CSI Media offer full browser testing

Do you know which browsers your customers are using? Have you considered full browser testing your website?

Recently Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox 3.5 have been released. When prompted, many people will automatically click to update their browsers.

Here at CSI Media, since 1st July, we have already seen a massive change in browser usage, with over 50% of all Internet Explorer users actually using the latest IE8 to view our website. Firefox is becoming increasingly popular with some online businesses reporting that more than a quarter of customers use Firefox as their primary browser.

Also, don't forget that some websites and online services are phasing out support for older browsers encouraging people to upgrade to the latest browsers such as IE8 and Firefox 3.5.

A study carried out by CSI Media on July and August 2009 visitors, concludes that Internet Explorer is still the most popular browser its visitors use, followed by Firefox. Ancillary websites also see this same pattern. (Click image to zoom)

When we drill down, we can see that a majority of the Internet Explorer users that visited CSI Media used the recently released IE8, whereas IE7 was more popular for our ancillary websites.

Firefox 3.0 was the most popular version of Firefox being used; however, the newly released Firefox 3.5 is quickly catching up. (Click image to zoom)

Fight the credit crunch with CSI Media's new initiative

CSI Media are helping the travel industry to fight the credit crunch by introducing a new initiative on its travel technology products. This will allow companies to purchase travel products via manageable monthly payments.

It is also available on Travelberry Tour Op, a complete solution for all travel businesses which allows them to package their own stock with third party products online. Travelberry Tour Op also has a detailed financial reporting facility and an integrated call centre solution.

The new initiative will allow companies to buy a Travelmodule website from just £6 per day*, a Travelberry system from £13 per day* and a full Travelberry Tour Op solution from £40 per day*.

Further tour operator system developments

CSI Media has introduced a number of enhancements to its tour operator software. The tour operator system already allows tour operators, low cost airlines, flight companies and bed stock companies to merge their own stock with third party products and sell them as package holidays or in any combination of components.

The latest changes to the tour operator software mean that focus is no longer just on traditional package suppliers, but is an ideal solution for providers of coach tours and also operators offering excursions and attraction tickets.

Richard Nash, Business Director of CSI Media said “We understand that tour operators need a competitive edge in order to stay ahead in a challenging marketplace, and this has driven our constant investment and development of this area of the business. We also realise that flying is not the only form of holiday travel. Our main aim with our tour operator software is to make it as accessible as possible to many different travel markets.

We are currently working with quite a few operators and expect to see a number of website launches over the next few months.”
