Sell and Manage Digital Assets
Digital Assets System Management for Your Cuesta Built or 3rd Party Online Catalog
Even if your online catalog was not built by Cuesta, we can help your visitors purchase and have access to your digital products and services.  Of course, if your Web site is developed by Cuesta, this module is a valuable option.

Cuesta’s Digital Assets Management Module Can Handle a Variety of Formats including:
  • Streaming video
  • PowerPoint Presentations
  • Archives
  • E-Books
  • PDFs


Digital products can be hosted on your Website server or a 3rd-party's server.  Because they are part of the online catalog, users can find digital products using the online catalog's search and browse mechanisms.  Users order digital products via the shopping cart, just as they do when ordering physical products.  Digital and physical products can be combined and purchased together in the same shopping cart and are available to the customer immediately upon submission of their order.

Users who purchase digital assets or subscriptions will have access to an area on the site call “My Online Content” where they can organize their digital/subscription orders for easy viewing.

The system can also allow users to purchase electronic books in a number of proprietary formats from other Web sites.  The user will be redirected to the host site to complete the purchase.  Formats can include:
  • Apple iBooks and other items available only from iTunes
  • Amazon.com Kindle Books
  • Barnes & Noble Nook Books
  • Google Books


Subscription Services

The Digital Assets Subscription system allows our clients to provide digital products and services as either free or fee-based subscriptions.  The Website manager can set the pricing and start/end date for each type of subscription.  The system will automatically notify customers who have subscriptions nearing their expiration date, giving them instructions for renewing subscriptions before they expire. Subscriptions can optionally be set to “never expire.”

The Digital Assets Management system includes a back-end Content Management System that lets Website administrators manage users’ media and subscriptions.  Administrators can extend subscription dates, terminate subscriptions, and add digital assets to the users’ accounts.

The system provides Web site activity reporting that includes such information as:
  • Top Media files viewed/downloaded
  • Media files viewed/downloaded by Media Type
  • Media items purchased
  • Clicks to digital products on other Web sites

Client History: Mondo Publishing - www.MondoPub.com
Mondo came to Cuesta back in 2001 with high anxiety about selecting a new Web developer.



They had history with a previous developer who simply could not keep up with their needs and eventually left Web development for another career, which left them hanging in the lurch.  Their first concern was to find a developer who was respected in the publishing industry, one who could keep up with emerging trends and most importantly, one who would be around for many years to come.  By then, Cuesta had been in business for nearly 10 years, and we had worked with some of the biggest names in the industry.  The launch of Mondo's first Cuesta-built site was a great success and stood the test of time. When they came to us nearly 10 years later with a concept for a new design and a desire to add features and functionality for products that didn't exist back in the day, we were able to change the look, feel and functionality without having to redevelop the site.
