Being a store owner, you put lots of efforts for creating an ultimate buying experience for your customers. So, here comes the Advanced Notification add-on for your CS-Cart store which boosts the customer experience with its opulent notifications feature and sends notifications in users account on storefront itself for various events like order status change, shipment creation etc.
