate (if at all), the retail eCommerce world promises to continue growing at a double-digit clip for the next several years. Consumers increasingly have a 'web first' mentality in their shopping journeys: They begin their research online, supplement their research with web resources, and often complete transactions online."  

Episerver, which supports a broad range of global retailers – from auto maker Mazda to general gift merchant Mud Pie – leverages the flexibility and accessibilityof the cloud to help businesses respond to this growing demand for a dynamic digital experience.
