The FSIAB team spends a lot of time both talking to and listening to real florists to truly understand your needs and make sure that we can offer the best florist ecommerce software in the world without a shadow of a doubt.

This is one of the largest updates we have done and allows you to manage your florist business to a far more detailed level to maximise your sales and profitability.

Some of these are already available in your dashboard and you can use them immediately, most of the others require that we update your website software.
